Healthwatch Wakefield

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The Charity's objects

The advancement of health and the relief of those in need by reason of youth, age, ill-health, disability or financial hardship by:

  1. Providing information and advice to the general public about local health and social care services.

  2. Making the views and experiences of members of the general public known to health and social care providers. 3. Enabling local people to have a voice in the development, delivery, and equality of access to local health and care services and facilities.

  3. Providing training and the development of skills for volunteers and the wider community in understanding, scrutinising, reviewing, and monitoring local health and care services and facilities.

  4. Conducting investigation and research into relevant health and social care issues and making public the useful results of such work.

The Charity's main activities

Healthwatch Wakefield is the local health and social care champion. From Overton to Knottingley and everywhere in between, we make sure NHS leaders and other decision-makers hear local peoples' voices and use their feedback to improve care. If anyone uses GPs, hospitals, dentists, pharmacies, care homes or other support services in our area, we want to hear about their experiences.

We are independent and impartial, and anything people tell us is confidential. We provide reliable and trustworthy information and advice to help local people to get the support they need, including independent advocacy for formal NHS complaints. We also find out what people think through research and engagement.

Healthwatch Wakefield is delivered by Healthwatch Wakefield Ltd. Healthwatch Wakefield is registered in England as a charitable company limited by guarantee.

We employ a staff team and are helped by volunteers, and our Board of Trustees oversees and steers our work. They are locally appointed people, also volunteers, who are expected to have a passion for improving health and social care for communities in Wakefield District. They meet on a regular basis to oversee the organisation and ensure that legal requirements and appropriate statutory rules and regulations are followed. They also make sure that work is delivered to plan, and that our allocated money is spent in accordance with the budget and that value for money is achieved.

People's views come first - especially those who find it hardest to be heard. We champion what matters to them, and work with others to find ideas that work. We are independent and committed to making the biggest difference to the residents of Wakefield District.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Statutory functions

The purpose of local Healthwatch is to give citizens and communities a stronger voice to influence and challenge how health and social care services are provided within their locality. Local Healthwatch organisations have eight statutory functions to perform:

  1. Promoting and supporting involvement of local people in commissioning, provision and scrutiny of local care services.

  2. Enabling local people to monitor local care services and whether / how they could/ought to be improved.

  3. Obtaining views of local people regarding their needs for, and experiences of, local care services and making these views known.

  4. Making reports and recommendations about how local care services could or ought to be improved. These should be directed to commissioners and providers, and people responsible for managing or scrutinising services and shared with Healthwatch England.

  5. Providing advice and information about access to local care services so choices can be made about local care services.

  6. Formulating views on standard of provision and whether and how the local care services could and ought to be improved.

  7. Making recommendations to Healthwatch England to advise the Care Quality Commission to conduct special reviews or investigations (or, where the circumstances justify making such recommendations direct to the CQC); and to make recommendations to Healthwatch England to publish reports about particular issues.

  8. Providing Healthwatch England with the intelligence and insight it needs to enable it to perform effectively.

In the local context Healthwatch Wakefield currently has seats on the Wakefield District Health and Wellbeing Board, the Wakefield District Health and Care Partnership Board, and the Wakefield District Safeguarding Adults Board.

In the sub regional context Healthwatch Wakefield currently has a seat on the Harnessing Power of Communities Board in West Yorkshire.

Public Benefit Statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of health and the relief of those in need.

Our vision

A world where we can all get the health and care we need.

Our Mission

To make sure people's experiences help make health and care better.

Our Values

Listening to people and making sure their voices are heard. Including everyone in the conversation - especially those who do not always have their voice heard. Analysing different people's experiences to learn how to improve care. Acting on feedback and driving change.

Partnering with care providers, Government, and the voluntary sector - serving as the public's independent advocate.

We will continue to work with partners on a wider geographical footprint in line with our stated values and behaviours, including neighbouring local Healthwatch organisations, to ensure that local people's voices remain heard across the Integrated Care System in West Yorkshire - it will remain important to us that the Wakefield District public voice does not get lost amidst these important conversations and decisions at a regional level.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Achievement and performance

Our priorities for 2024-2025

Over the next year, we will keep reaching out to every part of society, especially people in the most deprived areas, so that those in power hear their views and experiences.

We will also work together with partners and our local Integrated Care System to help develop an NHS culture where, at every level, staff strive to listen and learn from patients to make care better.

Our top priorities for the next year are:

Understanding the accessibility and support availability of ADHD / ASD diagnosis for children and their families.

Tackling health inequalities.

Financial review

Financial position

The net surplus this year was £23,445 including net income of £23,092 on unrestricted funds and net income of £353 on restricted funds.

Following the above results, the Trustees will continue to review the allocated expenditure across all contracted activities in the new financial year as well as reviewing the allocation of unrestricted and restricted funds.

Reserves policy

We aim to hold between 3- and 6-months' running costs as reserves. The Charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year-end were £176,907.

This represents approximately 4 months of annual expenditure.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Healthwatch Wakefield

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Healthwatch Wakefield ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees believe that the charity's financial statements are appropriately prepared under the going concern basis.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Office equipment - 25% on cost

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity operates a workplace pension scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.

Operating lease commitments

Rents under operating leases are charged on a straight line basis over the lease term or to an earlier date if the lease can be determined without financial penalty.
