Structure, Governance and Management

The main Charity is an NHS Charity as defined within the NHS Charities guidance (1 February 2012) and was created by the Declaration of Trust made on 19[th] March 1997. The Corporate Trustee is the Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (the Trust). The Executive Directors and the NonExecutive Directors of the Trust share the responsibility for ensuring that the NHS body fulfils its duties as Corporate Trustee in managing the charitable fund.

The Board of the Trust has delegated the responsibility of managing the charitable fund to the Charitable Funds Committee. The Director of Finance is responsible for the day-to-day management and control of the administration of the charitable fund and chairs the Charitable Funds Committee. The Director of Finance has particular responsibility to ensure that spending is in accordance with the objectives and priorities agreed by the Charitable Funds Committee and the Board; the criteria for spending the charitable funds are fully met; full accounting records are maintained; and that devolved decision-making or delegated arrangements are in accordance with the policies and procedures set out by the Board on behalf of the Corporate Trustee.

The Charitable Funds Committee reviews the performance of the external investment manager and ensures that the investment of funds is in accordance with the Charity’s policy on ethical investment. The Committee approves the appointment and the terms of business of the investment manager and approves items of expenditure above the delegated limits of the fund holders.

Regular reports are produced on financial activity and fundraising programmes and are presented to the Charitable Funds Committee.

A number of funds are earmarked for certain wards and departments. These are managed on a day-today basis by fund holders within the directorate they relate to. The fund holders are required to adhere to the Standing Financial Instructions, Standing Orders and Delegated Limits set by the Corporate Trustee. The Charitable Funds Committee Members oversee the work of these fund holders and have the power to withdraw a fund holder’s delegated authority and to direct the use to which funds are put (subject to any specific donor restrictions).

The Trust recognises that a well governed Charitable Funds Committee is essential if the Charity is to be effective in achieving its objectives. The Committee must seek to be representative of the people with whom the Charity works and must have available to it all of the knowledge and skills required to run the Charity.

Individual Committee Members must have sufficient knowledge, both of trusteeship in general and of the Charity's activities, to enable them to carry out their role and to represent the Charity at meetings and other events. Any new appointee is required to have these skills.

The Trust seeks to have at least four Members on its Charitable Funds Committee.

Restricted funds policy:

Restricted funds are set up when there is either a donation or a grant is received with specific written restrictions on how the funds to be used.

Public benefit statement

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

Our Charity’s objective is to provide support for any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Services provided by Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust including services provided to the community. The Trustees ensure that this purpose is carried out for the public benefit by working to the strategic objectives.

Our charitable organisation is set up to benefit patients and their families and the staff of Homerton Hospital. Our grants are structured to ensure that the money raised is used to best effect to support the hospital’s work and is in line with donor’s wishes and the charity’s mission and objectives.

The Charity does not provide facilities directly to the public but provides them to the hospital, in so doing, for the patients of the hospital.

Grants made to the hospital do not focus on the income of patients, but provide a benefit to any patient requiring the services of the hospital, which are available to all entitled to NHS treatment based on need.

Strategic Objectives and Activities

The main objective of the charitable fund is to ensure that the funds are used: “For any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Services provided by Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust”.

The Charity is funded by donations and legacies received from patients, their relatives, and the general public and other organisations. In order to meet our overall objective we ensure all spend pertains to one of the following three areas:

Patient Expenditure – Purchase of items of equipment, provision of services, and the provision of facilities not normally provided by, or in addition to, the normal NHS provision;

Staff Expenditure – Purchase of educational material and conference/course fees in addition to those provided from the Trust’s training and development budgets. Enhanced staff facilities and services that improve staff wellbeing; and

Capital Equipment - Purchase of equipment in addition to that provided by NHS funds through the Trust’s Capital Programme.

The activities carried out during 2020/21 to meet the strategic objectives are summarised on pages 7 to 9 of this report.

Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Charitable Funds Annual Report 2020/21

Investment Policy

The Charitable Funds Committee reviewed the Investment Policy for Trust Funds during the year 2019/20. The aim of the policy is to optimise the investment income received whilst maintaining the capital value of the funds and ensure:

• There is a balanced portfolio;

• The investment style is conservative;

• We refrain from direct investment in tobacco related companies;

• There is no direct investment exposure through overseas shares; and

• A sufficient cash balance will be held to meet the fund’s ongoing working capital requirements.

To ensure that appropriate advice and guidance is received:

• The Charitable Funds Committee has the delegated authority to appoint fund managers; and

• • Fund managers are required to submit performance reports and attend meetings where appropriate, to advice on investment performance, trends, opportunities, and highlight areas of concern.

The funds have been managed in accordance with the Investment Policy during 2020/21.

As a part of its regular review of the Charitable Fund’s Investment Strategy, the Committee reviews the Fund’s investments to ensure they remain focused primarily on cash/short term investments. As at 31[st] March 2021 approximately £537k of funds were held in the BlackRock Charinco Common Investment Fund and the Charishare Restricted Common Investment Fund.

Risk Management

The Charitable Funds Committee reviews its risk register on an ongoing basis. When risks are identified, systems and procedures are put in place to manage those risks.

The following risks were identified as possible risks faced by Homerton charity:

• Poor investment performance – financial loss due to poor market conditions on investments.

• Cash flow difficulties as a result of lack of fundraising activities.

• Fraudulent activity – fraudulent payments from charity bank account.

• Security of Art Assets – Theft or damage of various items of art around the hospital.

Review of Achievements and Performance

During 2020/21, the charity continued to support a wide range of charitable and health related activities, benefiting patients and staff in a variety of areas. Generally, funds are used to provide specialist staff, goods and services which would not have been possible using NHS funding.

Due to Covid-19 pandemic fundraising throughout the most part of the year was mainly focused on coordinating the increased amount of goodwill donations. Some of the projects that had been planned during financial year had to be halted due to the pandemic.

The outpouring of support for the NHS in the first lockdown was astonishing. We were inundated with various items of donations; below are just some of the gifts & services received during this time. We distributed these immediately to grateful staff and patients.

• Care packages.

• Toiletries.

• Small electronic equipment.

• Various food items and refreshments.

• Hot meals.

• Drinks.

• Ice cream van.

• Plants.

• Toys.

• Bicycle

• Magazines & stationery items.

• Nespresso coffee machine

• Accommodation

• Discounts from local shops

• Restaurant vouchers.

• Online yoga classes.

• Physiotherapy for staff.

• Personal Protective Equipment

• Free travel for staff.

Some of the activities which continued over the past year are described below.

Art programme

The therapeutic value of art in health and in speeding recovery is well documented. The Trust has always displayed art work in its wards, corridors and courtyards. Based in the heart of Hackney, the hospital provides an excellent blank canvas for artists to display their work to patients, staff and visitors.

Charitable funds are used to fund art therapy sessions in the Elderly Care Unit and the Graham Stroke unit. These were in valuable with patient recovery.

Charity continues in looking for further funding to be able to continue our art therapy sessions in the future.

The trustees are required to act in accordance with the trust deed of the charity, within the framework of trust law. They are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, sufficient to disclose at any time, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the charity at that time, and to enable the trustees to ensure that, where any statements of accounts are prepared by them under section 132(1) of the Charities Act 2011, those statements of accounts comply with the requirements of regulations under that provision.

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of accounting

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

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 16th July 2014 and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.

1.2

Income

• a) All incoming resources are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities as soon as the following three factors can be met:

i) entitlement - arises when there is control over the rights or other access to the resource, enabling the charity to determine its future application;

ii) certainty - when there is reasonable certainty that the incoming resource will be received; and

iii) measurement - when the monetary value of the incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

• b) Gifts in kind include the following:

i) assets given for use by the funds e.g. property for its own occupation are included in the Statement of Financial Activities as incoming resources when receivable; and

ii) gifts made in kind but on trust for conversion into cash and subsequent application of the funds are included in the accounting period in which the gift is sold.

In all cases the amount at which gifts in kind are recognised in these accounts is at the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt to the Charitable Fund or the amount actually realised on disposal of the gift. Where gifts in kind are included in the Statement of Financial Activities at fair value, the value is based on the estimated price the charitable fund would have to pay to acquire the asset in the open market. The basis of the valuation is disclosed in the annual report.

During the financial year 20-21, charity has received a significant number of gifts as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. These were mainly from the local community, businesses, grateful patients and their families. Hot meals, various food items, small electrical equipment, toiletries, services, discounts for staff are some of the gifts in kind received. All these gifts were immediately distributed amongst the hospital staff.

• c) Legacies

Legacies are accounted for as incoming resources once the receipt of the legacy becomes probable. This will be once confirmation has been received from the representatives of the estates that payment of the legacy will be made or property transferred and once all conditions attached to the legacy have been fulfilled.

18

1.13 Going Concern

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, which are described in note 1, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The Trustees do not consider there are any critical judgements or sources of estimation uncertainty requiring disclosure beyond the accounting policies listed above.
