World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) Annual Report and Financial Statements Year ended 31 December 2022

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a company limited by guarantee (registered in England and Wales number 09312117) and has no share capital. The liability of each member in the event of winding up is limited to £1. Its registered address is 57 Queen Anne Street, London, W1G 9JR.

As per its Articles of Association, the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) (WFSA (UK)) is governed by a Board of Directors who are also Trustees as per the Charities Act 2011. Day-today management is provided by the Company Secretary.

At the end of the period, four of the six directors were based in the UK with the other Trustees holding positions on the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) as per the Articles of Association Clause 27, 3-5:

Trustees’ Report and Activity Review

Objectives and activities

The object of the WFSA (UK) as set out in the Articles of Association, is:

To preserve and protect the health of patients through ensuring they receive and have access to safe anaesthesia worldwide by educating and training anaesthesia providers, disseminating international standards and supporting innovation and research in anaesthesiology for the benefit of the public.

Public benefit

The WFSA (UK) provides public benefit by educating and training anaesthesia providers, disseminating international standards and supporting innovation and research in anaesthesiology. The Trustees confirm they have complied with the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives.

Who we are

The WFSA (UK) is led by a team of volunteer anaesthesiologists together with other volunteers who share a mission to improve access to safe anaesthesia and to ensure that its provision is as safe as possible. We exist to further and support the global activities of the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) and to bring UK expertise, volunteers and financial resources to bear on the global crisis of unsafe anaesthesia and surgery.

Achievements and performance

The WFSA (UK) seeks to support the WFSA in its work to address the fact that five billion people (of a global population of just over seven billion) do not have access to safe, affordable anaesthesia and surgery. Our work continued to be somewhat restricted during the financial year ending 31 December 2022 due to the global coronavirus pandemic, and the intermittent restrictions on international travel. However, the charity still supported several key projects.

Collaboration with THET

We worked with the UK charity THET to pilot a new training package around obstetric care in Somaliland. The WFSA worked with the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists to develop a “Master Trainers” course which was delivered virtually to a multidisciplinary cohort of clinicians involved in obstetric care in Somaliland. We also delivered a Safe Anaesthesia from Education (SAFE) – Online Obstetrics course to colleagues in Myanmar who due to the emergency in that country are unable to access face-to-face training.

Fund a Colleague’s Education

During 2022 we continued to operate three Fellowships: Paediatric Anaesthesia in Nairobi and Bangkok, and Pain Management in Bangkok. This year we were able to support the training of 4 Fellows across these programmes.

Liberia Anaesthesia Capacity Development

The WFSA workforce survey showed that across Africa only five countries had a Physician Anaesthesia Provider density greater than 1 per 100,000 population. The minimum recommended number is 4 per 100,000 population. The problem is particularly acute in Liberia which has a population of over 5 million but has never had a Physician Anaesthesia Provider of Liberian origin working in the country. Instead, provision of anaesthesia has been wholly reliant on the efforts of approximately 70 anaesthetic nurses. We know that physician anaesthesia providers play a key role in developing the

5 | P a g e

World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) Annual Report and Financial Statements Year ended 31 December 2022

knowledge and skills of non-physician providers and provide crucial support for particularly difficult cases, and the Charity is therefore working to support the creation of a cadre of Liberian Physician Anaesthesia Providers. This work has been ongoing since 2018 and aims to support Liberian physicians to complete the West African College of Surgeons (WACS) Diploma in Anaesthesia through training in Nigeria. During 2022 we welcomed a new trainee to the programme who is currently working towards his WACS Diploma in anaesthesia qualification. Two previous years’ graduates are currently working in Liberia, while a third graduate is pursuing a higher-level anaesthesiology qualification with WACS.

Innovation Awards

Following successful delivery of the WFSA-Fresenius Kabi Innovation Awards at the 2021 virtual World Congress of Anaesthesiologists, during 2022 we secured funding for a further round of the Award. For the current round, which is to be awarded in early 2023, we prioritised applications within the categories of a) Environmental / Eco-friendly anaesthesia – Innovations that promote the WFSA Consensus principles of environmentally sustainable anaesthesia; b) Safer Medication Management – Innovations that improve the efficiency and safety of medication management, and c) Clinical Nutrition in the perioperative setting – Innovations that focus on promoting and ensuring optimal nutrition to improve safety and outcomes for surgical & critically ill patients. We received a total of 25 applications within these three categories and worked with a global judging panel to select the winners who will be celebrated at the 2024 World Congress of Anaesthesiologists taking place in Singapore.

Trustees’ Report and Strategic Review (continued)

Plans for 2023

We will continue our collaboration with the WFSA for the benefit of patients worldwide through our global anaesthesia capacity-building and strengthening projects. This will include work on the Liberia Anaesthesia Development Programme which we hope to expand to enable more physicians to train and complete the Diploma in Anaesthesia certification and from there pursue more advanced qualifications. We are also considering the expansion of the programme to other countries where there is a lack of Physician Anaesthesia Providers.

During 2023 we will continue to work closely with the WFSA and other partners on the funding and delivery of SAFE training courses worldwide, as well as on revitalising the delivery of Fellowship programmes now the global COVID pandemic has receded. This may include work in Palestine in collaboration with the Palestinian Society of Anaesthesia and another UK charity.

We also expect to work with the WFSA to develop a new training on Patient Blood Management, taking a patient-centred, systematic and evidence-based approach to improve outcomes by managing and preserving the patient’s own blood, while promoting patient safety and empowerment.

Financial review

The WFSA (UK) generated income of £105,509 (2021: £95,330) over the course of the year. Total expenditure was £97,215 (2021: £73,566). The total reserves at the end of the year were £56,170 (2021: £46,800) of which £51,940 (2021: £37,955) was restricted.

The Charity supported these projects by making contributions to its partner organisation, the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA), a non-profit organisation registered in the US (registration number EIN 13-3211128) with the same objects. A collaboration agreement is in place between the partners, and WFSA staff and Trustees are aware of their liabilities and responsibilities in delivering the projects as specified by WFSA (UK) Trustees and grant funders.

World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) Annual Report and Financial Statements Year ended 31 December 2022

Our approach to risk

The Board of WFSA (UK) reviews the organisation’s risk register at least annually. Each risk is analysed in terms of likelihood and impact; and mitigatory steps included to manage this.

Reserves policy

The Trustees recognise that the level of unrestricted reserves of the charity is low but point out that the charity has virtually zero running costs and is supported entirely by volunteers. Its partner organisation, WFSA, has agreed to support the charity to ensure it remains a going concern. The Charity aims to maintain £12,320 in reserves, sufficient for the winding-up of the organisation and three months’ operational costs.

Going concern

The Trustees have ensured that the WFSA (UK) is a going concern thanks to a commitment from our partner organisation, the WFSA, for ongoing support of the Charity’s operations. Whilst the pandemic continued to curtail activities during 2022, funding proposals were submitted to Masimo (Palestine), Fresenius Kabi (Innovation Awards), Vifor (Patient Blood Management).

The WFSA (UK) is an independent charity allied to the WFSA, and some resources are shared between the two organisations, notably staff and office space. While the impact of the COVID pandemic has continued to be felt during 2022 in terms of income, the running costs of WFSA (UK) are minimal and therefore the financial risk to the organisation continues to be low.

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities

The Trustees (who are also Directors of WFSA (UK)) for the purpose of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom accounting standards (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards in the United Kingdom, including the Statement of Recommended Practice – Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP), Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) and in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011, using applied accounting policies.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

Public benefit entity

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

Going concern

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern and to continue acquiring new contracts.

The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

Income

Recognition of income takes place in accordance with applicable accounting policies and results are presented in accordance with SORP & FRS 102. All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Grants and donations are recorded in the period in which they are received, or the Charity is entitled to the income. Any donations tied to a particular purpose are credited to restricted reserve.

Income from revenue grants and other grants are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable. Where unconditional entitlement to grants receivable is dependent on fulfilment of conditions within the Charity's control, the incoming resources are recognised when there is sufficient evidence that conditions will be met. It is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Contractual income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

12 | P a g e

World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) Annual Report and Financial Statements Year ended 31 December 2022

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Gifts and services in kind

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In the case of donated fixed assets, a designated fund is created reflecting the book value of the asset, which is then reduced over the useful economic life of the asset in line with its depreciation.

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised based on the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Unrestricted general funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes. The General Fund has to provide for the net deficit of any activities that have inadequate income of their own and for the general administration of the Charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.

Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and that the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Resources expended include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

13 | P a g e

World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists (UK) Annual Report and Financial Statements Year ended 31 December 2022

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned based on project expenditure.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. Cash balances exclude any funds held on behalf of service users.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency transactions

Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are considered in arriving at the operating profit.
