EAST OF ENGLAND AMBULANCE SERVICE NHS TRUST CHARITABLE FUNDS - ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS - 2020/21 

## **Charitable Objectives for the Public Benefit** 

The Charitable Funds are managed to encourage charitable giving for the benefit of the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust patients and staff and to provide a safe, well administered fund for the receipt and investment of Charitable Funds. 

## **Organisational Structure** 

The Trustee delegates responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Charitable Fund to officers within the Finance Directorate of East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust. 

Various procedures have been implemented to ensure the Charity's funds are received, applied and accounted for in accordance with accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charity's Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS 102) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland effective 1 January 2019. 

Incoming Resources are subject to the controls of the NHS Trust's general receipting and recording procedure. 

Relevant officers throughout the Trust are identified as "Gatekeepers". Requests for expenditure from the Charitable Fund generated by Gatekeepers are reviewed by the Finance Directorate under the Director of Finance and Commissioning and are approved only if expenditure will be made in accordance with the Charity's objectives, and criteria for expenditure and priorities set out in the Charitable Funds Strategy. The Head of Financial Services or Deputy Head of Financial Services approves expenditure up to £1,500, the Head of Finance approves expenditure up to £5,000 and the Director of Finance and Commissioning is required to approve all expenditure requests in excess of £5,000 but less than £25,000. Any expenditure request in excess of £25,000 must be approved by the Chief Executive, Director of Finance and Commissioning, and Charitable Funds Committee chair/member. 

## **Governing Document** 

The governing document is the Trust Deed dated 27 October 1994 updated by supplemental deed of declaration dated 31 March 2010. 

## **Activities 2020/21** 

The Trust administers a number of funds under the single umbrella registration. The funds for 2020/21 have been received from the public as unsolicited donations to the fund in general and on occasion to benefit a specific area of the Trust's operation. Income of £389,000 exceeds Expenditure of £157,000. 

The main expenditure of the Charitable funds has been the provision of community based medical equipment such as community public access defibrillators, and the equipping and supporting of the Community First Responder groups who are volunteers operating throughout the six counties covered by the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust. 

In the furtherance of charitable objectives to benefit the health of the population through the provision of patient welfare and amenities, £88,000 has been spent during the year to provide community public access defibrillators and cabinets, automated external defibrillators and other medical devices such as blood oxygenation monitors with community based first responder groups. A single project focussed on the replacement of community based defibrillator batteries contributed to half this expenditure.  This ensures the distributed communities covered by the Charity have timely local access to life saving equipment. 

In the use of funds for the benefit of National Health Service staff, East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust staff and volunteers have benefited from the expenditure of £64,000 on staff welfare and amenities, including the provision of training equipment and materials, uniforms, TV licenses for stations, care packages, and £50 retirement gift contributions. 

In ensuring the appropriate administration of the Charitable Fund, as well as compliance with Charity Commission requirements, the Fundraising Regulator and the Fundraising Preference Service, £5,000 has been expended on Governance costs, which comprises the independent examination of the annual accounts, recharge of the administration by the corporate Trustee, the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust, expenses for the finance software costs and membership fees for NHS Charities Together. 

Accumulated reserves have grown for the Charitable Fund in the current year 2020/21 by £232,000 and in the previous year 2019/20 by £48,000. In 2019/20 the Corporate Trustee has instigated a Charitable Funds Committee to oversee and provide guidance on how accumulated funds held in reserves will be utilised to meet the objectives of the Charity in a timely manner without excessive reserves being built up. 

Whilst the annual report and accounts are dedicated to delivery throughout the whole of the 2020/21 financial year, it is important to outline the significant effort across the financial year and ongoing into the 2021/22 period, as a result of the need for the healthcare system and supporting charities and organisations to respond to the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The Charitable Fund has experienced increased activities to support first responder groups who ontop of their responding have directed their efforts towards broader community assistance. The Charitable Fund is registered with NHS Charities Together and across the financial year has been awarded £125,600 in restricted grants to enhance the well-being of NHS Staff, volunteers and patients impacted by COVID-19, as part of the COVID-19 response. 

While unrestricted and restricted reserves have grown during 2020/21 the plans to utilise these funds have been developed and enacted during the 2021/22 financial year, with grants funded for improving the welfare and wellbeing of staff during the response to the COVID pandemic having been utilised in the development of outdoor spaces at ambulance stations, in the provision of welfare food boxes, and in the issuance of thank you cards and pin badges to staff.

EAST OF ENGLAND AMBULANCE SERVICE NHS TRUST CHARITABLE FUNDS - ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS - 2020/21 

## **Notes to the Accounts** 

## **Accounting Policies** 

- **1** 

- **1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland effective 1 January 2019. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

The trustees have considered the charity's position at the time of signing the financial statements, including but not limited to levels of financial reserves, utilisation plans, and potential ongoing issues caused by Covid-19 and its impact on the charity and the wider economy. 

The 2021/22 financial year will inevitably be impacted by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, however the Charity has remained operational throughout the ongoing pandemic providing vital support and services to NHS staff, patients and the wider community. A successful application to NHS Charities Together in November 2021 sees £406,951 of grant income received in 2021/22 from NHS Charities Together in support of Community Response schemes supported by the Charity. The Charity continues to hold substantial levels of free reserves. 

Based on this, the trustees have concluded that they have a reasonable expectation that the charity will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements. They therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.
