MARY ANN EVANS HOSPICE CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 As I was appointed Chairman in Sapiember 2023, thls report covers my first full financial year in the role and l am pleased to presènt the 2024 Annual Accounts for the AGM. The Accounts reflèct another good outcome from a very challenging year. We began the year antlclpating a substantial deficit for 2024. However, the superb work of our siaff, volunteers and fundraisers enabled us to minimise tha deficit and maintain all of our services. Like last year, we ow8 a hug8 'thank you" to everyone involved. Howaver, 2025 look$ even more challenging, as life continues to be difficult for hospice fundlng. Hospice UK, the natlonal charity which supports hospices. continues lo lobby Parliament for a natlonal plan to en5ur8 the rlght funding flows lo hospices. This has produced some short-term impact, with a £100 million allocation over fyvo finanual years, but classed as 'capttal' 8UPPOrt rather than 'revenue' (and so it has to spent on equipment or buildings, rather than servlce runnlng costs). We have been notified of our first allocation., more will follow later in 2025. However. the entlre hosplce movement slill needs help wlth a truly suslalnable hospice funding model in the longer term. Untll th18 natlonal plcture change8, le$8 than one quarter of Mary Ann's flnandal resourcès wlll come from the NHS, meaning that we are hLJgely dependent upon the Support of our shops, and our generous sponsors and ndraisers. This Sncome generation IS Teflected in the A¢￿Unts and remains a continuing challenge, as we aim to malntaln and build upon the gxcellgnt Services provlded. Despite these challenges. all of the staff, volunteers and trustees of Mary Ann remain highly committed to serving our communitl8s In northern WarwiGkshire. Our staff and servlce volunteers continue to provlde high quality, essentlal and rnuch-valued s8rvlc8S to pallènts, service-u8ers and familles. In 2025, we will continue to build upon and develop our close working with our users, communitles, NHS partners and commissioners and we wlll Continue to develop further our partnership worklng. mutual Support and collaboration wrth the other Hospic&s In Warwlckshire. During 2024, we had a number of ehanges within the Board of Trustees. Our long-servlng and hlghly r88pected olleague Heather Norgrove sadly passed away, and we saw the resignations of valued colleagues Chrls Bartup and Clare McKenzie. However, we were able to recruit Iwo excellenl new Trustees in Anita Wilson and Bary Blakeman. I remain very honoured to $8rv8 88 Ch8lr of thi8 great organisation, and l am very proud of ev8ryon8 who works for and supports Mary Ann. Tog8ther, l am sure that we can rise to the challenges before us and contlnue lo provide quality Services and Bupport to those who need us the most. Chalr of t Board Dated.. 19 June 2025

Inve•tmont Pollcy Statement The Board of Trustees are responsible for setting the Investment poll¢y and follow the Charity Commission guldance as sèt out in CC14 'charfti8s and Investment matt•rs: a gulde for trustee4' and In ovArdance with the principles set out In the Trustee Act 2000.

The Investment Policy (2025) States that the Chartiy Fund through which the Hospice inve5t8 will not invest In companl8s whos8 prfmary business is producing or manufacturing tobacco. The Charity Fund ha8 a firm wide restriction on investing directly in cluster munitions and anti-personnel land mines,. they also monitor any potential indirert exposure lo this on an ongoing basis. The fund is managed for charities, by charity specialists, who are also trustees themselves. As such they are very aware of what issues can bè contentious for charities. For instan&9, while there is no hard restriGtion on gamblSng. it is unlikely that this is a s8Ctor that would be invested In wKhln the fund due to the negatlve social aspeds. They have a strong responsible investment framework for all investments. This does not n8C8ssarily restrict particular actNities, but it aims to hold companiés and fund managers to account in tems of their consideration of Envlronmental, Social and Governance issues (ESG). The main form of financial risk, relating to Investm8nts, is the volatilty In equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic Gonditions. the attitudes of investors to investment rlsk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities and within sectors or subsèctors.

Because of the inherent limilations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularltie8, including those leading lo a m8teria5 misstatement in the financial statements or non-complian￿ with regulation. This risk incr8ases the more that compllance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial stataments, as we will be less Ilk8ly to become aware of instances of non-compllanc8. The risk Is also greater regarding irregulariti8s occurring dua to fraud rather than effor, as fraud involves intentional concealment. forgery. .collusion, omission, or misrepresentation.
