## PRESIDENT'S FOREWORD 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

As a charity, IPEM’s objective is the advancement of physics and engineering applied to medicine and biology, and to advance public education in the field. In essence, our mission is to improve health through physics and engineering in medicine. As a membership body we promote professionalism, as a learned society we offer education, training and development resources and we are an active voice on behalf of our members. Through the participation of IPEM members, we can generate the resources and opportunities that grow professionalism, drive knowledge-in-practice, deliver innovation and, ultimately, better healthcare. 

IPEM continues to change and adapt to the challenges faced by our members and by membership bodies across the STEM sector. Throughout 2022, we followed the strategy set out in “IPEM 2025”, which was adopted in 2021 with the primary aim of reducing our dependence on income from journals. 

Apart from the earliest weeks of 2022, the year saw the end of Covid Restrictions in the general population, but as members will keenly remember, rules specifically restricting NHS staff from travelling and gathering remained. The impact on IPEM’s activities eased and whereas since 2020, events and training had been entirely online, we were able to return to hosting and planning face-to-face meetings. This included rebranding our multi-day, cross discipline event (“MPEC”) as the Science, Technology and Engineering Forum, and aiming to host it in early 2023. 

For a second year in a row IPEM, sought to invest, projecting to make a loss of £259,576 before investment gains. However, the actual outturn was a loss of £30,260. IPEM therefore ended the year ahead of budget by £229,316. Our aim is to continue to grow our impact, both in terms of the social value created by our work and our ability to drive the change our members want to see in public policy. We will also work to grow our community and our customer base by continually seeking to improve how we serve members and the quality and relevance of our education and training. 

Whilst the main aim of IPEM 2025 is to increase income from membership, training and events, but it is only by being a thriving professional community that we can achieve this. Our Special Interest Groups, Task and Finish Groups, Committees and Councils all continued their valuable work. It was with aim of better engaging and supporting our most committed and active members and enhancing their experience, that IPEM started the journey to achieving the “Investor in Volunteering” certification in 2022. At the time of writing, IPEM has achieved this standard, and we can see through survey results that it is having an impact on volunteer experience. My sincere thanks go to all IPEM’s volunteers. 

IPEM is led by our Board of Trustees and Senior Leadership Team. 2022 saw the retirement of Kathryn Surtees, who had served as IPEM’s Head of Operations and Finance for more than a decade. She has my personal thanks and gratitude of all members for the thorough and precise way she carried out her role, which saw us through some difficult episodes. We are fortunate to have attracted Claire Sharpe has her successor. Claire has a background in charity finance and is leading the implementation of a new Customer Relationship Management platform (CRM) which will improve the member experience and represents a major investment. Such decisions are enabled through the diligence of staff working closely with volunteers, and I would like to pay tribute to my fellow Trustees, a brilliant group of members and independent volunteers who are committed to our objectives and willing and able to take strategic decisions about our future. As a Board, we can shape outcomes for the profession, something we approach with a keen sense of stewardship and I would recommend the experience to any aspiring Trustees. IPEM’s 2022 Annual General Meeting was held online for the third year in a row, facilitating the election of our President-Elect Dr Anna Barnes, who is on course to become IPEM’s first female President. I offer her my warmest congratulations and I look forward to continuing to work with her after I hand over in September 2023. 

Robert Farley (Aug 11, 2023 09:29 GMT+1)

## TRUSTEES' REPORT 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity. 

[The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published in October 2019. 

## **General** 

IPEM’s Board of Trustees is responsible for taking decisions on the strategic direction of the Institute and for approving major developments. It is chaired by the President, and consists of 12 Trustees, 7 of whom are IPEM members and 5 of whom are ‘independent’ (i.e., not drawn from the membership or eligible to be a member of IPEM) One of the key sub committees of the Board is the Finance and Business Planning Committee, which leads on financial and risk management matters, and is chaired by the Honorary Treasurer. The Board of Trustees met four times in 2022. Other than the first meeting of the year (in January) all meetings in the calendar year were conducted in person. 

IPEM has two Councils (Science, Technology, Engineering, Research, and Innovation Council, and Professional and Standards Council) who implement strategy and monitor the programmes covering scientific and professional aspects of the Institute’s work. The Directors of the Councils are Member Trustees of the Institute. 

Approximately 450 (9% of overall membership) members of the Institute supported its work in 2022 by volunteering. Volunteer activities include attending the various committees, sub-committees and working parties of the Institute, and by representing the Institute on external bodies and national advisory committees. 

The Chief Executive is not a Trustee or a member of the Institute but attends the Board of Trustees’ meetings together with the Head of Operations and Finance, the Head of Workforce Intelligence and Training, Head of Membership Development and the Head of Communications. The Chief Executive is however a member of both operational Councils. Along with the Head of Operations and Finance, the Chief Executive is also a member of the Finance and Business Planning committee, which is responsible for detailed scrutiny of the finances, risks, internal audit programme and business planning of the Institute. 

## **Trustee Recruitment and Training** 

Member Trustees serve a maximum of 3 years and Independent Trustees for a maximum of five, with terms of office set out in the Articles of Association. Each year a proportion of Trustees are appointed from the membership of the Institute in accordance with its Rules. The Officers (except the Honorary Treasurer – see below; and Honorary Secretary), Council Directors and Members Trustees are always appointed from the membership. A person may not act as a Trustee until they have signed a declaration of acceptance and willingness to act in accordance with the terms of the Articles. 

Professor Stephen O’Connor, Professor Andrew Reilly and Dr Ben Metcalfe stepped down from the Board in 2022 at the end of their terms of office. New Board Members who were elected at the Annual General Meeting on the 22 September 2022 are Dr A (Mani) Mannivannan (Member Trustee), Dr Mohammad Al-Amri (Director of STERIC) and Dr Anna Barnes (President-Elect). 

The Independent Trustees, including the Honorary Secretary, who are not members of the Institute or of related professions, may serve one term of five years, which is not renewable. They are recruited through open advertisement in charity, public and voluntary sector media, and selected through an interview process focused on filling specific skills gaps on the Trustee Board, such as knowledge or experience of governance, legal, HR or academic publishing issues. 

The Honorary Treasurer may serve up to two five-year terms. Since 2013, this position has been open to either a member

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

The Institute has a minority interest in the following companies: 

## _Radiology and Oncology Congresses (ROC)_ 

The Institute is one of three members of ROC, a company limited by guarantee and a Charity registered in England and Wales (Registration No. 10877939). The other two members are the British Institute of Radiology and the Society and College of Radiographers. ROC, through its trading subsidiary ROC Events Ltd, organises the annual United Kingdom Imaging & Oncology Congress (UKIO). This event was held in Liverpool in 2022.. 

## _RPA 2000_ 

RPA 2000 is a company limited by guarantee which was set up in 2000 by IPEM, the Association of University Radiation Protection Officers (AURPO), the Society for Radiological Protection (SRP) and the Institute of Radiation Protection (IRP), which has since been incorporated into the Society for Radiological Protection. 

The company arranges the Certification of Radiation Protection Advisors. The Institute, as the lead body in healthcare, nominates two members of the company’s Board, as do SRP, AURPRO may only nominate one member. 

## Other Alliances 

In addition, the Institute uses alliances with other bodies in the field to further its objectives, including: 

- Association of Clinical Scientists 

- Consortium for the Accreditation of Nuclear Medicine Education 

- Consortium for the Accreditation of Sonographic Education 

- Engineering Council 

- Royal Academy of Engineering 

- Science Council 

- The Mayneord Phillips Trust 

- The National School for Healthcare Science 

- The Academy for Healthcare Science. 

## **Risk Management** 

Trustees regularly review the risks facing IPEM. Responsibility for monitoring risks has been delegated to the Finance and Business Planning (F&BP) Committee, which reviews the risk register four times a year. The top three or four risks identified at each F&BP meeting are reported to the Trustee Board meeting for discussion by the Trustees, and to confirm that the Board is satisfied with mitigation measures. 

During 2022, the primary risks were: 

Lack of engagement of member volunteers – IPEM continues to deliver a large amount of activity, including commercial outcomes, with the support of volunteers. We regularly recruit volunteers to take on a variety of roles and the risk is increased as the time available for volunteering among members comes under pressure. Mitigations in 2022 included: 

- Maintaining Volunteer Forums as a channel for volunteers to raise issues directly with the President and CEO. 

- Working to complete the NCVO's Investors in Volunteers standard. 

Over reliance on a journal income - Typically 50-60% of IPEM’s income derives from publishing. Mitigations in 2022 included: 

Page 6 



## **INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS AND ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE** 

## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

- Following IPEM’s Investment strategy. 

- Maintaining a rolling 5-year financial forecast. 

- Strengthening the staff team and restructuring management. 

- Agreeing targets for non-journal income in 2023. 

- Publishing a Science Leadership Strategy to ensure IPEM remains relevant. 

Loss of journal income through lack of adaptation to open access publishing – this remains a high risk for IPEM, in common with previous years and envisages a decline in income from journal publications. Mitigations in 2022 included: 

- Promoting IPEM’s Fully Gold OA Journal (IPEM Translation). 

- Maintaining the Journals Working Group, tasked with developing a new publishing strategy. 

- IPEM will develop detailed contingency plans for decreased income to IPEM over next decade. 

Decline in recruitment and retention/decline in participation in professional development activity – this focuses on the risk of disengagement from IPEM and how this could damage achievement of the charitable objects. Mitigations include: 

- Developing a New "Science Technology Engineering Forum" event to replace declining MPEC brand, to launch in 2023. 

- Enhancing the Conferences and Events teams with two full time staff. 

- Bringing Events under the overall direction of the Training Team. 

- Improving the presentation of events and training on the website. 

The risks identified in 2020 arising from the pandemic emergency were largely removed from the register by the end of 2022. 

Additionally, the strategy document “IPEM 2025” (published in 2021) continued to provide the guide to operational planning. This document sets out IPEM’s strategic focus: 

Professional Development - Providing excellent learning and development services that meet the needs of the professional community of physicists, engineers and technologists working in physics and engineering in medicine and biology in hospitals, academia and industry.

## **Future Plans** 

IPEM will continue its project to implement a new Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform, and new finance and payroll systems, which commenced in 2022, and are due to complete in 2023. 

## **Financial Review 2022** 

## **Summary** 

The net deficit for the Group in 2022 after investment gains/losses is (£176,326), compared with a net surplus in 2021 of £657,750. This consists of a net deficit in 2022 on Unrestricted Funds of £234,810 (2021 net surplus of £616,442) and a net surplus in 2022 of £58,484 (2021 net loss of £41,308) on Restricted Funds. 

The net surplus for the Group in 2022 consists of £1,605,568 of income, compared to £1,654,086 in 2021, a decrease of £48,518 (2.93%); £1,574,330 of expenditure, compared to £1,295,043 in 2021, an increase of £279,287 (21.57%) and an unrealised loss on investments in 2022 of (£207,564) compared to £298,707 in 2021, a decrease of £506,271 (169.48%). 

The net decrease in the Group’s income totalling (£48,518) was essentially due to lower income from Journals (£65,815), offset slightly by increases in other areas. 

The increase in the Group’s expenditure of £279,287 was due to an increase in staffing costs of £109,572, an increase in direct costs £63,578 and an increase in support costs of £51,614. 

The Group’s cumulative surplus stood at £4,204,557 on 31 December 2022 of which £547,224 is currently financing fixed assets. 

## **Grants, Awards and Bursaries** 

To encourage the development of physics and engineering in medicine, IPEM helps scientists in the field by the provision of bursaries to support attendance at appropriate scientific meetings, PhD Bursaries, donations, and small research grants. In each case, IPEM requires a written report from the recipients of this funding, demonstrating the value derived from it. These reports are sometimes also published in the Scope membership magazine, for the benefit of other members. Grants may include funding other charities, or in some cases organisations that are not charities (subject to our policy on payments to non-charities, and due diligence investigations), to further our charitable objectives.

## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

The direct expenditure in 2022 totalled £56,438 including four Research Grants totalling £39,598, compared with £37,589 in 2021, an increase of £18,849 (50.14%). 

## **Income from Donations** 

The income from Donations consists of the Membership Subscriptions. These have decreased by (£3,277) (1.18%) from £277,604 in 2021 to £274,327 in 2022. 

## **Professional Standards and Development** 

The income received in 2022 by the Group for Professional Standards and Development is £177,485 compared to £275,091 in 2021, a decrease of £97,606 (35.48%). The reduction being due to the one-off income from the MPE project in 2021 and a reduction in restricted funds. 

The direct costs attributable to Professional Standards and Development activity has increased by £13,037 (6.14%) from £212,380 in 2021 to £225,417 in 2022. 

## **Publications** 

Publications consist of income from royalties from the sale of our Journals and the sale of books and reports. 

## Journals 

In 2022 Journals income totals £886,594 compared with £952,409 in 2021, a decrease of £65,815 (6.91%). 

Royalties from Physics in Medicine and Biology (PMB) saw a decrease of 4.80%; Physiological Measurement saw an increase of 1.87%; and Medical Engineering and Physics (MEP) saw a decrease of 13.95%. The income from MEP included a reduction in copyrights income from £241,142 for 2021 to £124,826 for 2022 as had previously been advised by the publisher. 

## Other Publications 

The income from the sales of other publications has decreased in 2022 by £5,196 (16.74%) from £31,031 in 2021 to £25,835 in 2022. This is mainly made up of income from our joint e-book series £18,417 and from the IEL Book store £7,418. 

The direct costs attributable to publications were £7,517 in 2022, compared to £5,263 in 2021, an increase of £2,321 (44.10%) due to handover at retirement from Kathryn Surtees to Claire Sharpe. 

## **Scientific Meetings** 

The income from Scientific Meetings in 2022 was £141,053, compared with £89,113 in 2021, an increase of £51,940 (58.29%) reflecting a return to face-to-face meetings. 

Direct costs of Scientific Meetings in 2021 was low at £4,229 due to the pandemic, and increased to £66,694, an increase of £62,465 (1453.01%).

## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

activities was £32,699, compared with £22,591 in 2021, an increase of £10,108 (44.74%). This increase in trading activities is mainly attributable to an increase in advertising income. 

## **Associates** 

IPEM Associate, Radiology and Oncology Congresses made a surplus in 2021. Through its subsidiary, ROC Events Ltd, the charity organised the United Kingdom online Imaging and Oncology Congress. 

ROC made a surplus of £179,501 of which one third is recognised in IPEMs accounts as a minority interest £59,834. In 2021 an expense of (£19,599), recognising one third of the deficit suffered by ROC. 

## **Fundraising** 

Section 162a of the Charities Act 2011 requires charities to make a statement regarding fundraising activities. Although IPEM does not undertake widespread fundraising from the general public, the legislation defines fund raising as “soliciting or otherwise procuring money or other property for charitable purposes.” Such amounts receivable is presented in the accounts as “voluntary income” and includes legacies and grants. 

In relation to the above, it is confirmed that all solicitations are managed internally, without involvement of commercial participators or professional fund-raisers, or third parties. The day-to-day management of all income generation is delegated to the executive team, who are accountable to the Trustees. 

The Charity is not bound by any undertaking to any regulatory scheme and the Charity does not consider it necessary to comply with any voluntary code of practice. 

IPEM has not received any complaints in relation to fundraising activities. IPEM’s terms of employment require staff to behave reasonably at all times. As IPEM does not approach individuals for funds, it does not have to particularise them to fundraising activities nor is it necessary to design specific procedures to monitor such activities. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

Free reserves as at 31 December 2022 were £1,619,003 (2021: £1,857,065). These are the net funds available after deducting fixed assets of £547,224 (2021: £460,203), restricted funds of £372,099 (2021: £313,615) and designated funds of £1,666,231 (2021: £1,750,000). 

The Trustees reviewed the reserves requirement in 2020. The free reserve target was set at a Target Operating Reserve of £750,000 in addition to the Designated Reserve of £1,666,231 (to take account of the business development challenges). During 2022 the Trustees approved capital expenditure for a new CRM and finance system that will be drawn from the designated reserve. 

The Target Operating Reserve is defined as the amount that Trustees consider appropriate: 

- To absorb income/expenditure shocks. This will ensure stability of IPEM, its programmes, employment, and the ongoing operations of the organisation. It is intended to provide an internal source of funds for situations like increasing expenses, one-time unbudgeted expenses, and unanticipated loss in funding or uninsured losses. 

- To fund working capital requirements. 

- To plan for growth or grasp opportunities as they arise. 

- The fund may also be used for one-time, non- recurrent expenses that will build long-term capacity, such as staff development, research and development or investment in infrastructure. 

- To generate income. 

- To fund an ordered “winding up” or restructuring costs following a permanent loss of funds.

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

The Designated Reserve has been identified to take account of the business development challenge. The Trustees have implemented an investment policy with the aim of protecting these funds from inflation. 

The Trustees approved the Investment of £750,000 into the Investment in COIF Charities Investment Fund of funds in 2016.  The Trustees approved a further £400,000 transfer to this fund in 2019 and a further £400,000 transfer to this fund in 2021. 

The performance of the fund manager (CCLA) is reviewed annually against the objectives set by the Trustees and industry benchmarks. The value of the Investment was circa £2,099,762 at the end of 2022 against a historic cost of £1,550,000. The Fund itself invests in in readily liquid assets and IPEM’s investment can be realised at one week’s notice should it need to access funds immediately. 

The Trustees have considered: 

- That low levels of reserves can threaten the existence of IPEM and can also deter potential funders and create insecurity amongst beneficiaries, supporters, and employers. 

- That high levels of reserves may lead to the Trustees acting in conflict with their duty to apply income within a reasonable time or failing in the duty to be even-handed to future and current beneficiaries. 

The Trustees have taken a risk identification approach to setting the Reserve Target. This approach is based on an understanding of the income streams and their risk profile, the degree of commitment to expenditure and the overall risk environment in which the Charity operates. 

The Directors (who are also the Trustees of the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine under charity law) are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

## STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and the Charitable company and of their incoming resources and application of resources, including their income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102); 

- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Group and the Charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and the Charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and the Charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF  INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS AND ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Institute of Physics And Engineering in Medicine (the 'parent charitable company') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Charitable company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the Group's and of the parent charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of the Group's incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group's or the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF  INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS AND ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE (CONTINUED) 

## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the Trustees' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. 

- the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- the parent charitable company has not kept adequate and sufficient accounting records, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the parent charitable company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of Trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the Trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Trustees' Report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report.

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Group's and the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

**(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF  INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS AND ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE (CONTINUED) 

## **Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the group  and  parent  charitable company  and  the  sector  in  which  it  operates  and  considered  the  risk  of  acts  by  the  group  and  parent  charitable company  that  were  contrary  to  applicable  laws  and  regulations,  including  fraud.We  designed  audit  procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error,  as  fraud  may  involve  deliberate  concealment  by,  for  example,  forgery  or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. 

We focussed on laws and regulations, relevant to the chartiable company, which could give  rise  to  a  material misstatement  in  the  financial  statements.  Our  tests  included  agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation, enquiries  of  management,  review  of  board  minutes  and  legal  expenses. There  are  inherent limitations in the audit procedures described and, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in  the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,  including  those leading  to  a  material  misstatement  in  the  financial  statements  or  non-compliance  with  regulation.  This  risk increases  the  more  that compliance  with  a  law  or  regulation  is  removed  from  the  events  and  transactions reflected  in  the  financial  statements,  as  we  will  be  less  likely  to  become  aware  of  instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due  to  fraud  rather  than  error,  as  fraud  involves  intentional concealment,  forgery,  collusion, omission or misrepresentation. 

We  communicate  with  those  charged  with  governance  regarding,  among  other  matters,  the  planned  scope  and timing  of  the  audit  and  significant  audit  findings,  including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

## **1. General information** 

The Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine is a company limited by guarantee and is registered      with the Charity Commission for England and Wales. The address of the registered office is shown in the Trustees' Annual Report. The nature of the Group’s operations and its principal activities are outlined in the Trustees' Annual Report. The presentational currency is sterling and amounts are rounded to the nearest whole £. 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## _**2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements**_ 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

Institute of Physics And Engineering in Medicine meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

The Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and Consolidated Balance Sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Charitable company and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis. 

The Charitable company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Financial Activities in these financial statements. No statement of cashflows has been presented for the parent charity as it has taken advantage of the exemption given in FRS 102. 

## _**2.2 Income**_ 

Membership subscriptions, RCT registrations and journal subscriptions are attributed to the financial years to which they relate. Advertising income, training scheme Fees, international support, Journal contracted income, and books and report income is recognised when receivable. 

## _**2.3 Expenditure**_ 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Support costs are allocated initially based on the National Office staff time with a residual element allocated based on activity, represented by the aggregate of income and expenditure for each activity stream. This resulted in the following proportions being allocated in 2022:

## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## _**2.3 Expenditure (continued)**_ 

Grants Awards and Bursaries - 1.92% Professional Standard and Development - 56.66% Publication Costs - 26.11% Scientific Meetings - 10.38% Governance Cost - 4.93% 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 

## _**2.4 Interest receivable**_ 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Group; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited. 

## _**2.5 Intangible assets and amortisation**_ 

Intangible assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. 

Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life. 

Amortisation is provided on the following basis: 

Computer software - 33 % straight line 

Assets under development are not amortised. 

## _**2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**_ 

Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## _**2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation (continued)**_ 

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of tangible assets over their estimated useful lives by the straight-line method starting in the year of purchase or commissioning . 

Depreciation is provided on the following basis: 

|Freehold property|-|1% straight line|
|---|---|---|
|Property alterations|-|10% straight line|
|Fixtures and fittings|-|10% straight line|
|Office equipment|-|20% straight line|
|Loan Equipment|-|20% straight line|



Freehold land is not depreciated. 

Assets under construction are not depreciated. 

## _**2.7 Investments**_ 

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities. 

Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment. 

Investments in associates are stated at the amount of the Group's share of net assets. The Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities includes the Group's share of the associated companies' net income or expenditure using the equity accounting basis. As the associate is a charity, the investment is presented within restricted funds. 

## _**2.8 Stocks**_ 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. 

## _**2.9 Debtors**_ 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## _**2.10 Cash at bank and in hand**_ 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## _**2.11 Liabilities and provisions**_ 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charitable company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. 

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost. 

## _**2.12 Financial instruments**_ 

The Group only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## _**2.13 Operating leases**_ 

For operating leases, the rentals are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

## _**2.14 Pensions**_ 

The costs of providing pensions for employees are charged in the Statement of Financial Activities, as contributions are due. 

## _**2.15 Fund accounting**_ 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Group and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

_FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022_ 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## _**2.16 Value Added Tax**_ 

The company is partially exempt for VAT purposes. The cost of additions to tangible assets includes the appropriate amount of irrecoverable input tax. The irrecoverable VAT relating to items in the statement of financial activities is included as an expense item within general expenses. 

## _**2.17 Going Concern**_ 

The financial statements have been prepared under the going concern basis. Having carried out a review of the company’s cash flow and resources, the Trustees are confident that the Charity is able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In undertaking their review, the Trustees have prepared financial projections for the period of twelve months from the date of issue of these financial statements and into the following financial year. These projections have been sensitised based on various levels of revenue and assessed against the available cash headroom and ability to draw down on investments held. 

## _**2.18 Tax Accounting**_ 

The company is considered to pass the tests set out in Sch. 6, para. 1 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Pt. 11, Ch. 3 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or s. 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## _**3.**_ **Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment** 

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances 

The Charitable company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. 

Tangible assets and useful economic lives: 

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives considering residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on several factors.
