Organisation Winchester Radio is a Charitsble Incorporated Organi5ation registered in England and Wales on 4th March 2015 and governed by a constitution signed on 26tn November 2014. It merged with Winchester Hospitals Radio {WHR) in December 2015, and took over the provision of the hospital radio service at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester. On 24th March 2019, the charity launched its new health and wellbeing community radio service, specifically for older people living in and around the Winchester area, broadcasting on 94.7FM, and online via its website. the UK Radioplayer app, and a "skill" enabling listeners to ask "Alexa" to "play Winchester Radio" From the beginning of October 2022, the service has also been available on DAB Digital Radio via the Winchester Srnall-scale DAB network, providing coverage to a somewhat larger area around Winchester, including Alresford, and increasing our total potential broadcast audience to approximately 77, 000 people. Winchester Radio is managed by the Charity Trustees. the majority of whom are elected by the membership. New Trustees receive a Trustee pack, which includes Charity Cornrnission guidance on their role and responsibilities. and induction training during their first 6 rnonths in office. Throughout the year, Winchester Radio continued to operate wlth almost no pald staff, being run by a membership of volunteers. Winchester Radio has always benefited from having a diverse and intergenerational team of volunteers - during 2022, the service was delivered by a team of around 25 volunteers, ranging in age from 20 to 83. Charitable Objects Winchester Radio has two objerts: "the relief of sickness, poor health and old age amongst people living in the area served by the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust or its successors by providing a local broadcasting service for hospitals, residential homes and similar institutions, and for patients receiving cornmunity care. and "the advancement of health and prevention or relief of sickness for the public benefit through the promotion of the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle, and the importance of maintaining good personal mental and physical health by {mainly, but not exclusively) the means of broadcasting health education messages to people living in the area served by the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust or its successors. These objects are based on the model wording agreed between the Hospitsl Broadcasting Association {HBAI and the Charity Commission. Winchester Radio provides a hospital radio service to patients at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital (RHCH) via the bedside entertainment system in furtherance of the first objett. Page 2
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio It is in furtherance of the second object that Winchester Radio has launched Its community radio service for the local population outside the hospital (primarily those aged over 501, with the intent of helping and encouraging them to live a healthy and artive life in the local community, and thus requiring them to make less use of the health services. Related Organisations Winchester Radio is proud to be a member of a number of support organisations for the voluntary sertor, and wish to extend our thanks and appreciation to them for the information and training they offer throughout the year. Winchester Radio is a member of the Hospital Broadcasting Association (HBAI, the national charity that supports and promotes hospital, health and wellbeing broadcasting in the UK- the Community Media Association (CMAI, the organisation which supports and advocates for community media, and the UK Community Radio Network {UKCRN). which supports and advocates specifically for Ofcom-licensed community radio stations. Our members regularly participate in the national conferences and training events organised by the HBA, CMA, and UKCRN. Winchester Radio is also a member of the National Council for Voluntary Organisations I NCVOI. Winchester Radio was also proud to be a member of the Small Charities Coalition an organisation that did much to champion and support small charities and provide high quality training opportunities - but which closed in Spring 2022. Throughout the period of this report Winchester Radio was also a member of the Foundation for Social Improvement I FSII, but that national support charity for small charities also closed in 2023. It is tragic that two such excellent organisations, that championed and supported so well small charities, have now ceased operations as they did not receive enough funding support to continue. We are very grateful to both for the invaluable training and expertise. along with the passion they shared for the significant contributions that small grassroots charities make in the world - be it in response to need in their local community or further afield. Locally, Winchester Radio is a member of Cornmunity First, one of the local Councils for Voluntary Service. Winchester Radio's Chairman represents Winchester Radio on a number of local community and volunteer-sector leaders, groups. health forums and business networks, including the Winchester Distrirt Older People's Partnership (WDOPP}; Dernentia Friendly Winchester; the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Social Prescribing Network,. the Hampshire & Isle of Wight ICS'S Winchester Health and Wellbeing Community Fomm,. and attends networking events/meetings organised through the year by Winchester BID. Winchester Radio's Treasurer continues in his role as one of HBA'S Trustees. Being part of such networks helps Winchester Radio keep up-to-date on developments across all the settors we operate in, encourages collaboration and sharing of best prartice, and most importantly of all, it highlights the issues afferting people we support. This in turn means we can ensure our programming includes coverage of these issues and signposting to appropriate support, and that our community outreach work meeting older people helps raise awareness of how our service can help them keep connected, and promote positive ageing. Winchester Radio maintains a good working relationship with the nearby University of Winchester, and the volunteer team includes alumni from the University. The charity is also an official community Partner for the University's annual "Volunteering and Community Champions Awards" Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HH) manages the RHCH, where Winchester Radio's studio and FM transmitter are based, and where it delivers the hospital radio service. The RHCH is one of three hospitals managed by the Trust. Winchester Radio's Chairman liaises throughout the year with members of HH'S Senior Management Team, and does broadcast interviews with members of the Board and clinical staff, often to tie in with local events or current health campaigns. Winchester Radio depends upon the seNices of H05pedia Ltd. the company that owns and runs the bedside entertainment system through which its programmes are delivered to patients at the RHCH. Since Ottober 2022. Winchester Radio also depends on UK DAB Page 3

Review of Activities and Achievements Programming aims Winchester Radio's aim is that our service- l. helps and encourages listeners to live a healthy, artive. independent life, engaged in the social life of the local community: and where this isn't possible (for example due to ill-health), to help reduce boredom and social isolation by playing a great selettion of music and keeping listeners in touch with what is happening locally; with the Ljltimate aim of improving the quality of people's lives as they get older, and thus reducing the need for support from the local health and care services. li written into the Ofcom FM community radio licence require that Winchester Radio provides a service.. primarily for people aged 50 and over. living in Winchester and the surrounding area; to help Improve health and wellbeing- and that offers music and speech to entertain and engage the local community; consisting of.. music.. a wide variety of pop, rock, Ja22, easy-listening, and countryi all from the 1950$ through to the present dayi Wlth classical and specialist music also featuring; speech: community information, local news, features and interviews, with a focus on content designed to encourage and promote good health and wellbeing; with a minbmum of 70 hours per week of origlnal output (output that Is first produced for and transmitted by Winchester Radio). We aim to provide a rnix of music and information tailored to the needs and interests of the older generation in Winchester who are under-served by other local radio stations. Our music mix is distinctive, and our hyper-local focus on Winchester and the immediately surrounding villages is unique in this area and, we believe, highly attractive. Having attracted our audience, we then use behavioural economics I'nudge theory") to subtly encourage listeners to make the best lifestyle choices for their own health and wellbeing. In pre-pandemic times, we told them about: all the enticing events happening on their doorstep; the range of local participative sports clubs they can Join; the great number of other social groups. charities and other organisations they can get involved with; the wide range of local support groups for those with long-term health condltions,. the cultural scene in and around the city; and important local government plans. consultations. and decisions that might affect their lives; and encouraged listeners to get involved. Programme Activities Winchester Radio delivered an average of 84 hours of 'original' hours of programme output per week, and an average of 220 volunteer hours per week, throughout 2022, in furtherance of the charity's aims. Our pmgramtne sthedule and style of service were in line with our Key Commitments to Ofcom, as outlined above. Some specific areas of focus for the charity on-air during 2022 are outlined below, including health promotion artivities and awarene55 campaigns coverage during the pandemic: the war in Ukraine which bore lots of local significance due to Winchester being an official 'City of Sanctuary,; support Page 4
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio available and how to access it for those struggling during the 'Cost of Living, crisis,. and Royal events of the year, including the sad passing of hei late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and how local people marked this. COVID-19 Winchester Radio carried many rnentions of COVID-19 throughoLJt the year, keeping listeners up-to-date with the latest advice and guidan from the government, and letting people know about changes and new initiatives such as eligibility for the Spring Booster vaccinations, the easing of restrictions. latest measures and mask-wearing guidance for anyone visiting the hospital, and pop-up and drop-in vaccination opportunities locally. Our coverage included interviews with health professionals during the year, particularly just ahead of when there was a significant shift in national guidance. Hospltal Being a charity based at the hospital, the Winchester Radio team were ever-mindful of the continued pressures which NHS staff were under during the pandemic, and we worked hard to keep the public aware of how they could help the hospital through adhering to latest COVID guidance, to helping get loved ones home when they were well enough for discharge to help free-up beds for frail and sick patients arriving in hospital, and in using the right N HS service, to avoid putting undue pressure on the emergency departments at our local hospitals. Additionally. we promoted saying "thank you" to staff through hospital's WOW Awards recognition scheme, shared news on how the public could support the hospital's own charities by attending events, or offering time as volunteers or sUPPOrters. A number of interviews were done with health staff during the year, including the marking of the 10th birthday of Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in January, along with the NHS staff panto that month to raise funds,. the annual Junior Doctor Awards; how new 'Virtual Wards, were innovating healthcare for patients; International Nurses Day in May; and Clinical Trials and how people could engage with this medical research. There was also coverage of the Winchester Hospice's first full year of operations and we again broadcast the Hospice's Winchester 'Light Up A Life" Service in memory of those loved ones lost. Health Campalgns and Awareness Days Winchester Radio continued, through its programme output, to encourage listeners to live a healthy, attive independent life by including coverage of a range of Health Campaigns and Awareness Days such as "Mental Health Awareness Week" the 'Mental Health Minute" and "Time To Talk Day"; through healthy-living awareness periods such as "Veganuary" 'Dry January" and "Stoptober" along with shining a light on a number of health conditions, and support available, be it face-to-face, over the phone, or online. We also regularly let listeners know hoY4, If they were fit and able to, they could help others through blood, tISsue and organ donation. Out and About With more and more community artivities returning to somewhat pre-COVID times norrnality* our team were able to get out-and-about more in the communityi doing interviews at events, with local chanties, and getting people's views on new developments and the various planned regeneration projects around the Winchester area. Our very own intrepid explorer, broadcaster Tony Knight did features on walking in and around Winchester, and we often included opportunities for walking with organised led walking groups, for those who may still not be feeling confident about going out on their own, or were wanting to build up their confidence and fitness gradually again, having been poorly or indoors a lot through the pandemic. We also encouraged listeners to get involved with nature and environmental campaign5 and initiative5 such as the "Great British Birdwatch" building bug houses or hedgehog highways in the garden, 'Plastic-Free July" and "Winchester Green Week" In addition, many volunteenng opportunities with local charities were promoted on-air, along with events and clubs which people could join for more social connettion if they were feeling lonely or isolated. We were also privileged to be invited along to a number of groups running activities locally to help reduce loneliness and isolation, including our team meeting people in March 2022 Page 5
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio at the inaugural "Vintage Fun" monthly gathering at the United Church on Jewry Street, organised by the "Anna Chaplaincy for Older People" and the welcome return post- pandemic of the "Winchester Paralympics Personal Bests" event - held over the summer to support, encourage and celebrate those with leaming disabilities trying out new sports. Members of the on-air team also attended and conducted interviews at a number of cultural events around Winchester through the year, including Festivals such as Winchester Fashion Week, Hat Fair, and the Winchester Heritage Open Days Festival; were present at milestone events in the city, such as the commemorative centenary of timetabled buses running (marked by the heritage fleet of charity 'Friends of King Alfred Buses"), along with interviews and celebrations of the 4001h Winchester 'ParkRun" in which 469 people took part. One of our team even got to travel on Santa's Sleigh with his merry band of helpful elves from the Winchester Round Table, to share some festive cheer around the neighbourhoods of Winchester just before Christmas, and collett some much-needed funds for local good causes. Cost of Living Crisis 2022 was an incredibly challenging year for rnanyi due to the high cost of livingi and Winchester Radio's team worked hard to ensure we kept listeners up-to-date with support available to them locallyi be it help with getting a hot meal, assistance with transport, or places to go for free to stay warm and dry and enjoy the company of others over a cuppa, whether socially or as part of a free working space during the winter months whilst people were struggling to keep their own homes heated. Helplines were shared and details of support groups locally given, plus we did a number of interviews Wlth organisations such as Churches Together in Winchester who had a coordinated effort of "Warm Welcomes and activities for people to access during the week at different local churches. We also covered how people who were able to could get involved, or donate groceries or toiletrles to help others in need in the community. Wlnchester Clty of Sanctuary On 24th February 2022. Russia invaded Ukraine. Winchester, as an official "City of Sanctuary" welcomed a high number of refugee families from Ukraine, fleeing the conflict. A number of "Standing with Ukraine" vigils were held locallyi and a coordinated effort of support hubs sprung up across the city to provide a warm welcoming and safe space for families to get together and find out more about housing, jobs and help within the community for them. Winchester Radio shared lots of information on-air through the year about the Ukraine Connertions and Community Hubs initiatives, including our volunteers doing interviews with organisers at the local churches, charities, the University and Winchester City Council. Royal Famllv 2022 saw the then HRH Prince Charles visit the city in the Spring, and the summer was joyful celebration of many local events to mark HM Queen Elizabeth Il's Platinum Jubilee. Winchester Radio's volunteers reported from a number of Jubilee street parties in June, and captured the mood of many locals in marking the Queen's 70 years of service to the nation. With the announcement of the monarch's death in September, our team were again out nd talking to the public locally about HM Queen Elizabeth 11. and people shared their feelings of grief, but also their treasured memories of meeting the Queen and wanting to celebrate her life of duty and service. As well as special programmes and news, featuring local people, we also broadcast a special short service of Prayer from one of our local churches. New initiatives we undertook in 2022 Due to high numbers of very ill patients including those with COVID still in the RHCH, and our volunteers not yet being allowed back on the wards to visit, we started piloting visiting different support groups and collecting their music requests whilst out on community visits. These included meeting and chatting with people at local stroke support groups, those living with dementia, church groups, older peoples, monthly clubs and sport and wellbeing groups. This is something we are continuing in 2023. but still hope to be able to get our volunteers back visiting patients in person again at the hospital too. Page 6
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio Since the launch of our community radio service in 2019, Winchester Radio has been heavily reliant on a single professional news journalist to produce daily local news bulletins on a voluntary basis. A number of work and personal commitments during 2022 meant that there were times when he was unable to produce the bulletins for us, and so a small committed band of eight of our volunteers stepped up and took on the additional workload of producing these local news bulletins for a nurnber of weeks, including throughout the summer months. With the return of one of our journalist alumni to the volunteer team, we also piloted delivering local news through a dedicated news magazine programme "Winchester Now later in the year, enabling us to capture more fully the wealth of local community attivities in the run-up to Christmas and share these "feel-good" stories. With the realisation that we had been too reliant on a single (very reliable) volunteer to produce daily news bulletins, the lack of sustainability with regards cover for this time- consuming attivity on a daily basis, and the positive comments received about Winchester Now" it was agreed with the original news Journalist that he would retire from producing daily local news bulletins for Winchester Radio, and we then would switch to weekly editions of "Winchester Now" as that was more sustainable for our volunteers in the longer term. Feedback and Recognition of our Volunteer-led Efforts The Winchester Radio team delivering the service are all volunteers, giving their time and energy for free, so it really means a lot to us when we hear back from our listeners on how much our service has helped them, particularly through a lonely or difficult time; and when other grassroots charities and local organisations we have given publicity to, on-alr, value how our service helps them, and their staff tske the time and trouble to say "thank you Here are some of the appreciative messages we had through the year: "Thank you so much for the beautiful programme early on Saturday.

Awards In 2022, our special interactive community engagement initiative at Christmas 2021, "Carols on the Doorstep" won Silver in the Best Special Event category of the National Hospital Radio Awards, with the Judges saying: A great community initiative that brought people together through the power of radio. Really interesting and informative. And our Chief Engineer, Paul Blitz, won the John Whitney Award for Outstanding Contribution, the citation recognising not only his long voluntary service at Winchester Radio, but also the assistance that he has provided. over many years, to other hospital and community radio stations. The citation read: Community-spirited. enthusiastic, hardworking. and helpful to us and other hospital radios, Paul is one of Winchester Radio s Trustees, and our Chief Engineer. He ha5 a degree in Elertronic Engineering. and ha5 worked in electronic5/IT all hi5 life, currently as a self-employed technical trainer/consultant. During 36 years volunteering at Winchester Radio, Paul has led the design, building and commissioning of all four sets of our studios. He has also been a Tmstee of the charity for 29 years. As part of the latest studio rebuild, Paul designed and built audio equipment (distribution amplifiers, routing switchers, silence detertors, etc) at a cost of less than £600, saving us around £8,000 compared to commercially-available units. He now makes these units available at Cost to other hospital and community radio stations. Paul has always offered support to other stations, starting by hosting a bulletin board in pre-intemet days. He took weekly trips to Hospital Radio 8asingstoke for 6 months in 2000 after fire bumt down their studios. and in September 2021 he responded to an urgent plea for help from Gosport Hospital Radio, driving to their studios, effecting a temporary fix whilst taking equipment home for repair. Page 8
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio Since the launch of our health and wellbeing community radio service, Paul has continued to enhance the capabilities and resilience of our technical systems, resolving issues even at unsocial hou - sometimes remotely. sometimes on-site at the studio. We have almost fully-redundant computersystems and audio switches that failover fmm one to the other, email a number of us when the silence detectors operate, and if silence is detected from one of the playout Compute email us a screenshot and then reboot the computer. Paul also regularly contributes to our broadcasts.. recording and editing local community events, voicing public service announcements, and presenting shows. This is despite the fact that. in recent years prior to the pandemic, Paul was regularly travelling both nationally and internationally with work. If we have a computer pmblem, Paul is always available to remotely-access the studi05 over one of the VPNS that he has set-up. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown, Paul quickly enabled remote broadcasting capabilitie5. and delivered a combination of new and existing audio equipment to our volunteers to allow them to continue to broadcast. from home, and dealt admirably with the many sUPPOrt querie5 thèt thi5 caused. Paul Blitz IS qulte simply one of life's "Unsung Hen?es". He never makes a fuss or seeks recognition - just gets on with whatever needs doing. He has, and continues to make, a real impact at Winchester Radio. We are hugely appreciative to Paul for all he does. Bob Whitbread, Chair of Gosport Hospital Radio said.. "Paul was like a breath of I5 air - within 2 hour5 he had solved the immediate problem, and he didn't know it then, but he had a very grateful team from Gosport Hospital Radio, pleased that we were actually back on-air... No amount of appreciation will explain just how pleased we were when he tumed up. Wlnchester Radlo was also a shortlisted top 10 nomlnee in the other 2 station categorles we entered for these annual awards.. Best Station Promotion for the promo for our Carols on the Doorstep" initiative, and in the Best Speech Package for an interview with GP and medical broadcaster, Dr Sarah Jarvis during the COVID-pandemic, DAB broadcasting Following our application to Ofcom in 202 1, Winchester Radio was awarded a Community Digital Service Provider licence on 4th February, allowing us to broadcast our service on the Winchester Small-scale DAB digital radio network when it launched. The network started broadcasting at the very end of September, with an official launch in early October. Winchester Radio was one of the launch stations. A visit from Japan Winchester Radio has always been happy to share our knowledge with other hospital and community radio practitioners. Until now, our knowledge has been shared only within the UK. However, in September, Professor Akiko Agawa from the Nagoya University in Japan visited us on a tour of h05Pltal radio stations in the UK as part of her academic research. She wa5 Particularly interested in our pioneering move into health & wellbeing community broadcasting. Generating earned income Late in 2021. Winchester Radio applied for funding from the DCMS-funded, Ofcom- administered Community Radio Fund to employ a Community Business Development Manager to help grow earned-income and reduce the dependence of the charity on grant funding. The Cornrnunity Radio Fund provides such funding to Ofcom-licensed community radio stations as seed-fundingi allowing them to employ paid staff for an initial fixed-term in the hope that they are sufficiently successful that the role become self-funding In Page 9
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio subsequent years. The application was successful, although not for the full amount,. the funding panel agreed to fund the employee for 30 hours/week. The funding arrived in March 2022. but we found recruitment diffficult, and it wasn't until August that the Community Business Development Manager started work. Unfortunately, the individual found that they had over-cornmitted themselves alongside other commitments, and left after only 7 weeks. After reflecting on lessons to be learned, the Trustees approached Ofcom to vary the terms of the grant, to allow the employment of nother Community Business Development Manager for a further 12 months, but with reduced hourslweek. This was agreed and, following another recruitment process, the new employee started work in mid-2023. Acknowledgements All Winchester Radio's activities have only been possible through the sterling efforts of dedicated team of around 25 regular volunteers. supplemented by a number of additional volunteers providing ad-hoc support. putting in literally thousands of hours of effort, and we'd like to take this opportunity to thank them for their continued time, energy and commitment throughout another very challenging year. We particularly appreciate that a number of the team stepped up to take on additional volunteer tasks outside their normal area of volunteering, to assist the charity's smooth running. Overall, we conservatively estimate that the volunteer team has given almost 11,500 hours of their time to the charity during the year. Using the standard Ofcom , this is worth approximately £128,000. There is a whole body of clinical evidence that says "Giving to others" is one of the key '5 Ways to Mental Wellbeing" (as outlined on the NHS website), and our charity, as volunteer-led one, has always recognised the benefits of volunteering it is very much two-way street., helping others can also help those who volunteer making them feel valued, helping them feel connerted, and with a sense of purpose, giving their tirne with like-minded altruistic people who want to rnake a positive difference in the world, and utilising existing skills or developing new ones, in carrying out their designated volunteer roles to help further the charitable aims of the organisation. We always champion volunteering done well, and those altruistic souls who go above and beyond to help others, We are thankful to Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for their ongoing support for what we do, and for continuing to provide us with free accommodation, worth almost £8,500. We were Informed by the Senior Management in May that the planned relocatlon of our studio to Level A of Burrell Wing was not now going to be posslble, due to redevelopment plans including a new elertive orthopaedic hub. Whilst the hospital management were adamant that they would continue to accommodate Winchester Radio, discussions continued through the year and into 2023. At the time of writing, it is believed that Winchester Radio will be relocating, during 2023, to Ashley Wing. Small charities such as Winchester Radio do not have the financial means to spend funds on professional services, cloud-based IT systems and advertising, so we are incredibly grateful that many businesses, large and small. have supported us during 2022. We'd also like to say a huge thank you to the many individuals who have donated to Winchester Radio during 2022, and the local companies and organisations who have supported us through taking radio-advertising with us. We are very grateful to all those who champion and support charity Winchester Radio. Financial Performance Overall, Winchester Radio is financially sound and has significant cash reserves. At the end of 2022, Winchester Radio had total cash reserves, in-hand and at the bank, of Just under £87,000 {2021'. Just over £59.000}, of which £26,195 (2021.. £8,850) is restricted funds (two-thirds of which is the Community Radio Fund grant). As in 2021, there are just over £1,200 of prepayments recorded. These relate to.. Page 10
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio end-of-year adjustments, where the charity has paid in 2022 for a service to be delivered in partly 2022 (for instance, it includes the part of the £850 Ofcom licence fees, paid in March, that relates to the period after 31st December 2022),. and purchase of music download credits with a supplier of professional-quality music downloads (we purchase credits in bulk to obtain the best price). This year the debtors, at £1.153. is significantly larger than the £116 recorded last year. This increase is entirely due to an advertising sales invoice being issued in late December but paid in )anuary 2023. The £22 (2021: £13) of trade creditors relates to monthly bills the Direct Debit for which were not taken until January 2023. The £1,628 (2021- nil) of payments received on account is advertising sales for carnpaigns due to run in 2023. The £60 (2021- É701 of stock is fundraising CDS prodUd by the predecessor charityi Winchester Hospital Radio, and which are sold on enquiry from members of the public. Based on the financial performance in this and the three previous years, the Trustees have confirmed their estimate that the base running costs for providing both the community and hospital radio services for a full year is around £7,500. The Trustees have, therefore, formally designated an additional Él 1,000 12021- £5,525) of the unrestricted reserves as being for the studio relocationlre-equipping project. Overall assets totalled just over E103,000 (202 1: just under £84,000, the difference being primarily due to the Community Radio fund grant, and a £5,000 legacy). Income Total recorded income was £49,266 12021: £24.752), consisting of £32,375 in grants, donations and other monetary gifts (2021: E7,5511. £13.121 worth of donations-in-kind 12021.. £ 15,316}, £3,478 income from trading attivities (2021: £1,880) and E292 of bank interest12021: £5). Three significant grants were received during the year: £20,933 from the Community Radio Fund, to employ a part-time Community Business Development Manager, as explained above; £2,800 from Winchester City Council, as part of its 'Priority Outcomes Framework grant-funding programme (this is the first of renewed a 3-year grant programme further two years of funding, at a somewhat lower level each year, has been agreed covering the years 2023 to 2025). and £2,000 from the Rotary Clubs of Salisbury, Sarum, and Winchester, from the proceeds of the Clarendon Marathon. In addition, we received: a £5,000 legacy from the late Doria Blitz. mother of Paul Blitz, a long-standing Trustee and founder member of the predecessor charity. Winchester Hospital Radio; and a £500 donation from Rick Stein's Winchester restaurant relating to sales of the "Winchester Pudding" a percentage of the cost of which is donated to local charities. Donations-in-kind included.. free-of-charge accommodation. provided by Hampshire Hospltals NHS Foundation Trust, worth £8,450; accountancy services, namely the Independent Examination of this Trustees, Annual Report & Accounts, worth £2,475. from Jonathan Poulter of Rothmans; free access from Google to its Workspace email and collaboration software, worth over É1,400- and free cloud-hosted Voice-over-IP telephony services. providing the charity with a memorable telephone number and remote a(55 to make and receive calls and messages, courtesy of Nimvelo. worth over £500. Trading income arose from: Page 11
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio sales of on-air advertising to local businesses- £1,842 {2021.. £ 1,333),. in addition, a further £1,628 of advertising sales were completed for campaigns to run on-air in two fundraising car boot sales which raised £873 (2021: £547) in sellers, pitch fees. a short consultancy contract with Action Hampshire, to help design the Voluntary Charity and Social Enterprise involvement with the NHS Hampshire & Isle of Wight Integrated Care Board,. fundraising coffee rnorningi and two fundraising CD sales. The produrtion of the commercials cost £41012021:£290), meaning that advertising sales brought in Just over £1,400 net - significantly less than we were hoping for. The car boot sales cost £180 for licence fees from Winchester City Council, meaning that the events raised Just under É700. The coffee morning was held at Rick Stein's Winchester restaurant, which didn't charge for hosting the event, so all income came direttly to Winchester Radio. Expendlture There was only £53 of capital expenditure on upgrading fixed assets this year {2021'. nil). A further £23 (2021: £491 was spent on new music for the library now purchased in digital form from a professional media download service. rather than in the form of CDS as previously. By far the most-slgnificant ongoing revenue expense is music copyright licensing fees, totalling over £2,000 again this year. This is followed by the Ofcom licences required to broadcast as a community radio station (£850 per annum for the FM licence, plus £100 per annum for the DA8 licence) and insurance (£700 this year). The next two most- significant ongoing costs are the IRN news subscription, which provides us with hourly national/international news bulletins, plus access to news stories Vla their Net Newsroom" facilityi and the broadband intemet connertion. New expenditure this year is the employment costs of the Community Buslness Development Manager. There were one-off costs associated with recruitment (£5521 and the purchase of a mobile phone (£1581. plus the salary and pension costs Itotalling just under £2,700). The earned income that the Community Business Development Manager role is intended to generate needs to be a mix of prirnary-purpose income and non- primary-purpose income, to ensure that Winchester Radio remains within the limits on charity trading. The costs of employment have, thefOre been split 75125 between expenditure on charitable activities and fundraising activities, to match the intended mix of generated income. Banking fee5 include: a monthly fee charged by CAF Bank- and payment processing fees from PayPal (donations). donr {text donations) and Gocardless (membership fee dirett debits). Wherever possible, use was made of products and services made available free-of-charge or at reduced price to charities. This includes: Google Workspace; the VOIP telephone system from Nimvelo: and the audio stream hosting from streamerr. Financial Management and Reserves Policies Winchester Radio has a Financial Management Policy which defines the controls to be implemented to ensure that the charity's assets are secure. This policy meets all the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity Commission guidelines 'lnternal Financial Controls for Charities (CC8)" Page 12
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio The charity and its predecessor have been slowly building up a reserve for an inevitable re-equipping and move of studios. Winchester Radio is currently in a small temporary studio. Ahead of the launch of the community radio seThice, a complete new set of studio equipment and computers was purchased. and virtually all of this will be able to be relocated to new studios. After the reporting period, the NHS Trust informed the Trustees that the IOOm2 of floor space within the Burrell Wing of the RHCH, that had been allocated to Winchester Radio pre-pandemic was no-longer avoiloble. and thot the existing studio location is to be redeveloped as clinical space. The CEO of the NHS Trust has assured the Trustees that the NHS Trust remains committed to accommodating Winchester Radio, and an alternative location, albeit of a similar size to the current accommodation, has provisionally been identified for Winchester radio to occupy for the next 6-8 years, ahead of the new hospital being built on the outskirts of Basingstoke, when, as part of widescale upgrades to the RHCH, new larger studio and office accommodation for Winchester Radio have been Ilocated. At the time of writing, the Trustees ore in detailed discussions with the NHS Trust management regarding the initial relocation. which it is understood is required to be completed during 2023. and its funding. It is Intended that, once the studio move is complete, any remaining designated funds will be undesignated. Unrestritted reserves will retum to equivalent to l year's cash expenditure. If the employment of a Community Business Development Manager is successful, the reserves policy will need to be adjusted to take account of the costs of employment. As the employee Is currently employed on a fixed-term contract, funded by the Communlty Radio Fund, there Ss no immediate need to adjust the current pollcy. Management of Major Rlsks The launch of our community radio service in 2019, with the attendant significant increase in running costs, was {and remains) a significant risk to Winchester Radio. The project was approved on the basis of three major Income streams, all of which have risks grant funding, commercial advertising and sponsorship, and personal donations. However, with the financial buffer afforded by the current reserves, the Tnjstees are confident that the charity has a long-term future. Grènt funding-wise. the 3-year agreement with Winchester City Council, recently renewed, albeit at a lower level. and a long-term relationship with Winchester Rotary provides further confidence. Income from advertising sales remains low, but early in the reporting period we were successful in our application to the DCMS-funded, Ofcom-administered Community Radio Fund, for a grant to employ a Community Business Development Manager for an initial 12 months, with the intent that they bring-in revenue of 150% of their salary, making both their position sustainable and a significant improvernent in earned income not only from advertising sales, but also primary-purpose funded programming and other initiatives. In the meantime, in the short- to medium-term, the charity has sufficient funds to continue to provide both a hospital and community radio service, despite the legacy of the disruption to funding streams caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating as a community radio station, with programming heard across the cityft brings risks in the form of libel and the requirement to comply with broadcasting legislation, including the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. The FM transmitter and antenna were Installed and commissioned by professionals, and signed-off by Ofcom, ensuring that the transmissions are technically compliant with the engineering codes. All on-air presenters receive training, on joining and then annually. on the requirements of the Broadcasting Code, and on libel. The charity's insurance includes limited libel and slander protection in the unlikely event of a complaint. The final major risk associated with the community radio service is technical equipment failure, taking the station off-air for a significant period of time. This is compounded by the charity having a core technical team of two volur)teers, both of whose paid work may take them away from home, or otherwise mean that they are unable to immediately respond to a technical problem. This risk has been mitigated by installing new equipment, Page 13
Trustees. Annual Re ort & Accounts 2022 Winchester Radio including spares that, as far as possible, are intended to automatically switch over in case of failure, and by the provision of remote access to the computer systems. During the reporting period, our service has remained on-air 2417, with the rare equipment failure being covered by the automated switch-overs and alerting of our technicol team. Insurance cover is in place for extreme cases of equipment failure. Another major risk facing the charity is its accommodation. As detailed above, Hampshire Hospitals are requiring Winchester Radio to relocate. as the current studio location is being redeveloped as clinical spoce. The NHS Trust has assured us that they wish Winchester Radio to remain on site at the RHCH. and discussions are on-going at the time of submission a5 to what the options are. and who will cover the associated relocation costs.
