Portland House, Belmont Business Park, Durham, DH1 1TW
The most recent insolvency notice for Bede Group Investments Limited is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 16 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case CR-2026-006997 of 2026). The petition was listed to be heard on 28 October 2026 at 1030 hours — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. 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?
Falling margins, stretched creditors, overdue filings and HMRC arrears usually appear months before a Gazette notice. Directors who act at that stage keep far more options open, from an informal turnaround to a CVA or restructuring plan.
