Introduction

I am pleased to present the Annual Report and Accounts for the Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund for the year ending 31 March 2025.

As a charity we currently have 42 funds, some of which are split into a range of sub funds, reflecting the diversity of services that Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides.

The net assets of the charity are £1,790,364 (31 March 2024: £1,534,265). Incoming resources for 2024-25 were £391,572 (2023-24: £172,001) and expenditure for the year has been £135,473 (2023-24: £52,841). Income and expenditure are described in more detail later in this report.

As a charity, we have successfully facilitated a diverse range of grants across hospitals, wards, and the broader services provided by the Trust. Our efforts have led to improved environments, funding initiatives that range from art workshops to plants and gardening, from good practice seminars for staff development to furniture for patient comfort.

This year, grants also include funding for staff training and development, covering expenses for attending conferences and good practice seminars, as well as support for team-building and health and wellbeing events.

Our inclusive approach to grant facilitation ensures that all voices are heard, allowing us to address the unique needs of our diverse staff and patient population. These initiatives foster a healthier and more cohesive work environment, which directly benefits patient care, for healthy staff lead to healthier patients. You can explore numerous examples of these grants later in this report.

We are also excited to announce our rebranding, complete with a fresh new logo that reflects our commitment to innovation and inclusivity. This rebranding aligns with our mission to enhance the services provided by the Trust and engage more effectively with our community.

Additionally, we are fortunate to collaborate with other exceptional charities that support the NHS services offered by the Trust. Our community hospitals are bolstered by an amazing network of League of Friends’ charities, which actively engage in fundraising to secure grants for their local hospitals. These funds are essential for acquiring medical equipment and enhancing various patient facilities.

The contributions from League of Friends’ charities are of immense value to the Trust. More details on the support received from these charities across the county can be found on pages 19 onwards.

In closing, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone for their ongoing support. Communities and individuals have raised funds through countless creative means, such as open garden events, Rachel walking 400 miles in 4 weeks, and Eleanor's half marathon, to name but a few (more details can be found on pages 23 to 26). The dedication of individuals, groups, and communities to improving the lives of others is both uplifting and inspiring.

Others have made generous donations or left legacies in their wills, while local businesses and community groups have stepped up to enhance the services provided by the Trust.

A massive thank you to all those who work tirelessly to make this happen. On behalf of the charity and those cared for by the Trust, thank you for all that you do.

Dean Harvey, Chair of the Charitable Fund Committee

Charity rebrand

We are excited to launch our new working name, Cornwall Community NHS Charity. We changed our working name in 2025, to reflect who we are, what we do, and where we do it. We hope this updated and more inclusive brand will help invigorate the charity and make it more accessible, marketable, and recognisable as an NHS charity and not a provision of NHS funding.

This rebrand has been part of a wider charity development project to be more impactful, effective, and higher performing to better serve our beneficiaries, donors and fund-raisers, and is complemented by the tag-line 'enriching health together' and a new logo which visually represents Cornwall as well as our core values of community, connection and care.

==> picture [160 x 178] intentionally omitted <==

This charity development work was made possible thanks to a £30,000 development grant from NHS Charities Together, enabling us for the first time in our history to invest in fundraising, systems, and communications, branding and marketing to take Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund to the next level. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in our branding workshops through Autumn 2024, featuring a diverse range of valuable contributions from staff across Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust and beyond.

The charity’s formal registered name “Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund” is unchanged.

The charitable fund

The Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund (Registration No. 1058366) is the reporting charity for:

permanent
unrestricted fund designated funds restricted funds

----- End of picture text -----

They are all governed by a model declaration of trust for an NHS special purpose charity. The definitions of these different types of funds 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. For example, for a particular hospital or the purchase or maintenance of equipment or facility.

Endowment funds

These are donated funds, 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.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2024-25

7

Structure, administration and management

The corporate trustee fulfils 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 one 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.

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 Board as corporate trustee has delegated overall management and responsibility of the charitable fund to the Charitable Fund Committee.

The committee is required to:

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

Bankers

Banking facilities are provided by Lloyds Bank Plc.

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 in the investment policy section.

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 charity’s registered address is Cornwall Partnership Foundation Trust Charitable Fund, Carew House, Beacon Technology Park, Dunmere Road, Bodmin, PL31 2QN.

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.

Support costs

Total support costs for 2024-25 is £27,671 (2023-24: £23,960). 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 £22,826 (2023-24: £20,770) 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 table 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 on page 14.

Grants received

Included within income classified as grants received in year are grants gratefully received from NHS Charities Together. A further 2 instalments of £19,250 have been 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. Grant instalments of £82,000 and £65,500 have also been received as a result of the Charitable Fund’s successful bid to the NHS Charities Together Greener Communities fund.

League of Friends’ grants received by corporate trustee

Our community hospitals are supported by a thriving and hard-working network of League of Friends. The League of Friends tirelessly fund raise 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 2024-25

The fundraising function within Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is offering widespread support and guidance to charitable fund holders and teams throughout the organisation, and to our inspirational fund-raisers.

Our staff and their patients are increasingly benefiting from charitable funds, and engaging in team activities to raise funds to enhance the environments they work and deliver care in.

Community and events

We celebrated Sowenna’s fifth anniversary in September 2024 and community support for our child and adolescent mental health unit continues to grow. We are very grateful that the Sowenna Charitable Fund was selected as 1 of 3 local charities chosen to benefit from funds raised at Tregothnan Estate’s 2024 open garden weekend, their first event in 5 years, after which we received a donation of £20,000 from Lord Falmouth.

Sowenna are also grateful to The Wheels Committee for donating £1,500 after The Rotary Club of Wadebridge Wheels 24 Classic Car Rally distributing thousands to local good causes, and to the Rotary Club of Redruth for their donation of £200 following a presentation from the charity.

In other funds, the Diana Children’s Community Nursing Team received a donation of £750 from the organisers of the Alstock Music Festival in Bodmin, the Rotary Club of Padstow donated £1,000 to Thriving Together which has placed in our charitable fund for the Special Parenting service, and the members of the Boldventure and Chapelfields Residents Association donated £450 to St Austell Community Hospital’s General Fund. We are honoured to have been chosen as a worthy cause by many local community groups and event organisers.

Individual giving

We never cease to be amazed by the generosity of the public in wanting to improve the services, treatment, and support that we can provide for our patients. This year we have been fortunate enough to receive multiple donations from generous individuals; including £200 from a patient who attended Liskeard Hospital and wanted to give something back to Oak Ward, £85 for Lanyon (now named Rosewarne) at Camborne Redruth Community Hospital, £100 for Harold White Ward, £1,000 to Stratton Community Hospital, and £5,000 to the St Austell Community Hospital General Fund, from a gentleman in gratitude for his mother’s end of life care experience.

Thank you so much to everyone who got in touch with us this year wishing to generously donate to our various charitable funds.

NHS Charities Together

Our membership with NHS Charities Together has presented many exciting funding opportunities and we are very grateful for their extensive support in recent years. We have continued to deliver projects addressing health inequalities; promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion; supporting the wellbeing and resilience of our people through the development of staff equality networks; enhancing outdoor spaces and breakout areas; and improving access to nature for all.

On top of this, in April 2024 we were thrilled to learn that our application to the Greener Communities Fund, managed by NHS Charities Together in partnership with Starbucks and Hubbub was successful, granting us £164,000 towards developing a dedicated Healing by Nature site on the land adjacent to our Trust-owned community mental health team base Trevillis House in Liskeard.

Additionally in support of this inspiring project, we have secured a £5,000 Workplace Travel Grant from Cornwall Council to install a bike shelter making it easier for patients, partners and staff to cycle to work and appointments improving access to Healing by Nature, and £4,920 from Active Cornwall’s Live Longer Better programme towards installing green gym equipment at the site, so we can offer a variety of exercise options for all abilities, equally valuing the mental health and physical health of all beneficiaries of this community space. Weekly camp-fire catchup groups for people with complex emotional difficulties are well attended in all weathers and membership is growing.

Trust fundraising

We are incredibly grateful to the Trustees of the Green Hall Foundation for contributing £3,000 towards improving the patient gardens at Fettle Ward in Bodmin, and The Card Factory Foundation who granted Sowenna a Local Community Fund award of £5,000 this year as part of nominations made by Card Factory PLC colleagues.

Shining the Spotlight on our Fundraising Heroes

We were so inspired when we heard the journey of Rachel Jonas who in May 2024 walked 400 miles in 4 weeks along the Portuguese Camino de Santiago to fund raise for the Sowenna Charitable Fund, raising over £2,200; an extraordinary effort!

A huge thank you to Eleanor Dennis who smashed her fundraising target of £150, raising £1,000 for the Children and Young People’s Eating Disorders Service by running the Principality Cardiff Half Marathon in October 2024.

William Bell took part in the challenging Atlantic Coast Ultra 40 Miler in October 2024, running from Fistral Beach in Newquay, following the stunning coastline all the way to Hayle River Mouth, finishing at St Ives Bay Holiday Park and raising an amazing £800 for the Sowenna Charitable Fund.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2024-25

And, to celebrate St Piran’s Day 2025, Camelford Up and Running group attempted to visit every square on the Cornish Monopoly Board in 24 hours, travelling 315 miles by minibus, and accumulating over 20 miles of running raising £1,870 for Children and Young People’s Eating Disorders Service, after the daughter of 2 members used their services in 2024.

“The help and support we have received from the service has been second to none. We as a family would like to show our appreciation and hope whatever money we raise will help another family going through similar times to us.”

Hospital League of Friends

Our community hospitals are very fortunate to be supported by a thriving and hard-working network of League of Friends. They tirelessly fund raise to help support the delivery of healthcare through the purchase of up-to-date medical devices which this year included bladder scanners and ECG recorders, specialist furniture, sports equipment and entertainment systems which will improve the care experience for our patients. The Guild of Friends of Camborne Redruth Community Hospital in partnership with Redruth Charity Trust have been instrumental in the setting up of a new café at Camborne Redruth Community Hospital.

In 2024-25, our hospitals in Bodmin, Bude, St Austell, Launceston, Falmouth, Helston and Newquay also benefited from the contributions of their loyal Leagues of Friends, affording 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 extend 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. Donating or fundraising in memory of someone is a very special and meaningful way to pay tribute to a loved one, whilst helping others at the same time. We are incredibly touched and grateful to receive these donations.

Future plans

We look forward to further promoting our new brand next year, getting out and about telling people about our charity, and offering our generous donors and incredible fund raisers an enhanced supporter journey. We continue to explore opportunities to work in partnership with voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations to deliver an improved patient experience in surroundings and spaces conducive to wellbeing and recovery. We will be fundraising to enrich health and wellbeing through arts, culture and creativity at Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, and supporting teams to effectively use their charitable funds to enhance the experience of patients throughout their care journey.

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 to 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 one 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 2024-25 31

(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 of the 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:

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

(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.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2024-25

32

Grants are not usually awarded with conditions attached. When they are, however, then those conditions have to be met before the liability is recognised.

The total costs of each category of charitable expenditure include an apportionment of support costs as shown in note 8.

(k) Fixed asset investments

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.

(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 the 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.

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

(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.

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.

Charitable Fund Annual Report and Accounts 2024-25

33

(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

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).

(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.

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).

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.

The bases of allocation are in the case of time and salary a calculated realistic assumption of the time that staff spend on charitable fund activities which is then used to calculate what proportion of their salary should be recharged to the charity. The independent examination fee is settled on production of an invoice.

Lloyds is the charities current account and is used to facilitate day-to-day cash flow and the fulfilment of obligation to make payments for items purchased by the charity. Lloyds is also used as an instant access deposit facility. The CCLA COIF and Nationwide Business Saver accounts are both instant access deposit accounts. The CAF account is held on a 90-day notice and therefore classified as cash and cash equivalents.

No cash or cash equivalents or current asset investments were held in non-cash investments or outside of the UK.

All the amounts held on interest bearing deposit are available to spend on charitable activities. Funds are transferred between the accounts to maintain a positive cash flow position and to meet obligations and to ensure that funds are protected as far as possible under the government backed Financial Service Compensation Scheme.
