REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2022
4. Review of performance, impact and future plans
Performance
The first virtual conference held during Covid in April 2021 was such a success with over 1060 delegates attending from 123 hospices. Following this success, the Trustees decided that in keeping with our mission to train hospice fundraisers we would maintain the virtual format for our 2022 conference held in between 23rd to 25th March. In 2022 we brought in a new variable cost structure with the aim of keeping costs low to attract and train as many delegates as possible. Our 2022 Conference was an outstanding success with 1,330 delegates from 122 hospices. We put on 45 workshops, 6 plenary sessions and 3 wellbeing sessions. The conference was supported by 4 Platinum Partners .
The pandemic continued to affect the way in which we were able to support our members. All our training and networking events through the year were held online. These have been well attended and provided the opportunity for our members to learn from each other and connect with each other in a safe space.
In recent years it has become clear that Speakers at conferences are much more aware regarding Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and will actively ask questions regarding this. The board also felt the way in which we recruited speakers in the past made it difficult to plan for a fair representation of topics, as well as diversity. In 2021 we implemented new procedures to encourage diversity and we continued that into 2022
Impact
Our April 2022 virtual conference was attended by more delegates representing more hospices than ever before. We were supported by 13 charity sector exhibitors, including our Platinum Partners - Donorflex, Majestic Publishing, Ruddock's and Vintage Cash Cow.
During 2022, we organised 20 online training sessions for members covering a broad range of income generation topics, including: Christmas tree recycling, events fundraising, data governance, retail marketing, legacy marketing investment, individual giving, and practical spreadsheet training for KPI tracking and reporting. These events attracted 866 registrations from our members.
This year our member hospices stood at 123.
Future plans
Virtual training continues to be the main focus for the delivery of our development programme. The members will be consulted on the topics they wish to see on the programme for 2023.
The board decided this year to plan another virtual conference in Spring 2023 after balancing the risk of an expensive hotel contract and hospices telling us that more of their teams can attend our conference with it being virtual and more cost-effective to sign up to.
The board have also discussed the re-introduction of the regional development days. A number of dates will be organised on 2023 to test if there is an appetite for this type of in-person education and networking.
5. Review of financial position
In total the company had income of £63,143 (against £31,694 in 2021). Expenditure totalled £43,349 (against £37,416 in 2021) resulting in a surplus of £19,794.
6. Reserves policy
Page 3
HOSPICE INCOME GENERATION NETWORK LIMITED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2022
The company's reserves are held at a level which, in the opinion of the Trustees is sufficient to ensure the company's future development, and to take into account possible future fluctuations of income and expenditure. The company has a policy of maintaining its free reserves at approximately six months of forward expenditure.
At 31 December 2022, unrestricted reserves amounted to £87,355 (against £67,561 in 2021) of which £87,355 (against £67,561 in 2021) were free reserves.
The level of free reserves is reviewed by the Board on an ongoing basis.
7. Fundraising practices statement
The Hospice Income Generation Network did not undertake any public fundraising activity nor employ any staff with a specific remit for public fundraising during 2022.
Our members agree to abide by our Code of Conduct and the Code of Fundraising Practice.
The company is registered with the Fundraising Regulator and the Information Commissioners Office. We have policies in place to govern our practices and activities. Reports are filed in accordance with regulations set out by the Companies Act 2006 and the Charity Commission.
8. Risks policy
The Trustees have examined the risks to which the association is exposed, in particular those related to the on-going operations and finances, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our major risks.
The Trustees have identified that the creation of an Ethical Policy will be beneficial for the future. A working committee was formed and met several times in 2022, scoping out specific areas where policies will need to be created. Further development of this area is planned to take place in 2023.
9. Auditors
The charity is not required to prepare audited accounts.
10. Structure, Governance and Management
The charity was incorporated on 18th October 1995 and amended by Resolution dated 14th February 1997. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It is a registered charity with the Charity Commission and a company limited by guarantee with the Trustees as company directors.
The Memorandum and Articles of Association pre-dates company law and so in 2021 the Trustees instructed a solicitor to enable the revision of these Articles. We engaged with Wrigley's in Leeds who impressed Trustees with their experience and took time to fully understand the organisation and our needs. This work was completed in 2022, approved by Trustees and revised Articles were lodged with the Charity Commission. These revised articles have provided greater clarity in outlining the Trustees rights and responsibilities as members of the company.
Appointment of Trustees
As part of the revised Articles of Association membership of the board now encompasses a minimum of one member from each region plus additional Trustees with specific skillsets that meets the current needs of the organisation.
The Trustees reviewed the appointment process and length of service of Trustees and changes were approved in the New Articles of Association which came in to force following the 2022 AGM. Trustees now serve 3-year terms with a maximum of 3 terms. Given the length of service of the existing Trustees the risk that everyone would leave at once was perceived as low.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2022
Trustee induction and training
The Chair is responsible for issuing all new Trustees with a full set of documents covering governance, finance, the Board structure and decision making processes. Ongoing training is the responsibility of all Trustees and includes keeping up to day with the latest guideline from the Charity Commission.
Organisation
The Board meets quarterly to examine performance, finance, strategy and risk. Trustees should attend all Board meetings, not missing more than two in any four without good reason, as determined by the Chair. Trustees will undertake responsibility for specific duties, as mutually decided by the Board and support the Chair and other Trustees in any areas of special interest.
Staff and volunteers
The Hospice Income Generation Network does not have any employees and is run purely by volunteers.
Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the company's affairs at the end of the year and of its income and expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements the Trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the company, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

4. Review of performance, impact and future plans
Performance
The first virtual conference held during Covid in April 2021 was such a success with over 1060 delegates attending from 123 hospices. Following this success, the Trustees decided that in keeping with our mission to train hospice fundraisers we would maintain the virtual format for our 2022 conference held in between 23rd to 25th March. In 2022 we brought in a new variable cost structure with the aim of keeping costs low to attract and train as many delegates as possible. Our 2022 Conference was an outstanding success with 1,330 delegates from 122 hospices. We put on 45 workshops, 6 plenary sessions and 3 wellbeing sessions. The conference was supported by 4 Platinum Partners .
The pandemic continued to affect the way in which we were able to support our members. All our training and networking events through the year were held online. These have been well attended and provided the opportunity for our members to learn from each other and connect with each other in a safe space.
In recent years it has become clear that Speakers at conferences are much more aware regarding Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and will actively ask questions regarding this. The board also felt the way in which we recruited speakers in the past made it difficult to plan for a fair representation of topics, as well as diversity. In 2021 we implemented new procedures to encourage diversity and we continued that into 2022
Impact
Our April 2022 virtual conference was attended by more delegates representing more hospices than ever before. We were supported by 13 charity sector exhibitors, including our Platinum Partners - Donorflex, Majestic Publishing, Ruddock's and Vintage Cash Cow.
During 2022, we organised 20 online training sessions for members covering a broad range of income generation topics, including: Christmas tree recycling, events fundraising, data governance, retail marketing, legacy marketing investment, individual giving, and practical spreadsheet training for KPI tracking and reporting. These events attracted 866 registrations from our members.
This year our member hospices stood at 123.
Future plans
Virtual training continues to be the main focus for the delivery of our development programme. The members will be consulted on the topics they wish to see on the programme for 2023.
The board decided this year to plan another virtual conference in Spring 2023 after balancing the risk of an expensive hotel contract and hospices telling us that more of their teams can attend our conference with it being virtual and more cost-effective to sign up to.
The board have also discussed the re-introduction of the regional development days. A number of dates will be organised on 2023 to test if there is an appetite for this type of in-person education and networking.
5. Review of financial position
In total the company had income of £63,143 (against £31,694 in 2021). Expenditure totalled £43,349 (against £37,416 in 2021) resulting in a surplus of £19,794.
6. Reserves policy
Page 3
HOSPICE INCOME GENERATION NETWORK LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 03115262)
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2022
The company's reserves are held at a level which, in the opinion of the Trustees is sufficient to ensure the company's future development, and to take into account possible future fluctuations of income and expenditure. The company has a policy of maintaining its free reserves at approximately six months of forward expenditure.
At 31 December 2022, unrestricted reserves amounted to £87,355 (against £67,561 in 2021) of which £87,355 (against £67,561 in 2021) were free reserves.
The level of free reserves is reviewed by the Board on an ongoing basis.
7. Fundraising practices statement
The Hospice Income Generation Network did not undertake any public fundraising activity nor employ any staff with a specific remit for public fundraising during 2022.
Our members agree to abide by our Code of Conduct and the Code of Fundraising Practice.
The company is registered with the Fundraising Regulator and the Information Commissioners Office. We have policies in place to govern our practices and activities. Reports are filed in accordance with regulations set out by the Companies Act 2006 and the Charity Commission.
8. Risks policy
The Trustees have examined the risks to which the association is exposed, in particular those related to the on-going operations and finances, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our major risks.
The Trustees have identified that the creation of an Ethical Policy will be beneficial for the future. A working committee was formed and met several times in 2022, scoping out specific areas where policies will need to be created. Further development of this area is planned to take place in 2023.
9. Auditors
The charity is not required to prepare audited accounts.
10. Structure, Governance and Management
The charity was incorporated on 18th October 1995 and amended by Resolution dated 14th February 1997. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It is a registered charity with the Charity Commission and a company limited by guarantee with the Trustees as company directors.
The Memorandum and Articles of Association pre-dates company law and so in 2021 the Trustees instructed a solicitor to enable the revision of these Articles. We engaged with Wrigley's in Leeds who impressed Trustees with their experience and took time to fully understand the organisation and our needs. This work was completed in 2022, approved by Trustees and revised Articles were lodged with the Charity Commission. These revised articles have provided greater clarity in outlining the Trustees rights and responsibilities as members of the company.
Appointment of Trustees
As part of the revised Articles of Association membership of the board now encompasses a minimum of one member from each region plus additional Trustees with specific skillsets that meets the current needs of the organisation.
The Trustees reviewed the appointment process and length of service of Trustees and changes were approved in the New Articles of Association which came in to force following the 2022 AGM. Trustees now serve 3-year terms with a maximum of 3 terms. Given the length of service of the existing Trustees the risk that everyone would leave at once was perceived as low.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2022
Trustee induction and training
The Chair is responsible for issuing all new Trustees with a full set of documents covering governance, finance, the Board structure and decision making processes. Ongoing training is the responsibility of all Trustees and includes keeping up to day with the latest guideline from the Charity Commission.
Organisation
The Board meets quarterly to examine performance, finance, strategy and risk. Trustees should attend all Board meetings, not missing more than two in any four without good reason, as determined by the Chair. Trustees will undertake responsibility for specific duties, as mutually decided by the Board and support the Chair and other Trustees in any areas of special interest.
Staff and volunteers
The Hospice Income Generation Network does not have any employees and is run purely by volunteers.
Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the company's affairs at the end of the year and of its income and expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements the Trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the company, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.
