Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
Independent auditor’s report to the Trustee of Frimley Health Charity
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Frimley Health Charity (“the charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows, and related notes, including the accounting policies in note 1.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with UK accounting standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We have been appointed as auditor under section 149 of the Charities Act 2011 (or its predecessors) and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities are described below. We have fulfilled our ethical responsibilities under, and are independent of the charity in accordance with, UK ethical requirements including the FRC Ethical Standard. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is a sufficient and appropriate basis for our opinion.
Going concern
The trustee has prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the charity or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the charity’s financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements (“the going concern period”).
In our evaluation of the trustee’s conclusions, we considered the inherent risks to the charity’s business model and analysed how those risks might affect the charity’s financial resources or ability to continue operations over the going concern period. Our conclusions based on this work:
-
we consider that the trustee’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate;
-
we have not identified, and concur with the trustee’s assessment that there is not, a material uncertainty related to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the going concern period.

Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
However, as we cannot predict all future events or conditions and as subsequent events may result in outcomes that are inconsistent with judgements that were reasonable at the time they were made, the above conclusions are not a guarantee that the charity will continue in operation.
Fraud and breaches of laws and regulations – ability to detect
Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to fraud
To identify risks of material misstatement due to fraud (“fraud risks”) we assessed events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included:
-
Enquiring of trustee, other management and inspection of policy documentation as to the Charity’s high‐level policies and procedures to prevent and detect fraud, as well as whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud.
-
Reading Charitable Funds Committee minutes.
-
Using analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.
We communicated identified fraud risks throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audit.
As required by auditing standards, we perform procedures to address the risk of management override of controls, in particular the risk that management may be in a position to make inappropriate accounting entries. On this audit we do not believe there is a fraud risk related to revenue recognition because there is minimal complexity in revenue recognition or incentives for management to seek to manipulate revenue as commitments are not made in advance of funding being available.
We did not identify any additional fraud risks.
We performed procedures including identifying journal entries to test based on risk criteria and comparing the identified entries to supporting documentation. These included those posted to unusual accounts, unusual cash account combinations, last 5 journals posted in the year and material post year end journals.
Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement related to compliance with laws and regulations
We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, through discussion with the trustee and other management (as required by auditing standards), and discussed with the trustee and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations.
We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non‐compliance throughout the audit.
Page 4 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably.
The Charity is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related charities legislation), and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.
Whilst the Charity is subject to many other laws and regulations, we did not identify any others where the consequences of non‐compliance alone could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements.
Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non‐compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustee and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Therefore if a breach of operational regulations is not disclosed to us or evident from relevant correspondence, an audit will not detect that breach.
Context of the ability of the audit to detect fraud or breaches of law or regulation
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non‐compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it.
In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non‐detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material misstatement. We are not responsible for preventing non‐compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non‐compliance with all laws and regulations.
Other information
The trustee is responsible for the other information, which comprises the Trustee’s Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or, except as explicitly stated below, any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether, based on our financial statements audit work, the information therein is materially misstated or inconsistent with the financial statements or our audit knowledge. We are required to report to you if:
- based solely on that work, we have identified material misstatements in the other information; or
Page 5 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
- in our opinion, the information given in the Trustee’s Annual Report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements.
We have nothing to report in these respects.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
Under the Charities Act 2011 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the charity has not kept sufficient accounting records; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
We have nothing to report in these respects.
Trustee’s responsibilities
As explained more fully in their statement set out on page 11, the trustee is responsible for: the preparation of financial statements which give a true and fair view; such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; assessing the charity’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 they either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities
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 our opinion in an auditor’s report. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
A fuller description of our responsibilities is provided on the FRC’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.
The purpose of our audit work and to whom we owe our responsibilities

Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustee as a body, in accordance with section 149 of the Charities Act 2011 (or its predecessors) and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustee those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and its trustee, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

2.2 Statement of Trustee’s Responsibilities
Under [the trust deed [and rules] of the charity and][1] charity law, the trustees are responsible for preparing a Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. The trustees are required to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, generally accepted accounting practice entails that the trustees:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
state whether the financial statements comply with the trust deed [and rules], subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
assess the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern; and
Page 11 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
- use the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
The trustees are required to act in accordance with the trust deed [and the rules] of the charity, within the framework of trust law. They are responsible for keeping accounting records which are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose at any time, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the charity at that time, and to enable the trustees to ensure that, where any statements of accounts are prepared by them under section 132(1) of the Charities Act 2011, those statements of accounts comply with the requirements of regulations under that provision. They are responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
[The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the financial and other information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.][2]
2.3 Charitable Funds Committee
The Charitable Funds Committee was established by the Trustee to oversee the day‐to‐day management of the Charity in accordance with the duties of the Trustee, and to report regularly to the Trustee on the discharge of its responsibilities. The Charitable Funds Committee is chaired by a Non‐Executive Director of the Trust and includes Executive and Directors as well as individuals who are not members of the Board of Directors. The members who served during the financial year and up to the date of signing the financial statements were as follows:
Members:
John Weaver Non‐Executive Director & Committee Chair Carol Deans Director of Communication and Engagement Edward John Director of Operational Finance Attendees: Lorna Wilkinson Chief of Nursing & Midwifery Debbie Raven Non‐Executive Director Judith Gudgeon Consultant Jeetesh Bhardwa Consultant Philippa Hooton Head of Nursing Medicine & Elderly Care Alison Stevens Corporate Head of Nursing FPH Joanna Hawks Matron, Wexham ED Stuart Bendermacher Matron Emergency Assessments Ann McDonald Associate Director of Finance Aman Jhalli Head of Technical Accounts

Charity Director
The accounting records and the day‐to‐day administration of the funds are dealt with by the Finance Department located at Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust, Heatherwood Hospital, London Road, Ascot, Berkshire SL5 8AA.
3 Risk Management
The major risks to which the Charity is exposed have been identified and assessed, with systems in place that seek to mitigate those risks.
Although the current economic climate is relatively stable, the prospect of future economic downturns presents limited risk because in general the Charity does not enter into long‐term spending commitments that are not covered by its income and tailors its expenditure to the funds available.
Expenditure is closely monitored; no fund manager is able to expend funds without the request first being checked by the Finance Department, which ensures the funds are available. The Charitable Funds Committee regularly reviews the movement on the different funds to satisfy itself that funds are being spent in accordance with the purpose for which they were raised and not retained to no benefit of the Charity, with significant fund holders asked to provide spending plans to support high balances.
There are no material uncertainties about the Charities ability to continue. The Charity is a public benefit entity.
4 Objectives and Strategy
The Charity’s overarching objective is expressed as follows in the Trust Deed:
“The Trustee shall hold the Trust Fund upon trust to apply the income, and at its discretion, so far as may be permissible, the capital, for any charitable purposes relating to the NHS (hereinafter referred to as “the Objects”)”.
The Trustee has had regards to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 as well as the activities undertaken to further a charity’s purposes for the benefit of the public as demonstrated in section 5 of the Annual Report.
The Charitable Funds Committee has defined the purpose of the Frimley Health Charity as follows:
The purpose of the Frimley Health Charity is to raise and receive money and other support from patients, staff and members of Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust (“The Hospitals”), as well as from the wider community. The Trustee of the Charity is responsible for ensuring the funds raised are spent in accordance with the wishes of the donors if specified, Charity Commission guidelines, and all relevant legal requirements.
The overall aim of the Corporate Trustee is to enhance the capacity of the Hospitals, its staff, and volunteers to provide the best possible care for its patients, over and above the standards required by the NHS.
Page 13 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
The Charitable Funds Committee continued to support the Trust’s main strategic appeal in 2021‐22:
-
The COVID Appeal was launched in March 2020 and continued throughout 2021/22. The aim was to raise funds to support staff and patients who were
-
struggling to cope in extremely difficult situations. Almost £1.1m was raised in this time, especially in 2020/21 and in 2021/22 the Charity spent almost £0.8m on COVID related projects.
-
The Stroke Appeal funding was secured and building work started in 2021/22. This was paused in 2022 but will be completed by the end of 2022 bringing superb new facilities for Stroke patients.
-
The Dementia Appeal was relaunched at the start of 2022 and new branding was launched at the start of 2022/23 and has been well received. Income for the Appeal is already over £200,000.
5 Review of Finances, Achievements and Performance
The net assets of the Charity as at 31 March 2022 were £4,835,000 compared with £5,433,000 as at 31 March 2021, an overall decrease of £598,000.
The total income received was £1,229,000 which represents a decrease of £1,131,000 compared with the previous year (20/21 £2,360,000) and this was largely due to the impact of the pandemic which has continued to restrict events, lottery canvassing, recruitment, and visitors to the hospital. All of this has caused a slump in fundraising, donations and event income.
Total expenditure was £1,827,000, which was an increase of £526,000 on the previous year (2020/21 £1,301,000). Spend on equipment purchases rose to £215,000 (2020/21 £170,000) an increase of £45,000 on the previous year. £223,000 was spent on patient education and welfare (2020/21 £111,000) which was an increase of £112,000 from the previous year. Spending on staff education and welfare decreased by £108,000 to £623,000 (2020/21 £731,000).
Total expenditure includes governance costs which are shown in note 7 having been apportioned across the approved expenditure headings.
The Charity Lottery scheme (which is a community lottery), launched in 2018‐19 saw progress throughout 2021‐22 and reported a ‘surplus’ of £102,000 if grants paid for charitable projects and staff salaries are excluded. This lottery has significant income streams projected for future years which will increase general funds to use on the highest priority projects.
Fund Raising
In 2021/22 the impact of the pandemic has continued to restrict events, lottery canvassing, recruitment, and visitors to the hospital. All of this has caused a slump in fundraising,
Page 14 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
donations and event income. This has been felt across the third sector with many charities facing extremely difficult times. In 2020/21 we managed to secure some significant funding which was due to the huge groundswell of support for the NHS, but in 2021/22 with ongoing restrictions our income has been severely hit. With the emergence of the Omicron variant we had further restrictions in the early part of 2022. Over two years since COVID‐19 was first reported there is the glimmer of hope that restrictions could be lifted, but also concerns that further variants could bring a return of those restrictions. Masks are still worn in hospitals and illness due to COVID is placing enormous strain on the NHS.
Not only was income impacted but also COVID‐19 has caused the ‘Great Resignation’ as many people took time out to evaluate their lives. Recruitment in 2021/22 has been tough and delayed posts being filled until 2022. We also had two members of the team leave (September 2021) and again their replacements will only be made in 2022 due to the difficulties with recruitment. These difficulties with recruitment have impacted our income and in 2022/23 as new members of the team are secured so we are already seeing the impact on income.
We have successfully spent almost £0.8m on the staff welfare projects and the regional Frimley Health and Care ICS project over the past 12‐15 months. The impact has been clearly felt across the Trust with many clinical teams thrilled with the transformation of their areas for relaxation when not on duty. Patients are surrounded by a peaceful calming environment and this combined with great clinical care is impacting recovery and wellbeing. The community lottery continues to be very popular and income for 2021/22 was £402,000. We have now over 10,000 tickets/week. If income remains static then we could expect £500‐ 600,000 income but with continued growth we would expect this to be £600‐700,000 in 2022/23. Also we have just recruited our own canvassers which has been planned for over 2 ½ years. This will dramatically improve our net position for the lottery as costs for recruitment of players will be reduced significantly.
Income for 2021/22 was £1.2m which as mentioned above was a huge decrease from the previous year but we expect a turnaround in the first quarter of 2022/23. This has been down to some significant legacy pledges and also the growth in lottery income. With further fundraising through the 2022/23 year means that we are expecting income to head back towards the target of £2.4m.
Income
The Charity relies on donations, grants, and legacies as its main sources of income, this was £625,000 (2020/21 £1,607,000). This category represented just over half of total income at 51% but was down on the previous year (2020/21 68%). This was mainly due to inflated numbers due to public generosity during Covid in 2020/21.
The Charity received £402,000 in respect of income from the community lottery during 2021/22 (£408,000 in 2020/21).
Expenditure
Expenditure included staff education and welfare of £623,000 (2020/21 ‐ £731,000) this enabled nursing, medical and support staff to develop their skills by attending courses
Page 15 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
where innovation and new research ideas can be shared. Such opportunities are over and above the regular Trust programmes of staff development and are made possible through donations received in wards and departments from patients and relatives as a thank you. These funds are also used to support departmental team building events.
During the year the Charity also continued to support a range of other charitable and health related activities benefiting patients both directly and indirectly. The purchases were varied and were of a kind that would not normally be a priority for NHS funding and included the following items in excess of £10,000:
-
Vast refurbishment to all Trust staffrooms funded by
-
NHS Charities Together and community donations £139,798
-
Contribution to ICU refurbishment works £21,274 Medical equipment in Neonates £14,802 Comfortable furniture for parents waiting with children in Neonates £14,664 Mental health training for Trust managers funded from NHS Charities Together and the community as part of our Covid response £14,243 The lottery fund supported physio by way of a treadmill purchase £13,691 Funding for staff for music therapy for our Dementia patients £12,941 Medical equipment for Fleet Hospital £10,116 The Trust hosted funds from NHS Charities Together in support of the Frimley Health & Care ICS and disbursed to worthy causes £213,150
The Charity incurred £285,000 in respect of expenses to support the continued growth of the community lottery as well as supporting other charitable projects to the sum of £82,000 during 2021/22 as opposed to £179,000 in 2020/21. The increase was on the previous year was reflective of recovery from Government restrictions put on by Covid‐19.
Going Concern
The Trustee has reasonable expectation that Frimley Health Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern and the accounts have been prepared on this basis. The Trustees have also considered the implications of COVID‐19 on cash flow forecasts and consider that as a result of its operating model explained within this Annual Report, even if no further funding is received in the 12 month period, the Charity has sufficient cash reserves to pay all committed costs.
6 Investment Policy
The Corporate Trustee has determined the investment policy as being, in so far as reasonable, to maintain and enhance the real value of the Charity’s assets over the long term by an investment portfolio of low‐risk assets.
Page 16 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
7 Reserves Policy
The Trustee’s policy is that funds should be spent when suitable applications arise, rather than that they should be retained indefinitely with the intention of generating investment income. This reflects the fact that the Charity does not generally enter into long‐term commitments. The Trust does however have a level of operating expenditure of £406,000 (£374,000 for 2020/21) and the Trustees intend that an amount equal to six months’ worth of expenditure £203,000 (£187,000 for 2020/21) be held in reserve to fund forward commitments.
The Charity also has funds which are designed to accumulate funds for a specific appeal and are therefore held until the appeal target is met. These funds are reviewed each year, but for 2021/22 the following are considered as reserved at 31st March:
| | F028 | Stroke Appeal | £612,185 |
|---|---|---|---|
| | F030 | Frimley Breast Care Appeal | £184,678 |
| | F050 | Dementia Campaign | £85,621 |
| | F009 | NHS Charities Together ICS | £66,219 |
| | F551 | Breast Cancer Appeal | £46,515 |
| | F035 | Paediatric Critical Care Appeal | £30,069 |
| | F008 | NHS Charities Together | £18,130 |

The Stroke Appeal is complete and building on the extension to the Stroke Unit is expected to be completed by the end of 2022. This will make a significant difference to the lives of Stroke patients. We have now relaunched the Dementia Appeal and as of July 2022 over £200,000 has been raised towards a target of £850,000. Our vision is to transform dementia care at Frimley Health in our hospitals and the community. We want to give dementia patients the best possible care and not be overly anxious when they are admitted to hospital. They will be met by staff from porters to nurses and doctors, who care for them and understand their needs and work hard to put dementia patients at ease. The environment will be transformed and the approach to patients will be individually tailored and informed.
As the Lottery has grown (we now have 10,000 tickets/week in the lottery) we are making significant changes to its management. Firstly, we have recruited our own canvassers who will start work in August 2022. This will improve significantly the ROI for this income stream. Secondly, we will be moving from a lottery to a raffle. This will improve chances of winning the top prizes.
With additional staff we have been able to start developing new income. We are planning new legacy events for 2022/23 and have already started to distribute bookmarks across the

Trust with basic information about legacies and promoting this way of giving. We also expect our event income to top £200,000 in 2022/23 with the recruitment of a new Events Manager. We also expect Major Donor income to rise with the appointment of a new Philanthropy Manager.
The future for the charity is looking very positive at present with rising income after the difficulties of the pandemic, and a fully engaged, enthusiastic and experienced team.
A Big Thank You
On behalf of staff and patients who have benefitted from improved services due to the receipt of donations and legacies, the Corporate Trustee would like to thank all of those who have made charitable donations during the year.

Notes to the Accounts
1. Accounting Policies
a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the
Trustees consider to be appropriate for the following reasons:
-
The business model of the Charity is such that its charitable activities are limited to those which it has sufficient funds to support from the excess of funding received over the costs of administering the charity. The charity therefore has no specific commitments and no committed costs beyond its fixed costs of operation which are detailed in note 6.
-
The Trustees have reviewed the cash flow forecasts for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements which indicate that the charity will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period. The Trustees have also considered the implications of COVID‐19 on these cash flow forecasts and consider that as a result of its operating model explained above, even if no further funding is received in the 12 month period, the charity has sufficient cash reserves to pay all committed costs.
-
Consequently, the Trustees are confident that the charity will have sufficient funds to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
-
b) Reconciliation with previous generally accepted accounting practice
In preparing these accounts, the Trustee has considered whether any restatement of comparatives was required to comply with FRS 102 and the Charities SORP (FRS 102),
c) Funds Structure
Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors. Unrestricted funds comprise those funds that the Trustee is free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. The funds are disclosed in note 11.
- d) Income
All income must be recognised when entitlement is established, the monetary value can be reliably measured and the receipt is probable.
Legacies are accounted for as income where the receipt of the legacy is probable; this will be once confirmation has been received from the representatives of the estate(s) that probate has been granted; there are sufficient assets in the estate to pay the legacy and that all the conditions of the legacy have been fulfilled or are within the Charity’s control.
Page 22 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
Gift Aid
Gift Aid is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
e) Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Grant commitments are recognised when a constructive obligation arises which results in a payment being unavoidable. Grants are only made to related or third party NHS bodies and non‐NHS bodies in furtherance of the charitable objects of the funds. A liability for such grants is recognised when approval has been given by the Corporate Trustee. The Trust has full knowledge of the plans of the Trustee, therefore a grant approval is taken to constitute a firm intention of payment, which has been communicated to the Trust, and so a liability is recognised.
Contractual arrangements are recognised as goods and services are supplied.
f) Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.
- g) Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those costs which do not relate directly to a single activity. These include some staff costs, costs of administration, internal and external audit costs and IT support. Support costs have been apportioned between fundraising costs and charitable activities on the basis of a proportion of total spend. The analysis of support costs and the basis of apportionment applied are shown in note 6.
- h) Cost of raising funds
The costs of raising funds are fundraising expenses and consultancy costs.
i) Charitable Activities
Costs of charitable activities comprise all costs incurred in the pursuit of the charitable objects of the Charity. These costs include an apportionment of overhead and support costs as shown in note 6 and 7.
Page 23 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
j) Transfers between funds
A transfer between funds is permitted provided the transfer is in keeping with the
purpose of the funds and has been agreed by the relevant fund holders in all cases.
- k) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash at bank and in hand is held to meet the day to day running costs of the Charity as they fall due.
- l) Current asset investments
Current asset investments include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short‐term cash commitments as they fall due.
- m) Debtors
Debtors are amounts owed to the Charity. They are measured on the basis of their recoverable amount.
- n) Creditors
Creditors are amounts owed by the Charity. They are measured at the amount that the Charity expects to have to pay to settle the debt.
o) Taxation
The Charity is a registered charity, and as such is entitled to certain tax exemptions on income and profits from investments, and surpluses on any trading activities carried on in furtherance of the Charity’s primary objects, if these profits and surpluses are applied solely for charitable purposes.
- p) Significant accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgements are periodically evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including, expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Legacies have been accounted for as income where the receipt of the legacy is considered probable through:
-
confirmation received from the representatives of the estate that probate has been granted;
-
the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate to pay the legacy; and
-
all conditions attached to the legacy have been fulfilled or are within the Charity’s control.
Page 24 of 29
Trustee’s Annual Report for Frimley Health Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022
As at 31 March 2021, in addition to the legacy income that has been included in the accounts, the Charity expected to benefit from a number of legacies from estates for which these conditions were not met.
- q) Ultimate parent undertaking and controlling party
The immediate and ultimate parent undertaking and controlling party is Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust. The Charity results have not been consolidated within the accounts of Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust on the basis of materiality.
2. Related Party Transactions
The Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust is the beneficiary of the Charity. The Charity has provided funding to the Trust for approved expenditure made on behalf of the Charity. This funding amounted to £1,808,000 (2020/21 ‐ £1,209,000) and is shown as expenditure from charitable activities.
During the year none of the members of the Foundation Trust’s Board of Directors or key management, staff or person(s) related to them have undertaken any material transactions with, or been beneficiaries of, the Charity.
The amounts owed to the Charity by the Corporate Trustee as at 31 March 2021 was £2,714 (31 March 2020 £1,153). Amounts owed to the Corporate Trustee by the Charity as at 31 March 2021 were £47,966 (31 March 2020 £49,190). There is no security over the balances.
