Hoxton Health

Acompany limited by guarantee

Report of the Trustee Board

For the year ending March 2023

The Trustees are pleased to present their report along with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 March 2023.

The accounts are prepared under the Statement of Recommended Practice, the Financial Reporting system applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

Purpose

Hoxton Health was set up to

" To enable older people to lead independent lives within the community; " To improve the mobility of service users; " To offer service users coping strategies to deal with chronic degenerative diseases; " To reduce isolation; " To help older people make informed choices regarding their health care.

Public Benefit

Hoxton Health trustees have regard of the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance when reviewing the aims, objectives and activities of the charity.

Hoxton Health offers a range of one to one and group activities designed to support older people to maintain or improve their health and wellbeing.

Summary of the year

In the year we provided 3845 face to face treatments either in clinic or as home visits. Our client group are older people with one or more long term health conditions. We operate in an inner city borough with high levels of deprivation. Many of the people who use our services are from racially minoritised communities. Following COVID, it is widely recognised and reported that older people, people from minority communities and people from lower socio — economic groups were most at risk of developing serious illness and dying. This reflects our service user base so we continue to be concerned for their physical and mental health. COVID also impacted our service, and having re-opened fully in the last financial year, we have continued to build back our service, particularly in developing partnerships with local voluntary sector groups, and the local NHS.

Fundraising

This year we are grateful for grants and contracts from Compass Wellbeing, Pink Ribbon (with Macmillan), St Mary’s Secret Garden (for Tai Chi classes), Hackney Housing (for exercise classes) and to the City of London, Hackney Downs PCN, Shoreditch and City PCN, City and Hackney Clinic Commissioning Group/NEL for foothealth, and Mildmay Hospital (for foothealth in the hospital)

Our especial thanks go to City & Hackney Clinical Commissioning Group who paid our rent for 2021/22.

4

Financial Review

Hoxton Health offers subsidised therapies and the fees make up about 50% of our income. During this year we incurred additional costs as we were paying therapists to cleanse and ventilate between appointments and we invested in PPE and sanitisers.

In the financial year 2022/23 we earned £67,994 in fees, towards our total costs of £124,647 with grant and contract income providing the balance.

Reserves Policy

Trustees reviewed the reserves policy in March 2021 and the designated reserves were set at £10,000 to cover short-term operation and any wind up costs, and / or to give time to identify further funding to ensure sustainability.

Investment Policy

The charities policy is to invest any surplus money in bank accounts earning interest.

Going Concern

The Trustees at the date of signing the report and accounts consider the charity a going concern based on their assessment of existing funds and secured income for the next year.

Risk Management Hoxton Health has a formal risk management process where risks are identified and are ranked by likelihood and impact. The board then considers mitigations. This leads to a risk control document that is reviewed at every board meeting.

Future Plans

Based on previous survey work, continuing discussions in the Trustee Board, and direct feedback from patients we have some specific plans, and some areas for a concentrated review. We are planning a strategy day late 2023/24 to initiate the review work.

The review work will specifically look at:

We are planning to look at the following areas:

Marketing This was raised in the survey, and we know that sometimes it can be difficult for patients to find information, especially if they are not on the internet. We will work with other voluntary organisations to reach out more, as well as updating our website and social media — both for patients who are on the internet, and so that our partner organisations are more aware of what we can offer

Addressing isolation and continued pandemic recovery We know that our patients can be lonely and isolated, and we plan to work on developing out outreach and signposting, as well as checking in more regularly with people we have not heard from. We will also continue to support people with recovery from the impact of the pandemic, both through our Long Covid survey work, and in developing specific services

Patient records — we aim to improve our recording so we are able to highlight issues more readily, and also look to moving records more online

1.Accounting policies

The financial statements adhere to the historical cost convention and comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities, effective January 2020. Additionally, they align with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the companies Act 2006.

Hoxton Health 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.

The financial statements are prepared based on the following principal accounting policies.

a) Going concern

The trustees, in evaluating the going concern status, have considered the anticipated effects of COVID-19. After reviewing forecasts and assessing the availability of unrestricted funds, they affirm that there are no significant uncertainties regarding the charity's ability to sustain itself as a going concern.

b) Critical accounting judgements and estimates

In preparing these financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the charity’s accounting policies and reported assets, liabilities, income and expenditure and the disclosures made in the financial statements. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

c) Income

Donations and miscellaneous income are recognized upon receivability. Grants receivables are reported in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity is entitled to the funds, all performance conditions are satisfied, and the likelihood of receiving the income is probable with a reliably measurable amount.

All expenditure is included in the accounts on an accrual basis. The charity is not registered for VAT and, accordingly, all expenditure includes irrecoverable VAT. Administration expenditure comprises costs incurred in running the charity. Where appropriate, some of these costs have been allocated to direct charitable expenditure. e) Tangible fixed assets Fixed assets costing over £100 are capitalised at cost and depreciated ona straight-line basis over their expected useful lives, as follows: Computers, office equipment and furniture 4 years.
