What happens when a company goes into administration?
When a company enters administration, it means that it is unable to pay expenses, debts, or other liabilities, according to SquareUp.com.
Companies House adds: “When a company goes into administration, they have entered a legal process (under the Insolvency Act 1986) with the aim of achieving one of the statutory objectives of an administration. This may be to rescue a viable business that is insolvent due to cashflow problems.
“An appointment of an administrator (a licensed insolvency practitioner) will be made by directors, a creditor or the court to fulfil the administration process.”
A statutory moratorium is put in place once a company enters administration, giving it “breathing space” to allow for financial restructuring plans to be drawn up free from creditor enforcement actions.
A company can continue to trade while in administration, but daily management and control are handed over to the administrators.
Companies House continues: “Within 8 weeks it is the administrators’ role to formulate administration proposals.
“Creditors are then asked to vote by a decision procedure to approve the administrators’ proposals.
“If the administration involves a sale of all or part of the company’s business, the proceeds (after the costs of the procedure) will be distributed to creditors in a statutory order of priority.”
Administration will end automatically after 12 months unless the administrator asks the court or creditors for an extension.
Through administration, a company can be:
- Rescued and passed back to the directors
- Enter liquidation
- Be dissolved
Other UK companies that have closed or entered administration/liquidation in 2026
It has been a tough year for the UK high street, with several other retailers entering administration or liquidation and others announcing widespread store closures.
Major high street brands LK Bennett, Claire’s, and Quiz have been forced to close all their remaining stores after falling into administration.
UK fashion retailer Leading Labels is also set to close its remaining 15 stores after falling into liquidation.
TG Jones will be closing 150 stores across the UK as part of a “restructuring” plan approved by the High Court on Wednesday (July 1).

Luxury UK holiday company Salamander Voyages shut down back in April after entering administration.
Meanwhile, four UK airlines have fallen into administration or liquidation:
UK delivery company Yodel is set to be phased out over the coming months after being acquired by InPost.
It’s also been reported that Morrisons is looking to sell some of its in-store pharmacies as it continues to cut costs.
It hasn’t all been bad news for the UK high street, with several major brands announcing new store openings for 2026, including Aldi, M&S, and Superdrug.
Plus-size clothing brand Evans also returned to the UK high street recently after closing all its stores and concessions in December 2020.

Another Cambridgeshire district is set to benefit from weekly food waste collections
Another Cambridgeshire district will soon benefit from food waste bins. In June, food waste collections began across East Cambridgeshire.
Residents across Fenland will soon be able to recycle their food waste too, with new caddies being delivered from next Monday (July 13). It will take around six weeks for all households to get their new caddies, and then weekly food waste collections will begin from Monday, September 7.
Councillor Steve Tierney, Fenland District Council’s portfolio holder for waste and recycling said: “We already have a fantastic waste and recycling service here in Fenland, and these new food waste collections will make it even better.
“Around a third of the waste that currently goes in our green bins is food waste – much of which can be recycled. By introducing free weekly collections, we’re not only meeting national legislation, but helping people recycle their food waste in an environmentally friendly way while freeing up space in their green bins.
“The service is completely optional too. Residents can decide whether to take part, but we’re confident everyone will enjoy the benefits. An information leaflet will be included in the food waste caddies to help people understand the new service and there’s lots of information on our website too.”
More than 90,000 caddies will be delivered to over 45,000 homes across the district from next week. Each household will receive a five litre indoor caddy; a roll of caddy liners; a larger 23 litre outdoor caddy; and an instruction leaflet.
The first phase of caddy deliveries are set to be completed by the end of August. Residents can start to fill their caddies on the week commencing August 31.
In December 2023, Carr was sentenced to nine years in jail for allowing her daughter’s death and to six years in jail for child cruelty. The two sentences are to run together, so the maximum she could serve is nine years.
In April 2025, the Court of Appeal agreed that this sentence was not unduly harsh.
However, due to the overcrowded nature of Britain’s prison, the 2026 Sentencing Act allowed prisoners not convicted of murder or violent sexual offences to be released having served just a third of their sentences as long as they had shown good behaviour and would not pose a risk to the public.
It is generally understood that the government had to do something to alleviate the problem of overcrowded prisons in the short term before more cells could be built, and early release was therefore a solution.
But the public imagined it would apply to petty criminals who had managed to kick their drug habit and so stood a chance in the outside world when released early.
Carr did not kill little Maya – her partner, Michael Daymond was found guilty of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 20 years – but child cruelty and permitting the death cannot surely be viewed as crimes that are suitable for the earliest possible release? What does that suggest about the value of Maya’s life?
The penal system should not be vindictive against offenders, but, equally, it should not inflict distress upon the families of victims. The Ministry of Justice really should think long and hard before embarking on a route that is bound to do so.
Lionel Scaloni’s side needed an 111th-minute own goal in Miami to prevent being taken to a penalty shootout by the tournament’s surprise package amid a slew of injury issues, having twice been pegged back following goals by Messi and Lisandro Martinez. Argentina will be desperate to bounce back and reassert some authority here as they make three changes, with Nicolas Tagliafico, Leandro Paredes and Julian Alvarez all coming in.
In the US, one social enterprise hires newly arrived refugees to make sustainable candles, helping them earn money, practise English and build an employment record
When Maguno arrived in Olympia, Washington, in 2023 with two of her adult sons, after fleeing war in the Congo and spending 30 years in a refugee camp in Tanzania, she was not only starting again. One of the first things she wanted to do was pay back the travel loan that had helped bring her family to the US.
Like many refugees resettled in the US, she was expected to repay the cost of those flights after arrival. For Maguno, clearing the debt meant work, income and proof of independence in a country where newly arrived refugees can find themselves shut out by language barriers, missing references and no local employment record.
That chance came from Relume, an artisan candle company in Olympia, where resettled refugees are paid to hand-pour sustainable candles while practising English and building the kind of work history that can help them move through the US jobs market.
“Work is necessary because it is how you get food, pay for housing, and live until you pay the bills,” Maguno tells Positive news. “Work is good for a human being. When you are healthy you must work.”
With her wages from Relume, she has now paid off the loan that helped bring her family to the US. Repaying it, she said, felt like honouring the chance she had been given.
“I feel like I’m being honest, that is why I paid off the loan with them from America,” she said.
Relume was founded by friends Rand Roedell and Karima Bassalé after they saw newly arrived refugees in the Pacific Northwest struggling to find work. Many had the will and the need to earn, but applications stalled when employers asked for fluent English, US experience, local references or simply felt unsure about hiring someone who had only recently arrived.
“The language barrier was a huge component for people not getting hired,” said Bassalé. “We witnessed translators being pulled last minute from interviews, after working tirelessly to find one. There was also the component of the unknown, people weren’t willing to take a risk on hiring someone who had newly arrived in the country, and I’m not certain as to why.
“But these people are our friends, we know them, and hiring them has been a great joy for us.”

Candles were a practical answer to a practical problem. The work can be taught on the job, does not require fluent English or a formal education, and gives people the chance to learn while earning.
“Making candles does not require proficiency in English, nor does it require a formal education,” said Bassalé. “Creating this business was also a way for other people in the community to get involved. Often, we feel helpless when people in positions of authority make decisions that negatively impact certain people groups, but buying a candle is something people can do to help become a part of the solution.”
Relume’s candles are made with soy wax from US-grown soybeans, phthalate-free fragrances and cotton wicks free from zinc and lead, then poured into recycled Spanish glass jars designed to be reused. The product has to be good enough to stand on its own, but the way it is made is what gives the business its purpose.
Eiman, another Relume candlemaker, was born in Syria and fled with her family to Jordan after war broke out when she was 10. In December 2024, she arrived in the US with her husband, Tarek, and their two young sons, beginning again in a place where ordinary tasks could feel difficult before language, work and community began to fall into place.
“At first it was difficult, we didn’t know anyone here, nor did we speak the language well. The future was uncertain – we didn’t know where to go or what to do – but we faced all the challenges and now we are doing very well.
“Relying on myself, interacting more with people, gaining a better understanding of the language, and earning money have all empowered me,” she said.

Volunteers come into the candle shop to teach English on work days, with the candlemakers paid for that time, while families also gather for meals, helping make the business feel less like a temporary fix and more like a community.
“The team takes ownership of the candle shop, they have a strong sense of belonging with the larger Relume community as well,” said Bassalé. “One day, we would love to serve as a reference for them as they grow beyond Relume.”
From its workshop in Olympia, Relume now ships candles to customers across 40 US states, according to the company. Its growth suggests that people are willing to buy from businesses where the human story is part of the product, as long as the product itself is worth buying.
For Bassalé, Maguno repaying her travel loan gave the founders a sharper sense of what steady work can unlock.
“It was joyous and emotional when we learned she paid off her travel loan debt,” said Bassalé. “We learned how important her financial independence was to her. It made me realize that there’s restoration that takes place within a person, when they can work, particularly if they have been unable to for decades due to their circumstance, which was no fault of their own.”
Maguno’s loan is now paid, Eiman says she feels more able to rely on herself, and Bassalé hopes Relume can one day be the reference that helps someone move into their next job. For a small candle company, that is a useful kind of light to be making.

Tim Henman wants to see Wimbledon scrap a controversial rule following Arthur Fery’s memorable victory over Grigor Dimitrov.
After what was a hugely disappointing first week for the Brits, Fery gave the home fans plenty to cheer for after punching his ticket to the quarter-finals at the All England Club.
The 23-year-old wildcard prevailed in a final-set tie-break against Dimitrov and will now face ninth seed Flavio Cobolli for a place in the final four.
In a topsy-turvy encounter on Centre Court, it was Fery who took the opening set before being pegged to one set all by Dimitrov.
The Brit then opted for a take a toilet break to change his clothes, which players are allowed to do twice during a five-set encounter.
Usually, a player is allowed three mintues for a toilet break, but that is extended to five minutes if they are also changing clothes.
These limits are designed to prevent tactical delays, but Henman suggested that amount of time is still excessive and risks ruining the momentum of a match.
‘Once you get to the area that you’re going to change your clothes, you get five minutes,’ Henman said while on commentary for the BBC.
‘There’s a couple of little changing options just behind those doubles doors behind Centre Court.
‘For me it’s a break that you’d like to get rid of, but unfortunately if it’s a bathroom break, or playing in these hot climates around, which you’d probably put London into it now, I think you’ve always got to give the players that opportunity.
‘But it does disrupt the rhythm, and therefore the momentum of these matches sometimes.’
Henman’s comments surrounding toilet breaks have been far from the only topic of disccussion when it comes to tennis’ rules at Grand Slams.
Speaking earlier in the week, third seed Felix Auger-Aliassime urged governing bodies to change the ‘disgraceful’ rule surrounding medical timeouts.
‘I think the [medical timeout] rule has to change,’ he said after his win over Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
‘I think that, obviously, as long as the rule is like that, a player will use it to their advantage.
‘I think that it’s very simple. If you’re hurt bad, or whatever you’re hurt, while the game’s going on of your opponent, in the middle of the game, the opponent is serving, the shot clock is on, basically when you’re hurt bad, you’re forfeiting every point until you can call the physio.
‘If the physio helps you recover, you play your service game. If you’re hurt bad, then you retire, obviously.
‘But to stop in the middle of an opponent’s service game, and to be able to call the physio, I think that’s a disgrace of a rule.
‘I don’t see any other sport where you can do that. I mark my words. It’s a disgrace of a rule. So that’s it.’

Lionel Messi broke down with tears of joy after Argentina survived a major World Cup scare to advance to the quarter-finals.
The reigning champions looked set to be dumped out at the last 16 stage when they were trailing Egypt 2-0 with 12 minutes left in the second half.
However, in one of the great comebacks in World Cup history, they scored three goals in 13 minutes to stun Egypt and set up a quarter-final showdown with either Switzerland or Colombia on Sunday, 2am (BST).
And as Argentina celebrated at the full-time whistle, Messi cried tears of joy and relief that his World Cup will continue into the weekend.
Messi was hugged by several of his team-mates – as an outpouring of emotion came out from the Argentina squad.
ITV pundits Roy Keane and Gary Neville were quick to react to the scenes unfolding from the Atlanta Stadium.

Keane concurred, saying: ‘My voice is gone. I loved it. Yesterday [Tuesday] we saw sad tears from [Cristiano] Ronaldo. Today we see happy tears from Messi.
‘They [Argentina] will not give up. The quality of their goals were amazing. Wow. This is why we love the game. Absolutely amazing.’
