The most recent insolvency notice for Laygate Events Ltd is a Winding up order (Companies), published 25 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holder is S Brindley, appointed 16 September 2026. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case No 005311 of 2026). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2025, showed total assets of £1 and net assets of £1.
