Introduction by the Chair of the Charitable Funds Committee

I am pleased to present the annual report and accounts for the Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund for the year ending 31 March 2024.

As a charity we currently have 38 active funds, some of which are split into a range of sub funds, reflecting the diversity of services that Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides. To ensure monies are being spent on the purposes for they were raised or gifted we regularly review fund activity and our spending plans. This is always done within the context of the strategic direction for the healthcare services that the corporate trustee provides.

The net assets of the charity are £1,534,265 (31 March 2023: £1,415,105). This is a net increase of £119,160 from the previous year position. Incoming resources for 2023-24 was £172,001 (2022-23: £38,768.) These are described in more detail later in this report.

Expenditure for the financial year 2023-24 has been £52,841 (2023-24: £55,341). This is also described in more detail later in this report. As a charity we have made a wide range of grants across hospitals, wards and the wider services provided by the Trust. We have improved environments, funded everything from software to plants, creative workshops and specialist staff training. You will find many examples of grants made further into this report.

The help received by the Trust from League of Friends’ charities is hugely valuable. On page 17 you will find more detail on the areas of support received from League of Friends’ charities across the county.

Finally, I would like to thank everyone, for their continued support. Communities and individuals have raised funds in so many innovative ways, cider festivals, birthday parties and raffles to name a few. Others have made donations, left bequests in their wills and local businesses and community groups have supported to enhance the services provided by the Trust. On behalf of the charity and those cared for by the Trust, thank you for everything you do.

There are other excellent charities supporting the NHS services delivered by the Trust working alongside us. Our community hospitals are supported by a network of League of Friends’ charities. They actively fundraise to provide grants to their local hospital for the purchase of medical equipment and a whole range of patient facilities.

The Charitable Fund

The Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund (registration number 1058366) is the reporting charity for:

The funds are currently active. These are all governed by a model declaration of trust for an NHS special purpose charity. The definitions of these different types of fund are as follows.

Unrestricted funds

These are sometimes called general funds. These may be spent at the discretion of the Trustees on the charity objectives. Additionally, unrestricted funds may be designated at the discretion of the trustees. Such monies are earmarked for a specific purpose, such as a named hospital ward, particular service or project. Designated funds can also be undesignated at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds

Also known as special funds, these can only be used in accordance with restrictions imposed when the funds are donated or granted or raised by the charity (such as for a particular hospital or the purchase or maintenance of equipment or facility).

Endowment funds

These are funds donated, usually as a result of a legacy, where the trustees are not allowed to spend the capital element of the donation. The money is held permanently and invested to earn income that in turn can be spent.

Structure, administration and management

The corporate trustee fulfills its legal duty by ensuring that donations and grants received are added to the appropriate fund balance in accordance with the donor’s wishes and that spending of funds is in accordance with the purpose for each fund.

Charitable fund expenditure can be for any charitable purpose relating to the NHS but in the case of the restricted funds, expenditure is limited to the location or service for which the fund was set up. Some of the restricted funds also have special conditions imposed on them. There is 1 permanent endowment fund for which only the cumulative interest can be spent.

The detailed objects for each fund can be found on the Charity Commission website under the linked charities section of the Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust charity details.

The Board as corporate trustee has delegated overall management and responsibility of the charitable fund to the Charitable Fund Committee. The committee is required to:

Non-executive members of the Trust Board are appointed by the governors, and executive members of the Board are appointed by the Foundation Trust Board. Members of the Trust Board and the Charitable Fund Committee are not individual trustees under charity law but act as agents on behalf of the corporate trustee.

The accounting records and the day-to-day administration of the funds are managed by the Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust’s Finance Department.

Risk management

The major risks to which the charity is exposed have been identified and considered. The Charitable Fund Committee has a policy of placing deposits only with specialist charity sector financial institutions or those that meet a strict criteria of risk ratings as assessed by the credit rating agencies. Currently these are the Charities Aid Foundation, CCLA Investment Management Ltd and the Nationwide Building Society. In addition, maximum use is made of the £85,000 covered under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme so that in the event of banking insolvency losses are minimised. The trustees have taken a risk averse approach to investment. The risk management associated with this is covered in the section on investment policy.

All funds are checked before a payment is made to ensure that there is money available to meet expenditure. Fund balances, income and expenditure statements are sent to fund holders monthly. The committee is presented with a statement of income, expenditure, and fund balances at every committee meeting for assurance. The committee is also required to approve any expenditure which is over £1,500. All minutes relating to the Charitable Fund Committee are included within Trust Board papers.

The charity also has a comprehensive set of management guidelines which are reviewed on an annual basis. These empower fund holders to better understand public benefit and to be able to use their funds effectively.

Partnership working and networks

The beneficiaries of the charity are the inpatient and community-based service users of Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is a related party by virtue of being the corporate trustee of the charity. By working in partnership with the Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Charitable Funds are used for the public benefit.

The Charitable Fund has a close working relationship with the League of Friends. We are very grateful for the work they do in supporting the patients and staff at the Trust’s hospitals and community services.

Registered address

The Registered address of the charity is Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund, Carew House, Beacon Technology Park, Dunmere Road, Bodmin, PL31 2QN.

Incoming resources

Total income for the year is £162,568 excluding unrealised gains on investments (2022-23: £38,768). All sites and services across the Trust have benefited from charitable giving in support of our services. Some fantastic examples are a donation of:

Sowenna continues to be generously supported by individuals and charitable organisations. For example, a local fundraiser organised a fundraising evening including an auction and raffle which raised £6,500 for Sowenna. This was topped up by £1,500 from the Lloyds Bank Foundation. The Trust is incredibly grateful for the enormous effort put in by this fundraiser to benefit the Trust’s mental health and young people’s services.

Charitable activities

Charitable activities comprise all the costs incurred in the pursuit of the charitable objectives of the charity. In 2023-24 this was £28,882 (2022-23: £32,908). These figures and those below exclude support costs which are apportioned across all funds (see page 15). Expenditure funded by charitable fund is split into 5 categories. This is summarised in the sections and the chart below.

Patient facilities and welfare

A wide variety of expenditure from charitable funds fall under this category which has supported a range of activities and facilities for patients. Expenditure in 2023-24 was £11,017 (2022-23: £12,883).

Examples of patient welfare expenditure at Sowenna include:

Staff training, support and welfare

Expenditure funded from charitable funds in 2023-24 was £4,294 (2022-23: £1,717).

This expenditure includes support for staff to enhance their skills through training, attendance at conferences or good practice seminars, which in turn have a direct benefit on the treatment of patients.

Team building events designed by teams and training resources are also funded within this category. Social events to thank our volunteer teams for all their hard work during the year have also been funded.

Equipment

Examples from other Trust services include:

Expenditure funded for equipment in 2023-24 was £13,571 (2022-23: £17,812). This category emphasises the extent to which charitable funds are being invested in modern equipment to support the delivery of healthcare.

Items funded in year across our services include:

Raising funds expenditure

Active fundraising activity takes place. However, it is not possible to reliably identify costs that should exclusively be identified and charged to charitable funds apart from some minor nonpay costs. The Charitable Fund also benefits from in-kind resource provided by a Trust employed fundraising manager.

Although some of the funds are used to carry out fundraising events, this is done on a voluntary basis and does not give rise to any associated costs.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2023-24

14

Support costs

Total support costs for 2023-24 is £23,960 (2022-23: £22,182). This includes costs for the running of the charity plus other professional fees. A detailed breakdown of these costs is included in note 11 to the accounts.

NHS Charities are by statute required to reimburse their corporate trustee for the cost of running the charity so that it is not subsidised from public funds. Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund does not employ any staff directly so £20,770 (2022-23: £19,215) represents a recharge for the time that the Trust’s own staff spend on the governance and administration of the charity.

In accordance with Charity Commission guidelines support costs are apportioned across the charitable activities and charged to funds based on their balance at the end of the financial year. This method is used rather than activity apportionment because the trustees consider it is a more equitable treatment. It avoids disadvantaging those funds with high volume, low value transactions.

The Trust will continue to review the level of support costs to ensure that costs charged are reasonable, fairly represent the level of resource dedicated to charitable fund administration, and financial services. The chart below shows historic support costs.

Public benefit

All charities must demonstrate how funds are used for the public benefit. Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund uses its funds to purchase equipment, sustain patient wellbeing, and support staff development. All these activities directly or indirectly benefit members of the public. The fund expenditure also falls within the charitable purposes as set out in the governing document.

Reserves policy

As recommended in the Charity Commission Guidance CC19, the trustees set a reserves policy that is reviewed on an annual basis. The funds are held in the management of Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund. Where historical funds are held, every effort is made to draw up expenditure plans to further the charity’s objectives. The policy states that:

The trustees require the Chief Finance Officer to report the balances on individual funds at each committee meeting.

Grant making policy

The charity’s principal activity is supporting its corporate trustee in the delivery of healthcare. The charity achieves this aim by making grants from both restricted and unrestricted funds. These grants fulfil the public benefit criteria and meet the objective for the fund from which the grant is being made. The categories of expenditure funded from these grants and some specific examples are described in the charitable activities section above.

Grants received

Included within income classified as grants received in year are grants gratefully received from NHS Charities Together. £30,000 has been received to develop the charitable fund’s infrastructure. A further £19,250 was received as part of the funding agreed for projects to address the long-term health and recovery of NHS staff, patients and volunteers impacted by COVID-19.

League of Friends grants received by corporate Trustee

Our community hospitals are supported in Cornwall by a thriving and hardworking network of League of Friends. The League of Friends tirelessly fundraise to help support the delivery of healthcare through the purchase of up-to-date medical equipment and other patient facilities. Their contribution is greatly appreciated.

Where an equipment grant from the League of Friends is agreed the equipment is purchased by the corporate trustee and then the Trust invoices the League of Friends for their grant. This is reflected as grant funded income in the annual accounts of the corporate trustee. A summary of the grants gratefully received from League of Friends’ charities is provided in the table below.

Fundraising report 2023-24

The fundraising function within Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust offers support and guidance to charitable fund holders and teams throughout the organisation. Support is also offered to our inspirational community-based fundraisers. Our staff and their patients increasingly benefit from charitable funds, and engage in team activities to raise funds to enhance the environments they work and deliver care in.

Community

Community support for Sowenna, our child and adolescent mental health unit, continues to grow as we approach its fifth anniversary. We are very grateful that the Sowenna Charitable Fund has been selected as 1 of 3 local charities to benefit from funds raised at Tregothnan’s 2024 open garden weekend: their first event in 5 years.

In November 2023 we gratefully received £5,000 for the children’s epilepsy nursing fund. The Cornish Traction Preservation Club (Tredinnick Rally) generously made the donation on behalf of the parents of a young person receiving support from our Paediatric Epilepsy Nurse Specialist Nursing Team.

We are also very grateful to the Cornwall Eating Disorders Charity who in August 2023, generously donated £5,330.78 to our Children and Young People’s Eating Disorder Service.

Individual fundraising

Billy Dormand is an inspiring fundraiser from Par. Billy who previously raised £10,000 for Fletcher ward, hosted an auction and raffle at St Blazey Football Club in September 2023 to raise funds for Sowenna. Billy raised an astonishing £6,500 on the night, topped up by £1,500 from the Lloyds Bank Foundation.

This takes Billy’s fundraising total across the last 3 years of fundraising for the Trust to a very impressive £20,000. We are proud of Billy’s accomplishments and grateful for his tireless support.

Joe May of Torpoint collected donations at his 90th birthday party in July 2023, raising £350 to be split between the Sowenna Charitable Fund and another local worthy cause. We are thankful to Joe, and all our incredible fundraisers for their kindness and consideration.

Community and events

Sowenna was 1 of 2 official charities with fundraising rights at Royal Cornwall Show in 2023. We are grateful to the show’s organisers for this opportunity, and to the 45 volunteers, the majority of whom were Sowenna staff, who supported our stand. Across the 3-day event we were able to raise awareness of our child and adolescent mental health inpatient services and raise over £2000 for the Sowenna Charitable Fund.

We showcased Sowenna Sounds at the Royal Cornwall Show. Sowenna Sounds is a 17-track album featuring music written and performed by young people during their admission at Sowenna. Many of the young people who took part, had no previous experience with music and sound creation. A parent of one of the young music creators said, “The work that Sowenna does is amazing. There is nothing else like it in Cornwall and it is so needed for our young people.”

As well as playing the music they created, our stand also featured examples of the student’s impressive artwork, clay art, crafts, and textiles, displaying the types of meaningful activities the charity and its generous donors make possible. Thank you to all who supported us at the 2023 show.

The Duloe Ale and Cider Festival Committee support many local charities and causes. Following their annual festival in 2023, the Sowenna Charitable Fund received a generous donation of £1,500 to support the young people in our care.

In September 2023, Truro River Rowing Club, an 8-woman crew took part in the London Great River Race. This is a 22-mile row from Millwall to Ham under London’s famous bridges. In addition to raising money for a new gig, they also made a generous donation to Sowenna.

Hospital League of Friends

Our community hospitals are very fortunate to be supported by a thriving and hardworking network of League of Friends. They tirelessly fundraise to help support the delivery of healthcare through the purchase of up-to-date medical devices, furniture and technology. For example, specialist mattresses, bedside cabinets, gym equipment, iPads and outdoor furniture and garden accessories. All of these improve the care and experience of our patients.

In 2023-24, community hospitals in Bodmin, Camborne Redruth, Bude, Stratton, St Austell, Launceston, Falmouth and Helston benefitted from the contributions of their loyal Leagues of Friends. This afforded us the opportunity to allocate charitable funds to exciting new projects, innovation and research, staff training and development, and initiatives supporting the health and wellbeing of our people and patients.

In memory

We would like to send special thanks to all the individuals, families, and friends who have supported the Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund in memory of someone this year.

NHS Charities Together

In November 2023 we were delighted to learn our system application for £267,320 to fund projects tackling social isolation and loneliness across the county, along with our Trust application for £77,000 to fund internal projects addressing the long-term health and recovery of NHS staff and volunteers impacted by COVID-19, were successful. The £267,320 funding will be shared between projects from Penzance to Bude, with Penlee Family Project, Eden Project, Exercise for Mobility, Pengarth Day Centre, Home Start Kernow, First Light South West and St Petroc’s. These organisations will use the grants to address social isolation and its broader impacts.

New mothers, young people and the older generation across the region will benefit from new or expanding initiatives over the next 2 years. Ellie Orton OBE, Chief Executive of NHS Charities Together, said: “We are thrilled to be supporting people across Cornwall and helping to tackle loneliness in the region through this funding. We hope this extra support we will make a real difference to their lives and help to ease some of the pressures these NHS services are under as a result of the pandemic.”

Funding awarded this year will also enable us to deliver projects to address health inequalities; promote equality, diversity, and inclusion; and support the wellbeing and resilience of our people through our staff equality networks; enhancing outdoor spaces and breakout areas; and improving access to nature for all.

Future plans

We look forward to growing the charity next year, offering our generous donors an improved supporter journey, an enhanced website, branded resources and online giving options thanks to a development grant from NHS Charities Together.

We are excited to explore opportunities to invest in more creative approaches to health, providing choice to our patients by offering appointments in non-traditional clinic settings, optimising care environments with awe-inspiring art and design, and working in partnership with voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations to deliver services in surroundings and spaces conducive to wellbeing and recovery.

Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow the best practice and:

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity, and which enable them to ascertain the financial position of the charity, and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the Trust deed. The trustees are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Notes on the accounts

1. Accounting policies

(A) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at fair value.

The accounts (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 (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund ability to continue as a going concern. There are no material uncertainties affecting the current year’s accounts.

(B) Funds structure

Where there is a legal restriction on the purpose to which a fund may be put, the fund is classified either as a restricted fund or an endowment fund.

Restricted funds are those where the donor has provided for the donation to be spent in furtherance of a specified charitable purpose. Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund restricted funds are generally for specific community hospitals or services provided by Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

Endowment funds arise when the donor has expressly provided that the gift is to be invested and only the income of the fund may be spent. These funds are sub-analysed between those where the trustees have the discretion to spend the capital (expendable endowment) and those where there is no discretion to expend the capital (permanent endowment). The charity has 1 permanent endowment fund called the Allsup Bequest. The fund is not managed on a total return basis.

Those funds which are neither endowment nor restricted income funds, are unrestricted income funds which are sub-analysed between designated (earmarked) funds where the trustees have set aside amounts to be used for specific purposes or which reflect the nonbinding wishes of donors and unrestricted funds which are at the trustees’ discretion, including the general fund which represents the charity’s reserves. The major funds held in each of these categories are disclosed in note 21.

(C) Incoming resources

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable (more likely than not) that the resources will be received and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Where there are terms or conditions attached to incoming resources, particularly grants, then these terms or conditions must be met before the income is recognised as the entitlement condition will not be satisfied until that point. Where terms or conditions have not been met or uncertainty exists as to whether they can be met then the relevant income is not recognised in the year but deferred and shown on the balance sheet as deferred income.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2023-24

27

(D) Incoming resources from legacies

Legacies are accounted for as incoming resources either upon receipt or where the receipt of the legacy is probable.

Receipt is probable when:

If there is uncertainty as to the amount of the legacy and it cannot be reliably estimated then the legacy is shown as a contingent asset until all conditions for income recognition are met.

(E) Incoming resources from endowment funds

The incoming resources received from the invested endowment fund are wholly restricted.

(F) Resources expended and irrecoverable VAT

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to each category of expense shown in the Statement of Financial Activities. Expenditure is recognised when the following criteria are met:

(G) Recognition of expenditure and associated liabilities as a result of grants

Grants payable are payments made to linked, related party or third party NHS bodies and non NHS bodies, in furtherance of the charitable objectives of the funds held on trust, primarily relief of those who are sick.

Grant payments are recognised as expenditure when the conditions for their payment have been met or where there is a constructive obligation to make a payment.

A constructive obligation arises when:

The trustees have control over the amount and timing of grant payments and consequently where approval has been given by the trustees and any of the above criteria have been met then a liability is recognised. Grants are not usually awarded with conditions attached. When they are, however, then those conditions have to be met before the liability is recognised.

Where an intention has not been communicated, then no expenditure is recognised but an appropriate designation is made in the appropriate fund. If a grant has been offered but there is uncertainty as to whether it will be accepted or whether conditions will be met then no liability is recognised but a contingent liability is disclosed.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2023-24

28

(H) Allocation of support costs

Charges are made by Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust for supporting the governance of the charity and the provision of transaction processing services provided by Financial Services department of the Corporate Trustee. The total support costs are apportioned to each fund and sub fund within the reporting charity based on the balance held at the end of the financial year. The analysis of support costs are shown in note 11.

(I) Fundraising costs

The costs of generating funds are those costs attributable to generating income for the charity, other than those costs incurred in undertaking charitable activities or the costs incurred in undertaking trading activities in furtherance of the charity’s objects.

(J) Charitable activities

Costs of charitable activities comprise all costs incurred in the pursuit of the charitable objects of the charity. These costs, where not wholly attributable, are apportioned between the categories of charitable expenditure in addition to the direct costs. The total costs of each category of charitable expenditure include an apportionment of support costs as shown in note 8.

(K) Fixed asset investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument. Fixed asset investments are initially recognised at their transaction value and are subsequently measured at their fair value (market value) as at the balance sheet date. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. Quoted stocks and shares are included on the Balance Sheet at the current market value.

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. Further information on the charities investments can be found in the annual report part of this document.

(L) Debtors

Debtors are amounts owed to the charity. They are measured on the basis of their recoverable amount.

(M) 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. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments, in less than 90 day notice interest bearing savings accounts.

(N) Creditors

Creditors are amounts owed by the charity. They are measured as the amount that the charity expects to have to pay to settle the debt.

Amounts which are owed in more than a year are shown as long-term creditors.

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

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2023-24

29

(P) Pensions

The charity is a grant making charity and has no employees and any pension contribution liabilities that may arise are solely the responsibility of the grant recipient.

2. Prior year comparatives by type of fund

The primary statements provide prior year comparatives in total; this note provides prior period comparatives for the statement of financial activities and the balance sheet for each of the 3 types of fund in the reporting charity.

6. Fund management

There are about 50 staff who manage the various funds of the charity. Each fund holder has delegated powers to spend the funds that they manage in accordance with the guidelines on the use and application of charitable funds which is a policy document that is reviewed by the trustees on an annual basis. The document contains guidance on public benefit and examples of what is and is not deemed to be charitable expenditure. Fund holders can authorise expenditure up to £1,500 providing they have funds available. Any expenditure over £1,500 has to be approved by the Charitable Fund Committee acting on behalf of the trustees.

In accordance with the statement of recommended practice due to the absence of any reliable measurement basis, the contribution of these fund holders is not recognised in the accounts.

11. Allocation of support costs and overheads

Support costs are allocated between charitable activities and mainly consist of charges levied by Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust for the day-to-day governance of the charity including the preparation of the annual accounts and report. There is also a charge for transactional processing and IT support provided by the corporate trustees own financial services department. There is also a fee charged for the independent examination of these accounts and annual report.
