J&M Healthcare Limited faces a winding-up petition
Active Company no. 12201974 Incorporated Sep 2019 Health & Social Care PE postcode area
216 Stuart House, St Johns Street, Peterborough, PE1 5DD
The most recent insolvency notice for J&M Healthcare Limited is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 17 July 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case CR-2026-004577 of 2026). The petition was listed to be heard on 29 July 2026 at 1030 hours — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 September 2025, showed total assets of £120k and net assets of £14k. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.
HMRC is the petitioning creditor, so the debt behind the petition is unpaid tax — most often VAT, PAYE or corporation tax — rather than a trade debt. HMRC petitions usually follow a long run of missed payments and ignored demands.

Is your own business showing the same warning signs?
