The Annual Report of the Trustees of the League of Friends of Tewkesbury Hospital.
Introduction
2022 saw the effective end of the global pandemic (in terms of protocols and testing), though it certainly has left its mark on the NHS. The Local hospital beds have been used for supporting these issues, with the hospital providing extra space and beds when required. The hospital space has been used to maximum capacity, but still with some shortened hours in the out of hours department.
Overview
From a financial perspective, the Friends of Tewkesbury hospital were incredibly fortunate to receive another bequest left in a will. We continue to be thought of favourably in the work we do, because of the excellent work of the staff at the hospital who care for the patients in an outstanding way. The work of the friends during 2022 has been to get funding back on track and to optimise the services of healthcare in the hospital and the community
Activities
Our activities this year were limited to meetings only. We performed no physical fund-raising activities but relied on donations and existing funds to perform our activities. Those who worked with the charity had limited time and new volunteers and trustees are being sought. Expenditure
Our donations this year were in support of the acupuncture clinic, which continues to be a success in the community as well as induvial items which are listed on the website. We have now started spending in a bit more detail and have some large items planned for the end of the year.
Conclusion
The year has been one of continued challenge, but much progress has been made in updating services and equipment at the hospital. We have been proud to support the local hospital and Doctors in the issues they have had to face and to safeguard funds for future use.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Tewkesbury Hospital Friends (Charity number 1013759).
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on the attached accounts.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider than an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to: Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; To follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act;
And to state whether particular matter have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiners report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: to keep accounting records in accordance with section 30 of the 2011 Act; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
