OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims
a. Principal activity
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit.
The charity's purpose is to promote ocular health in the primary care sector and to educate the public about ocular health and good vision, and the ways of achieving this.
Specifically, it aims to encourage more people to have regular eye tests and inspire them to make healthier lifestyle choices that benefit their eye health.
It does this by working in partnership with others, as together it can achieve more.
Its actions will improve the UK's eye health, contribute towards a reduction in avoidable blindness and enhance people's everyday lives.
b. Activities for achieving objectives
Eye Health UK is the only charity in the UK offering public information on all aspects of eye care.
It provides free, high quality eye health advice and information to both the public and healthcare professionals.
In-line with its objectives for the year it managed and supported a series of high-profile public health initiatives, including National Eye Health Week which ran 21 - 27 September 2020.
The charity also demonstrated its resilience, implementing an effective and rapid response to the coronavirus pandemic. Careful and flexible management of the charity's operations and output helped it successfully navigate the challenges of COVID-19.
COVID Eye Care
The charity led the way in providing public information on looking after your eyes during the pandemic. We launched a covid eye care hub on our website, published a series of electronic guides and ran social and traditional media campaigns covering everything from advice on accessing essential eye care services to minimising the effects of prolonged screen use to highlighting the importance of kids spending time outdoors during lockdown and tips for keeping your vision clear and eyes healthy when wearing a face mask.
Multi-Channel Eye Care
The charity continued its multi-channel approach to public health promotion ensuring a diverse range of eye care advice and information was available whenever and wherever people needed it.

THE EYECARE TRUST
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD 1 OCTOBER 2019 TO 31 DECEMBER 2020
The charity considers digital health info to be a key tool for future eye health promotion - according to the Office of National Statistics (ONS) 60% of UK Adults looked for health-related information on the internet during 2020. [(i)]
Around 250,000 people benefited from accessing our online advice and information in 2020.
Visits to our library of eye condition guides doubled year-on-year whilst popular searches include ‘red eyes', 'hay fever', 'eye tests' 'floaters', and 'screen use'.
Eye Health UK's public information line also continued to provide a unique and direct response to individuals with concerns about their, or a loved-ones, eye health.
Our Instagram, Facebook and Twitter feeds also helped keep the profession and the public up-to-date with the latest eye care news and provided valuable channels for sharing eye care advice.
(i) Office for National Statistics - Internet Access Households and Individuals Aug 2020
Public Health Promotions in the Media
During the last year the charity's media relations activity tackled issues including, the link between smoking and sight loss; vision and falls; the importance of routine sight tests; screen fatigue and COVID-19 eye care.
These initiatives generated press coverage across the national and local media and helped promote the importance or looking after your vision as well as educating people about essential eye care during the pandemic.
Practitioner Resources
The charity has created a resource library with listings of its public eye health promotion resources.
The listing includes materials produced for National Eye Health Week as well as the charity's portfolio of leaflets and fact sheets.
New resources for 2020 included a 10 best eye health habits series with posters, leaflets and social assets; COVID-19 eye care materials and resources encouraging people to contact their local optical practice if they notice and change in their vision or have concerns about their eye health.
According to ONS data more than 4.2 Million people in England and Wales have a main language other than English. In collaboration with COVID-19 Infographics we also produced a series of posters / infographics with eye care advice for minority audiences.
Titles in the series include:
-
Eye health during COVID-19
-
Eye test myth busters
-
Eye health awareness parts 1 & 2
The resources are translated into 30+ languages including Hindi, Arabic & Polish and are available to download from our vision matters website.

Eye Health within a wider Public Health Context
To highlight the link between eye health and wider public health issues the charity supported a number of other relevant and high-profile public health campaigns during 2020. These included Diabetes Awareness Week and National No Smoking Day.
National Eye Health Week (21- 27 September 2020)
National Eye Health Week 2020 played a vital role in helping raise the profile of optics and encouraging millions of us to take better care of our eyes as we shone a light on vision and eye health for seven days during September.
More than 4,000 organisations - large and small - came together to use our English and foreign language (inc. Hindi, Arabic and Polish) resources to share important eye health information.
A special digital-only edition of Vista magazine , featuring an interview with Match of the Day host Gary Lineker, plus handy lifestyle tips & eye care advice, was read by more than 1/4 million people.
Whilst our podcast hosted by DJ Dan Gasser with guests Minister for Prevention, Public Health and Primary Care, Jo Churchill; Eye Health UK's David Cartwright and Dr Louise Gow from RNIB provided a great opportunity for people to hear detailed, inspiring and accessible guidance on how to keep your eyes and vision healthy.
During the Week there were more than 300 million 'opportunities to see' positive eye health messages in the media , with coverage across national and local print and broadcast media. A special eye health supplement was also published with The Guardian newspaper.
The National Eye Health Week social conversation reached more than 27 million. Top KOL tweeters incl. the Department of Health and Social Care, NHS UK, We Are Primary Care, Welsh Government Health and Care, and, NI's Public Health Agency.
More than one hundred thousand visitors to our websites experienced life through the eyes of someone suffering vision impairment, used the online eye health calculator to assess their risk of future avoidable sight loss and accessed important advice and information on caring for their eyes.
Despite a media landscape and public health agenda filled with COVID this year's low-key campaign achieved excellent cut-through with more than one in ten UK Adults recalling NEHW messaging.
These messages were effective in prompting behaviour change with three quarters (74%) of those who saw our advice about eye health saying it had prompted them to act when it comes to looking after their vision and eye health [(ii)]

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The financial position of the charity at the year-end is set out on page 12.
a. Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to three months expenditure (approximately £18,000 at current levels).
The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
Reserves at the end of this reporting period amount to £82,729 (2019: £49,592). Of these £14,618 (2019: £15,953) were restricted funds.
Free reserves at the year-end amounted to £68,111 (2019: £33,639). This is surplus to the required minimum set out above.
b. Financial position
The present level of funding is adequate to support the continuation of the charity's activities in the short term. In these challenging times the trustees consider the financial position to be satisfactory.
c. Risk review
The trustees recognise their responsibility to manage the risks facing the charity and have implemented a risk management system which includes the maintenance of a new risk register.
Risk levels will be monitored regularly as part of a wider risk strategy.
The trustees currently consider the maintenance of a sustainable unrestricted / non-commercial income stream to the biggest risk facing the charity.
d. Fundraising
Eye Health UK is registered with the Fundraising Regulator, an independent body who set and maintain the standards for charitable fundraising. Public fundraising forms a very small part of the charity's income and is mostly made up funds raised by NEHW supporters at charity bake sales.
The number of complaints received by the charity about its fundraising activity is nil.
e. Principle funding sources
Charity income streams include levy payments from eye care practitioners, charitable donations and sponsorship. This income is used to fund the administration of the charity and its public health promotions.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Charity constitution
The charity was established by its Memorandum (amended by Special Resolution on 5 March 2011) and Articles of Association on 30 November 2000 and is a company limited by guarantee.
The charity's objects, as set out in the Memorandum of Association, are to promote improved ocular health to the public generally; to educate the public about ocular health and good vision and the means of achieving this; and to promote the advancement and improvement of the ophthalmic profession and its suppliers for the public benefit in a generic manner without favouring or promoting any individual supplier of services or appliances.
The trustees are responsible for the governance of the charity; however, the day-to-day running of the charity is delegated to the charity administrator.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
As set out in the Articles of Association, the board of trustees has the right, from time to time, to appoint a person as a trustee. The charity has a requirement for a minimum number of six trustees at any one time, up to a maximum of nine.
A potential trustee will be offered for consideration at any time that the board deems appropriate. The appointment of the potential trustee is formally discussed at the next scheduled board meeting.
Trustees are considered on the basis of relevant skills, experience, and willingness to take an active part in the running of the charity. Following a majority vote of the existing board of trustees, a potential trustee will be appointed to the board. There is no minimum period of service, and a trustee can retire at any time.
The official appointment requires a quorum to agree the appointment, and, following completion of appropriate Companies House documentation, the new trustee is formally welcomed to the board at the following board meeting.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD 1 OCTOBER 2019 TO 31 DECEMBER 2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity and rounded to the nearest £.
Going concern
The COVID-19 viral pandemic is one of the most significant economic events for the UK with unprecedented levels of uncertainty of outcomes. It is therefore difficult to evaluate all of the potential implications on the charity's operations, funding, suppliers and wider economy. The trustees' view on the impact of COVID-19 is that, given the measures that could be undertaken to mitigate the current adverse conditions and the current resources available, they can continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
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.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
