## **BATH GENERAL PRACTICE EDUCATION AND RESEARCH TRUST** 

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Objects and activities of the charity** 

## _**The purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document**_ 

BGPERT works “... for the advancement of continuing professional development through medical education for General Practitioners, GP trainees, and allied GP staff including Practice Nurses, to promote the highest level of care delivery to their patients, through updates and knowledge of the latest evidence and guidance for treatment and patient care, and to disseminate information amongst the medical profession in the Bath Health District and elsewhere for such purpose.” 

## _**The main activities undertaken in relation to those purposes during the year**_ 

Since the closure of of the RNHRD at the 'Mineral Hospital' in the centre of Bath, and subsequent move to a new purpose-built unit at the RUH Bath site, we have relocated accordingly, and now have offices in the Wolfson Centre in the RUH, shared with two other charities. 

BGPERT provides around 40 continuing education events each year helping GPs and other health professionals to maintain their awareness and understanding of current treatment and care options, to enhance their referral practice and self-awareness of their professional practice. 

The programme is built upon members’ learning needs as evidenced by delegate feedback, event evaluation, liaison with speakers, consultants and other relevant professionals, and the summarised outcomes of appraisals.  Frequently developed in collaboration with other educational providers the events are delivered in a variety of formats including online delivery via webinars, at different times of the week, at venues around BGPERT’s geographical patch, and designed to encourage reflective practice. 

In addition to providing access to copies of speakers’ presentations the BGPERT website points members to other educational and information resources. 

BGPERT actively liaises with other EPOs and educational providers, and entities relevant to BGPERT’s purpose, e.g., local Clinical Commissioning Groups, Community Education provider Networks, other health care providers, e.g., Sirona, BEMS and other professions relevant to health and well being, e.g., police, alcohol and drug abuse services, social care. 

All of BGPERT’s activities are quality assured through active participation in the appropriate Severn School of Primary Care’s processes. 

## _**The main activities undertaken during the year to further the charity's purpose for the public benefit**_ 

By helping to ensure GPs and other members of the primary care workforce are professionally up to date and self-aware about their practice, BGPERT plays a significant role in enabling GPs to deliver the best treatment and care options for their patients. This also helps ensure value for money on behalf of the NHS. 

The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in managing the activities of the charity.

## **BATH GENERAL PRACTICE EDUCATION AND RESEARCH TRUST** 

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year** 

BGPERT’s main achievements were as follows. 

Offering 36 continuing education events primarily for GPs to meet their learning needs as outlined above. 

Aiming to run on a break-even basis. 

Delivering the above programme in a cost effective manner, keeping membership fees unchanged since 2012, through effective cost-management and a successful sponsorship application programme. 

Please note this financial year was during the Covid 19 Pandemic.  This had a massive impact on the Charity in relation to our ability to continue to provide education events and opportunities, particularly as sponsorship, making up around a third of our working income, all but stopped due to Covid restrictions; we were no longer able to provide face to face meetings or events, which have made up the majority of our education delivery to date; and our small team of seven all balance their roles at BGPERT with other often full-time jobs, most involved in some way with the NHS, representing a huge challenge to balance priorities.  These also included developing and managing the rapid evolution of BGPERT to deliver exclusively online education opportunities to our members, on a much tighter budget, with less time available to the team as above, and in the knowledge that education during the pandemic was critical for our members to keep up to date with a rapidly changing pandemic, let alone continuing to deliver our normal programme covering the breadth of medical education/safeguarding training etc that was still required to facilitate optimal non-Covid-related care to our patients in parallel to pandemic related activity. 

We sought and secured alternative sponsorship opportunities, helping to balance costs of events, and successfully applied for a Covid Support Grant from Abbvie, for which we were most grateful, adding £5,000 to again help balance outgoing costs, and minimise the impact of the above changes and challenges. 

## _**The difference the charity's performance during the year has made to the beneficiaries of the charity**_ 

As outlined above, BGPERT has helped its members and other health professionals maintain their professional knowledge and skills, and professional self-awareness, complementing the other educational opportunities open to GPs, e.g., on-line learning and reading. 

## _**The degree to which the achievements and performance during the year have benefited wider society**_ 

Society, including the economy have benefitted from having an up to date, and therefore more effective, primary care workforce. 

## **Structure, governance and management of the charity** 

## _**The methods used to recruit and appoint new charity trustees**_ 

As set out in the Declaration of Trust, membership of Trustees is defined only in terms of a miniumum of four persons. Given the role of the Trust to advance and promote continuing medical education for General Practitioners in the Bath clinical area, membership has sought to include practising GPs, their associates, trainees etc from across the area.

## **BATH GENERAL PRACTICE EDUCATION AND RESEARCH TRUST** 

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of  the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . 

In particular, charity law requires the Trustees, if they prepare accounts on an accruals basis, to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to :- 

- to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate 

to presume that the charity will continue in business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of 

recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material 

departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with regulations made under the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. 

This report was approved by the board of trustees on 8 November 2021.

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charity on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charity on pages 7 to 16 for the year ended 31 March 2021 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and  with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) adapted to meet the needs of unincorporated organisations,  as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),  published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 9. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report** 

As described on page 4, you, the charity's Trustees, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. 

The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of  Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the Governing Document for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act; 

- b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under s145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination.  An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity  and of the accounting systems employed by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the Trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries and does not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide 

Consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. 

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion** 

Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, I have completed my examination: and can confirm that:- 

This  is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act  and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; 

and that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:- 

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by  with Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011; 

the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

6 



## **BATH GENERAL PRACTICE EDUCATION AND RESEARCH TRUST** 

the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; 

have not been prepared in accordance with  the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Policies relating to the production of the accounts**_ 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),  in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice. 

## **Going Concern** 

Under 3.38 and to comply with 3.14, if there are no uncertainties about going concern this MUST be stated. Under 3.39, if there are uncertainties details must be given. Enter text here to comply 

Suggested normal text (whioch may require modification to meet the circumstances):- 

The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing grant aid and voluntary donations as well as trading revenues. As a consequence, the going concern basis is dependent on the future flow of these uncertain funding streams. Accordingly, the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods to 31  March 2021, the Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is  appropriate  to adopt the going concern  basis in preparing  the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Risks and future assumptions** 

The charity is a public benefit entity. 

## _**Policies relating to categories of income and income recognition**_ 

## **Membership subscriptions** 

The income and any associated Gift Aid or other tax refund from a membership subscription received by the charity in the nature of a gift, is accounted for on the same basis as a donation. 

The income from a membership subscription received by the charity where the subscription purchases the right to services or benefits is recognised as income from charitable activities. 

## _**Policies relating to expenditure on goods and services provided to the charity**_ 

## **Recognition of liabilities and expenditure** 

A liability, and the related expenditure, is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliably estimated. 

Liabilities arising from future funding commitments and constructive obligations, including performance related grants, where the timing or the amount of the future expenditure required to settle the  obligation are uncertain, give rise to a provision in the accounts, which is reviewed at the accounting year end. The provision is increased to reflect any increases in liabilities, and is decreased by the utilisation of any provision within the period, and reversed if any provision is no longer required. These movements are charged or credited to the respective funds and activities to which the provision relates.

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## _**Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters**_ 

## _**Tangible fixed assets**_ 

Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition. 

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives. 

Fixtures and fittings 15 % reducing balance Computer equipment 25 % reducing balance Equipment 25 % reducing balance 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date. 

## **Financial instruments including cash and bank balances**

## **Fund Accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. 

There are no designated funds. 

There are no restricted funds. 

There are no endowment funds. 

## **2 Liability to taxation** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity** 

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity. 

## **4 Significance of financial instruments to the charity's position** 

There are no significant implications of financial instruments to the charity's position.
