It has been a good yearfor Lewis-manning

wonderful support of so many kind and
generous local Dorset people, whose
dedication and commitment has allowed
our charity to continue our vital work for
those with life-limiting illness and at the
end of life in our area.
people, and dedicate the all-important
time, allowing us to work alongside them
and theirfamilies. Supporting a range of
healthcare professionals. and having the
ability to be flexible and agile in our work
and decision making. is key to this
delivery.
The high-profile events that you have
supported, including the Muddy Dog
Dash, our Community Candles events, a
wonderful Patient Art Exhibition at
Lighthouse Poole, and The Big Give
Campaign in November, have certainly
helped to raise the funds that we need to
keep our important services running.
However. it is a tough time for Hospices
across the UK and locally. Our
government's allocation of capital grants
to hospices has helped, but the true need
is sustainable funding. Lewis-manning
Hospice Care receives only around 100
of its. income from NHS contracts, so your
continued help and support is vital.
Importantly, the number of people that we
have been able to help and support has
grown again this year as we continue to
deliver, review and develop our strategy of
Closer to Home and At Home Care.
Feedback from patients and their loved
ones has been overwhelming and our team
of staff and volunteers have made such a
huge difference to local lives that it is truly
humbling to be part of this team. The
investment that so many of you. our
supporters, have made with your generous
gifts of time, money and advice has once
again made a very real difference.
Providing exceptional hospice care and
support to patients and their loved ones.
through our anticipatory model of Hospice
at Home, is not only providing vital help
where patients need it most. but is also
reducing the pressure on local GPS,
reducing hospital admissions and keeping
patients where they so often want to be, at
home. for longer.
Our charity needs to work extra hard to
ensure that the funds we invest in
services are truly impactful and that we
reduce our costs wherever possible. Our
wider teams at Lewis-manning continue
to work on streamlining processes,
improving efficiencies and ensuring that
our security and IT is strengthened- all
with the aim of minimising costs and
improving performance.
Listening to our patients and their families

and the delivery of our strategy and
services. We listen to what matters to

awareness, income and sustainability for the future. With the support of our local
communities we have opened two new charity shops in Ferndown and Highcliffe, and
are now providing a community based initiative, the House Clearance Service, offering
flexible, complete or part-house clearances and recycling.
In addition, we have secured two new premises in which to deliver even more local
services, focused on clear gaps in our community for end-of-life patients and their loved
ones: namely Family Support, Bereavement Support and Complementary Therapies. We
are delighted to have partnered with a local Care Home group who have generously
given us significant space in Bournemouth; and we are developing an additional site in
Poole which we hope will be opening in 2025.
These fantastic achievements are testament to you, our patients, volunteers, donors, staff
and all our kind supporters.
Thank you.
With your kind help we will continue to build on these solid foundations to meet the
needs of even more patients, their families and carers in Dorset into the future.

Annual Report
2024- 2025
202412025 has been a time for clinical service and strategy evaluation under a newly
appointed Clinical Director, and with a new government. Amidst a challenging financial
climate Lewis-manning Hospice Care remains committed to its mission for equitable
palliative care services within the local communities in Dorset:
to improve patient engagement, education and individual choice in access to palliative
and end-of-life care, achieved through collaboration across Health and Social Care,
and with consideration for the longevity and functionality of our NHS.
As an independent hospice we practice a model of anticipatory palliative care. focusing
on early engagement with patients and families facing the uncertainty of a life-limiting
illness, providing time for meaningful interaction, and multiple opportunities for honest
(and often difficult) conversations. Advanced Care Planning is at the heart of what we
do, to facilitate patient-centred outcomes, and to instil control and a maintained sense of
purpose for patients and families receiving our care.
Our'hub and spoke, model of multi-disciplinary hospice care services is well established,
and well attended within the communities of Wimborne, Poole, Bournemouth, Swanage
and Wareham. The NHS Dorset Quality Team visited our main site in Poole in November
2024, to inspect the nurse-led day services and specialist clinics. We were elated as an
organisation to receive extremely positive feedback, detailing excellent standards of care,
as well as constructive pointers for future development and collaboration.
Lewis-manning Hospice Care exists to engage and listen to the communities of East
Dorset and Purbeck, and to work alongside statutory health services in providing person-
centred palliative care. We are partnered with an NHS pilot to improve access to
palliative care for the rural communities of Purbeck, to deliver positive patient outcomes.
An overwhelming response from the local community has cemented our commitment to
embed Lewis-manning seNices in Purbeck, butthere is no on-going statutory funding
contribution at present.

Reserves policy
The Finance and Operations Committee reviewed Lewis-manning Hospice Care's
reserves policy in March 2024. The recommendation of the reserves policy review in
2024 remain in place, The guiding principle is that we need to maintain sufficient funds in
order to avoid any cashflow issues, to respond to and recover from fluctuations in income
and unforeseen events and to maintain our important services and support to our
patients and carers which we know is so vital to our local community. It was felt
important to hold suff icient general reserves to cover 6 to 9 months of operating costs.
Our business-as-usual operating costs that need to be covered by general reseNes are
calculated net of restricted funds held and net of planned designated fund expenditure
and NHS contractual income which is guaranteed for the following year.
The Finance and Operations Committee will continue to actively review the risks faced by
our Charity and discuss these with the Board of Trustees in relation to our reserves level.

on the group or the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for
a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so. consider whether the
other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements. or our
knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated, If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material
misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material
misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have

the parent charitable company financial statements are not in agreement with the
accounting records and returns. or
• certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made., or

Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees, Responsibilities set out on page 18,
the Trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the
purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements
and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as
the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the
group and the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern,
disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern
basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent
charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under the Companies Act 2006 and report in
accordance with regulations made under that Act.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the group and parent
financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable
assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if. individually or
in the aggregate. they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
Page 41

Independent Auditor's
Report
Lewis-manning
Hospice Care
Annual Report
2024- 2025
We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material
misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this
engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities,
including fraud are detailed below.
Identifying and assessing risks related to irregularities:
We assessed the susceptibility of the group and parent charitable company's financial
statements to material misstatement and how fraud might occur, including through
discussions with the Trustees, discussions within our audit team planning meeting,
updating our record of internal controls and ensuring these controls operated as
intended. We evaluated possible incentives and opportunitie5 for fraudulent manipulation
of the financial statements. We identified laws and regulations that are of significance in
the context of the group and parent charitable company by discussions with senior
management and updating our understanding of the sector in which the group and
parent charitable company operate.
Laws and regulations of direct significance in the context of the group and parent
charitable company include The Companies Act 2006 and guidance issued by the Charitv
Commission for England and Wales.
Further the group is subject to other laws and regulations where the consequences of
non-compliance could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial
statements, through significant fine, litigation or restrictions on the charity's operations,
We identified the most significant laws and regulations to be those monitored by the
Care Quality Commission,
Audit response to risks identified:
We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our
audit procedures on the related financial statement items including a review of financial
statement disclosures. We reviewed the parent charitable company's records of breaches
of laws and regulations, minutes of meetings and correspondence with relevant
authorities to identify potential material misstatements arising. We discussed the parent
charitable company's policies and procedures for compliance with laws and regulations
with members of management responsible for compliance.
During the planning meeting with the audit team, the engagement partner drew attention
to the key areas which might involve non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud.
We enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of
Page 42

Independent Auditor's
Report
Lewis-manning
Hospice Care
Annual Report
2024- 2025
non-compliance with laws and regulations or knowledge of any actual, suspected or
alleged fraud. We addressed the risk of fraud through management override of controls
by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and identifying any significant
transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course of business. We assessed
whether judgements made in making accounting estimates gave rise to a possible
indication of management bias. At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement
partner's review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with
appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance
with laws and regulations and fraud.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further
removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions
reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also,
the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higherthan the risk of
not detecting one resulting from error. as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by,
for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

2024- 2025
Subsidiary companies
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity. Control is achieved where the charity
has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain
benefits from its activities.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between the
charity and its subsidiaries, which are related parties, are eliminated in full.
Intra-group losses are also eliminated but may indicate an impairmentthat requires
recognition in the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the group,
Lewis-manning Hospice Care is the parent Company of the following subsidiaries:
Lewis-manning Hospice Care (Retail) Limited.,
Lewis-manning Hospice Care (Lottery) Limited: and
Lewis-manning Hospice Care {Furniture Warehouse) Limited
All three subsidiaries are 100% owned and are all registered in England and Wales. The
group accounts include the balances of all three subsidiaries and the results of the first
two named above. Lewis-manning Hospice Care (Furniture Warehouse) Limited was
dormant throughout the current and preceding years.
Going concern
The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the group's ability to
continue as a going concern.
Income and endowments
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable
that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be
measured reliably.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the
amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that
require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds,
the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or
the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is
probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Accounts

Annual Report
2024- 2025
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the statement of financial activities at
the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Legacy gifts are recognised on a case-by-case basis following the grant of probate when
the administratorlexecutor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount
and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a
financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of
the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the
asset having been transferred to the charity.
Gifts in kind
Gifts in kind are treated as donated goods or services and have been recognised when
received, provided they can be reliably measured. The gifts have been measured at fair
value.
Other trading activities
Income from commercial trading activities is recognised as earned as the related goods
and services are provided,
Investment income
Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.
Charitable activities
Income from charitable activities includes income recognised as earned {as the related
goods or services are provided) under contract.
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that
expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably.
All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to
that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have
been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs
allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of
the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. All
resources expended are inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
Raising funds
These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income. the management of investments
and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

Lewis-manning

Annual Report
2024- 2025
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its
activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated
directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support
them.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating
property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs
by their usage.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity's compliance with constitutional and
statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and Trustees, meetings
and reimbursed expenses.
Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it
was incurred.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the
Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK
corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in
respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part
I l of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains
Act 1992. to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable
purposes.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any
subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation,
less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class
Freehold Buildings
Leasehold Improvements
Fixtures. Fittings and equipment
IT Equipment
MotorVehicle5

Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services
perfomed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for
impairment. A provision forthe impairment of trade debtors is established when there is
objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to
the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and call deposits, and other short-term
highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are
subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in
the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as
current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the
reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the
reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve
months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs.
Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the
difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on
redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over
the period of the relevant borrowing.
Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is
included in interest payable and similar charges.

Notes to the
Accounts
Lewis-manning
Hospice Care
Annual Report
2024- 2025
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional
right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
date.
Concessionary loans include those payable to third parties which are interest free or
below market interest rates and are received to advance charitable purposes. All loans
are measured at cost, less impairment as permitted by section 34 of FRS 102.
Fund structure
Restricted funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes,
the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
Unrestricted funds are made up of Fixed asset funds, designated funds and general
funds. Their purpose is as follows:

activities of Lewis-manning Hospice Care.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes at the
discretion of the Trustees.
General funds are funds that are available for use at the Trustees, discretion in
furtherance of the objectives of the group.

I'd never have known you have Parkinson's
I'd never have known you have such a gift
I'd never have known you mask it so well
I'm sorry you have a broken arm, a broken leg
Let's have some fun and draw on your cast
I'm sorry to hear you've been ill in bed
Rest, will help the body heal
I'll send some grapes you don't have to peel
I'd never have known you have Parkinson's
By the way, what is that?
I wondered what was wrong, your face looks drawn you shake a lot
That is one of the Masks of Parkinson's
It comes in many disguises both young and old
Sometimes you'd never know unless you've been told
It's degenerative. its neurological
Think of it as internal sun spots
Causing brain and body to have communication blocks
My brain is fine I have a mind
l just have difficulty in standing and walking the line
It will get no better so with it I live
But strangely enough it's a hidden gift
That too is the mask of Parkinson's
My life has changed in many ways
My loved ones I share less and less
It's like a a cruise ship slowly drifting apart
However, with mighty chains and anchors, which is
The medication, and the tugs that keep it in tow
I'd never have known you had anything wrong
In truth, You still don't understand
so let's move on
I'll shake and Tremor day and night
But the joy of Parkinson's are those that keep me bright
Family friends and sufferers are happy and light
Bright l am, bright I hope to stay, today tomorrow and everyday
