## PRIMARY CARE DIABETES SOCIETY 

## REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020 

PCDS is chaired by Dr C Hambling who was appointed in November 2018. 

Trustees serve for a 3 year term after which their position is up for re-election. All Trustees are elected from the current membership. 

PCDS has charity status in both England (Charities Commission) & Scotland (OSCR). Our committee represents what we call the five nations; England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland. Although the health needs of people with diabetes from the five nations are essentially similar we find that there are some differences, particularly around service design, which are addressed by our national subcommittees. 

## **Activities and Achievements in the Year August 2019-20** 

The PCDS trustees believe that one of the ways to make a real difference to the health and wellbeing of people with diabetes, their families and carers, is by advancing the knowledge of the healthcare professions delivering diabetes care. Membership continues to grow with over 17,243 healthcare professionals as at January 2020. 

Due to the Covid 19 Pandemic and restrictions PCDS committee has worked differently. Committee meetings have been held virtually and conferences planned for 2020 were cancelled. Where possible, these were re scheduled as virtual conferences with updated content more suited to the current situation. SMART updates were rescheduled as virtual sessions with availability of associated materials such as FAQ documents. 

Guidance was produced in April 2020 for Remote diabetes service delivery and has been shared widely. A webinar on Remote consultations was delivered in July 2020 and has been available on demand, with over 8000 views. 

PCDS chair and committee members have participated in National Recovery Plan (NHS England) and promoted joint working with ABCD regarding resetting diabetes services post covid. Work is ongoing to network with ABCD and DUK regarding development of new ways of working and future development of integrated systems of care for diabetes. PCDS is represented on CaReMe (Cardiac, Renal Metabolic Group) regarding integrated care.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020 

The PCDS committee continue to reflect and consider the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic on diabetes services and share guidance on resetting services and risk stratification. 

## **Financial review** 

The Society’s total income in the year was £178,153 (2019: £412,744) as shown in the Statement of Financial Activities on page 11. The Society’s net income for the year was £ 2,853 (2019: net income of £14,488).  This has been credited to reserves. 

## **Going concern** 

Having assessed the Charity’s financial position and plans for the foreseeable future and taking into account the impact of Covid-19, the Trustees are satisfied there are no material uncertainties and that it remains appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on the going concern basis. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity held total funds as at 31 August 2020 of £174,850 of which all is unrestricted. 

The reserves policy of the Society is to maintain a level of free reserves to cover any future commitments and liabilities. The Trustees aim for the level of free reserves to be at a minimum one year’s operational costs, which equates to approximately £35,000. Actual free reserves were £ 174,850 at the year end. 

The Trustees have taken consideration of the impact of Covid-19 post year end and note that this does impact on the existing reserves policy which continue to be appropriate for the Charity’s activities. 

## **Risk management** 

The Trustees have reviewed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and have taken applicable action to manage those risks. This has included a review of the impact of Covid-19 on the Charity’s activities for which appropriate measures have been put in place as mitigation. 

## **Statement of responsibilities** 

The Trustees (who are also directors of Primary Care Diabetes Society for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2016, the Charities and Trustee Investments (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as Amended) and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

Having assessed the Charity’s financial position and plans for the foreseeable future and taking into account the impact of Covid-19, the Trustees are satisfied there are no material uncertainties and that it remains appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on the going concern basis. 

## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, which are described below, Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying 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 the current and future periods. 

In the view of the Trustees, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affecting assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year.
