NOTICE TO CREDITORS OF AN INSOLVENT COMPANY REGARDING THE RE-USE OF A PROHIBITED NAME

CAMBRIDGE KITCHENS LIMITED

04687294

Trading Name: Cambridge Kitchens & Bathrooms

Registered office: The Town Hall Burnley Road, Padiham, Burnley, BB12 8BS

Principal trading address: 297 Mill Road, Cambridge, CB1 3DF

On 17 January 2025, the above-named Company went into liquidation.

We, Dylan Wade-Gledhill and Sarah Wade-Gledhill, both of Saxon Farm, Longmeadow, Lode, Cambridge, CB25 9HA, were directors of the above-named Company during the 12 months ending with the day before it went into liquidation. We hereby give notice to the creditors of the Company that it is our intention to act in all or any of the ways specified in section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986, in connection with, or for the purposes of, carrying on the whole or substantially the whole of the business of the insolvent company, under the following name:

Cambridge Kitchens / Cambridge Crafted Kitchens / Cambridge Crafted Kitchens and Interiors

It should be noted that we would not otherwise be permitted to undertake those activities without the leave of the Court, or the application of an exception created by the Insolvency Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986. Breach of the prohibition created by section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 is a criminal offence.

Section 216(3) of the Insolvency Act 1986 lists the activities that a director of a company that has gone into insolvent liquidation may not undertake unless the Court gives permission or there is an exception in the Insolvency Rules made under the Insolvency Act 1986. (This includes the exceptions in Part 22 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016.) These activities are:

(a) Acting as a director of another company that is known by a name which is either the same as a name used by the company in insolvent liquidation in the 12 months before it entered liquidation or is so similar as to suggest an association with that company;

(b) Directly or indirectly being concerned or taking part in the promotion, formation or management of any such company; or

(c) Directly or indirectly being concerned in the carrying on of a business otherwise than through a company under a name of the kind mentioned in (a) above.

The notice is given under rule 22.4 of the Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 where the business of a company which is in, or may go into, insolvent liquidation is, or is to be, carried on otherwise than by the company in liquidation with the involvement of a director of that company and under the same or similar name to that of that company.

The purpose of giving this notice is to permit the director to act in these circumstances where the company enters (or has entered) insolvent liquidation without the director committing a criminal offence and in the case of the carrying on of the business through another company, being personally liable for that company’s debts.

Notice may be given where the person giving the notice is already the director of a company which proposes to adopt a prohibited name.
