REPORT & UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

THE FRIENDS OF CHELSEA & WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL CHAIR’S REPORT FOR 2023

Introduction

2023 was a special year for the Friends as we celebrated 30 years of our commitment to supporting patients and staff at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital, which also marked its 30[th] anniversary this year. Throughout our history we have provided funding for many essential services and we will continue to do so in the years to come. In May 2023 there was a special celebration event for all the staff, including a sponsored abseil down the side of the hospital. We were represented at this event by none other than our intrepid librarian Richard Rooney, who raised over £600.

For us 2023 was a year of consolidation as well as celebration, seeing us bolstering up our volunteering services and grant giving. Working at the same time to bring in new Trustees, Lucy and I have continued to interview prospective candidates, several of whom have since been appointed to the Management Committee. You can read more about this in the Trustee News section below.

We have also continued to fundraise throughout the year, but unfortunately for a number of reasons we were unable to hold any major events. However our valuable weekly book and bric à brac sales have gone from strength to strength thanks to the wonderful donations we continue to receive on a regular basis, and also our fantastic team of volunteers that turn up week after week to help on the stalls. Our Christmas events really helped boost our fundraising towards the end of the year, with the Fair, Christmas card sales and raffle raising more than £7,000 between them. Apart from our regular team it was lovely to have the support of past Committee members and volunteers who returned to help out.

We are in a strong organisational position going into 2024, and with a bigger Trustee team bringing new skills we hope to build on this through larger fundraising events, as well as attracting new members and supporters.

Our Services

We are proud of the increasing number of services we provide to the hospital’s patients and staff. Our reputation in the hospital continues to grow as people learn about our work, both through word of mouth through and our own publicity.

As most of you are aware our hair stylist Emma Montalto joined us towards the end of 2022. I am pleased to say that the salon is still thriving, and Emma is extremely popular with the patients and staff. We have had wonderful validations from many of her clients, not only praising her talent as a hairdresser, but also her warm and caring manner, especially to our patients.

It is hard to believe that our Lunch Trolley service in partnership with B Bagel has been running for over a year. So great is the demand by the staff who are too busy to leave their wards that we have had to increase the service from three to five days a week. Nicolas Dreyfus, who came up with the idea for the Lunch Trolley, has done a wonderful job in continuing to manage the service and oversee our excellent team of volunteers.

Trustee News

Trustee recruitment was again a priority in 2023 and we welcomed two new Trustees, Tom Brown and Becky Riffel, to Committee at the AGM on 17[th] May. I am delighted to say that two more new Trustees – Beata Kivinen and Elaine Pinkster – will be joining us at the 2024 AGM,

Page 1

both of whom will bring valuable skills and experience to the Committee. I look forward to working with them.

Grants

In October 2023 the Friends announced a joint grants programme with the hospital’s larger charity, CW Plus, for projects between £2,000 and £10,000 that will help staff deliver better patient experience and care. Grants made under the scheme in 2023 included £5,800 towards the refurbishment of the relatives’ room on Osterley Ward at West Middlesex, and £2,300 for a specialist Barton wheelchair for transporting critically ill patients in intensive care.

We are excited to be working more closely with CW Plus on our joint goal of improving the hospital experience for patients and staff. We were also pleased in 2023 to donate £50,000 to their ‘Best For You’ project, a transformative new way of delivering mental health services for young people which will combine physical and mental health care across digital, community, day, and inpatient settings. The digital and day services are already up and running, and the inpatient unit (for which our funds are earmarked) is due to open at the end of 2024.

The Friends also continued to make independent grants in 2023, including £250 to Children’s Music Therapy for a three-quarter sized cello, and £4,200 to the Palliative Care team for butterfly-motif bags to store the property of patients who have passed away.

Also in October 2023, following a request from the Trust’s Volunteering Department, the Friends agreed to fund the post of Butterfly Volunteer Manager for one year. Amber Lyseight was appointed to the role and will oversee and recruit the Trust’s Butterfly Volunteer team, who are trained to assist patients at the end of life and their families. We are proud to be continuing our support for the Trust’s end-of-life care services which began with the Butterfly Rooms.

Staff and Volunteers

Richard and Lucy have continued to work tirelessly throughout the year, strengthening our relationship with the hospital and managing our day-to-day activities. Lucy is continually improving our communications networks, with ever-increasing numbers following our work on social media sites and our own website. Richard constantly comes up with new ideas for improving our regular book and bric à brac sales, and the quality of the donations we receive is now exceptionally high.

Our volunteer team continued to grow in 2023, with new recruits for the Library Trolley and Lunch Trolley. We are so grateful to all our new and existing volunteers, without whose support we would be unable to run the increasing number of services we provide. A special mention must go to our Shop Trolley volunteer Prashant Nagpal, who in 2023 received an award from the Trust for more than 1,000 hours of volunteering. We are so grateful to Prashant for his hard work and dedication to the Friends.

Thank You

I would like to thank all the Trustees, our volunteers and of course Lucy and Richard for their ongoing support of the Chair’s role. Finally, a particular thank you must go to all our loyal members and donors, without whom our work would not be possible.

THE FRIENDS OF THE CHELSEA & WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

The Management Committee submits its report and the independently examined financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Friends is an unincorporated association, governed by and registered under the provisions of the Charities Acts. It has a Constitution, registered with the Charity Commission, governing among other things its membership, its objects, the appointment and retirement of officers and members of the Management Committee (the Trustees), its financial organisation and the conduct of committee and general meetings.

The Friends has a Management Committee, among whom are a Chair and two Vice-Chairs. Its day-to-day administration is in the hands of a Charity Manager and a Librarian (See page 4 for details).

Trustees are appointed and elected during the Annual General Meeting.

The Friends raises funds directly through fundraising appeals and charitable trading activities; it also has a wholly owned subsidiary, whose accounts are consolidated with those of the Friends, and through which it carries on commercial trading activities.

OBJECTS, ORGANISATION AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT

The object of the charity is to provide support to patients of the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and patients in the wider community. This is largely achieved by giving financial grants to departments for expenditure on equipment and by providing services in aid of the patients. In setting this objective the Management Committee have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

GRANT MAKING POLICY

The charity invites applications principally from the various medical departments of the hospital. The applicants state the amount required and the purpose for which funds are required. The applications are then reviewed by the Management Committee and either approved, in total or part, or rejected. In addition the charity provides a library and hair salon for staff and patients, a trolley service with books and another with goods from the shop for patients on the hospital wards. In 2022 it also introduced a lunch trolley service for staff in partnership with local firm B Bagel.

Grant commitments carried forward at 31[st] December 2022 were £25,227. Grant commitments made during the year 2023 were £112,231 and £6,206 grants were cancelled, making total grant commitments at the end of 2023 of £106,025. Of these total commitments, £77,089 was paid during 2023, leaving total commitments at 31[st] December 2023 of £54,163.

As a matter of accounting policy, grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient, so that grants payable at 31 December 2023 appear in the balance sheet of the Friends as “Creditors”.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Management Committee has examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirms that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced which will assist the Management Committee to monitor and control these risks.

FINANCIAL REVIEW AND INVESTMENT POLICY

As there was no major fundraising activity in 2023 our revenue from fundraising declined sharply to £6,018 (£19,900 in 2022). However, this decline was more than offset by a substantial rise in our trading activities as they recovered from the covid-impacted results of the previous year. With a full year of trading, the bric-à-brac and library sales had a record year with revenue of £20,792, and with the newly launched Lunch Trolley adding revenue of £36,760 and traders’ licence fees picking up, gross revenue from trading more than doubled to £71,453, and net revenue after associated costs quadrupled to £40,353. With additional rental income from the shop our total income nearly doubled to £115,818, returning to the pre-covid levels.

Because of this recovery in our revenue and our strong reserve position we were able to make grants payable of £112,231, a record for the last 10 years. This included two significant grants of close to £50,000 each, one for the Trust’s Best For You mental health project and one to fund a post for a Butterfly Volunteer Coordinator, a specialist role coordinating volunteers to help palliative care patients across the Trust.

As a result of this high level of grants payable, overall fund balances declined significantly to £298,398 (£373,267 in 2022). The cash position at the year end remained strong at £88,457 and recently we have taken the opportunity to place a significant proportion of this cash into a money market fund run by CCLA, thereby improving our investment return. In addition to our cash reserves other equity investments at the year end were £270,189.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Details of all the fundraising activities of the Friends are set out in the financial statements, in particular note 2 on page 13. The Friends does not believe it is practical to set financial fundraising objectives in relation to its fundraising activities.

RESERVES POLICY

It has been the policy to maintain funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a conservative level as compared with the predicted levels of expenditure. The objective is to provide sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs as well as to respond to emergency applications for funding, which arise from time to time.

Unrestricted reserves at 31[st] December 2023 were £298,398 (2022: £347,908).

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Within the scope and framework of its charitable objects and its financial resources, the Friends plan to continue its activities without fundamental change.

At the same time, taking into account anticipated changes in the level and nature of the service offered by Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the Friends may adapt some of its fundraising and charitable activities in the future.

Approved by the Chair on behalf of the Management Committee on 22[nd] May 2024

THE FRIENDS OF THE CHELSEA & WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

The Management Committee is responsible for preparing the Management Committee’s Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Management Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Management Committee is required to:

The Management Committee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable it to ensure that the Financial Statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom (FRS 102) issued on 16[th] July 2014 and the provisions of the objects and rules of the charity. 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE OF THE FRIENDS OF THE CHELSEA & WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Friends of the Chelsea & Westminster Hospital for the year ended 31[st] December 2023, which are set out on pages 9 to 19.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and 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.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

(1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

(2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or

(3) the accounts 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.

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 accounts to be reached.
