ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

During the year 2021/22, the society went back to holding in person, face to face meetings. The Spring members meeting and one day course was held in Oxford and was a huge success. The meeting was attended by 150 members over the two days. The conference was well supported by both members and non members.
The 2022 AGM was held in November in London with a high turnout of 98 members. The meeting provided the forum for the AGM and Business meeting of the society as well as invited speaker lectures and members presentations.
The BSSR Grand Round series has been started by Dr Priya Suresh and has been well received and well attended so far. This is a series of monthly teaching sessions on various MSK topics held online. The sessions are free to attend but the delegates must register in advance.
The Travelling Professor Post for 2022/23 which is jointly awarded by the BSSR and the RCR was awarded to Dr Gina Allen from Oxford. The BSSR fund 50% of the value of the award which constitutes £5,000.
The society once again, funded a prize of £100 for the society of Radiologists in Training Annual Meeting.
As in previous years, the society has outsourced administration and secretarial services to Biomedex to ensure the smooth running of the society. Biomedex also help with administration related to the website and have recently increased their involvement, with helping to run the online Grand round Sessions, creating the registration and promotion websites for the BSSR Refresher course and members meeting in March 2023.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The society will strive to provide further educational resource and content to the members through both face to face and online initiatives. Following on from the March 2021 virtual members meeting, the society held the first face to face meeting in over 2 years in November 2021 in London.
Website development is now almost complete but the Education and Training page of the site now functioning and populated. The plans for the monthly grand round teaching sessions are all underway and include collaboration with other societies and podcast productions covering recent research work in the field of Musculoskeletal Radiology. These have been loaded up to the website on the Education page.
Links continue with the Royal College of Radiologists, the International Skeletal Society and the European Society of Radiology. The BSSR will host a session at the ISS meeting in London in 2023.
Following on from the previous successful 2021 online meeting run by the trainee members, plans have been made to have a further Trainee meeting in September / October 2023 using a similar platform and is to be run by our two new trainee representatives on the committee.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of British Society of Skeletal Radiologists ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 June 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
