Foreword by the Chair of the Charity Trust Committee
2020/21 has been a very challenging year for us all, but none more so than our hardworking NHS Trust colleagues who stepped forward and continued to deliver outstanding care throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The charity also rose to the challenge that lay ahead and I am very pleased to be presenting their work within this 2020/21 Annual Report on behalf of the Trustee of East & North Hertfordshire Hospitals’ Charity.
Despite lockdowns, restrictions and cancelled events, this year has been exceptional: we have received over £1.7m in income thanks to the overwhelming generosity, kindness and hard work of our supporters, volunteers and staff.
We are also grateful to have received a whole host of invaluable ‘Gifts in Kind’ which were donated by the local community to support our Trust during the COVID-19 pandemic. Gifts given to the charity ranged from hot meals, iPads, groceries, scrubs, knitted items and comfort items. These played a vital role in motivating and supporting our NHS staff as well as patients and were valued at £436k.
One of our more humbling forms of income comes from the legacies of patients who have received outstanding care and compassion within the Trust. They have kindly shown their gratitude and appreciation by leaving the charity a gift in their estate. This year these benevolent individuals gave more than £437k in legacies to support our medical services which will benefit patients and their families long into the future.
Our charitable fundraising activity has enabled us to spend £1.07m on projects ranging from the smallest: an ice lolly for staff in PPE on a hot day, to the largest: the completion of our Lister Neonatal Big Build - creating a home from home for our families, whilst their tiny babies are being expertly cared for by our dedicated unit staff.
Highlights include the overwhelming success of our #HereForEachOther appeal which has funded a wide variety of projects to support our hardworking and dedicated NHS Trust colleagues. We directly benefited from the
achievements of one remarkable man: Sir Captain Tom Moore. His amazing fundraising for NHS Charities Together has facilitated many staff wellbeing initiatives including communal catering areas and the creation of beautiful spaces where our hardworking staff can rest, relax and refuel.
NHS Charities Together funding has also enabled us to set up new projects to enhance care for patients and families, including a new Butterfly Volunteer Support Coordinator role, a Family Liaison service and a Mental Health Youth worker role to provide additional care for children and young people out in the community. This has been delivered alongside maintaining most of our business as usual activities, including purchasing capital equipment to support gold standard treatment and care such as a Biotec laser system for ablation of recurring bladder tumours.
The charity’s Butterfly Volunteer Service, which provides companionship and care to end-of-life patients at the Lister, had their work recognised in June 2020 by being awarded the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest accolade a voluntary service can receive from the Queen. The Butterfly volunteers stepped up even further during this challenging year and supported many patients and families when visiting restrictions were heightened in our hospitals due to the pandemic.
We left the 2020-21 financial year in a third lockdown, and we were and remain very proud of all we achieved during this unpredictable year. We are as focussed and determined as ever to help the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust continue to provide high quality patient care through recovery and beyond.
Thank you
Bob Niven
Chair of the Charity Trustee Committee on behalf of the Corporate Trustee

About the charity
The Trustee presents its annual report and financial statement audited by the independent auditor for the year ended 31 March 2021, which has been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities statement of Recommended Practices (FRS 102).
East and North Hertfordshire Hospitals’ Charity exists to enhance the experience for all patients within the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust (ENHT). The four hospitals we support are the Lister in Stevenage, the New QEII in Welwyn Garden City, Hertford County in Hertford and Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC) in Northwood, with more than 550,000 people cared for at our hospitals every year.
We raise funds to purchase the very best equipment, cutting-edge research and to purchase those special extras - all to ensure our patients receive gold-standard treatment and care.
Importantly, we only fundraise for projects that are outside of statutory funding responsibilities of the Trust - everything we do goes above and beyond.
As a charity we are fortunate to receive support from patients saying thank you for the care they received, friends and family that wish to remember a loved one, dedicated fundraisers taking part in a whole host of events, trusts, foundations and corporates that believe in our vision, and legacies from those that are passionate about ensuring our work continues in the future.
As we leave the financial year we reflect on all that we have achieved for our outstanding NHS Trust colleagues: with our supporters, major donors, corporate and community friends we have been able to support them through this pandemic, into recovery and beyond. We are immensely proud of all that we have achieved in the most challenging of circumstances.
Thank you.

Our performance
We said we would...
Raise funds through safe and cost effective methods that do not expose our staff, donors and supporters to COVID-19 risks
Cultivate new donors and supporters identified during the #HereForEachOther appeal
Increase brand awareness at our hospitals and in the community
Rebrand our appeals programme and identified a new major project to be launched January 2021
We did it!
Most of our face to face community and challenge events were cancelled. However, we held online raffles, auctions, and virtual events including Herts Health Ride and Moor Park 10k. We created opportunities for online gifting so people could support us without coming onto site and introduced new text to donate codes and contactless donation boxes.
Our community has been amazing throughout the lockdowns and restrictions of 2020/21 and gave very generously throughout our #HereForEachOther campaign. We received over 2,600 unique donations for our appeal and raised £302,349 in total.
Our brand has benefited from the national NHS Charities Together profile which has raised awareness of charitable giving to hospitals. We have also recruited a Communications and Engagement Officer and have seen a fantastic increase in press coverage as a result.
We created new compelling appeals with strong branding and messaging, including our #HereForEachOther appeal, Better Beginnings for Baby appeal, Mount Vernon Cancer Care appeal and Helping Little Heartbeats appeal which was featured in the local media and ITV news.
We have also worked to develop a new appeal, chosen by our clinical colleagues, which will be launched next year.
We have worked closely with our Trust partner and NHS colleagues throughout 2020/21 to deliver wellbeing and comfort initiatives to all staff working throughout the pandemic.
Strengthen our Trust partnership
Proactively increase the value and number of applications made to Trusts and Foundations
Continue to steward and deliver excellent donor care to ensure our donors have increased lifetime value
We coordinated food deliveries, comfort packs, funded wellbeing and complementary therapies, reward and recognition items for the clinical teams and supported Trust staff network events with raffle prizes, awards and merchandise.
Our dedicated Trust and Foundation fundraiser approached over 150 Trust and Foundations for support. We have successfully secured multi-year funding for the Butterfly Volunteer Service, Neonatal, #HereForEachOther, Helping Little Heartbeats appeal and the MVCC cancer appeal.
We continued to provide excellent donor care and although we were unable to meet donors face to face we continued our stewardship via telephone calls, Zoom meetings and Christmas updates.

Art and refurbishment: creating beautiful spaces inside and out
This year we funded art, refurbishments and special projects to improve staff wellbeing and patient experience. We created beautiful spaces for our patients, staff and visitors to enjoy, including:
Artlife @ The Lister
We provided £9k seed funding for The Artlife gallery, a bespoke space within the Lister hospital which was created for our local community to display and sell their artwork. The art displayed is by local artists and varies from local scenes, wildlife and beautiful flowers, to local prints. Artlife aims to bring art, beauty and music into the hospital.
Lister Macmillan Cancer Centre Garden
The charity was delighted to refresh the garden at the cancer centre, which is a focal point for patients undergoing chemotherapy. A willing band of volunteers came in to plant up the garden during the brief respite from restrictions last autumn to create a beautiful outdoor space for patients to enjoy.
14
£22k
‘Hospitals can be intimidating places. Having artwork around helps to create a more inviting and soothing environment for patients, staff and visitors. It is of huge benefit to everyone.’ - Dagmar Louw, Artlife Committee Member
15
Training and wellbeing: initiatives to enable staff to go above and beyond
This year, we were prouder than ever to support the wellbeing of more than 6,000 hardworking staff and their partner colleagues, through our #HereforEachOther project.
We
-
Refurbished the Lister coffee lounge for staff to relax and refuel in a restful bright setting.
-
Bought 1,000 informational photos to be worn outside of PPE for patients to see who was beneath all the protective clothing. This enabled very poorly patients to feel connected with our NHS colleagues under intense protective conditions.
-
Purchased 2,000 staff wellbeing boost boxes to provide a treat and snack before or after a busy shift.
-
Funded reward and recognition initiatives including 1,000 critical care badges designed by Dr Kate Flavin.
-
Provided 1,500 ice lollies to our colleagues as light relief from PPE on a hot summer’s day.
-
Began a staff room refurb project which will see 83 staff rooms updated to provide comfort to our staff over the next year.
Finally, we sought and distributed over £435,980 of Gift in Kind donations which made a hard day a little easier for our NHS colleagues. They included sandwiches, hot meals, hand creams, water bottles, bread and groceries.

‘It seemed such a tiny thing but I saw my food and I knew I didn’t have to think about what I was going to eat that night.’ - A member of staff
17
Medical equipment, technology, capital and gifted assets to enhance patient experience
The charity worked with our clinical colleagues to identify and purchase equipment to support gold standard treatment and care, including:
-
A respiratory diagnostic machine to benefit asthmatic patients.
-
A hand held scanner, to aid cannulation for chemotherapy patients.
-
A Rapid Arc portable scanner for vascular access to provide a more comfortable experience for patients.
-
A Biotec laser system to support patients with recurring bladder tumours.
Big Build
Despite the pandemic we were also thrilled to spend £303,505 to complete our Lister Neonatal Big Build. The project was devised by our Lister Neonatal Unit Families Group to create a new kitchen and lounge area for parents to rest and relax in, whilst their baby is expertly cared for on our neonatal unit.
18
£405k
The group’s chairman Glyn Doggett, whose son Max was born at Lister 12 weeks premature, said: ‘On behalf of the Lister Neonatal Families Group and neonatal unit, we want to thank all those who donated or gave their time to raise money for this project. This new build has been created by parents for parents and we hope it provides a place of rest and somewhere to pause and relax during what can be a very difficult time.’
19
Support services and smaller items
We also spent £369,507 on smaller items of equipment and items that improve the patient experience throughout the Trust, including:
-
3 electronic recliner chairs to enhance patient comfort.
-
Special post-operative bras at the New QEII to provide comfort & support to patients following mastectomy and reconstruction.
-
Bariatric chairs for the radiology waiting area to enhance patient comfort.
-
“Saying GoodBye” books and USB sticks for photos for bereaved parents.
-
80 pager/bleep systems at the QEII and Lister to help ease congestion and patient queues.
Digital connections project
The past year has seen many patients in our hospitals having no contact with their family or friends anxiously waiting at home whilst in lockdown. Thanks to the local community we were able to provide 56 Samsung tablets to be used by the family liaison service to keep families connected, especially those who were unable to use digital communications, and to alleviate loneliness and isolation caused by having no visitors.

£370k
‘We were in full PPE, we looked like astronauts in front of them but it gave them relief to be on a video call with their relative. Their loved one was able to listen to them and hear their voice - they could say hi, even though their loved one was not responding.’ - Jean Rono, Critical Care Sister
‘It was just priceless.’ - A grateful family member
21
Research projects: pioneering research to help drive innovation
Each year the charity supports a wide variety of research programmes and staff can apply for funding to undertake projects that will help improve the experience of patients across all of our services.
One of the cutting-edge projects we funded is ScarWork - a service for cancer survivors experiencing adverse effects of surgery and/or radiotherapy, led by Beverley de Valois, researcher in integrative medicine.
22
£90k
‘Research is vital to help us understand diseases and to find the best treatments. The results will shape the best way to look after our patients.’ - Dr Phillip Smith, Associate Director of Research
23
Volunteering projects: providing extra support to patients and staff
The charity funds different volunteer initiatives throughout the Trust to improve patient experience on the wards. They provide activities including therapy dogs, musicians,
beauticians and arts & crafts. We also fund the Mount Vernon Community Engagement team and our award winning Butterfly Volunteer Service.
Butterfly Volunteer Service
In the Birthday Honours list for 2020, we were thrilled to hear our Butterfly Volunteer Service was to receive the highest award for volunteering - The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service - in recognition of their work giving companionship and care to end-oflife patients. The Butterflies supported 806 patients at the end of their lives between April 2020 and March 2021.
24
£143k
‘The Butterfly Volunteer Service is so important. Our wonderful volunteers provide companionship to end-of-life patients when loved ones can’t be there. The volunteers will also support families and friends at that most difficult time. They are incredible.’ - Angela Fenn, Butterfly Volunteer Service Co-ordinator
25
Structure, governance and management
The Charity has a Corporate Trustee, the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust. The NHS Trust Board of Directors, which comprises six Non-Executive Directors (including Trust Chair) and five Directors, represent the NHS Trust in this matter. The NHS Trust Board, as Corporate Trustee, delegates responsibility to a Board Committee, the Charity Trustee Committee (CTC). This committee meets at least four times a year and the Chair of the Committee reports to the Trust Board, as Corporate Trustee, following each meeting.
The strategy of the East & North Hertfordshire NHS Trust Charitable Fund is to support East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust by providing funds to benefit patients including providing staff training to further develop our services and support staff to feel valued. It does this by purchasing supplementary and complementary equipment or services that the Trust is unable to provide funding for through exchequer sources. The Charity carries out fundraising activities and relies upon the generosity of patients and their relatives and other donors who are familiar with, or who are sympathetic and generous in their support to their local NHS service.
The Head of Charity is responsible for the day to day management of charitable funds, working with individual fund advisors to ensure the funds are spent in line with service priorities and donor wishes. The Trustee relies on these staff to ensure the effective use of charitable funds earmarked for their clinical areas by applying their local or specialist knowledge.
Trustee responsibility in relation to the financial statements
The Charity Trustee is responsible for preparing a Trustees’ Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Charity Trustee to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
the financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The Trustee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and of the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for the safeguarding of the assets of the Charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The Trustee is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Charity and financial information included on the Charity’s website in accordance with legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements.
Constitution, objects and power
The Trustee has been appointed under section 11 of the NHS and Community Care Act 1990. The East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust Charitable Funds held on trust are registered with the Charity Commission, number 1053338. The objectives of the Charity are prescribed by section 93 of the National Health Service Act 1977 - in particular for any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Service wholly or mainly for the service provided by the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust. All new Trustees are given appropriate induction on their responsibilities as a Trustee, as laid down in guidance by the Charity Commission.
Risk management
The Charity Trustee Committee, on behalf of the Trustee, ensures that the Charity has met its obligations or risk management as set out in the Trust’s Risk Management Strategy. It has a framework for risk identification and has reviewed the strategic business and operational risks that the Charity faces. The Trustee regularly reviews the risks and the Charity Management Team ensure actions are taken to mitigate the risks and monitor these. The Charity continued to review and strengthen its governance arrangements during 2020/21.
Public benefit statement
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 and have due regard for the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. Our Charity’s objective is to support any charitable purpose relating to East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, including research.
The Trustees ensure that this purpose is carried out for public benefit by working to the following aim. ‘Our Charity’s core function is to make a positive impact on patient care within our Trust. We continue to help our hospitals innovate, improve and, most importantly, provide excellent care to our community above and beyond NHS funding. By supporting great science, excellent patient care and staff wellbeing within the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are helping our local community to be healthier by providing the best care we can.’
26
The Charity does not provide facilities directly to the public but provides facilities for the hospital and, in so doing, for the patients and staff of the hospitals.
The Trustee also excludes companies that derive more than 10% of their revenues from the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, armaments, gambling, high interest rate lending or pornography.
Reserves and reserve policy
The Trustee recognises its obligation to ensure that funds received by the Charity should be spent effectively in accordance with the funds’ objectives. The Charity’s reserves comprise of those funds that are freely available for its general purposes. The reserves are held at a level that will ensure the charity can pay their committed expenditure. The Trustee considers it prudent that reserves should be sufficient to avoid the necessity of realising fixed assets held for the Charity’s use.
Investment policy
The Investment Policy is to ensure the creation of sufficient income and capital growth to enable the Charity to carry out its purposes consistently year by year with due and proper consideration of future needs and maintenance of, if possible, an enhancement of the value of the invested funds while they are retained. With regard to investments, the Trustee excludes the tobacco sector, as defined by those companies that derive their income from such trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities
Research projects
The Charity funded research expenditure of £89,569 including specific research projects at the Mount Vernon Cancer Centre, one year’s costs of doctoral research studies and publishing costs for research.
Art and refurbishment
This year we spent £21,685 on art projects, refurbishments and wellbeing projects to inspire better health with the aim of improving staff wellbeing, patient care, decreasing length of hospital stays and creating beautiful spaces for our patients, staff and visitors to enjoy.
27
Training and wellbeing
Staff education and wellbeing spend totalled £43,481 . This additional support from the charity helped our NHS colleagues go above and beyond statutory requirements. Due to the Covid crisis many staff were redeployed and their focus was on patient care, and as such courses and conferences were cancelled. However we did fund a manikin for simulator NG and tracheostomy skills training.
Cutting edge medical equipment, technology and donated assets
The charity funded £405,080 of highly technical pieces of equipment, donated assets and capital projects including FeNo - a respiratory diagnostic machine that will benefit asthmatic and potential asthmatic patients and Biotec laser system for Trans Urethral Laser Ablation of recurring bladder tumours and two milk warming machines to support new babies.
Support services, smaller equipment and items
The charity spent £369,507 on equipment and items that improve the patient experience throughout the Trust, including a critical care wobble unit, Zeta double sofa and refurbishment of two clinical bays to allow patients to wait in an enhanced, Covid secure environment.
Volunteering projects
The total Charity expenditure on voluntary services and activities was £117,490 for MVCC, and £25,477 at the Lister , including Stay in Touch initiatives, Boredom Buster magazines, our Butterfly Volunteer Service and Mount Vernon Community Engagement team.
Governance and overhead costs
Governance and overhead costs for raising funds were £77,354 towards the cost of raising funds and £159,458 for charitable activity which consists of finance support staff costs, stationery, audit fee and salary costs for the Charity.

Finance report
In the 2020/21 financial year the Charity received a total income of £2.2m: £1.8m of donations, grants and legacy income, £344k from other trading activities and investment income of £59k. The Charity is indebted to the generosity of patients, their families and carers, well-wishers and friends who have donated so generously to the work of the Charity.
The overall financial performance of the Charity recorded a net increase in funds of £908k compared to the previous year due to the response to the pandemic. The valuation of the investment fund has been valued at £680k higher than at the start of the year. This increase is due to the recovery on investment following the impact of COVID-19 on market performance.
Events since the year end and future plans
The Trustee does not expect any significant changes in the objectives of the Charity in the forthcoming year and intends to continue to manage all charitable income and expenditure within best practice guidelines of the Charities Commission. The Trustee continues to be mindful of the impact that NHS priorities may have on current charitable fund priorities.

EAST AND NORTH HERTFORDSHIRE NHS TRUST CHARITABLE FUND
Notes to the Accounts
Note 1 Accounting policies
(a) Basis of preparation and assessment of going concern
The accounts (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 the 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 (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Charities Act 2011.
The Charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.
The Trustee considers that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
(b) Funds structure
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or trust deed. There are ten restricted funds held by the Charity, and the names of the funds and purpose is stated in note 13.1 to the accounts.
Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the Trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the Trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose.
(c) Income recognition
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Donations are recognised when the Charitable Trust has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the Charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the granting of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been transferred to the charity.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. This is normally upon notification by our investment advisor of the dividend yield of the investment portfolio.
(d) Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings. For more information on this attribution refer to note (f) below.
Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objects of the Charitable Trust. In the case of an unconditional grant offer this is accrued once the recipient has been notified of the grant award. The notification gives the recipient a reasonable expectation that they will receive the one-year or multi-year grant. Grant awards that are subject to the recipient fulfilling performance conditions are only accrued when the recipient has been notified of the grant and any remaining unfulfilled condition attaching to that grant is outside of the control of the Trust.
(e) Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred.

EAST AND NORTH HERTFORDSHIRE NHS TRUST CHARITABLE FUND
Notes to the Accounts (cont.)
(f) Allocation of support and governance costs
Support and governance costs have been allocated between expenditure on raising fund and charitable activities. Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the Charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs.
Governance costs and support costs relating to charitable activities have been apportioned based on the number of individual grant awards made in recognition that the administrative costs of awarding, monitoring and assessing research grants, salary support grants and postgraduate scholarships are broadly equivalent. The allocation of support and governance costs are analysed in note 3.4.
(g) Costs of raising funds
The costs of generating funds consist of Fundraiser salaries, merchandise purchases, raffle prizes and lotto winnings as well as direct costs to events as shown in note 3.1. Also included is the allocated support and governance costs.
(h) Charitable activities
Costs of charitable activities include allocated governance costs, capital expenditure and an apportionment of support costs as shown in note 3.2.
(i) Intangible fixed assets and amortisation
All assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and valued at historical cost. Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated useful lives. The Charity have not recorded any assets for 2020/21
(j) Fixed asset investments
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
The main form of financial risk faced by the Charity is that of volatility in equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic conditions, the attitude of investors to investment risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities and within particular sectors or sub sectors.
(k) Realised gains and losses
All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities.
