The Chair or nominated representative sits on the Trust third party governance committee. The scheme has received no complaints during the year and manages its risks through the Trustees. The current risk register has no identified risks for its area of operation. BASICS Essex Objectives (Public Benefrt of the Charrtyl The Chariws objects are: The relief of persons suffering injury or illness by the provision of Immediate Medical Care. To advance the study of Immediate Medical Care by the provision of training.
Both of these objects a directly for public benefit. Our Charity meets these objects through supporting the funding of training of it5 clinicians in Immediate Medical Care and through providing equipment and support for them to deliver prehospital care and hence relieve suffering from injury and illness. At all time5 the functioning and operation of the Scheme, along with all Trustee5' decisions on its direction and expenditure. is based on due regard for the Chartty Commissions guidance on the public benefit. The Charity provides dedicated volunteer Doctors, Critical Care Paramedics and Paramedics who deliver prehospital critical care across Essex 2417. Each clinician has undergone specialist training in prehospital emergency medicine and immediate medical care. All have undergone a period of mentorship prior to being signed off to respond as part of the team. The Scheme delivers its service through individual home responders. Home responders respond from home with the equipment in their own cars. Their cars have the necessary blue lights and other equipment. Team reSFX)nders respond in the team's response car. Normally on their own or in a team of two the clinicians respond on a shift basis. The Trustees are satisfied that the Chartty continues to act in the interest of public benefit. Our Achievements in 2022 We approved a three-year strategy for the period 2023 to 2025 to further develop the Charity. We signed off two new doctors as members of the operational team. We recruited two new Critical paramedics to the scheme and signed them off. We held monthly D and D events to allow clinicians to review cases. We delivered a new clinicians induction course and saw five doctors undertake the program. We purchased three more X series monitorldefibrillators. We continued to see positive income from several trusts and foundations to support the work of the Charity. We saw an increase in activity up to 141 calls. Iup on 116 from the previous yearl The Scheme had the dedication of its new crttical care car attended by the High Sheriff of Essex. The Chairman was presented with a High Sheriff s award for his dedication to pre hospital care in the county. Five members of the Scheme were awarded the HM Queen Platinum Jubilee Medal.

The biggest cause of artivation was to trauma related incidents which made up 35% of the calls. Road Traffic Crashes made up 23% of the demand with cardiac arrest creating 20%. The rest of the calls were medically related incidents. Generous Donors During the year of 2022 the scheme benefited from donations from several sources. Their generous support of our charity enables us to continue to function and save lives. Below are the organisations who have generously supported us:
Smarter Meter Services British Association for Immediate Care via a HELP appeal grant. Essex Community Foundation National Lottery Community Fund The Harlow Health HHCT grant The Albert Hunt Fund The Hospital Saturday Fund Walter Farthing Trust Fowler Smith &Jones Trust The Lord Belstead Trust Arnold Clark Community Fund Colchester Tend (Grassroots) The Tudwick Foundation Anderson GRP Serv. Stansted Airport Community Fund The Wakeham Trust Financial Review The Charity saw a 17.5% increase in its income in 2022 to £109,693 compared to £93,295 in 2021. Of this income £65,222 was restricted funding and £44.471 was unrestrirted income. The year. whi15t better than 2021. continues to create some challenges in raising core funding lrnoney required to ensure the day to day running of the charity). The Charitws expenditure for 2022 was £98.288 which is a decrease from the 2021 total of £107.076. The Scheme's net assets increased from £235,452 in 2021 to £246,857 in 2022. This increase was driven by the purchase of three new X series Zoll monitors. The Charity continues to be in a strong financial p051tion but there remains a real need to improve our unrestricted income so as we can continue to operate the charity in the years ahead. Reserves Policy The Scheme currently has £246.857 in net assetswith £141,352 represented by cash and bank balance. The Trustees are satisfied with this position. The available reserves are £73,212 12021-£73,7021. Given the continual challenges of raising funds there is a need to ensure the Charity has reserves to meet its requirements to function. As a Charity the Scheme is required to ensure that it does not have excessive amounts of reserves and that its money is used to further its objects. Below is the extrart from the Charity's financial policy which is its Standing Financial Instructions.
The Charity must ensure that it uses its financial reserves to further its objects. The Charity must not keep large reserves as this could affect future income f rom other sources as they would want to see the charity use the money to further its objects appropriately. There is a need to ensurethat the Charity has some reserves of money to continueto function should no income be forthcoming for whatever reason. Whilst the Charity currently has a regular income this should not be relied on and proper budget production. monitoring and planning should be in place to minimise risk. The Charity will always maintain a reserve to meet its running costs for 12 months. This will be be £60.(K)O. Risks Policy The Trustees oversee the management of risks. Risks are identified through a number of ways and can be divided into clinical and charitable risks. Clinical risks are raised through a partnership relationship with the Ambulance Trust where the Trust Datix system is used to record any clinical risks that occur. Charitable risks are raised through the membership to Trustees who will oversee identification and management of risks. Work is ongoing to review the risk register ensuring it is up to date. The Trustees have reviewed the risks that are currently affecting the Charty and are content that appropriate controls and mitigations are in place. Paul Gates Chair BASICS Essex May 2023

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
The law applicable to charities requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022
1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Basics Essex Accident Rescue Service 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.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Judgements
Apart from those judgements involving estimations, the management team have not made any judgements in the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies that have significant effect on the amounts recognised in the accounts.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
There are no key assumptions concerning the future or other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
Income and endowments
Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable, the charity has entitlement and the amount can be reliably measured.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022 (continued)
Donated services and facilities
Where services or facilities are provided to the charity as a donation that would normally be purchased from our suppliers, this benefit is included in the financial statements at it's fair value unless it's fair value cannot be reliably measured, then at the cost to the donor.
Other trading activities
Income from other trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity.
Investment income
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
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.
Raising funds
These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income from donors.
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.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the Charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £150 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 | Depreciation method and rate |
|---|---|
| Medical equipment | 3 years, 5 years and 10 years straight line |
| Motor vehicles | 25% reducing balance |
| Computer equipment | 2 and 3 years straight line |

Trade creditors
Creditors are recognised when the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
