The John Wernham College of Classical Osteopathy

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objectives for which the charity was established, as set out in its Trust Deed, are

  1. to provide education and training for students and graduates in osteopathy.

  2. to provide and maintain a clinic or clinics for the treatment of those in need of osteopathy.

  3. to carry out research into and develop the methods and practice of osteopathy and to disseminate the useful results of such research for the public benefit.

  4. to lay the foundation of a charitable hospital to be called "The Littlejohn Memorial Osteopathy Hospital" (in honour of the late John Martin Littlejohn, founder and Dean of the British School of Osteopathy).

The trustees delegate the day to day responsibility for organising the charity's activities to the clinic administrator.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The charity continues to provide the charitable activities as detailed above.

Until suitable premises are located for the memorial osteopathy hospital, the trustees have taken the decision to invest some of the charity's contingency fund into investment properties as the return on these investments are considered better than holding the money in cash deposits at the bank.

Fundraising activities

The fundraising activities of the charity are primarily the provision of donations from patients receiving osteopathic treatment.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

As stated above the main source of income for the charity are the donations it receives for providing osteopathic treatment to patients along with interest it has received on its contingency fund.

Reserves policy

The charity has a reserve fund, which has been set aside as a contingency fund to realise the Trust Deed objective of establishing a charitable hospital.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity operates under a Trust Deed dated 30th September 1991 revised by a supplemental Trust Deed dated 22nd January 1997. This supplemental Trust Deed was approved by the Charity Commission under the new registered number 1061244 with effect from 13th March 1997.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

In the event of any of the current trustees resigning, the remaining trustees would look to a further appointee who has shown interest and commitment over several years towards the college.

Income

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Land and buildings - 1% on cost

Plant and machinery - 10% and 15% on cost

Freehold property within land and buildings are shown on the balance sheet at fair value less accumulated depreciation.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Taxation
