facility.  The strike rate of the cap as at 31 December 2017 was 1.75%   
 which caps the Group's cost of borrowing at 3.35% on the hedged notional 
 amount.It is the Group's target to hedge at least 60% of the Group's     
 total debt at any time using interest rate derivatives.In accordance with 
 the Group's treasury risk policy, the Group applies cash flow hedge      
 accounting in partially hedging the interest rate risks arising on its   
 variable rate linked loans. Changes in the fair values of derivatives    
 that are designated as cash flow hedges and are effective are recognised 
 directly in the cash flow hedge reserve and included in other            
 comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness that may arise in this hedge   
 relationship will be included in profit or loss. The interest rate       
 derivative valuation is classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy 
 as defined in IFRS 13.

 Share allotments and other movements in relation to the capital of the Company in the 
 period:                                                                              
 On incorporation the Company issued 1 ordinary share of one pence which was fully    
 paid up and 50,000 redeemable preference shares of £1 each which were paid up to one 
 quarter of their nominal value. Both of these share classes were issued to Atrato    
 Capital Limited (see note 19). On 18 July 2017 the Directors resolved to redeem the  
 50,000 redeemable preference shares.                                                 
 On 16 June 2017, the Board approved a proposed placing and offer for subscription    
 (together the 'Placing').  It was intended that the ordinary shares of the Company to 
 be issued as a result of the Placing would be admitted to trading on the Specialist  
 Fund Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange ('Admission').          
 On 18 July 2017, the Company issued 100 million ordinary shares of one pence each at 
 a price of £1 per share, raising gross proceeds from the Placing of £100 million.    
 Admission subsequently took place on 21 July 2017. The consideration received in     
 excess of the par value of the ordinary shares issued, net of total capitalised issue 
 costs, of £96.9 million was credited to the share premium reserve.                   
 Following a successful application to the High Court and lodgement of the Company's  
 statement of capital with the Registrar of Companies, the Company was permitted to   
 reduce the capital of the Company by an amount of £30 million. This was effected on 7 
 September 2017 by a transfer of that amount from the share premium reserve to the    
 capital reduction reserve. The capital reduction reserve is classed as a             
 distributable reserve and dividends paid by the Company are currently being offset   
 against this reserve.
