Financial Review
The attached financial statements show the current state of the charity's finances, which the Trustees
consider to be satisfactory given the challenging funding environment.
Total income for the year was £71,599 (2024: £178.251), with total expenditure of £108,634 (2024..
£177:961), resulting in a deficit of £37,035 (2024: .surplus of £290). The main source.s of incoine
were small grants, income from healih interpreting services, and the annual fundraising event.
To sustain services, the Management Committee made a strategic decision to utilise a portion of the
charity's reserves during the year.
Investment Powers and Policy
The Trustees, having regard to the charity's liquidity requirements, have retained available funds
in an interest-bearing deposit account.
Reserves Policy and Concerns
At 31 March 2025, unrestricted reserves stood at £381.722, of which £226,974 were free reserves
after allowing for funds tied up in taiigible fixed assets.
The Trustees aim to maintain free reserves equivalent to approximately 18 months of running costs
(currently £162,950), in line with CHIC'S financial strategy. This level of reserves provides
sufficient flexibility to respond to funding opportunities while ensuring governance and support
costs are met.
Having reviewed reserves, the financial strategy plan, and the annual budget, the Trustees consider
the charity to be a going concern. Any reliance on grant funding is managed through a flexible
approach to staffing and service delivery.
Risk Management
The Trustees have reviewed the major risks facing the charity and have established appropriate
systems and controls to mitigate these risks.
Plans for Future Periods
The CHIC Management Committee has agreed a Financial Strategy Plan for the coming years,
which includes..
Setting aside £80,000 as an emergency reserve
Minimising costs and reducing running expenses
Increasing income from interpreting services
Training and recruiting community health interpreters to meet rising demand, including
needs linked to new Hong Kong funding
Continuing annual fundraising activities
Using Chinese festivals and community events as fundraising opportunities

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHINESE
HEALTH INFORMATION CENTRE
si
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2025, which
are set out on pages 9 to 19.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (Th'ho are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are
responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not
required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 201 l Act) and that an
independent examination is needed. The charity is required by company law to prepare accrned
accounts and I am qualified to undertake the examinalion by being a qualified meinber of The
Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is
eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act .
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity
Commission under section 145(b) of the 201 l Act; and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the
Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the
charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations
from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to
whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view. and the report is limited to those matters set
out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
( l) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006;
and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the
accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006, and
with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recominended Practice:

have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
