The Trust is the corporate trustee of the Charitsble FurKls govemed by law applicable to Trust. principally the Trustees Act 2000 and also the law applicable to Charities, which is governed by the Charities Act 2011. Until March 2021, the Board of Trustees managed the fijnds on behalf of the corporate trustee. Effective from March 2020 a Charitable Trusteeship Committee was fomied with agreed terms of reference, this committee was subsequentiy renamed to the Charitable Funds Committee in March 2021. Accordingly, from March 2021, the Charitable Funds Committee manages the funds on behalf of the corporate trustee. The Board of Trustees and the Charitable Funds Committee consist of Executive and Non-Executive Directors. Non-Exe¢utive Directors are appointed by the Council of Govemors and Executive Directors are subject to the Trust's recruitment policies. The corporate trustee, as trustee of the funds, has an overall responsibility for the administration and distnbution of the monies. The charitable fvjnds available for spending are allocated to specialties within the Trust's clinical business unit management structure. The Gorporate trustee fulfils its legal duty by ensuring that fvnds are spent in accordance with the objects of each fvjnd. The corporate trustee respects the wishes of our generous donors to benefit patient care and advance the good health and welfare of pab'ents, carers and staff. In the year the committees met on a quarterfy basis where requests for expenditure were discussed and approved. A quarterfy report is received from the Charitable Fund'5 investment brokers on the performance of the portfolio.

Under the scheme of delegated authority, approved by the Board of Directors, the Director of Finance has responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Charitsble Fund. Administratively, a senior member of staff from the Finan￿ Departrnent supported the Charttable Trusteeship Committee and the Charitable Funds Committee from March 2021. The accounting re￿rdS and the day-to-day administrab.on of the funds are dealt with by the Financial Accounts Department TRAINING FOR THE CORPORATE TRUSTEE Members of the Board of Directors are subject to an induction programme on appointment to the Board. Further training is available on request and is provided as and when required. EXPENDITURE AND RESERVES POLICY The expenditure of donated funds shall be conditional upon the goodsl ServI￿S being within the terms of the appropriate fvnd and also that the expenditure does not lead the Charitable Funds into further payments, which have not been agreed and funded. The Charity is funded by donations andlor legacies received from patients, relats'ves, and the general public and other extemal organisations. The overall strategy is to meet its charitable objectives by the following means.. Patients amenities and welfare purchase of small equipment. provision of services and the provision of facilities not nonnally provided by or in addib'on to the normal NHS provision., Stsff amenits'es and welfare- providing stsff facilib'es that improves staff well*eing and also the education of stsff over and above Ythat would nonnally be provided by the NHS; Contributs'ons to NHS expenditure - anything which does not fit in to the above, e.g. capitsl equiprnent {over £5,000)., arml Research and Developmént. Reserves are held by the Charity to meet the future potential commitments of the Funds held. The overall policy aim is that donated monies should be spent as soon as practicable In line with the purpose of the charity, as opposed to a deliberate programme of building up capital investments. In practice, this will ensure that the Charitable Funds will aim to spend, each year, all income received including investment income. The corporate trustee considers the total funds of the Charitable Funds should be at a minimum of £200,000 whilst the reserves should not reduce below £95,000. At 31 March 2021 the Charitable F,unds currently has total funds of £1,980,000 including reserves of £1,528,000 and accordingly holds an excess over the minimum reserves. The aim is that the level of expenditure is to increase over and above new donabons during the course of a reasonable timeframe to achieve these levels of minimum protected investrnents. In 2021r22 the corporate trustee agreed £1,330,000 of the existing unrestricted funds to be designated funds. The expenditure and reserves policy will continue to be reviewed in the future as conSide￿d ne￿$Sary. In addition, where it is prudent to do so, the Charitable Funds will agree to fund one off projects from reserves. This policy over time will reduce the size of the investment portfolio, assuming the continuance of the past level of donations. The corporate trustee will be advised on the level of

investments the Charitable Funds needs to protec( in order to support the recurrent expenditure from such sources. The following athhorisation limits were applied during the year. All expenditure on Charitable Funds was approved by the Charitable Trusteeship Committee or the Chantable Funds Committee. A bid had to be submitted on the approved documentation and signed by the authorised signatory depending on the fund. signatories include.. a Clinical Director, General Manager, Chief Operating Officer. Associate Director of Operations, Director of Operations, Director of Finance, Associate Director of Nursing, Head of Midwifery, Director of Nursing and Quality. Chief Executive and members of the Executive team who are not Executive Directors nor Non Executive Directors of the Trust. PARTNERSHIP WORKING AND NETWORKS The Trust is the main beneficiary of the Charity and is a related paty by virtue of being the corporate trustee of the Charity. By working in partnership with the Trust, the Charitable Funds are used to best effect. When deciding upon the most beneficial way to use Charitable Funds, the corporate trustee has regard to the main activits'es. objecbves, strategies and plans for the Trust. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY The corporate trustee is responsible for managing risk issues for the Charity, which 18 underpinned by the internal policies and proCedU￿S of the Trust, induding.. Code of Conduct and Code of Accountsbility., Standing Orders; Standing Financial Instructions and Scheme of Delegab'on; and Fraud Policy and Response Plan. The Charity has agreed ongoing to adopt all Trust policAes where relevant. This list of documents is not exhaustive but govems how the corporate trustee must operate and the issues it must consider. However, the corporate trustee must also be aware of the statutory framework in which it operates, specifically in relation to the charitable status as well as the wider NHS environment. wrth regards to investments. the corporate trustee adopts a managed frjnd approach by engaging a professional advisor. This is detailed further in the Investment Policy below. In addition to these, the corporate trustee considers speofic risk issues on a regular and on-going basis. As part of the business planning exercise carried out during the year, the corporate trustee has considered the major risks to which Barnsley Hospital Charity is exposed. Systems have been reviewed and steps identified to mib.gate those risks. Consideration of k%vo risks within the Covid- 19 climate are detailed below.. l) Future levels of Income The Charty is reliant on donations to allow tt to make grants to NHS bodies. If income falls, then the charity would not be able to make as many grants or enter into longer term commitments with the NHS bodies it supports. The committee mitigates the risk that income will fall by engaging with the Fundraising Department. That Department comprises dedicated fundraising experts vtho wort with the Trust as well as the Charrty to provide a co-ordinated approach to raising funds. Fundraising activity is

gularly benchmarked against our peers and thorough rewews are undertaken after major campaigns and events to understand what worked well and how things could be done better. The public's support of the NHS has been demonstrated through increased donations during the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly the nats'onal emergency appeal managed by NHS Charities Together. ii) Fall In Investment returns The Charity generates additional income from investing elements of its cash balances so the committee considers the loss of investment income to be a major financial risk. This risk is increased as a result of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the stock market. The risk is mitigated by retsining expert investrnent managers, hamng a diversified investment portfolio and regularly reviewing that portfolio. The committee makes use of benchmarking Info￿atiOn vthen reviewing the portfolio. INVESTMENT POLICY The corporate trustee reviews the investment policy on 8 regular basis and considers that the most appropriate policy to adopt is one which is consistent V￿th the Standing Financial Instructions of the Trust and as such the Investment Policy of the Charity has been produced in line with these instructions, Donated Funds pending their expenditure" shall b8 invested by the Director of Finance subject to statutory requirements. principally, the 1961 Trustee Investment Act as superseded by the Trustees Act 20IJO implemented from 1 Feb 2001. This Act imposes a duty on the corporate trustee when exercising its powers of investment to consider the need for diversification in order to reduce the risk of loss should an investment fail. In addition, the corporate trustee, in line with the ethos of promoting patient care, attempts to ensure that all investments are ethically and environmentally sound, and are not opposed to the 'purpose' of the Charity. In particular, the corporate trustee requires that no investment be made directly into companies involved in the tobacco industy. This restriction exdudes collectsve investments. In all other respects, the corporate trustee considers that it should adopt a balanced attitude to investment risk. In adopting this profile, the corporate trustee is aware that capital and income will ffluctuate in value in order to obtain the potential for greater medium to long-tenn benefits. The Charitable Funds have a designated fund Trhthereby the investment advisors are responsible for the day-to-day movements in investments (this is subject to review every three years or sooner). The advisors for the last financial year were Investec Wealth and Investment. The policy is to seek a balanced retum from income and capital growth at a moderate level of risk. The portfolio was moved into the Master Portfolio se￿￿ of Investec Wealth and Investment Ltd on 14 March 2016. In 2020121 as the portfolio value ex￿eded £150.000, it was transferred into the Bespoke Discretionary Managed Service in De￿rnber 2020. As at 31st March 2021, the portfolio was valued at £338,375 (as at 31 MarGh 2020 £267,660). This represented a gross retum of 300kn compared to 21% for the benchmark. On a net basis, the portfolio delivered 28.8Yo.

Independent auditor’s report to the Trustees of Barnsley Hospital Charity

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Barnsley Hospital Charity (“the charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet and related notes, including the accounting policies in note 1.

In our opinion the financial statements:

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 trustees have 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 trustees’ 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:

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

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:

22

kpmg

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.

We did not identify any additional fraud risks

In determining the audit procedures we took into account the results of our evaluation and testing of the operating effectiveness of some of the Charity-wide fraud risk management controls.

Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to non-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, and discussed with the directors 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.

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 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.

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 trustees are responsible for the other information, which comprises the Trustees’ 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:

23

kpmg

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:

We have nothing to report in these respects.

Trustees’ responsibilities

As explained more fully in their statement set out on page 11, the trustees are 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

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees 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 trustees 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 trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
