VOLUNTEER SUPPORT AT ST JOHN'S HOSPICE
The Charity is heavily dependent on, and very thankful for, the support il receives
from volunteers, who work lo support the operation of the Hospice in a wide
variety of ways, from helping lo provide direct care, supporting income
generation by fundraising or working in the charity shops, serving as Trustees,
or in a host of other capacities. Sadly. due lo the pandemi¢ the involvement of
volunteers at the Hospice has been severely curtailed as we h8ve limited footfall
lo the Hospice lo minimise the risk of spreading Covid-fj9. In addition, with non-
essential retail closed for many months we have not needed as much volunteer
support in our ¢harily shops either.
Compared with 202012021 when we received the support of almost 114.000
volunteer hours, this year il was closer lo 28,000 hours. This would suggest an
economic value of some £361k lo the Charity when calculated using the average
staff cost of the department in which the volunteer works compared lo £1.34m
last year. This is over and above the warmth and spirit of community that the
volunteers generate.
There are many more informal volunteers who help out with numerous fundraising and publicity events. The
value of this support is incalculable bul could easily double the calculated value of the input of the more formal
volunteers.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES INCLUDING PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Charities Act 2011 requires ¢harilies to report on the public benefit of their activities. The Trustees have had
regard lo the Charity Commission's guidance on publi¢ benefit and believe that an appreciation of the Charity's
public benefit can be obtained from the following review of ils achievements and performance.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE 202012021
During the year we updated the Strategic Plan for 2020-2023. Our Vision & Strategy for 2020-2023 was the result
of conversations with our community, health and social care partners and volunteers and staff at the Hospice. 11
was clear from these conversations that Hospice care in our community Is valued, il is also clear that the price of
providing increasingly costly services lo more and more people is simply unsustainable in the long-lerm and Ihal
the challenges we fa￿ require a courageous response.
We believe that a successful future for Sl John's demands a balance be￿￿een stability and agility. Stability comes
from the ethos of hospice care- what we are known for and the things wewill not compromise such as excellence,
compassion and dignity. However, we musl also have the agility lo respond lo new opportunities in an innovative
and progressive way, actively seeking out partnerships, trying out new ideas and being creative and compelling
with our fundraising and Communication messages.

TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT ICONTINUEDI
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Strategic Plan has been updated during a year when we have had lo respond to the Covid-19 pandemic
however al the heart of the plan is for the Hospice to continue to provide for the needs of thos¢ fa¢ing life limiting
illnesses in the locality.
The Vision and Slralegy also identified the following six priorities in support of that mission.
Develop and deliver high quality end of lil& ¢are services with the professional competence and unique
ethos that make us oulslanding
Proactively seek opportunities for collaborative working where appropriate
Be an employer and volunteer base of choice
Develop innovative, ethical and sustainable levels of resource lo meet the seTvice needs of our community
Ensure Sl John's is the charity of Choice for our local community
Ensure Sl John's is the end of life charity of choice for providers.
This year we have faced unparalleled challenges as we adapted daily lo the challenges of Covid-19.
Social distancing reslriclions meant that we had lo limit the number ol patients accessing our inpalienl unil. Many
patients who stayed with us presented with complex holistic mulli-fa¢eled issues and with a variety of different
medical, emotional and psychological needs and complexities.
Whilst we have continued lo allow visitors lo the inpalienl
unil we have been required lo limit the number of visitors, It
Is not therefore surprising that many of our ptspulalion have
SOU9hl to be supported lo die al home. This has meant that
our Hospice al Home team and our Clinical Nurse Specialist
team have received additional referrals.
Sadly, social distancing meant that we had lo close our Day
Hospice as il was not safe lo bring vulnerable patients
together at the Hospice. Day Hospice staff were redeployed
to provide a much needed Respite service lo our Hospice at
Home patients.
The pandemic has highlighted the need to adapt our way of
working and we are looking al how we Iransftsm our digital
capability and capacity so we can operate in a more agile
way, not only in terms of clinical Gare bul also in the way we
raise funds.
To support the delivery of the 7 strategic prK>rilies, we are
required each year lo produce a Quality Account outlining
three key areas for improvement in the coming year. These
have been developed in conjunction with feedback from our
VOICE group. TheVOICE groLJP is made up of patients, family
members and volunteers, all of whom have had recent
èxperience of Hospice services.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 NIARCH 2021
The three key priorities foT improvement were".
Priority 1- Develop a famlly-centred bereavement seNice
ResearGh undertaken in partnership with Lan¢aslèr UnNersily idenlified a gap in the provision of bereavement
support lor children and young people with a particulai emphasis on whole family support. We have been gifted
a donation specifically to build a dedicated family support ￿ntre on our extsling sile, Work on the building has
now been started and we have designated reserves to meet any shortfall.
Priority 2- Pilot the FAB (Fatigue, Anxi8ty & Breathle55ne55) programme in Prisons
We had secured grant funding to enable the Hospice lo work in partNe￿hIp with HM Prison servi￿ to provide a
'Faligue, Anxiety and Breathlessness, IFABI course for inmates al HMP Lancaster Farms. The Gourse was for
people with a diagnosis of COPD or other progresswe lung disease affecting quality of bre8thing.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have had lo postpone any work on this project.
Prlorlty 3- Implemant the findings frorn the 2019120 community consultation
During July - December 2019 an ¥ngagemenl project took place lo consider how commuiiily based sèrv￿￿$
could work differently lo shape a serviGe that meets increased future demand. The pandemic proved lo be a
calalysl for working quite differently in the community and, whilst the findings of the community consullalion will
in part influence the way services are slruclured in the future. our learning from the pandemic will also form part
of this review. This is an on-going project.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
When we sel the budget lor the current financial year we were very aware of the dffticullies in trying lo quantify
the effect the pandemic would have on Ihe finances ot the ktospice. Whilst wg fully appreciate that the TrL¢sleès'
have the ongoing objective of rullning balanced budgets year on year, we racognised that th￿S was a year we
would need to draw on our reserves lo fund anticipated shortfalls in income. This meant that we budgeted lo make
a delicil of £403,840.
When we set the budget, we knew that the National Health Service England INHSEI had awarded some fund1ng
lo allow the Hospice to make available bed capacity and community support from April 2020 to July 2020 10
provide stjpport lo people with complex needs in the cont&xt of the COVID-19 situation. This was factored into
the budget. NHSE did however continue their support as hospi￿$ nalionally provided bed capacity and
community support fiom Novembar 2020 to March 2021 for the same purpose.
When we set the budget neither did we anlicipale just how much our eommunily would gel behind u8 nor how
much other Central and Local Government funding would be forthcoming.
As a result of this unprecedented support we h8ve recorded consolidated nel income of £1,491,121 belore
investment gains and £2,130,995 post investment gains.
Sel out below is an anatysis of the main sources ol charity income.

work and a further £700.722 to fund specific project inilialives. In addition, NHSE supported us with £1.48m ol
bed capacity monies whilst as a group we also received just over £428,000 of furlough monies. Our subsidiary
selling second hand 9oods on the High Street also received £113,000 of Local Authority Grants. The remaining
£3,044,003 was generated from our loyal supporters, spe¢ifi¢ funding inilialives and our inveslmenls.

ofwhich 840/0 was spent on staffing ¢osls. The remaining £1,223,596 has been spent on raising funds.
Consolidated nel income for the year was £1,491,121 pre investment gains and £2.130,995 post investment
gains. Our investment portfolio benefited from the rally in the stock and financial markets around the world with
gains of £639,874 of which £137,668 have been realised.
Full details of the Charity's financial position and of ils income and expenditure are sel out in the Slalemenls of
Financial Activities. Balance Sheets and relaled notes which form part of these financial slatemenls.
The conlinue¢J uncertainty around the pandemic and the Government's response lo the easing of lockdown has
meant that selling a budget for 202112022 has also been challenging. Funding remains uncertain and this has
been reflected in the delicil budget that has been sel of £355,130 for the year which includes £80,000 of
¢ompelling projects but excludes the extraordinary funding for the Forget Me Not Cenlre. The Trustees are
commilled lo using reserves lo fund this deficit and the Senior Management Team is working closely with the
Board lo generale new funding streams and manage costs in line with anli¢ipaled future revenues.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees consider and assess on an on-going basis the major risks lo which the Charity may be exposed. All
risks identified are sel out and monitored using the Gorporale risk register. Systems are in place lo miligale those
risks. Where they are financial il is believed that the reserves policy and financial ¢onlrols minimise the potential
risks. In non-financial mallers there are reviews, appraisals and regulatory pro¢edures in place.
By far the biggest risk to the Hospice has been the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. We remain a Covid-19
Secure Organisalion. As a result, a complete risk management strategy was developed and implemented. This
strategy comprised..
The eslablishmenl of a Covid-19 Risk Assessment process which has been shared with our colleagues
The convening of additional Senior Management Team meetings
The escalation of sub-commillee to full Board meetings
Taking measures lo reduce the financial impact on the Hospice by furloughing non-essential staff and
suspending non-essential services
Taking advantage of additional Government funding where available
Increasing the review of the Corporate Risk Register
Selling up regular staff biielings lo include and support furloughed and non-furloughed staff
Supporting staff lo be able lo work al horne by investing in technology

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The pandemic has not stopped the Board ofTruslees making plans forthe Hospice's future. In the past 12 months.
Trustees have conducted a skills gap analysis of the Board and recruited new Trustees with relevant skills and
knowledge that will support our strategic aims. Our three strategic projects for the current year are..
The Development of the Forget Me Not Centre
As mentioned previously, thanks to a significant donation from a major donor, in De¢ember 2021 w& are planning
lo open our new family and children bereavement centre in the last month of our 35th anniversary year. Research
conducted with Lancaster University will underpin the structure of the service which seeks lo support whole
families pre and post bereavement.

Dlgltal Transformation
During 202012021. the seNices of a Digital Consultant were employed lo develop a strategy and work plan for the
Hospice. Again, Covid-19 has proved lo play a significant role in affecting the pa¢e of this work. 11 is fair lo say
that, in the past year, our digital Iransformalion journey has progressed at speed bul Ihare is still more to do.
Digital transformation remains a strategic priority in the year ahead.
One Hospice- Bringing our team back togethèr post-Covid-19
The past year has seen our close-knil team forced to work separately in "bubbles" due lo Covid reslTi¢lions. The
Board are keen for the SMT lo bling teams back together quickly and effectively once final restrictions are lifted.
We are hopeful that this work can begin in early July when the Trustees and senior management host an afternoon
lea of thanks for the whole team. Beyond this dale, a series of health and well-being inilialives are planned such
as a day of Health checks and health MOTS, a focus on team ¢onlinuous professional development and a
Christmas °Ihank you" event.

a policy of retaining unallocaled free resetves lo cover up to one yeaff s full operaling costs. Based on the Budget
ftir 202112022 this amounts lo £5m.
Unallocaled free reserves at 31 Mar¢h 2021 amounted to £8.137,035 whi¢h represents 19 months full opeialing

we have not received all the Information 8nd explanations we require foT our audit.
Rèsponslbllitles of Trustaes
As explained more fully in the Trusle8s' responsibilities statement, sel OL6t on page 18. the Trustees are

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 WIRCH 2021
Irregularities, including fraud, are inslantes of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures
in line with our responsibilities. outlined above, lo dete¢l malerial misslalemenls in respect of irregularities,
including fraud. The exlenl to which our procedures are capable of delecling irregularilios. InGluding fraud is
detailed below..
Enqviries with the board about any known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and
regLJlalions, including fraud.,
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by the board in Ih8ir significant accounting estimates, in
particular in relation lo piovisions and future perfo¥mance ol the company in light of the impact of Covid-
19.,
An evaluation of the risk of managemenl ovèrride of controls and subsequent testing, including through
testing journal entries and other adjuslmenls for appropriateness., 2nd
An evaluation of the charity's inlemal control environment.
Because of the industry in which the charily operates, we identified the following areas as those most likely lo
have a material impact on the financial slalemenls.. Compliance wtth the Care Quality Commission requirements,
Health and Safety, compliance with Gambling Commission ¥ul@s, in particular holding the relevant lottery licen￿.,
employment law, and compltance with the UK Charities Act.
BeGause of the inherent limilaliDns of an audit. there is a risk that we will not delecl all irregularities, including
those leading lo a material misslalement in the financial slalemenls 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 slalemenls, as we will be less likely lo become aware of instances of non-¢OMpliance. The risk is
also greater regarding irregularities occurring due lo fTaud rather than e¥ror, as fraud involves intentional
con¢ealmenl, forgery. collusion, omission or misrepresenlaliork.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS IUKI, we &xercise professional judgment and maintain professional
sceplicism IhToughoul the audit. We also..
Identify and asstsss th& risks of material misst8lsm@nl of the financial stalemenls, whether due to fraLFd
or error, design and perform audit procedures iesponsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that
is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Thè risk of not detecting a malerral
misslatemenl resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud m2y involve
collusion, forgery, inténtional omissions, misrepre5enlalions. or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant lo the audit in order lo design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, bul not forthe purpose of expressing an opiniDn on the effectiveness
of the group's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting wlicies used and the reasonablgness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the Trustees.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Trustees, use of the going concem basis of accounting and,
based on the audTt eviden¢& obtained, whether a material uncertainly exists related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubl on the group's or Charity's ability to continue as a going
¢oncern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw atlenlion in our
auditorfs report lo the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequal8, lo modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the
dale of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the group or parent Charity
lo cease to continue as a going concern.

Going concern
Prior lo the approval of Ihtrse a¢¢ounls there ha5 been a reduction in the measures taken within society lo
mbal the Covid-19 panden)i¢. However, the Hospice still continues lo adhere to Public Health Guidance
in relation lo Covid-19 measures and is reducing measures more slowly. The Trustees believe that no
material uncertainties exist and have prepared the financial slalemenls on a going concern basis. The
Trustees have Considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 19
months from aulhorising these financial slalemenls. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with
the level of reserves for the Charity to be able lo continue as a going COn￿rn.
Financial instruments
The Charity has elected lo apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financi81 Instruments. and Section 12
'Olher Financial Instruments Issues, of FRS 102 to all of ils financial instruments.
Financial inslrumenls are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when Ihe Charity becomes party lo
contractual provisions of the inslrumenl.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the nel amounts presented in the financial slatemenls, when
there is a legally enforceable right lo offset the recognised amounts and there is an inlenlion to settle on a
nel basis or lo realise the asset and sellle the liability simullaneoLJsIy.
Basic financial assgls
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measLJred al
transaction pri￿ including transaction costs and are subsequently carried al amortised ¢ost using the
effective interest method unless the arrangement ¢onslilules a financing Iransa¢lion, where the transaction
is measured al the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial
assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Impainnenl of financial assels
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment al each reporting end dale.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events Ihal
owurfed afterthe initial recognition of the financial asset, the eslimaled future cash flows have been affected.
If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present
value of the estimated cash flows discounted al the asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment
loss is recognised in the slalemenl of comprehensive income.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event o¢¢urring after the impairment was
recognised, the impairment is reversed, The reversal is such that the Current carrying amount does not
exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previous￿ been recognised. The
impairment reversal is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
De-￿cognItIon of financial assels
Financial assets are de-recognised only when the ¢onlraclual rights lo the cash flows from the asset expire
or are settled, or when the Charity transfers the financi81 asset and subslanlially all the risks and rewards of
ownership lo another entity, or if some significant risks alld rewards of ownership are retained bul control of
the asset has transferred lo another party that is able lo sell the asset in ils entirely to an unrelated third
party.

Pension schemes
Tho HospKe operates two pension SGhemes-.
al A defined contribution group personal pension Scheme. Contributions lo the scheme are Charged
in the Slalement of Financial Activities when payable.
bl For certain eligible employees a defined benefit pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are
held separalew by the National Health Setvice Superannuation Schem8. Contributions are
charged in the Slalemenl of Financia1 Activities as they become payable. Thls pension scheme
does not have a real pension fund bLs1. as a slalulory scheme, benefits aTe fully guaranteed by the
Govèrnment. Contributions from both members and employers are paid lo the Exchequer which
meets the Cost of increasing benelils each year by the rale of inllalion. This extra cost is not mel
by contributions from scheme members and employers. As a result of the nalure of the pension
scheme there are no separately identifiable assets and liabilities which can be identified as relating
to Sl John's Hospi￿, therefore as permitted by FRS 102, the scheme has been accounted for as
a defined ¢onlribuliDn s¢heme.
