_**OBJECTIVES**_ 

The objectives of the Charity are to hold funds upon trust and to apply the income and, at the trustee’s discretion, the capital for any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Service wholly or mainly for the services provided by The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. 

## _**REVIEW OF THE YEAR’S ACTIVITIES**_ 

The Covid 19 pandemic has proved to be a time of great impact both for and on the Charity. Our donors, principally throughout the local community, were incredibly generous through the period of lockdown; at the same time the call on the Charity’s resources was significant, principally in providing support for staff wellbeing.  This has been reflected in our income and expenditure since 2019. The ongoing effect of this generosity at the time has been a subsequent reduction in donations to the Charity, a pattern that has been reflected across many NHS embedded charities. In conjunction with this, widespread working from home arrangements for many workers has meant that our income from businesses over this time has almost completely disappeared. Lastly our ability to hold or participate in traditional fundraising events has been severely affected. 

I am pleased to report however that we have taken a number of innovative approaches to these challenges to ensure that our income and expenditure is protected as far as is possible. We must also acknowledge NHS Charities Together contribution to supporting us, and all other NHS Charities, through this period. 

The Charity exists to fulfil its funding objectives, the fundraising activity that we undertake is to service those objectives. As such, we are not a ‘fundraising’ organisation, but an organisation committed to fulfilling our charitable objectives and we raise funds to allow us to do that. 

In the face of a very challenging fundraising environment, we have refocussed our efforts on to delivery of projects within the Trust and this has allowed a more focussed fundraising effort. The principal project throughout 2021/22 has been the development and delivery of a Maternity Bereavement Suite within the Trust. This is a sizeable project costing over £400,000. We have agreed to fund this jointly with the Trust, to enable the unit to be built and operated more quickly. Concentrating on this area has allowed us to maintain income as it has involved focussed, direct fundraising activity to a specific audience, not general income generation as we have previously carried out. 

At the end of 2021/22 we have very nearly completed the fundraising for the project and building is underway. The suite will open in the spring of 2022. Not only did we focus on a targeted audience to generate this income, we carried out a number of ‘virtual’ events. As we were unable to participate in the Hillingdon Half Marathon, a virtual event was organised for previous participants. This raised over £20,000, without any of the expenses normally associated with this kind of activity. We have additionally run other seasonal events for participants to do from home, these have been widely taken up by our supporter base. 


3 | P a g e 




The lack of ability to be ‘out and about’ has also allowed us to focus on other areas. I’m pleased to report that our social media coverage has increased significantly across our three platforms. This has been achieved by a focus on publishing compelling and relevant content, mirrored across all media. As a result, our followers see a consistent message, tailored to the platform’s audience. 


We are hopeful that the overall fundraising environment improves to allow us to identify and support other Trust initiatives. There are headwinds expected but I am confident of the Charity’s ability to weather them. 

The trustee reviews the aims, objectives and activities of the Charity on a periodic basis. This covers what has been achieved in relation to the outcomes of the work of the Charity in the previous year. The review assesses the success of key activities and the benefits that have been delivered against the objectives set by the trustee. The review also helps to ensure the aims, objectives and activities remain focused on the Charity’s stated aims and legal purpose. 

The majority of fund balances are held in investments. The Trust’s investment portfolio is constructed in a prudent way appropriate to a charity of this type and is managed by the fund managers Brewin Dolphin Securities Ltd. A balanced approach is taken between growth and income and for the year the portfolio performed in line with The Association of Private Client Investment Managers and Stockbrokers (APCIMS) benchmark. 

## _**OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT**_ 

The trustee confirms it has complied with its duty under section 17 of the Charities Act 2011, the Accounting and Reporting for Charities; Statement of recommended practice (SORP), revised 2015. It has considered the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission and believes that it has followed it. 

The funds have been applied towards benefiting the public in accordance with the objectives of the charity. This is achieved by the Charity supporting a range of charitable and health related activities that included the purchase of additional goods and services above and beyond what is usually provided by the NHS. 

Spend on staff welfare and amenities was £9k (2020/21: £179k) and includes mainly cost towards furniture & cakes for international nurses/wives day. 

Spend on patients' welfare and amenities were £211k (2020/21: £353k). The Charity purchased specific equipment to meet its obligation of public benefit, this includes a Bladders scan Prime plus, a Shock master 300 Portable unit and NeuroPlatform and NeuroBall. 

## _**FINANCIAL REVIEW**_ 

The Annual Accounts show the financial position of the Charity for the year ending 31 March 2022.  The total income for the year was £227k (2020/21: £686k) this includes some of the major donations as below, £32k to paediatrics, £17k for Maternity bereavement suite, £40k donations via Just giving, £42k Legacy donation & £9k was from dividends on investments (2020/21: £10k). 

4 | P a g e 




Total expenditure for the year was £235k (2020/21: £547k) with the majority of this on charitable activities £220k (2020/21: £532k). To further encourage expenditure, the committee has decided that where funds are non-active for a certain amount of time then they will be amalgamated to a general fund where they are more likely to be utilised. The total balance of funds as at 31 March 2022 was £1,113k (2020/21: £1,117k) reflecting a net decrease of £4k. This balance of funds is considered by the trustee to be sufficient to meet the known obligations of the Charity. 


The majority of fund balances are held as investments, either shares or stocks, with the remainder in interest bearing accounts. No other fixed assets are held by the Charity. The investments are managed by the fund managers Brewin Dolphin Securities Ltd and are valued using mid-market Stock Exchange prices. The Trust has requested Brewin Dolphin manage the Charity investment funds on a “category risk level 5” basis – cautious with risk; the appropriate investment benchmark being WMA (Wealth Management Association). 

The Charity also benchmarks with members of the NHS Charities Together to ensure it adopts the appropriate balance of risk and return. 

Investments were valued at £788k as at 31 March 2022 representing an in year loss of £4.6k (2020/21: £104k gain) due to depreciation in investment market conditions. The Trustee has established an ethical consideration for investments and has directed Brewin Dolphin to act ethically when investing; this excludes investing into tobacco and alcohol. 

## _**GOVERNANCE**_ 

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is the corporate trustee for the Charity. The Board members of the NHS Foundation Trust are therefore jointly responsible (on behalf of the NHS Foundation Trust) for the management of the Charity.  Collectively the Board contains a wide range of business skills, including accountancy and governance that assist Board members in the oversight of the Charity. 

The Board delegates responsibility for the management of the Charity to an officially constituted Board committee; The Charitable Funds Committee. This meets a minimum of three times a year, is chaired by one of the non-executive directors of the Trust, and holds to account those staff that have direct financial and administrative responsibility for charitable funds. Following changes to governance arrangements that have introduced a board in common across the North West London Acute Collaborative, it has now been agreed that the Trust’s Audit and Risk Committee will approve the Charity’s Annual Report and Accounts on behalf of the Board. 

Appropriately skilled and qualified staff of The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust performed the supporting management and administration of funds, including the accounting and fundraising, for a total cost of £154k (this included a charge of £19k related to governance). Additionally, a fee of £4k was charged for an independent examination on the annual report and accounts. Fundraising will increase over time to offset these costs and put the Charity on a positive footing for the future. 

5 | P a g e 




The Charity Director and the Community Fundraiser are members of staff employed by The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust that is fully funded by the Charity. Remuneration and salary was set by benchmarking against other not for profit organisations. No trustee received any remuneration in respect of his or her services to the Charity during the year. 


The Committee puts policy and procedures in place to ensure income is spent in accordance with donors’ wishes, in line with the charitable objectives and within a reasonable period of time. This includes an authorisation process of requests for grants and support, which always involves a member of the Charitable Funds Committee. At an appropriate level of detail at each of its meetings the Committee also reviews expenditure decisions taken. 

## Reserves Policy 

In 2020-21, the Trust adopted a reserves policy, under which £200k is considered an appropriate level of reserves to ensure that the Charity can continue to meet its objectives and obligations. This level was selected as it covers the running costs of the Charity for a 12 month period. The value of unrestricted reserves as at 31 March 2022 was £744k (2020/21: £686k). It is the intention of the trustee to continue to run the Charity in line with its current aims and objectives. 

## Risk Management 

Board members recognise they are responsible for the Charity’s investments and cash assets. The Charitable Funds Committee has delegated responsibility from the Trust Board and this is set out in a Terms of Reference document. The Committee regularly reviews the activities of the Charity and assesses the major risks to which the Charity is potentially exposed, i.e. financial, operational and reputational and is satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to those risks. 

The Charity’s accounts and financial procedures are subject to internal reviews and any internal audit recommendations are implemented. 

Investments are managed by professional advisors, Brewin Dolphin and have been classified at a level appropriate to this sector, caution with risk including income return. This effectively means the Charity retains a degree of protection in its investment strategy but is also looking for a higher rate of return than would be expected with the lowest risk classification. In doing so the corporate trustee acknowledges the values of the investments are not guaranteed and will fluctuate, but over the medium-term expects an above inflation level of return. 

## Going Concern 

After making enquiries the trustee has a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future. 

Day to day working capital requirements are managed without the use of an overdraft facility. Although expenditure may exceed income in line with the Charity’s aim to reduce reserves this is supported by a strong investment 

6 | P a g e 




portfolio. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. 


## Grants Distribution Policy 

The Charity has both restricted and unrestricted funds. Restricted funds are given to the Charity for purposes specified by the donor and used in accordance with the donor’s wishes. These restricted funds are spent mainly on research and medical equipment. Unrestricted funds are used for general purposes for the benefit of the hospitals not otherwise funded by the NHS. 

The Charity’s £369k restricted funds at the end of the accounting period were 33% of total funds available. Of this and in accordance with the donors’ wishes £17.7k is available to be spent on additional staffing to enhance services and research, £2.3k for the purchase of radiology equipment for the investigation and diagnosis of cancer and £349k is towards the building of a new Rehab unit at Mount Vernon. Unrestricted funds at the end of the accounting period were £744k. There are no specific guidelines attached to the utilisation of these funds 

In some cases individual project grants are made over a period of more than one year. In this instance under the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), the grant is fully recognised in the year it is committed. 

The Trust applies to the Charity for internal investment funding as part of its annual business planning process. From these applications, the Trust selects items it considers eligible for funding by the Charity. The selection is submitted to the Corporate Trustee that considers the merits of each project and chooses the most appropriate. 

The Charity’s policy only provides grant funding to Hillingdon and Mount Vernon Hospitals and not to any other individual or organisation.

## **Statement of trustee’s responsibilities** 

The trustee is responsible for preparing the Trustee’s Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

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

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed; and 

- prepare the financial statements 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 enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustee is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

THE HILLINGDON HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST GENERAL AMENITIES FUND, No. 1056493 

## **Notes to the Account** 

## **Accounting 1.1 Basis of preparation Policies** 

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investments being measured at fair value through income and expenditure within the Statement of Financial Activities. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). The Charity is a public benefit company for the entity of FRS 102 and therefore the Charity also prepared its financial statements in accordance with the 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 (The FRS 102 Charities SORP) and the Charities Act 2011. 



The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest one The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below 

## **1.2 Going Concern** 

After making enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future. 

Day to day working capital requirements are managed without the use of an overdraft facility. Although expenditure may exceed income in line with the Charity's aim to reduce reserves this is supported by a strong investment portfolio. 

As stated on page 7 in the going concern section, the Charity has considered the impact of Covid-19, and does not consider that the virus has had a significant impact on the financial health of the Charity, or its ability to prepare its financial statements on the going concern basis. 

Accordingly, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Income** 

- a) All income is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities as soon as the following three factors can be met: 

   - i) entitlement - arises when a particular resource is receivable or the charity's right becomes legally enforceable; 

   - ii) probability - when it becomes probable that the income will be received; 

   - iii) measurement - when the monetary value of the income can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## b) Legacies & Bequests 

Legacies and Bequests are accounted for as an incoming resource once the receipt becomes probable. This will be once confirmation has been received from the representatives of the estates that payment of the legacy will be made or that property bequeathed will be transferred and once all associated conditions have been fulfilled. 

13 | P a g e 



THE HILLINGDON HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST GENERAL AMENITIES FUND, No. 1056493 



## **1.4 Expenditure** 

The Charity accounts are prepared in accordance with the accruals concept. All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party. 

## a)Cost of raising funds 

These are accounted for on an accruals basis. The cost of raising funds are the costs associated with generating income for the funds held on trust. 

## b)Grants payable 

Grants payable are payments, made to third parties in the  furtherance of the charitable objectives of The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust General Amenities Fund to relieve those who are sick. They are accounted for on an accruals basis where the conditions for their payment have been met or where a third party has a reasonable expectation that they will receive the grant. This includes grants paid to NHS Bodies. 

## c) Support costs 

These are accounted for on an accruals basis and are recharges of appropriate proportions of costs from The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. These costs are allocated between Charitable Activities and Costs of raising funds based on the proportion of time spend on these 

## d) Governance costs 

These are accounted for on an accruals basis. The governance costs comprise all costs attributable to ensuring the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to the audit together with an apportionment of support costs. 

## **1.5 Structure of funds** 

Where there is a legal restriction on the purpose to which a fund may be put, the fund is classified in the accounts as a restricted fund. Funds where the capital is held to generate income for charitable purposes and cannot itself be spent are accounted for as endowment funds. Other funds are classified as unrestricted funds. Funds which are not legally restricted but which the Trustees have chosen to earmark for set purposes are classified funds. The major funds held within these categories are disclosed on notes 10.1 to 10.3. 

With effect from 1 April 2020, the Charity has adopted a revised allocation methodology for support costs and investment income. It is now allocating income relating to gains on investments and costs relating to the running of the Charity across all funds pro-rata by size. This change in policy has no impact on the opening balances at 1 April 2020 

## **1.6 Investment Fixed Assets** 

Investment fixed assets are shown at market value. 

- a)Quoted stocks and shares are included in the balance sheet at mid-market price, ex-dividend. 

- b)Other investment fixed assets are included at trustees' best estimate of market value.

**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
1.7 Realised gains and losses<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


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 opening market value (or date of purchase if  later). Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between market value at the year end and opening market value (or date of purchase if later). 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other shortterm liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’  of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

All other debtor and creditor balances are considered to be basic financial instruments under FRS 102. See notes 8 and 9 for the debtor and creditor notes.

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust General Amenities Fund is a charity domiciled and registered in England and Wales. The registered office is The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Pield Heath Road, Uxbridge, Middlesex, UB8 3NN. 

In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. 

In the view of the trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year.
