Steve Kenny and Richard Cole of KBL Advisory Limited were appointed joint liquidators to AVL Technologies Ltd on 15 June 2026, placing the Knaresborough-based wired telecommunications business into creditors' voluntary liquidation.
A creditors' voluntary liquidation, or CVL, is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order. The appointment was made by members and creditors, according to the notice published in the London Gazette on 22 June 2026.
The company
AVL Technologies Ltd was incorporated on 20 January 2016 and carried out wired telecommunications activities from its registered address at 8 Park Grove, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire. The company filed its last accounts to 31 January 2025 as a micro-entity. Following the appointment, the registered office moves to c/o KBL Advisory Limited, Building 5, Carrwood Park, Selby Road, Leeds.
The liquidators
Kenny holds IP number 24030 and is based at KBL Advisory Limited's Leeds office at Building 5, Carrwood Park, Selby Road, Leeds. Cole holds IP number 26070 and operates from KBL Advisory Ltd's office at Stamford House, Northenden Road, Sale, Cheshire. An IP number is the licence number issued by an insolvency practitioner's recognised professional body, identifying the individual practitioner.
The two act as joint liquidators, meaning either can generally act alone unless the appointment specifies otherwise. A liquidator is the licensed insolvency practitioner who realises the company's assets and distributes the proceeds to creditors during a liquidation.
The directors
Peter Michael Hudspeth and Andrew Alexander Wyatt have both served as directors of AVL Technologies Ltd since incorporation on 20 January 2016. Neither has a resignation date on record at Companies House, so both remain current directors at the time of the liquidation notice.
Secured charges
No secured charges are registered against AVL Technologies Ltd at Companies House. Unsecured creditors are those whose debts are not backed by a charge over the company's assets, and they form the pool of claimants in this liquidation. A proof of debt is the formal claim form a creditor submits to the liquidator evidencing the amount owed, used to assess and rank claims before any distributions are made.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Avl Technologies Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Avl Technologies Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Avl Technologies Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Avl Technologies Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
