## ANNUAL REPORT 2020/21 

# **THE BIRMINGHAM COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE NHS FOUNDATION TRUST GENERAL CHARITY** 

## **REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 1069427** 

## Foreword 

The Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust General Charity (“the Charity”) is registered with the Charity Commission (number 1069427) and its governing document is a declaration of trust dated the 30[th] January 1998, most recently amended by deed dated the 5[th] May 2016.  This report is provided for Charity Commission purposes. 

The Corporate Trustee presents the Charity’s annual report together with the independently examined financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2021.  The Charity’s annual report and accounts for the year ended 31st March 2021 have been prepared in accordance with part 8 of the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts & Reports) Regulations 2008 and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 2019. 

## Summary of Aims & Objectives 

The Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust General Charity is registered to raise funds and receive donations to benefit the patients, their carers and the staff who treat them at Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. 

The Charity exists to make a difference by providing “extras” not funded as part of core NHS services.  These are the things that can bring a smile to patients, enhance their experience and improve their care with us. 

The Charity’s income derives from fundraising, donations, charitable grants, legacies and sponsorship.  All money raised goes directly to the Charity and is spent according to donors’ wishes. 

The Board of Charitable Trustees oversee charitable expenditure ensuring we fulfil our aim to make a real difference for our staff and our patients and improve their experience whilst working within or accessing our services.

As Executive and Non-Executive Board members change, the Trustees of the Charity also change to reflect the current Board of the trust.  The Trustees have had regard to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006. 

The Board of Charitable Trustees are responsible for ensuring that proper accounting records are maintained along with the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view.  They are also responsible for the policies and procedures adopted and for complying with the guidance laid down by the Charity Commission on the role of a Trustee. 

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Board established a Charitable Funds Committee to manage the charitable funds and this meets on a bimonthly basis and reports to the Board of Charitable Trustees and the Trust Board.  The purpose of the Committee and delegated authority is determined by the Terms of Reference, the most recently revised version was approved by the Board of Charitable Trustees on the 5[th] May 2021. 

The Charitable Funds Committee commissioned the delivery of two dedicated training sessions for the Board of Charitable Trustees delivered by Peter Edwards, Partner at Capsticks Solicitors LLP to support their development as Trustees of BCHC Charity. 

In February 2021, a bespoke interactive session on our Charity Governance was delivered with the Chairs and Vice Chairs of the Board of Charitable Trustees and Charitable Funds Committee with the Lead Executive and supporting Trust officers in attendance.  In April 2021, the Board of Charitable Trustees received a dedicated training session on their duties and responsibilities as Charity Trustees; including where enhanced duties for specific Board members apply. 

The members of the Charitable Funds Committee as at the 31[st] March 2021 were (all Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust): 

- Mrs J Belza, Non-Executive Director (Chair) 

- Dr B Henley, Trust Chair 

- Dr D Simkiss, Medical Director 

- Mrs M Perry, Chief of Nursing & Therapies

## Also in attendance are:

## Delegation of Authority 

Expenditure is committed by the Charity in line with the following scheme of delegation: 

Charity Manager: up to £5,000 Chair of the Charitable Funds Committee: up to £25,000 Charitable Funds Committee: up to £50,000 Board of Charitable Trustees: above £50,000. 

## Public Benefit Statement 

Our Public Benefit Statement was approved by the Charitable Funds Committee on the 5th December 2018.  When making decisions, exercising any powers or duties due regard is made to the approved public benefit statement.  Grants are made in accordance with charity law, our constitution and the wishes and directions of donors.  In making grants, we endeavour to reflect the wishes of patients and staff by directing funds towards areas they tell us are most in need.  When considering where to focus our attention our Corporate Trustees Board and, particularly, the members of the Charitable Funds Committee, have regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and what this means for the Charity. 

## Risk Management 

As part of the management of the Charity, the Board of Charitable Trustees consider the major risks to which the Charity is exposed.  The risks are reviewed regularly by the Charitable Funds Committee and systems and procedures put in place to mitigate and manage risk.  The following risks were identified and actions taken to mitigate or manage the risks. 

## **Risk: Financial risk** 

For this financial year the Charity has delivered a financial surplus due to the donations that have been received from NHS Charities Together due to COVID-19.  However, whilst these donations are expected to continue into 2021-22 there is an expectation that they are of a non-recurring nature and will eventually be phased out after a number of years leaving the Charity to manage the normal underlying position where the full costs of the Charity may outweigh the income received from donations and fundraising.  This underlying position may place longer term cash pressures on the Charity and as such the risk is actively managed. 

**Actions** : The financial situation is being actively managed as part of the Charity strategy and reported to the Charitable Funds Committee and the Board of Charitable Trustees. 

**Page 4** 



## **Risk: Governance risk** 

The Charity has recognised a risk regarding its governance arrangements and the role and responsibilities of corporate Trustees which may result in the Charity failing to meet legal and regulatory requirements. 

**Actions** : The Trust created a Board of Charitable Trustees in November 2019 which reports to the Trust Board and holds the Charitable Funds Committee to account.  The Board of Charitable Trustees comprises all Trust Executive and Non-Executive directors and it sits twice each year after a full Trust Board meeting.  The Board of Trustees holds the Charitable Funds Committee to account on matters of finance, investments and the overall Charitable funds strategy.  The Charitable Funds Committee oversees all matters relating to the operation of the Trust’s Charity and sits on a bi-monthly basis. 

## **Risk: COVID-19** 

COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the normal business as usual for the Charity with face-to-face and fundraising events being cancelled.  However, this risk is being mitigated by increased donations through a national appeal co-ordinated by NHS Charities Together from which the Charity is due to benefit for a number of future years. This funding specifically relates to staff health and wellbeing and other services directly impacted by the pandemic.  They are restricted funds and therefore not available for projects outside of this remit. 

**Actions** : The Charity has adapted its fund raising strategy to maximise income through Trust and Foundations rather than holding face-to-face events as would have been the norm pre-COVID-19. 

## Achievements and Performance 

A number of significant charitable activities have been undertaken during 2020/21.  The below table details charitable income for the financial year of 2020/21: 

|**Fundraising**|**TOTAL**|
|---|---|
|CommunityFundraising|£9,125|
|Events(run byBCHC Charity)|£2,831|
|Trusts & Foundations incl. NHS Charities Together Grants|£435,896|

|In Memory|£17,095|
|General or Unknown Reason|£11,204|
|**TOTAL INCOME 2020/21**|**£489,283**|



A large portion of the funds spent during 2020/21 were in response to the COVID-19 crisis including but not limited to; self-care items, home comforts, entertainment items and activity items for inpatients and patients accessing community services.  Items provided 

**Page 5** 



reduced isolation such as iPads and accessories to contact loved ones as well as items to boost morale and motivation (jigsaws, DVD players, puzzle books).  A number of wellbeing items and projects have also been provided for staff as part of the grant received from NHS Charities Together.  Projects include enhanced emotional support (Schwartz Rounds) and Wellbeing Hub items to support mindfulness and positive mental health. 

Following the End of Life Appeal a number of bereavement projects were funded to enhance care across the Trust including Bereavement Memory Boxes and their contents, refurbishment, redecoration and amenities for the Dandelion Room bereavement suite at Moseley Hall Hospital and a cuddle bed at Willow House, West Heath Hospital which provides comfort for patients and their carers in their last few days of life. 



Funds were provided for a Lightwriter and other communication aids and sensory equipment for Ward 9, the Inpatient Neurological Rehabilitation Unit at Moseley Hall Hospital, whilst patients at our Learning Disability site, Kingswood Drive, received sensory items including a weighted blanket. 

## Our Plans 

We have set strategic objectives for the Charity’s development through the next few years and the associated implementation plan is reviewed and reported on quarterly for assurance.  Our goals focus on what we want to achieve for our patients and what we will need to do as a charity to further help enhance patient care.  We will continue to invest to grow the Charity, building general, grant and corporate fundraising.  We will also be developing a series of specific priorities for targeted fundraising, as well as increasing our staff and public engagement. 

The Charity Team will continue to focus on embedding the brand identity into every aspect of the Charity including online communications such as social media and other advertising forums. 

Face-to-face and event fundraising will resume from March 2022 with the current focus remaining on partnership fundraising and Trust and Foundation income.  The focus over the coming year will still be to continue responding to the needs of staff and patients post COVID-19 and apply for funding accordingly. 

## Financial Review 

The Charity had a full-time Campaign Manager on a 12 months’ secondment until 31[st] March 2021 and this post is to be made permanent with effect from 1[st] April 2021.  In total the Charity now comprises 3 full-time staff, including the Charity Manager and a Fundraising Assistant post. 

Fund balances stood at £830,430 as at the 31[st] March 2021, an increase of 55% on the previous year.  This increase is made up of a number of factors but largely related to COVID-19 income received from NHS Charities Together (directly or via lead charities) and a considerable increase in the value of investments during the course of the year as the portfolio has recovered from the initial losses sustained during the first wave of COVID-19 in March 2020.

Charitable activities costs include staffing costs and patient expenditure.  Costs in 2020/21 have largely increased due to an increase in patient expenditure throughout the year. Patient expenditure has largely increased in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This support has largely been focused in the following areas: 


Self-care items for patients in inpatient services and community settings, such as; 

**983 electronic entertainment items for inpatient areas** including items such as televisions, DVD players & DVDs, CD players and CDs, audio books, iPads & accessories, and more 


**7,334 activity items for inpatient wards and community services** including board games, puzzle & colouring books, arts & crafts supplies, gardening tools & seeds, books, newspapers, and more 


The End of Life appeal identified and funded a number of bereavement projects; 

**35,960 items to support colleague health & wellbeing** including relaxation items such as sleep 

## **refurbished bereavement suite and over 700 bereavement support items** 

such as Bereavement Memory Boxes, children’s books about grief, and more 


masks & scented candles, self care items like hand cream and lip balm, mindful activity books, a years’ license to Schwartz Rounds support, and much more

Investments are managed through the use of a professional investment manager in line with the Charity’s investment strategy, which is approved by the Charitable Funds Committee and ratified by the Board of Charitable Trustees. 

There has been a significant increase in cash balances during the year largely related to the COVID-19 income received from NHS Charities Together. 

Creditors represent Charity expenditure charged to the Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS FT revenue accounts towards the end of the financial year and these will be discharged in 2021-22.

## Reserves Policy 

The Trustees believe that all income donations should be spent in line with donors’ wishes and within reasonable timescales. I n order to ascertain the level of reserves to be held, the Trustees will continue to review the level of funds held and the reliability of each source of income on a regular basis. 

Expenditure plans are prepared when appropriate to ensure that reserves are held to meet the needs of the Charity now and for the forthcoming years.  The Charity Manager regularly meets with the Fund Advisors across the clinical divisions to identify areas in which funds can be spent to make a difference for patients and carers. 

The Trustees have agreed a maximum cash reserve of £100,000 which aims to achieve a forward looking approach whereby reserves are held based on a year’s future spend.  It is proposed that the reserves will comprise cash in the Charity’s current account and business call accounts and a 5% instant access cash resources within the investments. The Charity also held unrestricted fund balances of £72,248 at the end of the financial year and has no further commitments that are not provided as a liability within the accounts. 

## Investments 

The Charity has a formal Investment Policy which is reviewed on an annual basis. The investment objectives are to yield a reasonable amount of income through ethical investments in accordance with Charity Commission guidance.  The Charity has noted the guidance from the Charity Commission and has stipulated that investing in companies manufacturing and distributing armaments, alcoholic and tobacco products and any others which may bring criticism to the Charity or its Trustees in its education and health roles will not be permitted. 

The Charity engages Brewin Dolphin as investment managers. 

The Charitable Funds Committee annually reviews the performance of the external investment managers and ensures that the investment of funds is in line with its policy. 

## Going Concern 

In preparing these accounts the Board of Trustees have considered the future activities of the Charity and consider it to be a going concern.  The Trustees have considered the impact of Covid-19 on the Charity and are reassured that this will not have a negative impact on the Charity being able to discharge its duties in future years. 

The Charity holds unrestricted funds of £72,248 and this provides some coverage for the committed expenditure related to staffing costs, fundraising costs and other overheads of the Charity.  The Charity also holds a significant cash balance at the end of the year which is well in excess of the outstanding creditors.  Therefore the Charitable Funds Committee considers it appropriate to prepare the Charity’s financial statements on a going concern basis.

## Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities 

The Board of Charitable Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". 

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 state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period.  In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

The Board of Charitable Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Board of Charitable Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Charity and financial information included on the Charity's website.  Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

## Provision of Information to Independent Examiner 

Each of the persons who are Trustees at the time when this Trustees' report is approved has confirmed that: 

- so far as the Trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Charity’s independent examiner is unaware; and 

- that Trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Trustee in order to be aware of any information needed by the Charity’s independent examiner in connection with preparing its report and to establish that the Charity’s independent examiner is aware of that information.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BIRMINGHAM COMMUNITY HEALTHCHARE NHS FOUNDATION TRUST GENERAL CHARITY** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust General Charity (“the Charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet and the related notes 1 to 9. 

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). You are satisfied that your charity is not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination. 

I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 


Sarah Anderson, FCCA for and on behalf of Deloitte LLP Leeds, United Kingdom 11 December 2021
