HywelDdaHealthCharities @HywelDdaCharity

Welcome

from Delyth Raynsford, Chair of the Charitable Funds Committee

I am pleased to present the 2020-2021 annual report and accounts for Hywel Dda Health Charities in what has been an extremely challenging time for the NHS during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This has been a year which, more than any other, demonstrates the impact of our charity in making a positive difference to the health, wellbeing and experience of patients, service users and NHS staff across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

The pandemic has had a significant impact on staff and services across Hywel Dda University Local Health Board over the financial year and is continuing to do so.

But our hard-working staff across the health board have risen to the immense challenge of COVID-19 and each and every one of our colleagues have joined forces to give the best care and support possible to our local communities across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

It has also been humbling and inspiring to witness the outpouring of support for the NHS from within our local communities in response to the pandemic. I am proud of the role our charity has played in being part of the response efforts of our local NHS and for the amazing support we have received which has enabled us to do this.

During 2020-2021, the generosity of our communities has once again enabled us to provide invaluable support to Hywel Dda University Local Health Board, its patients, service users and staff, above and beyond core NHS expenditure.

We are extremely grateful for every donation we receive from patients, their families and the wider community and I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank everyone who has supported our charity throughout the year.

Diolch, thank you for helping us to #makeadifference

‘It has been humbling and inspiring to witness the outpouring of support’

How we help

We work closely with Hywel Dda University Health Board to ensure that our charity allocates funding to the areas where it can make the biggest impact to the treatment and care of patients across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

We do not replace NHS funding but use the generous donations we receive from patients, their families and our local communities to support the University Health Board to provide services and activities above and beyond what the NHS can provide.

Hywel Dda University Health Board is the corporate trustee of Hywel Dda Health Charities. The charity is managed independently of the University Health Board through a separate scheme of delegation to its Charitable Funds Committee.

We carry out our aims through the provision of grants to support and enhance the NHS services provided by the University Health Board and its partners.

2. The difference we made

This year, the continued generosity of our patients, their families and our local communities has enabled us to direct our charitable donations to support a wide range of services and activities for the benefit of patients cared for by Hywel Dda University Health Board.

Our charitable donations are independent of, and are managed separately to the exchequer funds (government funds) of Hywel Dda University Health Board. The Charity Commission has regulatory responsibility for ensuring the proper management of our charitable funds. It is our job to make sure that our donations are spent carefully and for the purposes for which they were given.

We are extremely grateful for the support we receive each year which allows us to support expenditure over and above that provided by the NHS.

T hanks to the generosity of our communities, along with legacies, grants, funds from NHS Charities Together and investments, our income for 2020-2021 was £2.51 million.

Donations £830,973

Legacies £840,476

NHS Charities Together £485,000

Investments £327,381 Grants

£26,385

Our expenditure on charitable activities during 2020-21 was £1.037 million:

Medical & surgical equipment - 39% £404,430

Office & computer equipment - 18% £186,660

Building enhancements and refurbishments - 1% £10,370

How we helped

In the last financial year, the charity spent £1.037 million on making things better. Here are some examples of how we helped to make things better for NHS patients, service users and staff across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire:

----- Start of picture text -----
Winter packs for our
community colleagues
----- End of picture text -----

We are pleased to have been able to purchase over 1,000 winter packs for our NHS colleagues working across our community services, to support their welfare and wellbeing. The packs contain ice and snow shoe grips, an insulated hot/ cold water bottle, a high visibility vest and a torch and have been well-received by health workers.

----- Start of picture text -----
£50,000 worth of packages
to help older patients
----- End of picture text -----

Over £50,000 worth of equipment was purchased to help older patients, especially those with dementia and other cognitive difficulties.

RITA memory therapy software encourages social interaction and has been shown to reduce falls; improve the patient experience; help with sleep for dementia patients; improve quality of patientcentred care; alleviate boredom; and improve interaction between carers and patient, and relatives and patient.

The packages include classic TV and music programmes, old films, games and puzzles, karaoke, bingo and other programmes to help older patients in particular feel more relaxed.

It is now being used on inpatient wards across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

The investment was possible thanks to grant funding, a contribution from our Leagues of Friends as well as our charitable donations.

£38,000 lung function machine for Withybush Hospital

A new lung function machine, costing more than £38,000, has been purchased for the Cardio-Respiratory department at Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest. With demand on the cardio-respiratory service ever increasing, the upgraded equipment is helping with patient diagnosis and treatment times and improving the patient flow through the hospital.

The machine also enables electronic transfer of reports to consultants across Hywel Dda’s sites in Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, which reduces the need for additional hospital appointments.

7

Audiology equipment for Ceredigion

We have purchased new diagnostic equipment for use by audiologists at ear, nose and throat clinics held at Bronglais Hospital in Aberystwyth and Aberaeron Integrated Care Centre. The tympanometer evaluates the functioning of the middle ear and the ear drum and can identify a variety of conditions including glue ear, otosclerosis and Menieres disease.

Cerebral function monitor for Glangwili Hospital

A new bedside monitor has been purchased for the Special Care Baby Unit at Glangwili Hospital.

Costing more than £14,000, the cerebral function monitor records brain activity continuously and is used to help new-born babies who are unwell.

The monitor helps to show if a baby is having abnormal electrical activity such as a seizure.

Examination couch for the Elizabeth Williams Clinic

We have purchased a new examination couch for children and young people attending the Elizabeth Williams Clinic in Llanelli.

The outpatients’ clinic caters for children up to school leaving age and the new couch is being used for initial assessments by both nursing and health care staff. This new piece of equipment is adjustable which means it can be lowered to enable a child to get up onto it themselves, rather than a doctor or parent having to lift them up.

It assists with decision-making, to assess whether the baby can remain in Glangwili Hospital or would need to be transferred to a neonatal intensive care unit for more intensive treatment.

Video conferencing equipment for Ty Bryngwyn

Video conferencing equipment has been purchased to enable the specialist Ty Bryngwyn palliative care team at Prince Philip Hospital to link up with patients and also with medical specialists all over the UK.

The system enables consultants and clinical staff to talk to patients in their own homes, when the nursing teams are visiting them.

The equipment is also used for meetings and consultations between Hywel Dda teams across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, to enhance services for the patients.

3D goggles for children
at Glangwili Hospital
----- End of picture text -----

We have purchased 3D goggles for children and young people on Cilgerran ward at Glangwili Hospital, which have been a real hit. The goggles act as a great distraction for when children are undergoing procedures such as blood tests and having cannulas fitted. Linked to free apps on a mobile phone, the goggles enable children and young people to be in space, watching planets going past; to be on a virtual rollercoaster ride; in lots of different scenarios or watching moving pictures.

----- Start of picture text -----
A monitor for the children’s
ward at Bronglais Hospital
----- End of picture text -----

A new patient monitor has been provided for the children’s ward at Bronglais Hospital. The IntelliVue MX450 monitor is a rapid, painless and non-invasive method of diagnosis, measuring heart rate and cardiac output and is of great benefit to the child, as it enables closer monitoring to take place.

Items for the Special Care Baby Unit at Glangwili Hospital

We have purchased new items for our premature babies at Glangwili Hospital. The Special Care Baby Unit has received 30 supporting nests for premature babies, aiding muscle tone, brain development, weight gain and growth. Also provided have been 24 Frederick T. Frog positioning aids, which help with positioning babies, allowing them to feel contained, soothed and enhancing sleep.

Standing frames for physiotherapy services

Two specialist standing frames have been provided for the Children and Young People’s Physiotherapy Service to be used across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire. These frames are for children and young people undergoing physiotherapy, to help them develop their ability to stand up and to develop their overall strength.

Monitors for the
Acute Response
Team
----- End of picture text -----

Mandy Daniels works as a Health Care Support Worker for the health board’s Acute Response Team in Carmarthenshire.

When her husband Steve sadly died of pancreatic cancer in November 2020, at the age of 54, Mandy wanted to support the team in her husband’s memory to say thank you to her colleagues who helped care for Steve at home in Tumble in his final days. A total of £900 was donated by family and friends, including funeral donations and a collection at a quarry where Steve used to pick up aggregate deliveries.

At Mandy’s request, we purchased two Oxygen Saturation Monitors for use in the community. Mandy saw first-hand the difficulties of taking saturation levels via a finger. The new monitors allow measurement of saturation levels via the ear lobe, which can be more effective in palliative patients. The monitors will be used by the 65 members of the team, who carry out acute nursing, out-of-hours district nursing and palliative care.

Mandy said: “If it were not for the Acute Response Team, Steve would not have been able to spend his final days at home, which was his wish.

“Steve wanted to make a donation to the team and I’m pleased we have been able to purchase monitors to help patients.”

Comfort cushions for cancer patients at Withybush Hospital

Cancer patients and the Breast Cancer Services Team at Withybush Hospital say comfort cushions we have purchased have made a big difference to recovery. The 14 heart-shaped cushions promote comfort in the recovery period and patients say they have found them really valuable. Tessa Phillips, Breast Care Clinical Nurse Specialist said: “Patients say that these cushions are a God-send post-surgery. We are pleased to be able to provide this service which is so welcomed by our patients.”

Chemotherapy training

Trainee Macmillan Acute Oncology Nurse Rachel Bran came to the charity for help with her training and we were able to fund a distance learning course on chemotherapy for her. Rachel works within the Acute Oncology Team but also supports the Chemotherapy Day Unit at Bronglais Hospital in Aberystwyth. She has recently undertaken a distance learning module at Newcastle University, focusing

on treatment and the administering of chemotherapy. “I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to take this course in chemotherapy, which will enable me to further strengthen oncology services in Bronglais Hospital in a new role of Trainee Acute Oncology Nurse,” said Rachel.

“There is an amazing team in the Chemotherapy Day Unit and I am happy to be able to support the service there when needed.”

Bladder scanner for Prince Phlip Hospital

Manikins for training at Glangwili Hospital

We have been able to purchase two manikins to support the training of junior obstetricians.

An extra bladder scanner has been purchased for Prince Philip Hospital in Llanelli. This scanner will be used across the hospital, where needed, to help the medical teams with timely, initial diagnoses.

Clinical Lead Nurse Gareth Phillips said: “This is a very important piece of equipment and is highly-valued. It gives quick access to diagnostics to help us provide the best treatment possible.

“We now have a scanner available for all wards, day or night, a 24-hour service provision, thanks to donations from our local communities.”

One manikin supports training on assisted deliveries and helps with training on six different foetal positions. The other manikin focuses on determining the lie of the foetus.

Dr Roopam Goel, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Glangwili Hospital, said: “These manikins are very effective for use in training sessions held within the department.

“They enable lifelike scenarios for teaching purposes and help us to maintain enhanced clinical skills for obstetricians.”

Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Letchuman Shankar said: “Simulations have proved to work well in training our doctors. These manikins will certainly benefit our maternity services.”

Community midwife bags

We have supported the purchase of Community Midwife Bags, so every midwife across

Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire will have their own bag, with all the equipment needed to support birthing mothers and their babies.

Community Midwife Lisa Rose got to experience the benefit of the bag first-hand when she gave birth to

baby, Isaac, at home in Aberystwyth. Supported by her partner Graham and colleagues, Lisa was delighted to be able to give birth at home, including time in a birthing pool.

Lisa said, “As a community midwife I have always found the bag really helpful at every home birth I have attended, and felt reassured knowing midwives attending my birth had this excellent kit with them.”

Our COVID-19 response

As the NHS faced the biggest challenge of its lifetime, we have been overwhelmed by the phenomenal support from our local communities, through our public appeals and grants from NHS Charities Together.

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we launched our Hywel Dda COVID-19 appeal, which raised an amazing £96,000 from those eager to show their support to NHS staff and volunteers. We were also overwhelmed by donations of gifts, including the hundreds of items received through our patient appeal, as well as over 2,000 items to provide care packs for patients unexpectedly admitted to hospital.

This generosity has enabled us to support a wide range of expenditure to make a positive difference to patients, service users and staff.

Items on our Patient Wishlist

Our Patient Wishlist launched at the height of the pandemic to provide essentials for patients when visiting was not possible. Over £20,000 worth of items were donated and distributed to the patients that needed them the most. We provided care packs to help make our patients more comfortable during their stay when they were unable to receive visitors, which included toiletries, eye masks, ear plugs and headphones, and we also supplied nightclothes and other essentials.

New furniture for
staff rest rooms
----- End of picture text -----

NHS staff deserve calming places to take rest breaks in now more than ever.

We are pleased to have been able to fund many new items for staff rest areas.

Purchases for staff rest rooms and outdoor relaxation areas included comfy chairs and tables; electrical items such as microwaves, fridges, kettles and televisions; cutlery and crockery; and picnic tables and benches. Artwork, artificial plants and other decorative items have also been bought to brighten up rest and relaxation areas, indoors and out.

Items for staff rest rooms included new furniture for the staff room in Glangwili Hospital’s Pathology Department. The staff room has been equipped with 10 new easy chairs, two arm chairs, eight cushioned dining chairs and two dining tables.

Catrina Richards, Blood Science Locality Lead for Glangwili Hospital, said it had been a challenging year for the NHS and the new furniture for the Pathology staff room had been a “real brightener”. “To have new furniture in the staff room in the pathology building has made a real difference to staff comfort and wellbeing,” Catrina added. “Staff are very grateful for the support that has enabled this improvement in their staff room surroundings.”

Electronic items and

patient distraction items

Ethnic minorities outreach team

Thanks to a £75,000 grant awarded by NHS Charities Together, we have been able to fund a project which is seeing a team of experienced community workers reach out to ethnic minority people living in

We have been able to buy thousands of items to make life better for hospital patients in Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire during the COVID-19 pandemic. From games, activities, arts and crafts and

welcome packs to gardening items, toys and exercise equipment, we have been able to make a real difference.

We are also pleased to have been able to provide electronic equipment to help our patients keep in touch with their families, along with radios, TVs and DVD players to alleviate boredom during hospital stays and washer-dryers for patients who could not receive clean clothes from relatives.

We worked closely with the health board’s Patient Experience Team to make sure items got to patients that need those most.

Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire to help them during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The three-strong outreach team is engaging with communities that have been adversely affected by Coronavirus and the disproportionate impact that COVID-19 has had on people from minority ethnic communities. The team is led by Stepheni Kays, Community Development Outreach Manager (pictured). The team will be reaching out to the 10,000-plus people from minority ethnic communities living in the three counties which make up the Hywel Dda University Health Board area.

Medical equipment for community care

We purchased a range of medical equipment and devices to facilitate discharge from hospital and to enable patients to be cared for in their own homes, including blood pressure monitors, weighing scales and exercise equipment. We also provided equipment for over 100 midwifes across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, to help with advice for new mums and mums-to-be.

New health and wellbeing programmes for staff

We successfully applied for grant funding of £242,000 from NHS Charities Together for a range of projects to support staff health and wellbeing, both physically and psychologically.

It is more important than ever to give staff permission to rest to enable their recovery and the restoration of their wellbeing.

Projects will include nature-based eco-therapy, a health and wellbeing champion’s network, bereavement support and training, arts in health and wellbeing activities, along with grants for staff to learn a new skill beyond their professional work requirement.

Thank you
card for
staff
----- End of picture text -----

We are pleased to have played a part in helping to send a special keepsake to Hywel Dda NHS staff to thank them for their incredible hard work and support during the most difficult of years. In the autumn of 2020, a thank you card, featuring an image generously donated by Welsh artist Rhiannon Art, was sent to all NHS staff across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, thanks to funding received from NHS Charities Together. It features a bilingual message from Hywel Dda University Health Board Chair Maria Battle and Chief Executive Steve Moore, thanking staff for their strength, compassion and kindness. Staff were told: “Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the sacrifices you have made in working for and supporting your local NHS during this historic and most challenging time.” The health board said it wanted to recognise, thank and support every single member of staff in this way. “We considered this to be more than a piece of communication, but a gift, or keepsake, that our staff could proudly display to their friends and family and keep for many years to come,” said Maria and Steve.

Wellbeing packs for staff
----- End of picture text -----

We provided hundreds of staff wellbeing packs to help with nutrition, hydration and toiletries. Provisions included everyday items such as porridge, tea or hand cream, wash kits and overnight stay kits reusable water bottles and clothing for their immediate needs during the pandemic.

Staff were invited to request the items that would make the biggest difference to support their welfare and wellbeing. That way we were able to prioritise where we could help the most.

Our NHS colleagues told us that these purchases really helped to make a difference and they were grateful for the support and to know they are appreciated.

DadPads for new fathers
across our three counties
----- End of picture text -----

We have been able to purchase special guides for new fathers to help with the best start for families across the Hywel Dda University Health Board area. Staff in the health board’s Perinatal Mental Health Services are using the 38-page, wipe-clean DadPads® to help new dads to develop the necessary mindset and practical skills, help them to gain confidence and give them the tools to provide the best support for baby. With fewer face-to-face clinics and meetings as a result of the pandemic, the DadPads® have been a valued resource.

New dad Shane Earp, pictured with his wife Emma and new baby Brody, said having the DadPad® had been a great support. “Being able to read the DadPad® has made me feel calmer. There is lots of advice. It is really inspiring.”

3. Our supporters

We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of our local communities and the eagerness of our public to fundraise for the NHS in new and innovative ways.

We saw new and unique fundraising ideas from children as young as four to those in their eighties and nineties. Many chose to support us because family and friends are working on the front line or in key services. Others wanted to support the NHS to say thank you.

Sportspeople ran, walked and cycled tens of thousands of miles. Charity videos were released and there were lots of virtual quizzes and head shaves. So many children got involved – cycling, walking, roller-skating and decorating pebbles. Here are some of our fundraisers in 2020-2021:

Vindya Prabhu, Carmarthenshire

----- Start of picture text -----
Rhythwyn Evans,
Ceredigion
----- End of picture text -----

Rhythwyn Evans did 91 laps around his bungalow on his 91st birthday in April 2020 and raised a phenomenal £51,300 for his local NHS charity.

The daughter of a Hywel Dda hospital consultant spent 10 days climbing Snowdon on her stairs to raise money for charity. Vindya Prabhu, aged 14, climbed the two flights of stairs at her home 20 times a day to reach the 3,560-foot summit. Vindya was raising money for Hywel Dda’s Holistic Acute Recovery Programme. HARP supports head and neck cancer patients across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

The cause is close to her heart, because her dad, Vinod Prabhu, is Consultant Head and Neck Surgeon for the health board. Vindya said: “I am stuck at home anyway, so I thought why not be stuck at home and raise money for a good cause!” Dad Vinod said that he, mum Sumitha, and 10-year-old brother Vismith are all very proud of Vindya, who attends St Michael’s School, in Llanelli.

“She’s always been an inspiration to the whole family,” he said. “She is only counting the steps on the way up, not on the way back, making it more of a challenge.

“Before the 10 days were up, we put up a tent in the garden, so Vindya could spend a night sleeping out to get a feel of what the real climb of Snowdon would be like.”

When grandfather-of-eight Rhythwyn embarked on his challenge, he set himself the modest target of £500! But his story captured the heart of communities, locally and as far afield as America and New Zealand, and donations flooded in. The retired farmer, from Silian, near Lampeter, said he was so pleased to have raised such a large amount for the NHS.” I’m lucky I’m in pretty good health, fairly strong and I eat like a horse, so I was able to do the 91 laps around the bungalow without any real problems on my birthday,” Rhythwyn said.

Martin Lewis, Pembrokeshir e

Financial adviser Martin Lewis feels he is lucky to be alive after spending eight weeks in intensive care and four months having rehabilitation in hospital. The 51-year-old, of Pembroke, was rushed into intensive care at Glangwili Hospital with an infection and, after five operations, he finally started his recovery. This involved spending four months in South Pembrokeshire Hospital, as a rehabilitation patient on Sunderland ward.

Martin said: “My illness was caused by an infected wisdom tooth, of all things. I will be eternally grateful to the staff at the Intensive Care Unit in Glangwili and the staff at Sunderland ward.”

After coming home, Martin asked friends for donations instead of birthday gifts, raising £230 for Sunderland ward.

Gwyndaf Lewis, Carmarthenshire

When Gwyndaf Lewis of Efailwen lost his mam to coronavirus in April 2020, at the age of 59, he said it was a shock for the family.

Undeg was well known in the locality. She worked in a local shop and was clerk of the community council, as well as being secretary of the local paper Y Cardi Bach.

The family were so grateful to the intensive care staff at Glangwili Hospital, who Gwyndaf said showed his mam amazing dedication and care. Gwyndaf decided to run 50km in a day to raise money for the ICU. He completed the challenge in five hours and 45 minutes, cheered on by his dad Tudur, who cycled half the distance with him; his brother Rhodri, who also did the 50km, part running and part cycling; and his sister Nia. Originally 26-year-old Gwyndaf set himself a target of raising £500, but that was reached in half an hour! In total he raised £37,000.

Dewi James Butchers, Ceredigion

A third-generation butcher produced a fantastic charity cookbook to raise money for the local NHS. Dafydd Davies, of Dewi James a’i Gwmni in Cardigan, wanted to do something to say thank you to local health workers in the Hywel Dda area. So, after a suggestion from a customer, he put together ‘Chefs in Isolation’, a cookbook featuring family recipes from the butchers’ shop and recipes from chefs at restaurants and cafés supplied with their meat. The first print run of 250 books sold out very quickly.

16

Alfie Chester, Pembrokeshire

What a great effort by six-year-old Alfie Chester, who cycled 60 miles in a month and raised a fantastic £300 for our charity. Alfie, from Milford Haven, said he wanted to say thank you to everyone in the NHS working so hard. So, he decided to cycle 10 miles for each year of his life. He was supported by mum Sarah Eynon and dad Chris Chester, who are both very proud that Alfie wanted to make a difference. Alfie cycled three miles at a time on a pathway near his home.

Alysha Scarrot, Ceredigion

Alysha Scarrott may be only 10 but ran a mile a day for 65 days and raised a fantastic £8,500 for our charity.

Alysha lives with her parents James and Victoria, five-year-old brother James and sister Sienna, aged three, at Clarach Bay Holiday Village, which the family run. In 2020, she pledged to run a mile a day during lockdown and kept it up for over two months. Originally she set herself a target of £1,000, then £2,000 – but Alysha has been such an inspiration that the money has just kept pouring in.

Alysha said: “I wanted to do my best every single day, just like all the doctors, nurses, care workers and all other NHS workers do.” As well as donations, Alysha received lots of cards and messages of support, and people joined in virtually with a fancy dress Whacky Wednesday.

Pendine AFC, Carmarthenshire

What a fantastic achievement by Pendine AFC, whose Road to Euros challenge raised a brilliant £4,141. Team members originally planned to run and cycle 10,000 miles between them in 32 days, to cover the

distance from their ground around all the 12 host cities of the UEFA Euros over the period the tournament should have been played.

They smashed that target in just 18 days but decided to keep going for the whole 32 days – and travelled 16,252 miles in total.

The club more than doubled their original fundraising target of £2,020, with some of the players notching up more than 1,000 miles each. Player secretary Julian Blewitt, 32, said: “We wanted to do our bit to help the local NHS staff who are doing so much in this pandemic.”

----- Start of picture text -----
Eunice O’Hara,
Pembrokeshire
----- End of picture text -----

What an achievement by 79-year-old Eunice O’Hara, who did 100 laps of her street and raised over £2,000.

Eunice, who lives in Fishguard, is a retired Hospital Reserve member and has a number of neighbours who work for the NHS, so she said she knows what a strenuous job it is. She wanted to do something to support them, so decided to do 100 laps of her street where she has lived for 77 years – down the front of the houses and then round the back lane.

Eunice, who has been a volunteer and fundraiser for several charities over 60 years, said: “I wanted to do something to help so decided to do 100 laps on my own around our street. Eunice’s fundraising has even won her an award from the local Round Table.

Niamh McCarthy, Carmarthenshire

What an amazing achievement by eight-year-old Niamh McCarthy, who climbed Everest on her stairs at home and raised a fantastic £3,151. Plucky Niamh of Carmarthen had to do 58,000 steps – the equivalent of 3,871 flights of her stairs.

As if that does not sound hard enough, Niamh only counted when she went upstairs, not downstairs, so it was double the effort!

Melanie Phillips, Pembrokeshire

What an entertaining idea from Pembroke town councillor Melanie Phillips, who wrote a book about her lockdown experiences and raised over £1,000 for the intensive care unit at Withybush Hospital. The retired teacher wanted to keep busy during lockdown, so decided to put pen to paper and write a daily journal of her life.

Her book, called Under House Arrest, catalogues her thoughts and experiences, living through the pandemic with only herself for company.

Dic Evans, Ceredigion

Retired head teacher Richard (Dic) Evans ran a whopping 1,000 miles to raise money for Bronglais Hospital’s Chemotherapy Day Unit after his partner was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. He may be 73, but Dic, who lives in Abermagwr, in the Ystwyth Valley, averaged 10 miles a day to reach his target in 100 days. A keen runner most of his life, Dic has for the last 17 years organised an annual trail race, The Red Kite Challenge, to raise money for Bronglais Hospital. Dic said: “I have seen how much care the staff of the Bronglais Chemotherapy Day Unit give to patients after my partner Liz Hughes was diagnosed with ovarian cancer last summer. They are so good, amazing. I wanted to help them. The running was tough some days. At 73 everything takes longer. But I was determined to finish.”

What a great effort by Bow Street Football Club, who raised £1,750 by going around the world in 70 days - outdoing Phileas Fogg who took 80 days!

Around 60 players, committee members and local supporters from the village just north of Aberystwyth took part in the epic feat, which involved cycling, running and walking the equivalent of the earth’s circumference – a whopping 24,860 miles. A huge age range was involved – from children as young as five up to those in their seventies.

Bow Street FC chairman Wyn Lewis said: “We all admire our frontline NHS workers, especially so during this crisis, so we wanted to do our bit to help. It was a terrific effort and brilliant to see so many local people get involved.”

Look at this fantastic new mural outside the emergency department at Withybush Hospital which has been created thanks to a donation from Llys y Fran Young Farmers’ Club. The mural was painted by Lloyd the Graffiti to brighten up the seating area at the hospital. During lockdown, the young farmers decided to raise money for Withybush and South Pembrokeshire hospitals. As well as funding the mural, they also purchased a new starter kit for patients using the Cleddau River Day Unit at South Pembrokeshire Hospital, and a kettle and toaster for a new staff rest room at Withybush Hospital.

Scarecrow Festival, Carmarthenshire

Wow, what a great tribute to key workers.

Nearly 90 scarecrows popped up in the village of Abergwili, near Carmarthen, to raise money for the local NHS. There were doctors, nurses, carers, shop workers, police, farmers and construction workers. There was even one of Captain Tom Moore and a few of Prime Minister Boris Johnson! Organiser Rachel Moyles said that the village, just outside Carmarthen, wanted to pay tribute to key workers and also to raise money for the intensive care unit at Glangwili Hospital. “It has been a bit of fun and brought some colour to the village, while getting children involved during lockdown,” said Rachel. “We have all been out clapping every week and thought we could lend our support in a different way, to say thank you to all the key workers. “Most of the community has been involved.” Scarecrow Festivals were also held elsewhere in Carmarthenshire, and in Pembrokeshire, as people wanted to pay tribute to the local NHS during the pandemic.

Ron Tapping, Pembrokeshire

Harry Potter actor and entertainer Ron Tapping walked 70km on his 70th birthday to raise money for Withybush Hospital.

Ron, who lives in Milford Haven, walked a circuitous route to Withybush Hospital and back, starting at 2am and with a lateafternoon finish.

He has had an interesting career, starring as a Death Eater in the Harry Potter films and having walk-on roles, including in Half Light with Demi Moore. Ron has also been a singer and musician on cruise ships.

He said he wanted to raise funds for Withybush Hospital because of the great work they do every day. “I’m a fit 69-year-old and wanted to set myself a bit of a challenge,” said Ron, who is also an advanced open water diver. “Celebrating my 70th birthday by walking 70km that day was an amazing achievement for me and made it a birthday to remember!”

Ben Williams, Carmarthenshire

Ben Williams of Llanpumsaint, near Carmarthen, was diagnosed with function neurological disorder in 2020 after collapsing in his kitchen. He has made huge progress after being left initially with little use of his right limbs and is so grateful to the Gwenllian Ward staff, who had “the best positive attitude to recovery you could wish for”.

Ben said: “My life took an unexpected hiccup, which you don’t expect when you are 26 with a small baby and a beautiful wife and your whole life ahead of you.

“At first doctors thought I had had a mini stroke. But scans ruled this out and then FND was diagnosed, for which there is no cure.” Ben decided to raise money for the Stroke Unit to say thank you for the care he received after his shock diagnosis.

Sara Hicks, Pembrokeshire

Cai Jones, Carmarthenshir e

When Cai Jones was diagnosed with a rare disease, he had to undergo a six-hour operation, at the age of just 12.

Cai, of Penygroes, near Cross Hands, was diagnosed with Cholesteatoma, a benign cyst in the ear which only affects one in 10,000 people and can be fatal if left untreated.

The disease was removed and the roof of Cai’s ear drum was replaced with a new one made from his own cartilage. Cai says: “I bought a new headset for my Xbox. I put it to my left ear to hear my friends speak, but I couldn’t hear them.

“I told my dad the headset didn’t work, but dad could hear my friends speaking from halfway across the room.”

Cai was referred to the Ear Nose and Throat Department at Glangwili Hospital and saw ear consultant Dr Anthony Howarth, who is now his “hero”.

To say thank you Cai pledged to walk, run and cycle a total of 130 miles in a month, to raise money for the ENT department.

After being taken very ill in August 2020, with a burst appendix, Sara Hicks of Saundersfoot says she owes her life to the NHS. Sara, 51, an office manager, who lives in Saundersfoot, said: “I dialed 999 in the early hours in excruciating pain. Paramedics soon arrived and off I went to Glangwili Hospital, with them pulling over only to give me some morphine, as I really wasn’t coping well with the potholes! “I was cared for by a team of nurses and doctors who were all so kind and compassionate and I was in surgery by that afternoon, even though it was a Sunday.

“I was in for around a week and experienced quality of care which was second to none, and during a time of COVID challenges. The nurses and doctors were all simply amazing. Support and cherish your NHS. They saved my life and will continue to save many more every day.” Sara decided to raise money to say thank you to the staff at Glangwili Hospital. She asked friends and family to donate money instead of buying her flowers.

Emlyn Evans, Ceredigion

Just before his fourth birthday, Emlyn Evans was very ill and was in Bronglais Hospital, in Aberystwyth, for nearly a week.

He had chicken pox and this progressed to Grade A Strep. Two years later, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Emlyn decided he wanted to raise money for the local NHS after hearing from his mum Louisa about how hard staff in Hywel Dda’s hospitals were working, looking after patients. So the now seven-year-old decided to have his head shaved and raised a fantastic £1,769.

Emlyn’s shave was carried out by Louisa, 39, with support from dad Deiniol, 37, and Emlyn’s five-year-old sister Lois.

Louisa, of Llanrhystud, said: “Although only six, Emlyn really wanted to raise money for the NHS when he realised how much they were doing looking after people with coronavirus.

“It was also a chance for us to thank the staff at Bronglais Hospital for what they did for Emlyn in 2018.”

West Wales Freemasons

The West Wales Freemasons delivered £10,000 worth of goods for patients in our hospitals. Their purchases of much-needed pyjamas, loungewear, dressing gowns and underwear – nearly 1,000 items in total - helped patients at our hospitals across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

Church of Latter Day Saints

A thousand welcome packs were provided for patients in Hywel Dda hospitals. The South West and Mid Wales branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ £3,000-plus donation paid for zipped bags, containing toothpaste, hand cream, hand wipes, and roll-on deodorant. Hywel Dda Health Charities topped the bags up with toothbrushes, combs, ear plugs, ear phones, lip salves and eye masks.

Barclays

Barclays donated 20 iPads for use by NHS hospital patients and staff. The tablets have enabled patients to keep in touch with family, while receiving visitors was restricted. The iPads have also aided communication in outpatient

appointments where family members are unable to attend to support, and helped with the delivery of virtual groups within mental health and learning disabilities services. In addition, the iPads have been used to deliver virtual support to patients with long-term or chronic conditions.

Artists Amanda, Kate, Si â n and Sarah

This fantastic artwork was donated to Withybush Hospital. The pieces are the work of four artists - Amanda Blake, Kate Kekwick, Siân Lester and Sarah Poland (pictured) – who wanted to say thank you to the hospital for all its work.

The framed, abstract works on paper of local flora and fauna are hanging in staff areas in the hospital.

Fundraising by our NHS staff

Maria Davies

Running 60 miles each for our 60 in September event in 2020 was the challenge taken on by Maria Davies and her husband Adrian of Haverfordwest. Maria works in the Patient Experience Team at Withybush Hospital and Adrian is a work coach at Pembroke Dock Job Centre. Maria, 33, said she enjoyed her job, helping patients to stay connected with their families, while they are in hospital. She said working for the team has made her realise how even a small donation can help so much in improving the care and wellbeing of patients, especially those who do not have immediate relatives to get them essential items while they are in hospital. “My intention in the 60 in September challenge is to raise some money to pay for comfort packs and basic toiletries for our patients who don’t have access to them,” Maria said. Both Maria and Adrian, 52, have done some running before, but wanted to push themselves by running further.

Trio of lung cancer doctors
----- End of picture text -----

A trio of lung cancer doctors cycled over 200 miles to raise funds and to raise awareness of the illness and its symptoms.

They passed all 11 hospitals and health centres in the Hywel Dda area in one day on 25 July 2020 – starting at Prince Philip, then Amman Valley, Llandovery, Tregaron, Bronglais, Aberaeron, Cardigan, Withybush, South Pembrokeshire, Tenby and finally Glangwili.

For the three lung consultants – Dr Gareth Collier MBE, Dr Mark Andrews and Dr Jonathan Fisher-Black (pictured in 2019) - there was an ascent of 17,500 feet to overcome, the same as climbing to base camp Everest! Dr Collier said: “Our aim was to increase awareness of the symptoms of lung cancer, stress the importance of going to see your GP if you think you have symptoms, and raise money for equipment to aid the early diagnosis of lung cancer in the Hywel Dda area.”

Donna Reed Donna Reed from Pembroke Dock has raised over £1,550 in a sponsored challenge with her husband Edd, having been inspired by the support their young niece received as a baby at Glangwili Hospital’s Special Care Baby Unit. Donna works in the Communications Team at Hywel Dda University Health Board and wanted to do her bit to say thanks to everyone who nursed Layla and supported the family for several weeks when she arrived very early in 2012.

Fundraising by our NHS staff

Jamie Evans

Radiographer and lecturer Jamie Evans cycled 100 miles in a day on his turbo trainer in memory of his mum.

Jamie, 36, complete the challenge in six hours to raise money for the Chemotherapy Day Unit at Glangwili Hospital in Carmarthen and also for the X-ray departments in Glangwili and Prince Philip hospitals, where he trains students.

The dad-of-one from Bronwydd, Carmarthen had been in training for the Carten 100 cycling event, but when that was postponed because of COVID-19, he decided to do a charity event instead. Jamie cycled on his drive, cheered on by his wife Maria, who works in recruitment for Hywel Dda. And he built a wooden stand, so that four-year-old son Archie could pedal alongside him during the feat. Jamie took on the challenge in memory of his mum Gillian, who lost her battle with cancer in December 2017, at the age of 75. Jamie said: “During her treatment mum had multiple sessions of chemotherapy at Glangwili. The unit and its staff are simply outstanding.”

Staff Christmas Jumper Day

Health Board staff got into the spirit with our Christmas Jumper Day and helped us to raise money for mental health patients across our three counties. It was wonderful to see the creative efforts and socially distanced photos. They made us smile and raised a fantastic amount to help bring Christmas cheer to mental health patients this year, with the purchase of resources, crafts, and other goodies.

Pembrokeshire student nurses

What a lovely gesture by eight student nurses, who raised money to pay for iPads so patients at South Pembrokeshire Hospital could keep in touch with loved ones while they were unable to receive visitors. The nursing team - Ruth Morgan, Anna Griffiths, Chloe Thomas, Aneesah

Tamlin, Shanice Riley, Dominika Szwab, Lisa Prest and Shannon John – launched a JustGiving page and also organised a Christmas raffle. Ruth who, along with Anna, is based at South Pembrokeshire Hospital, said they really wanted to help patients speak to family and friends when it was not possible to receive visitors.

“Most of the patients at South Pembrokeshire Hospital are there for rehabilitation, so are in hospital for quite some time,” 40-year-old Ruth, who lives in Pembroke, said.

5.Our plans

The next year will be a crucial time for the charity as we move forward from an extraordinary year having received such unprecedented support from our local communities to say thank you to the NHS when it faced one of the biggest challenges of our lifetime.

We will use what we have learnt from our experiences of the past year to inform our future grant-making priorities to make things even better for our patients, communities and staff.

A priority will be to support staff health and wellbeing. We will work closely with Workforce and Organisational Development colleagues to identify ways that the charity can support the rest, recovery and rehabilitation of Hywel Dda University Health Board staff, focusing on the areas of greatest need.

The next year will also involve the charity reviewing the impact of the pandemic on our income to ensure that we are able to focus our fundraising efforts on areas that will have the most impact.

We will also continue to focus on the objectives of our three-year plan, approved by the Charitable Funds Committee in March 2020, which provide a clear direction for the charity so that we can continue to make a positive difference to the health, wellbeing and experience of patients, service users and staff across Hywel Dda University Health Board:

Income: Increase our income levels by 10% on an annual basis from April 2020 to March 2023

Expenditure: Communications: Increase charitable Increase our charity’s expenditure by 15% profile and raise on an annual basis awareness of the from April 2020 to positive difference March 2023 we make

The charity is extremely grateful for all donations received to help us realise our aims. Some donations were received in memory of a loved one and we are proud to know that the treatment and support received has been so valued.

Investment income (£327,381)

Expenditure

The charity is principally a grant making body, providing grants to Hywel Dda University Health Board as a contribution to the cost of the provision of healthcare beyond what the NHS

provides. During 2020/21 the charity has continued to support a wide range of charitable and health related activities across Hywel Dda University Health Board.

Our key aim is to serve the NHS patients of Hywel Dda University Health Board for the public benefit. By working closely with the University Health Board, we are able to use our generous donations to provide invaluable support on patient focused expenditure.

Our grant making policy ensures that all expenditure of our charitable funds is in accordance with the charitable purpose agreed for the fund and in the spirit of the donor’s wishes. All charitable expenditure is made with consideration given to the public benefit of improved healthcare.

Analysis of expenditure

In 2020/21 expenditure on charitable activities totalled £1,037,086. The expenditure categories were as follows:

28

Management and administration costs: 1st April 2020

The total management and administration costs for 2020-21 were £320,778 which includes £220,785 fundraising costs and £99,993 support costs. This represents 4.1% of the opening fund balances held as at 1st April 2020.

Investments and performance

The charity retains the services of investment advisors to manage its investment portfolios. Policy is set by the charity trustee in its instruction to their advisor. The advisors have been instructed to manage the portfolios to produce both income and capital returns, and manage those funds within the value they retain on the accounts. The charity also holds funds in short term investments that are not managed by the investment advisor.

During 2020-21, there was realised gain of £1,480,000 due to an increase in the market value of investments held during the year. This combined with investment income of £327,381 gave a total in year gain of 17.28% for investments held by the charity.

Sarasin & Partners LLP provided the services of investment advisor for 2020-21. These investments are managed in accordance with the Trustee Act 2000.

The Charity Trustee has challenged its investment advisers to demonstrate that the decisions they make on behalf of the Charity are aligned with its ethical policy. Sarasin has provided examples of how they use Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria to measure the sustainable and ethical impact of businesses when making investments on behalf of the Charity. These include –

29

Overall financial position: 31st March 2021

The value of the charity as at 31st March 2021 has increased from the previous year by £2,686,000. This is largely due to growth in investments in year for both General & Cardiology Fund.

Furthermore, cash balances held at year-end were higher than normal due to higher than average donations & grants received during latter part of year.

The graph below indicates the level of funds held as at the end of the year in the last five financial years:

Fund Balances 2016-17 - 2020-21

Reserves policy

The charity has a reserves policy and has defined reserves to be the element of funds that are unrestricted and uncommitted. The charity shall hold reserves of 10% of the value of its fixed asset investments and £500,000, and shall only fall below to cover losses in value of those investments. In order to maintain the reserves as low as possible it is important that expenditure plans are developed for all funds. Reserves are needed where there may be insufficient balances in individual restricted and designated funds to meet the objectives of those funds. There is also a need for reserves where there may be a requirement to incur expenditure which is exclusively charitable, and cannot be funded from revenue, for which there is not a relevant fund. The reserves held by the charity, as at 31st March 2021, is made up as follows:

The charitable funds linked to the University Health Board are independent of the ‘exchequer’ (Government funded NHS) funds of the University Health Board and must be managed separately, even though they are mainly to be used to support the work and services of the NHS body.

32

The Charity Commission has regulatory responsibility for ensuring the proper management of these charitable funds.

The Charitable Funds Committee is appointed by the Board from the Independent Members who act as ‘agents’ of the Board as sole corporate trustee. The Committee is required to:

Objects of the charity

Hywel Dda Health Charities has registered the following objects with the Charity Commission:

“The trustee shall hold the trust fund upon trust to apply the income, and at its discretion, so far as may be permissible, the capital, for all or any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Service.”

Charity independence

The charity needs to be independent from, yet supportive of, the University Health Board. The charity therefore focuses on the following charitable purposes, recognised in law (Charities Act 2011):

And to a lesser degree

The charity raises monies, holds those monies and commits expenditure through more than 275 local, general and special purpose funds.

The current list of these funds is given at appendix A. Whilst almost all funds are designated for a particular purpose (as described by the donor’s wishes and the local funds title); some funds are restricted by the charitable purpose imposed by the donor.

Within expenditure authorisation limits local fund holders decide on and commit expenditure for the benefit of the area concerned.

33

Grant making policy

To achieve its objectives the charity makes grant payments to Hywel Dda University Health Board in accordance with charity law, our constitution and the wishes and direction of donors.

In making grants, we endeavour to reflect the wishes of patients and staff by directing funds towards areas they tell us are most in need.

Hywel Dda Health Charities makes grants from both its unrestricted and restricted funds. Within the unrestricted funds, grants are made from general funds, designated (earmarked) funds. Income generated from endowment funds are held as restricted income and applied within the restricted purpose of that endowment.

In the awarding of our grants, consideration is given to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. To ensure public benefit and value for money when authorising charitable

expenditure, applications for charitable funds include questions on the purpose of the

application to the charity, why the expenditure is required and how the expenditure meets the aims of the charity.

Subsidiary charity

There is one special purpose subsidiary charity within the Hywel Dda Health Charities – Cardiology Equipment Withybush General Hospital.

Address

The principal address of the charity is Hywel Dda Health Charities, Ystwyth, Hafan Derwen, St David’s Park, Jobswell Road, Carmarthen, SA31 3BB.

Our advisors

Bankers

The charity has retained the banking services during the year from Barclays Bank, 9-10 Guildhall Square, Carmarthen, SA31 1PW.

External auditors

The charity’s auditors during the year was Audit Wales, 24 Cathedral Road, Cardiff, CF11 9LJ.

Our trustees

New members of the Charitable Funds Committee are provided with an induction pack consisting of the charity’s governing documents and policies and procedures as well as previous annual reports and accounts and Charity Commission guidance.

Members of the Charitable Funds Committee also receive regular informal training and briefings on current charity issues at quarterly committee meetings. As the charity is a member of the Association of NHS Charities, committee members also receive regular briefings on areas of interest and details of relevant training opportunities to enhance their skills.

34

Investments

The trustees hold the Pembrokeshire Cardiology Equipment fund as a separate investment portfolio, which is managed with the advice of Sarasin & Partners with an objective of the fund to achieve long-term capital and income growth.

The trustees have approved a total returns policy for this fund. Income is credited back to the charity bank account and held as restricted income.

Other investments of Hywel Dda Health Charities are also managed with the advice of Sarasin & Partners with an objective of the fund to achieve long-term capital and income growth. Both portfolios are structured to permit a range of investments intended to yield a competitive rate of return in current market conditions.

The investment advisor actively manages the assets and has delegated authority to purchase and sell when market opportunities arise. The trustees have decided not to invest in companies who are involved in the production of tobacco and will also avoid investment in companies that have more than 10% of their turnover in Alcohol manufacture due to the link with poor health which could make the investments contrary to our charitable aims.

The Charitable Fund Committee on a quarterly basis monitors investment performance.

Fundraising activities

During 2020/21, the University Health Board employed four members of staff (4.4 full time equivalent) to support the fundraising and communications functions of the charity.

The fundraising support team is responsible for increasing the charity’s income to support Hywel Dda University Health Board to provide services and activities above and beyond what the NHS can provide.

The team is responsible for promoting fundraising for and giving to the charity and provides support, advice and guidance to fundraisers to ensure that all fundraising is carried out in line with regulation and best practice.

The team also assists many charitable groups and associations that provide both financial and non-financial support for healthcare services across our three counties.

35

8.Risk management

Exposure to risk

The Chief Executive of Hywel Dda University Local Health Board, together with the other directors, is responsible for ensuring that an effective system of financial control is maintained. The Chief Executive and other directors are also responsible for reviewing the effectiveness of this system and have confirmed that the minimum control standards laid down by the Welsh Government have been in existence throughout the financial year. The minimum control standards apply equally to the management of the charity by officers of the University Local Health Board as to the exchequer funds of the University Local Health Board. In this way, the major risks to which the charity is exposed have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.

Financial control

A financial procedure, expenditure guideline, governance framework and strategy have been developed to ensure that there are sufficient management controls in place to:

Investment risk

The risk is minimised by agreeing an investment policy with the nominated investment managers. This policy includes ethical consideration where investments in the production, manufacturing or supply of tobacco or alcoholic beverages conflict with the charitable objects.

In assessing companies’ involvement in these sectors the following limits have been set:

Further to the above, the investment manager’s performance is reviewed in each Charitable Fund Committee meeting and compared to charitable investment benchmarks.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES IN RESPECT OF THE ACCOUNTS

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustee(s) to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Corporate Trustee should follow best practice and:

The Corporate Trustee is responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy financial position of the charity and which enable them to ascertain the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the trust deed. The Corporate Trustee is 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 independent auditor’s report of the Auditor General for Wales to the members of Hywel Dda Health Charities

Opinion on financial statements

I have audited the financial statements of Hywel Dda Health Charities for the year ended 31 March 2021 under the. Charities Act 2011. These comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and related notes, 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 Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In my opinion the financial statements:

Basis of opinion

I conducted my audit in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing in the UK (ISAs (UK)) and Practice Note 10 ‘Audit of Financial Statements of Public Sector Entities in the United Kingdom’. My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of my report. I am independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to my audit of the financial statements in the UK including the Financial Reporting Council’s Ethical Standard, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

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

Based on the work I have performed, I have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the body’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

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

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and my auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in my report, I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. My responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If I identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, I am required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, I am required to report that fact.

I have nothing to report in this regard.

62

Report on other requirements

Matters on which I report by exception

I have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require me to report to you if, in my opinion:

Responsibilities

Responsibilities of the trustees for the financial statements

As explained more fully in the statement of trustee’s responsibilities set out on page 61 the trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, 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 charity’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 deemed inappropriate.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

I have been appointed as auditor under 150 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

My 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 my 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. I design procedures in line with my responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

My procedures included the following:

63

In addition to the above, my procedures to respond to identified risks included the following:

I also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all audit team and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

The extent to which my procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is affected by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the controls of Hywel Dda Health Charities, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed.

A further description of the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of my auditor’s report.
