There is no curreni inditalion of risk in reBard to the Charity's main grant, but Healthwatch Milton Keynes (CIO) holds sufficient funds for a solvent closure by means of one month's operating costs held in reseNe5 and on these bases the Board of Trustees belleve the going concern basls of preparation Is appropriate. It is the policy of Healthwatch Milton Keynes io commit unrestricted funds which have noi been designated for a specific activ¢ty io maintain reserves at a level to support runnin8 Costs In the event that a change in government or commissioning policy necessitates the winding up of the or8anisation. On an annual basis Healthwaich Milton Keynes will produce a Budget for the full financial year, and six-month Reforecast for ottober- March, and will set a minirnum reseNes calculation based on Its estimate5 of the sums required io achieve an orderly close-down of the organisation.

Healthwatch MK CIO Trustees Annual Report Healthwatch Milton Keynes received £136,397 lin addition tts the core funding from Milton Keynes Councsll funding through grants and contracts in 2023-24. This included.. • £1.200 by Healthwatch England to delivery Enter and view training to professionals in the Healthwatch network. £875 from Healthwatch England to undertake Enter and view activities in Community Oiagnostic Centres. £4.OLKI from BIMK ICB to deliver Community Research Activities mapping. £24,865 from Central Northwest London Trust ICNWLI to undertake a weekly experience clinic at the Campbell Centre. £41,815 by Milton Keynes City Council through the 'MK Deal, to gather evidence of patient experience of hospital discharge and inform the design of a new Integrated Discharge Pathway and to inform the development of the Bletchley Pathf¢nder. £6,998 frorn 8LMK ICB to deliver aciivities to improve women'5 knowledge and acce5S to pre-conception information. £S0.000 from BLMK ICB to deliver attivities against the rettsmmendations of the Denny Review. • £6,636 from 8LMK ICB to deliver focus 8ro(tP5 to to-design future Musculoskeletal servites. The ttme span for some of the above projects covers both 2023-24 and 2024-25 and thus income has onlv been recognised rn the income and eypenditure account when it has been eafned. Any funding received by 31st March 2024 but relating to work to be carried out 3fter the year end is shown as deferred income in the balance sheel. Healthwatch Milton Keynes current end of year funds exceed that of our planned reserves as at 31st March 2024. Funds being carried forward into the 2024-25 reflect some underspends on projects due to staff turnover in the year which are planned to be retruited and spent in 2024-25. There is also a need io build up reserves to cover years in the future where there may not be so much opportunity to inciease funds through projects- so we can continue to be able to potentially wind up the charity in an orderly manner. The charity is budgeted to make 3 deficit in 2024-25 reflecting the catch up spends on projects and the inflation of costs related to the provision of MKC core services not being covered by the level of the grant. The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
