## **Achievements and performance 2022-23** 

It has been an incredibly busy year at KEMP Hospice with many exciting developments, as well as challenges with recruitment, increasing complexities and demands on services. Despite the challenges, in 2022-2023 KEMP Hospice has continued to develop and continue services without any or minimal disruption. We have reopened our services fully to the new normal following the main Covid-19 pandemic years of 2020-2022. 

## **Service provision** 

Our KEMP Hospice Services Team includes specialists which provide, rehab and exercise, occupational therapy, creative arts and complementary therapies, financial and welfare support, and wellbeing support. Patients, families, and carers can access support from our team of specialists through one-to-one appointments, group settings on site or virtually, as well as outreaching services and support to patients’ home. The KEMP Hospice Specialist Team, work with the patient to develop an individualised holistic plan of care and support which is regularly reviewed with the patient and adapted to their individual needs. 

KEMP Hospice Outreach provides specialist support, advice, education, and training to 44 care homes in the Wyre Forest District; advocating and supporting residents to ensure their wishes and preferences are known and supported with regards to advanced care planning and care. 

We have experienced a challenging year with recruitment which seems to be the trend experienced within the hospice sector and NHS providers locally and nationally. 

This has required KEMP Hospice to be innovative in our recruitment strategy of health professionals. As part of this review process, we have employed a Development Clinical Nurse Specialist who will complete a

structured competency and training framework over a 2-year period. To deliver this training we have collaborated with St Richards Hospice and the Community Specialist Palliative Team who will provide placement hours gaining experience in all aspects of specialist palliative care. 

We have recruited into two key posts; Care Services Manager (previous incumbent retired in December 2022) and Family Support & Bereavement Services Manager. This places KEMP in a strong position to continue developing our service provision for those living within the Wyre Forest. 

## **Family Support and Bereavement** 

Our bereavement team of specialist counsellors and trained volunteers support anyone who is facing or who has experienced a bereavement or loss in the last 5 years. Our services are available to children from the age of 5, young people and adults, through one-to-one counselling and group support. Bereavement clients can be seen at the hospice, at school and in people’s homes. Our young people’s service offers therapeutic support including using arts, crafting, play and talking to enable young people to explore their emotions as well as regular memory days throughout the year. 

Members of the Family Support & Bereavement Counselling Team are working with colleagues from St Richards and Primrose Hospices and will be delivering training to schools across Worcestershire. The first training session was delivered February 2023. This training will support schools to develop appropriate and supportive bereavement policies so that children and young people have access to good immediate support from their school following a bereavement. In May 2022 we ran a Memory Day for children receiving bereavement support at an outdoor activity centre. 

## **Activity 2022-23** 

## **Care Services Referrals & Activity** 

Patients are now accessing a wider level of support provided by the multi-disciplinary team, and we have seen a significant increase in 2022-23 for Day Hospice Services with a total of 493 referrals compared to 313 in 2021-22.

We received 335 referrals (327 2021/22) for support for bereaved adults and 153 (149 2021/22) for children and young people. We had seen a significant increase in demand in 2021-22 and this increase has remained consistent in 2022-23. We have had a total of 4,458 contacts with clients and of those 3,142 were with adults (4,101 2021/22) and 1,352 were children and young people contacts (1,735 2021/22). Contacts are sessions which are delivered either by phone, face to face or virtual. The reduction in contacts in 202223 compared to the previous year reflects the return of face-to-face sessions following the pandemic. 

## **Additional Key Highlights / Developments in Services 2022-23** 


- CQC direct monitoring call held 25/07/22 with CQC inspector, LG (Head of Hospice Services) and KC (Care Services Manager). The outcome was that there was no need for inspection in 2022-2023 and for another monitoring call in around 12 months unless a need to reassess raised with CQC. This was updated on the CQC website as follows: We reviewed the information and data available to us about KEMP Hospice on 8 September 2022. We have not found evidence that we need to reassess the rating at this stage. We will continue to monitor information about this service. 


- EMIS electronic notes went live for the Care Services Team. This has been designed for our specialist needs to enable comprehensive assessments, documentation and reporting which will enable evidencing and enhanced reporting of our impact and care. Once data sharing agreements have been finalised EMIS will allow information sharing between GPs, community services and hospices which will be beneficial for patient care and improve communication and collaborative working between service providers. 


- Outreaching Complementary Therapy and Exercise & Wellbeing into patients place of residence. 


- A new befriending service launched in April 2023 following the appointment of a Befriending Volunteer Coordinator in August 2022.  The KEMP Befriending Service aims to provide companionship, emotional support, and a listening ear to those living with life limiting illness who may be experiencing isolation and loneliness in their home. The KEMP Befriending Service places a volunteer with someone who would benefit from a weekly visit to offer company and conversation. They may join in with hobbies and interests of the person they are visiting but will not be permitted or required to provide any personal or medical care.

_Counselling has changed my life forever. After everything you think you can’t ever think you can be who you are again.

_It made me realise I am important, and I deserve a life._ 

## **Generation of Income** 


- KEMP Hospice has a varied portfolio of fundraising initiatives. This ensures that supporters have a wide range of ways in which to engage with the charity and minimises the risk of becoming dependent on any one fundraising activity. 


- KEMP Hospice is registered with the Fundraising Regulator. We adhere to and maintain the standards set out by the regulator, ensuring our fundraising is legal, open, honest, and respectful to the public. Furthermore, we are committed to adhering to the Institute of Fundraising Code of Fundraising Practice and the specific guidance on treating donors fairly (through Respect, Fairness, Accountable, Responsive) in all our fundraising activities, ensuring that we protect vulnerable people. We received no complaints in relation to our fundraising activities during the year. 


- We are fortunate to have strong community support and benefit from a number of third-party events. Our dedicated Community Fundraiser and wider fundraising team supports all events we are aware of, and ensures regulations are being adhered to.

Canvassers are employed by Your Hospice Lottery but engage with KEMP as part of their induction. These fundraisers engage with the public at external venues, events, and by carrying out door to door activity. They are not permitted to carry out these activities without identification, are highly trained, and never collect or accept money. Neither do they pursue individuals who have made it clear they do not wish to engage. 


- We have a Donations Centre in Kidderminster and operate 6 retail charity shops across Kidderminster, Stourport and Bewdley as well as our own online eBay shop. 

## **Sincere Thanks** 

The flexible approach and dedication to ensuring the people who need our services continued to be cared for and supported throughout this year would not have been possible without the dedication of our hardworking staff along with the very many willing volunteers who give freely of their time and talents and we would like to take this opportunity to thank them all for their efforts. 

At the end of the financial year we are fortunate to have an incredible 190 individuals volunteering their time across our charity within Retail; Fundraising; Finance; Care and Bereavement Services; and on our Board of Trustees. In total an incredible 32,253 hours of time, commitment, hard work and skills were shared to help us in delivering our work.

## **Risk Management** 

We have a risk policy and register to enable the identification, monitoring and management of controls to mitigate risks. The Senior Team and Board of Trustees consider risks on a quarterly basis. The key strategic risks are: 

- **Failure to raise the required funds to deliver our services.** We have skilled and experienced staff and 

- trustees in key roles. As well as quarterly income and financial scrutiny, our income and expenditure is reviewed on a monthly basis and any variances against budget are reviewed. We also have a comprehensive fundraising strategy. 

- **Changing social attitudes may reduce the pool of people who will enable us to fulfil our planned** 

- **recruitment of volunteers.** We mitigate this risk by nurturing relationships with organisations and individuals who can support us in facilitating recruitment of potential volunteers, as well as exploring ways to taking a collaborative approach to volunteer attraction and recruitment with other hospices and charities. 

- **Competing with Agenda for Change pay and reward packages could affect our recruitment of health** 

- **and social care colleagues.** As well as an emphasis on communicating our culture and carrying out regular benchmarking activities, we are committed to building on strong recruitment and employment foundations to ensure people who work with us are engaged and valued. 

- **Changes in government/Integrated Care Board funding and commissioning strategy.** We maintain 

- effective, open relationships with our commissioners and ensure all reporting requirements are met. 

- **Failure to comply with safeguarding requirements.** We ensure all relevant roles undertake 

- mandatory safeguarding training, and the board of trustees and management team ensure that processes and procedures are up to date and relevant. 

## **Risk and Compliance** 

As a company and charity providing regulated and commissioned services, we follow codes of ethics and practice in our services and fundraising activities; we take our regulatory responsibilities seriously and work to protect our reputation and credibility as a professional organisation. 


- We are thankful that we had no reportable incidents throughout the financial year. This applies to the Fundraising Regulator, CQC, ICO and Charity Commission. 


- We had no CQC visit in this financial year, although our Head of Hospice Services and Care Services Manager took part in a virtual engagement meeting with our Inspector in July 2022 and updated on our changes in service delivery. There were no concerns raised. 


- We continue to review all clinical policies and procedures, as well as ensuring a focus on the CQC Key Lines of Enquiry. 


- All mandatory training has been carried out in line with our plans for the year and we have reviewed and updated our mandatory training matrix as part of the People policies review.

For the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **Reserves policy and going concern** 

The trustees have examined the charity’s requirements for reserves considering the main risks as listed above to the organisation, including assessed projected future income, expenditure and cashflows. 

The Trustees believe the Charity’s financial resources and contingency planning is sufficient to ensure the continuation of the Charity as a going concern for the foreseeable future. Consequently, the financial statements have been prepared on this basis. 

A reserves policy is established to ensure the Charity has the financial capacity needed to safeguard the provision of vital services to patients and carers from the adverse financial effects of significant and unforeseen changes in income and expenditure. 

The boards target policy for available reserves are that the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be at least 6 months and no more than 18 months of anticipated expenditure. Based on the latest set of accounts, this should be between £846k and £2,540k.  The Charity is a going concern, and the Board of Trustees fully intend to see this continue long into the future. Should this not be possible, available reserves would assist the Charity in honouring its commitments to patients and carers, employees, supporters and creditors as it scales back operations. 

At the end of the financial year unrestricted reserves for the Charity were £1,704,457 (2022: £1,624,197), which is 12 months of the anticipated expenditure and representative of the desired reserves position. 

Available reserves are calculated in accordance with the Charity Commission guidance as follows: 

||£|
|---|---|
|Total Reserves|2,688,124|
|Less||
|Restricted Reserves|(567,600)|
|Designated funds – Capitalprojects|(412,067)|
|Designated funds – Wellbeing|(4,000)|
|||
|Available unrestricted reserves|1,704,457|



The board manages financial risks, such as income or cost fluctuation by regularly reviewing our financial plans and income pipelines. 

## **Plans for the future** 

As we enter the last year of KEMP’s current 5-year strategy we will begin to focus on creating a new strategy for the organisation which will focus on the future needs of the growing population in the Wyre Forest. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

KEMP Hospice is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 14 November 2011 and registered as a charity on 9 March 2012.

Its results are set out in note 12 of these financial statements. 

## **The Board of Trustees** 

KEMP Hospice trustees review the aims, objectives, and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes. 

The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set. The trustees agree the strategic direction of the charity through the preparation and monitoring of a 5-year strategy. To support delivery of the strategy, an operational business plan and budget is developed annually, approved, and reviewed by the trustees. Our full strategy can be viewed by visiting our website: 

Progress towards achieving objectives is monitored and reviewed through the respective sub-committee which are focussed on Services, Finance, Resources and Risk and Income Generation, and at full Board meetings of the trustees. Monthly management accounts and quarterly reports by the Chief Executive and departmental managers are provided. 

Day-to-day responsibility for the management of the charity is delegated to a senior management team of six, comprising: Chief Executive Officer, Caroline Beech; Head of Finance, Rachel Paget; Head of Fundraising & Communications, Jayne Sargeant; Head of Hospice Services, Laurey Grennall; Head of People, Andy Stanney and Head of Retail, Gary Barnes. The senior management team meet fortnightly to discuss both strategic and operational matters.

## Trustees’ annual report 


## For the year ended 31 March 2023 

The trustees consider that they have complied with their duty in Section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 and have referred to the guidance provided by the Charity Commission on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives. 

The Board of Trustees have embraced the Charity Governance Code, carrying out a self-assessment and have identified two key areas of focus: how the charity can demonstrate not only our financial/economic sustainability, but also our ecological and environmental impact in all our operations and how the organisation can embed Equality, Diversity and Inclusion within our culture and across all operations, including within the Board itself. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

KEMP Hospice recruit trustees based on several factors including, but not limited to, the need for a particular skill, a mix of backgrounds, experiences and considering a range of dynamics. The charity utilises social media to promote trustee vacancies, as well as charity and individual networks. A comprehensive structured recruitment process includes formal interview, time spent with a range of the charity personnel, and attendance at two Board meetings. The existing trustees then vote to appoint. 

Within this financial year the Board appointed Phil Davison as a trustee. 

The following committees remain unchanged throughout the year; MAGIC (Marketing and Generation of Income Committee), Finance, Resource and Risk Committee, and Hospice Services Committee. Trustees must complete mandatory training which includes: safeguarding; data security awareness; equality, diversity and human rights; and health and safety. 

## None of the trustees are remunerated. 

## **Related parties and relationships with other organisations** 

**KEMP House Trust** is a separate registered charity (charity no. 511141), governed by a Trust Deed, which manages an investment portfolio and whose principal objective is to support the activities of KEMP Hospice, on provision of a costed business case which demonstrates the benefits to the beneficiaries of the hospice services. 

During the year ending March 2023 there were four trustees, who meet quarterly and manage and oversee the investment portfolio with the professional advice of Investec Wealth and Investment Ltd. who meet with the trustees twice a year and provide regular written reports to the board. 

**KEMP House Trust (Hospice Shop Ltd):** The Trading Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Hospice. There were two directors serving during the year who have accountability for retail activities. The Hospice Chief Executive has ultimate responsibility for the management of the Hospice and Trading Company. Both of the current directors are hospice Trustees. The Head of Retail and Head of Finance & Infrastructure attend the Board meetings, which are held quarterly. 

Following a review of the organisational structure and the decision to continue with the operation of the trading company, the work to negotiate lease terms of the retail property portfolio continues.

KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

Trustees’ annual report 


For the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

The trustees (who are also directors of KEMP Hospice 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 Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law 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 charitable company and group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company or group 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 UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 


- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation 


The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

In so far as the trustees are aware: 

- There is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware 


- The trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information 


The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31 March 2023 was 8 (2022: 8). The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.

Independent auditor’s report 

## To the members of 

## KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiary (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities, the group and parent charitable company balance sheets, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 _The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland_ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion, the financial statements: 

- Give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and of the parent charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of the group’s and parent charitable company’s incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended 

- Have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice 

- Have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the group financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Independent auditor’s report 

To the members of 

## KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

## **Other Information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report other than the group financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the group financial statements does not cover the other information, and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the group 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 group financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- The information given in the trustees’ annual report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements 

- The trustees’ annual report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the parent charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ annual report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- Adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- 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 

- We have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- The directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the trustees’ annual report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.

Independent auditor’s report 

KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

## To the members of 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 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’s 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 auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and section 151 of the Charites Act 2011 and report in accordance with those Acts. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 (UK) 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. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below. 

## **Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities** 

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: 

- We enquired of management, and the finance and income committee, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the group’s policies and procedures relating to: 

   - Identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; 

   - Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud; 

18 



Independent auditor’s report 

## To the members of 

## KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

   - The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. 

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the group operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the group from our professional and sector experience. 

- We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

- We reviewed any reports made to regulators. 

- We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. 

- We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. 

- In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business. 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation.  This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. 

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities _._ This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

KEMP Hospice (formerly KEMP House Trust Limited) 

## Notes to the financial statements 

## For the year ended 31 March 2023 

- 1 Accounting policies 

- a) Statutory information 

KEMP Hospice is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in England and Wales. KEMP Hospice changed its name from KEMP House Trust Limited by resolution on 30th Sepetmber 2022. The registered office address is 41 Mason Road, Kidderminster, Worcestershire, DY11 6AG. 

## b) 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

These financial statements consolidate the results of the charity and its wholly-owned subsidiary KEMP House Trust (Hospice Shop) Limited on a line by line basis. Transactions and balances between the charity and its subsidiary have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. Balances between the two entities are disclosed in the notes of the charity's balance sheet. A separate statement of financial activities, or income and expenditure account, for the charity itself is not presented as a summary of the result for the year is disclosed in the notes to the accounts. 

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

The accounts are prepared as full values however are presented to the nearest £1. This may cause small discrepancies in the financial statements. 

In applying the financial reporting framework, the trustees have made a number of subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. 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. The nature of the estimation means the actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. Any significant estimates and judgements affecting these financial statements are detailed within the relevant accounting policy below. 

## c) Public benefit entity 

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

## d) Going concern 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. Further information in relation to the trustees' appraisal of going concern is included in the trustees' annual report. 

There are no key judgements that the charity has made which have a significant effect on the accounts. 

The trustees do not consider that there are any 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. 

In the prior year, the directors approved the decision to liquidate the company as the premises leases and trading activity would be transferred to the parent company (KEMP Hospice, formerly KEMP House Trust Limited). The movement of the premises leases between the companies has been delayed and although the directors still intend for this transfer to occur, they plan to keep this company open for other trading purposes. 

- e) Income 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. 

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

## Notes to the financial statements 

## For the year ended 31 March 2023 

- 1 Accounting policies (continued) 

- f) Donations of gifts, services and facilities 

   - Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution. 

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

## g) Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Grants 

The trading subsidiary has received a Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Grant from the local authority for each shop. The grants were received and were recognised in the financial year ending 31 March 2021 based on an entitlement date of 1 April 2020 as per the guidance issued by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. 

## h) Interest receivable 

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. 

## i) Fund accounting 

- Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor.  Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund. 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes. 

## j) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

- Costs of raising funds relate to the costs incurred by the charity in seeking donations, grants and legacies and costs of trading activities including the costs of goods sold, shop costs and their associated support costs 

- Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of providing specialist palliative care and support and the costs of community services undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs 

- Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## k) Allocation of support costs 

Where possible, costs have been allocated directly to the activity to which they relate. However, there are also shared support costs that enable the hospice's charitable, income generating and governance activities to be undertaken. Support and governance costs are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity 

- Cost of raising funds 34% 

- Hospice services 66% 

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity.  These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities.

Notes to the financial statements 

## For the year ended 31 March 2023 

- 1 Accounting policies (continued) 

## l) Operating leases 

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. 

## m) Tangible fixed assets 

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use. 

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows: 

- Leasehold land & buildings 

- Leasehold property improvements 

- Motor vehicles 

- Office equipment 

- Furniture & equipment 

4% straight line and 99 years 5 years 4 years 3 years 3 years and 25% reducing balance 

## n) Investments in subsidiaries 

Investments in subsidiaries are at cost. 

## o) Stocks 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.  In general, cost is determined on a first in first out basis and includes transport and handling costs.  Net realisable value is the price at which stocks can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for the costs of realisation.  Provision is made where necessary for obsolete, slow moving and defective stocks. 

## p) Debtors 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid. 

## q) Cash at bank and in hand 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## r) Creditors and provisions 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## s) Financial instruments 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## t) Pensions 

Pension contributions to the group personal pension plan are charged against income when payable.
