## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY Year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **CHAIR’S REPORT** 

This last year has been a year of change and revision for the Society with the founder and former Chairman retiring in March 2023.  During 2022 partly due to the absence of the chair due to illness, the management committee stepped up and began a more formal process of meeting, sharing responsibilities and setting goals by way of a workplan, encouraging greater involvement from the trustees and securing ways of working in terms of contacts, secure systems and passwords. 

## **JAMES LIND ALLIANCE PRIORITY SETTING PARTNERSHIP ON PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA** 

The Top Ten uncertainties identified by the Priority Setting Partnership with the James Lind Alliance remains a core priority for the Society and further work needs to be done to identify sources who can drive through research projects on the questions. 

## **NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR HEALTH AND CARE EXCELLENCE GUIDELINE ON VITAMIN B12 DEFICIENCY INCLUDING PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA** 

NICE has unfortunately delayed the publication of the consultation documents and the eventual publication of the new guidelines which are not now expected until July 2023 and February 2024 respectively.   We have grave concerns that the eventual guidelines will not significantly help our members get improved diagnosis and treatment. 

## **CLUB-12** 

We provided financial support by sponsoring the first symposium held by Club-12 in Cambridge in September 2022.  Three members of PAS attended this event.  Club-12 was formed in January 2020 to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and co-ordinate research into Vitamin B12 between Scientists and Healthcare Professionals.  The event was well attended by eminent physicians and researchers and included valuable presentations from respected and knowledgeable presenters and encouraged healthy debate.   Members of the management committee continue to attend Club-12 meetings which are held by Zoom and contribute as a Patient Advocacy group by representing the needs and experiences of patients with or potentially with Pernicious Anaemia. 

## **AGM 2022** 

The Annual General Meeting of the Society took place virtually on Saturday 10 September 2022. 

Focussing on one of our core goals to provide support to members we improved the content of our newsletters, carried out training for support group co-ordinators, introduced new support groups including one in the USA which started at the beginning of 2023.  We also engaged a social media expert to help improve our reach to members and potential members. 

We have worked closely with the University of Surrey PhD student on a pilot study which in the coming year will be a full research study and have put in place an agreement with Norwich University for a further part time PhD research student focussing on Pernicious Anaemia and B12. 

## **SEMINAR** 

Due to ongoing concerns on meetings in person post Covid we decided to not have a face-to-face conference and instead we held an online seminar on 15[th] October 2022 for our members with respected speakers including Heidi Seague, Kourosh Ahmadi and Martyn Hooper and chaired by Katrina Burchell.  This seminar was well attended and received excellent feedback.   The management committee decided to repeat this format annually if possible and re-visit in person conferences in the future.

## **The Future** 

We face a challenging 12-18 months as we await the outcome of NICE and restructure the organisation of the Society post Martyn Hooper’s departure. There are also challenges as donations to small charities are generally decreasing and our membership remains static.   However, we have a small but committed team of volunteers and a few trustees who are willing to help and share their guidance for the Society.

## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2023** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing Document** 

The Pernicious Anaemia Society is a registered charity and company limited by guarantee, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Assocation. In accordance with the constitution of the company every member undertakes to contribute £1 to the company's assets should it be wound up. 

## **Recruitment and Appointment of the Management Committee.** 

The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purpose of charity law.  All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity for their roles. The trustees appoint the members of the  Management Committee, based on the skills and experience they feel will be of benefit to the charity. 

## **Appointment of Directors/Trustees** 

As set out in the company's Articles of Association, the directors/(trustees) may, by ordinary resolution, appoint a person willing to serve in that capacity. 

## **Induction and Training** 

New directors undergo a period of orientation to brief them on: their legal obligations under charity and company law, the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and inform them of the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Committee and decision-making process, the current business plan and the recent financial performance of the organisation. They are encouraged to attend appropriate training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role. 

## **Organisation** 

The board of trustees, which has a minimum of 5 members but no maximum, administers the organisation. 

The day to day operations are delegated to the management committee members as and when necessary. 

Page 7 



## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2023** 

## **Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

The charity trustees (who are also the directors of the Pernicious Anaemia Society for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of that period. 

In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to select suitable accounting policies, as described on pages 13 to 15, and then apply them consistently, observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP and make judgements and estimates that are prudent and reasonable. The trustees must also 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 proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. 

## **RISK MANAGEMENT** 

The Management Committee has conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The financial statements reflect the charity's activities for the year ended 31 March 2023. At the year end the movement on unrestricted funds amounted to a net deficit of £54,177 compared to a deficit for 2022 of £15,468. 

The net movement on restricted funds amounted to a surplus of £4,671 compared to a surplus of £2,829 for 2022. 

## **INVESTMENT POLICY** 

The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the society, have kept any surplus day to day funds in an interest bearing bank deposit account. 

Page 8 



## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2023** 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

The Management Committee has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held should be between 3 and 6 months of average unrestricted expenditure. 

The unrestricted general funds at 31 March 2023 excluding fixed assets, amounted to £11,300 compared to £64,180 at 31st March 2022. 

The charity has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue operating for the forseeable future. 

## **EMPLOYEE MATTERS** 

As the charity has no employees it does not yet have a policy in place relating to employee matters. The activities of the charity are carried out by unpaid volunteers. 

By order of the board of trustees

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY Year ended 31 March 2023** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Pernicious Anaemia Society for the year ended 31st March 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are reponsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with 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. 

## **Independent examiners' statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material 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 

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 & Republic of Ireland (FRS102) 

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.

## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY** 

## **Notes to the accounts Year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **1 Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

The accounts 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 the Republic of Ireland (FRS102). 

The charity is a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these accounts are rounded to the nearest £. 

The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis as the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue operating for the forseeable future. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

The restricted fund represents a fund started for research into the relationship between Stomach Cancer and Pernicious Anaemia. It will continue to grow until it reaches £10,000 when it will be handed over to Professor Mark Pritchard. 

## **Fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of fixed assets over their useful lives at the rate of 25% on a reducing balance basis. 

## **Impairment of assets** 

At each reporting date the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered any impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss, (if any).

## **THE PERNICIOUS ANAEMIA SOCIETY** 

## **Notes to the accounts Year ended 31st March 2023** 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when there is entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and it is not deferred. 

Grants and donations  are included when received. 

Gift Aid is included on an accruals basis 

Income from charitable activities is shown gross with associated costs included as charitable expenditure. The income is accounted for when received. 

## **Expenditure** 

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. 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities. 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the consititutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the fees for the independent examination. 

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

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand represents highly liquid funds held in bank accounts. 

## **Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. 

Basic financial instruments are recognised in the Balance Sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provision of the instrument.
