## Chair’s Foreword
On behalf of the Trustees of Sheffield Hospitals Charity, I am delighted to present the Charitable Group’s Annual Report and Accounts for the year ending 31 March 2022.
This document provides an overview for stakeholders and interested parties of what the Charity has achieved during 2021/22. The Annual Report, including director’s report, and Accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and complies with the Charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102).
This report and accounts cover yet another challenging period for the NHS, as it continues to deal with the pandemic and also the longer-term effects of it on patients, staff and the hospitals themselves. We have continued to receive an inspirational outpouring of support from the public, individuals, community groups and businesses alike.
The charity continues to provide vital support to both staff and patients within Sheffield, on behalf of the Trustees I would like to acknowledge the dynamism and commitment of the charity team, under the leadership of Gareth.
During the period we took the decision to front the regional application for NHSCT Stage Two funding across South Yorkshire & Bassetlaw. Our Grants Manager (Shasta Ashraf) was successful in overseeing this process and helped to secure £750,000 of funding for a range of recovery projects.
SHC are the principal supporters of over 65 calm room spaces across the hospitals and wider community, which provide a space for the physical and mental relaxation of staff. We fund the “Schwartz Rounds” mental health sessions which offer a forum for staff to share their thoughts and feelings. The first of our satellite outdoor spaces was completed at the Weston Park Cancer Centre, providing a roof top garden for staff to access and the plans have been completed for the Secret Garden our major health and wellbeing garden at the Northern General.
We have completed a review of our long-term commitments for the Arts in Health and Volunteer Services and continue to champion their work within the hospitals, particular credit goes to the Volunteer Service who were awarded the Queens Award for Volunteering to celebrate their amazing efforts.
Over the Christmas period we had a hugely emotive and successful appeal to celebrate “25 years of the Jessop’s Maternity Hospital”. Celebrating the work of the hospital, its staff and heartfelt stories from “Real People and Real Stories”. Building on this the charity organised a visit to Jessop’s from the Boxing Heavyweight World Champion, Tyson Fury, who has pledged his longterm commitment to supporting the hospital.
Our other Ambassador, Johnny Nelson, secured coverage of our Lee Noble Leukemia drill appeal on Sky News, as a result of this the appeal went up and above its target and continues to grow further with more fundraisers coming onboard.
Through our Grant Investment Panel, the charity has provided grants in excess of £2.5m to support the NHS in Sheffield during this most challenging of times.

We are delighted to strengthen our Senior Team with the addition of Sam Earnshaw as our Head of Corporate Partnerships and Major Giving. Sam comes from a 25+ year career in the media sales in the corporate market. We look forward to seeing her flourish within the Sheffield Business Community.
We have recently said goodbye to our longest standing Trustee, John O’Kane. John has played a crucial role in the development of the charity and I would like to thank him for his dedication and contribution over many years.

## Review of the year
The charity remains committed to the following objectives:
1. Develop a diversified and sustainable portfolio of fundraising activities delivered by a committed, professional and motivated fundraising team.
2. Increase the proportion of the Charity’s income that is raised through companies, major donors and through charitable trusts and foundations.
3. Proactively spend down its earmarked funds with our NHS partners, reducing its overall fund balances so that the Charity can meet as much of the greatest identified need as it can, utilising funds in a timely manner.
4. Re-engineer our processes, funds and structures to become more efficient and truly customer focussed towards all stakeholders.
5. Increase our presence in the hospitals and wider Sheffield community.
6. Continually improve the measurement and communication of the impact of our grant making.
7. Fully embrace digital fundraising methods and communications.
8. Comply with best practice, legislation and guidelines and be able to adapt to change.
We have over 250 special purpose funds and are proud that the public trust us to invest their money wisely and with care. We work to ensure our funds are invested in a timely manner into projects for patient benefit in accordance with their wishes. This in time will reduce the number of funds to administer and the cost of administering them.
## **The Role of the Charity**
The core mission of the Charity is to enhance the care and treatment of patients accessing NHS services in Sheffield, by supporting high priority areas which are beyond the scope of government funding.
We achieve this by partnering with NHS clinicians and staff to deliver projects that make a vital difference to patients by:
- enhancing the quality of patient care.
- improving the environment for patients and staff.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 4
- supporting NHS staff development to enable them to provide excellent clinical and patientcentred care.
- providing funding for pioneering research with the potential to impact directly on the treatment and well-being of patients.
- funding state-of-the-art equipment that improves outcomes for patients.
## **Our Vision**
To be the local healthcare charity of choice, trusted to support people in our community from birth to the end of life by enabling projects to be delivered that improve the health and treatment of local patients.
## **Our Mission**
Good health is priceless, but the NHS in Sheffield needs more money.
Our mission is to fund initiatives which are over and above what can be afforded locally including projects that improve our health, state of the art equipment, pioneering research, patient support services and the transformation of our hospitals into more welcoming and comfortable spaces.
## **Our values based support for healthcare in Sheffield**
Our aim is to raise and distribute money to benefit patients and health generally in Sheffield and the surrounding area, with honesty, integrity and openness. Working in partnership with others wherever possible, we take a proactive and dynamic approach to provide a comprehensive and professional service to stakeholders, and to the health services they seek to support. We will be clear, consistent, personable and responsive with our stakeholders. In everything we do we pursue excellence, high impact, efficiency and cost effectiveness, and practice rational and robust governance.
The trustees and staff of Sheffield Hospitals Charity work together as a supportive and inclusive team, bringing out the best in each other in a caring and respectful environment. We enjoy our work, but most of all we are proud to be the means by which supporters choose to show their appreciation for excellent health service provision and research in Sheffield, and to be able to help health service professionals channel that support to where it is most needed.
## **Our strategic objectives**
1. To work with healthcare providers to enable them to deliver an outstanding overall patient experience, which delivers the best possible outcomes for patients and their families.
2. To be the healthcare charity of choice for local people.
3. Drive innovation in healthcare by investing in pioneering projects locally.
4. Supporting initiatives to prevent ill health and promote good health.

## **Activities for Public Benefit**
Thanks to the continued generosity of our supporters, Sheffield Hospitals Charity has been able to invest £2.5 million across all areas of care. This included grant-making in the following areas:
Patients welfare and amenities £635k Staff welfare and amenities £510k Staff training and courses £15k Research £333k Equipment £49k NHSCT Community grants £298k COVID response gifts in kind £630k
## **COVID19 Response**
Through the generosity of the local response to COVID19 and the national funding received through NHS Charities Together we have continued to provide the following support during the year:
- **Training of 100 Mental Health First Aiders**
Supporting Online Mental Health First Aid training across STH. Participants will be educated on how to spot the signs of poor mental health and support someone in a crisis. Attendees will go on to become Mental Health First Aiders.
## • **65 Calm Rooms**
These rooms/spaces provide staff with a much needed opportunity to refresh and reenergise at times when it is difficult to leave the ward for a drink/food.
- **Additional Psychologist support for teams (18 months)**
Psychologist to work with teams as part of the Trust Covid 19 recovery plan.
## • **Schwartz Rounds**
A forum for hospital staff from all backgrounds to come together to talk about the emotional and social challenges of caring for patients. The Schwartz events offer a safe environment for staff to share stories, reflect, and support one another. They focus on the human side of delivering care. Schwartz rounds will play a key role in supporting staff mental health, reducing burnout, and recovering from the impact of the Covid19 pandemic.
## **Research**
During the year, the charity commitment to supporting clinical research has included approving support for the following projects:
- **Research targeting minimal residual diseases – Myeloma**
- The team has developed a new drug called Karonudib, which kills myeloma cells in the lab. Karonudib is a highly promising therapy for myeloma. In fact, the team believe that Karonudib may be able to completely get rid of all myeloma cells, including those that are
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 6
resistant to other cancer drugs. To test whether Karonudib can be used to get rid of chemotherapy-resistance cells, we need advanced, clinically-relevant models of myeloma. In this project, the team will test Karonudib to identify whether the drug can kill
chemotherapy-resistant cells in order to provide evidence that it can enter larger clinical trials.
- **Joint clinical and research nurse posts**
This funding aims to encourage more nurses into the Directorate of Integrated Geriatrics and Stroke Medicine (IGSM) by addressing the need to demonstrate clinical academic career opportunities within Nursing and enable patient recruitment to research. These roles combine a band 5 clinical nurse role with that of research nurse split 50:50 to enhance patient care and participation in research, improve the appeal of nursing, improve ward staffing and encourage university partnerships to increase graduate recruitment.
## **Arts in Health & Volunteers**
Charity funded artwork and music sessions brighten the hospitals and keep patients entertained to reduced feelings of stress and isolation. Despite a temporary break due to Covid19 the music sessions have resumed and the ward activities have begun again. The Charity also funded the ‘Pick Me Up Pages’ resource for patients and staff have enjoyed relaxing with the Staff art boxes. Arts & Volunteers Projects have included:
- **Music Concerts –** 12 concerts per month with 34 concerts delivered since they started in November 2021 – an average of 120 patients benefits from the concerts each month
- **Ward Activity Volunteers -** 185 sessions have taken place across 15 wards since the Ward Activities volunteer role was launched in November 2021 – 389 patients have benefitted from these sessions
- **Arts in Health Special Projects –** A jointly funded initiative with the Arts Council has provided the following: Staff Art Clubs, a voice project with the speech and language department and a creative café where young patients transitioning from child to adult services take part in weekly art sessions to develop their confidence
- **Sympathy cards -** sent to bereaved families with Forget-me-Not seeds – 1585 issued across 39 wards/departments

- **258 Active Volunteers –** 35 roles across 1 department, 24,125 volunteer hours logged, 19,306 pharmacy packages delivered, 7882 swab packs collated and 300kg of clothing distributed to patients
## **Dementia**
The Dementia Practitioners concentrate on four main work streams: **Education** , **Stimulation & wellbeing of people with dementia** , **Dementia Champions** , and the **hospital environment.** As a team they provide support and advice, create and distribute appropriate resources trust wide, work across departments and introduce links between staff and projects.

## **NHS Charities Together Stage 2 Funding**
Stage 2 of the NHS Charities Together money was to support community partnerships in recognition of the impact of COVID-19 on the wider community. We were the designated Lead Charity and working in partnership with South Yorkshire’s Community Foundation (SYCF) delivered the Community Partnership grants programme across the South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Integrated Care System. The projects the money supported were:
- Golddigger Trust – supporting young people with mental health needs
- Sheffield United Community Foundation - supporting people with cancer
- Age UK Sheffield - supporting people with dementia
- Age UK Rotherham - supporting OP in Rotherham to feel less isolated
- Creative Minds - supporting people with mental health interventions and educating providers to ensure the work continues once the grant expires
## **Gifts in kind**
The response from both local and national businesses to the pandemic, and their desire to support the NHS during this most challenging time was unprecedented. During the year the Charity received a donation of 18,000 beauty boxes from Birchbox with a total value of £630k. This allowed the charity to make a box available to all staff members within Sheffield Teaching Hospitals. Our thanks go to Birchbox for supporting us to make this small gesture of appreciation to during this challenging time.
## **Fundraising**
Sheffield Hospitals Charity raises funds to enhance the care and treatment of local patients and those who care for them. We work in partnership with a range of individuals, organisations, companies and charitable trusts and foundations to extend the reach of our work and maximise the difference we can make.
Our fundraising strategy and activities reflect our organisational values and are reviewed regularly to ensure they are meeting the needs of the organisation, whilst ensuring resources are used efficiently and ethically for sustainable income growth.
We work with professional fundraisers and commercial organisations. We employ a professional fundraising agency to register people in our weekly lottery, through public venues and street fundraising. All contracts and partnerships are subject to due diligence and close management. External partners receive regular training.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity is a part of NHS Charities Together. As a member charity we have the opportunity to benchmark our fundraising activity with our peers, discuss matters of common concern, exchange information and participate in conferences and seminars which offer support and education for our staff and trustees.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 8
We are committed to ensuring that fundraising is carried out in an ethical manner. Our policies and approach to fundraising standards are outlined below:
- We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator, comply with the Codes of Fundraising Practice and are committed to complying with the regulator’s Fundraising Promise. We take our responsibilities to protect vulnerable people seriously and follow the guidance on treating donors fairly, and make sure all our agency partners are fully aware of our policies.
- We have a vulnerable person’s policy and specify minimum and maximum age ranges to our agency partners, so that we never recruit new donors who are too young, too vulnerable or too elderly to consent.
- We give our supporters the opportunity to opt out of further contact as part of every approach for a donation.
- We do not share or sell data.
- We monitor the activities of our fundraising agencies by ‘mystery shopping’, to ensure that our agencies are adhering to standards and also to the approach that we have agreed.
- The privacy of donors is respected at all times. Donor records are confidential and held in compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and General Data Protection Regulations 2018.
- Donors have the right to see their own donor record and to challenge its accuracy.
- Donors and prospective donors will be treated with respect. We will honour any requests they make to:
- limit the frequency of solicitations.
- not be solicited by telephone or other technology.
- limit the amount or frequency of printed or online material that they are sent.
## **SHC Lottery**
Sheffield Hospitals Charity has operated a lottery for a number of years, in order to raise funds to help support the work of the charity. Sadly, the charity was a victim of a fraud perpetrated by an external provider of lottery services. The financial loss was recognised in the March 2020 Financial Statements.
Criminal charges were brought against a director of the external provider and the charity no longer works with or has links to the external provider or its directors.
The charity has carried out a thorough review of its processes and, through an abundance of caution, even more stringent security measures have been put in place concerning the handling of funds such that all sums generated by the lottery are now paid directly to Sheffield Hospitals Charity by the collection company. We are confident that there is no prospect of any such fraud being perpetrated against Sheffield Hospitals Charity in the future.
We wish to assure all of our lottery players, present and future, that the proceeds from any tickets purchased will benefit the charitable causes which we fight so hard to maintain and improve.

## **Complaints**
Our relationship with our supporters is very important to us and we monitor feedback and take complaints seriously.
When we receive a complaint, we endeavour to resolve it quickly, fairly and effectively. We can continue to improve the services we provide by listening and responding to the views of our supporters, partners and stakeholders and by responding positively to complaints. We aim to ensure that:
- Making a complaint is as easy as possible.
- We treat a complaint as a clear expression of dissatisfaction with our service which calls for an immediate response.
- We deal with it promptly, politely and where appropriate confidentially.
- We will respond in the correct way —for example, with an explanation, or an apology or information on any action taken.
- We will learn from complaints and use them to improve the services that we offer.
We are always sensitive to signs that may indicate that any individual is in vulnerable circumstances and needs support to make an informed decision. If we reasonably believe the individual lacks capacity to make a decision then a donation will not be accepted or will be returned if already made.
During the year the Charity received no formal complaints.

## Grant making policy
The Charity makes grants from its unrestricted and restricted funds. Many of the funds are earmarked for particular wards or specialties. These are overseen by Fund Advisers who can commit expenditure up to £5,000 under delegated powers.
Expenditure between £5,000 and £500,000 requires the approval of the Grant Investment SubCommittee. For expenditure over £500,000 the approval of the full Board of Trustees in meeting is required.
## Reserves policy
At the year end the charity held total funds of £15.5 million.
Included in this total are:
## **Permanent endowment funds: £1.5 million**
These are funds where the capital is held in perpetuity and invested to generate income; only the income can be spent for a specific purpose. These funds are excluded from reserves.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 18
## **Restricted funds: £6.3 million**
These are funds that are subject to legal restriction and do not form part of the free reserves. These funds cover all clinical areas of the NHS organisations and the Charity is working actively to ensure they are utilised in a timely manner for public benefit.
## **Designated funds: £4.1 million**
These are funds where the income has been received/designated for a specific ward, clinical condition or area and are earmarked for future spending; these funds are excluded from free reserves. These funds cover all clinical areas of the NHS organisations and the Charity is working actively to ensure they are utilised in a timely manner for public benefit.
The trustees consider the remaining unrestricted funds of £3.6 million to be the charity’s free reserves.
The Trustees aim to retain a sum of up to £1.5 million to cover potential unrestricted grant making and overhead expenditure for a period of twelve months. They recognise their obligation to ensure that income received by the Charity should be spent effectively and promptly in accordance with the funds’ objects. The charity free reserves have historically been used to support large capital appeals and charitable investment within the NHS in Sheffield. The availability of charitable projects of scale has been severely impacted by the COVID 19 pandemic but the charity aims to identify a new capital appeal within the next twelve months.
All other accumulated reserves are regularly reviewed as part of the development of longer-term expenditure policies and plans. In addition, all earmarked funds are routinely monitored in order to identify and review dormant balances.
## Investment powers
The investment powers of the Trustees are set out in the Articles of Association dated 11 October 2016.
## Investment policy and performance
The Trustees’ investment policy is to protect income from inflationary increases while maintaining capital growth in excess of the movement in the All Share Index in respect of the equity content of the portfolio. The Trustees also preclude investment in any part of the tobacco industry or pornography industry, although it is acknowledged that in the diverse nature of business ownership this may not be fully achieved.
The Investment Managers were granted discretionary management powers by the Trustees in January 2001. The total value of the investment portfolio at 31 March 2022 was £14.5 million and its performance had broadly equalled the various benchmarks set.

## Risk statement
The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:
- a six monthly review of the principal risks within the Risk Register and uncertainties that the Charity faces;
- the establishment of policies, systems, procedures and actions to mitigate those risks identified; and
- the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise.
Significant areas of risk for the Charity, following the implementation of suitable controls, include:
- major downward fluctuations in investment values. The Charity employs professional investment managers and the Finance and Performance Committee reviews investment performance on a quarterly basis. Investment strategy and policy are reviewed regularly and the Charity reviews its Investment Policy Annually.
- reduction in legacy income. The Charity has developed and implemented a Legacy Strategy and has also developed new fundraising products to mitigate reduced income from this source including the Sheffield Hospitals Lottery.
In all areas of risk the level of controls were reviewed and enhanced as far as possible. The Trustees will continue to review the risks on a six monthly basis and take appropriate steps to ensure that risks are mitigated.
## Pay policy for senior staff
Historically all Charity staff were employees of Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and were fully seconded to the Charity. All staff were, therefore, subject to the terms and conditions of service set out in the Agenda for Change framework for all staff directly employed by NHS organisations. The provisions of Agenda for Change negotiated nationally determined terms and conditions of all staff within the Charity.
Following the transfer of all staff to the direct employment of the charity on 1 April 2017 those staff employed under Agenda for Change retain the same terms and condition as protected by TUPE.
For all senior staff employed post 1 April 2017 the trustees assess and set remuneration based on the following principles:
- Ability to attract staff of the right calibre and experience
- Ability to retain such staff
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 20
- Affordability within the Charity’s financial resources
Salaries and conditions are considered in the context of the local market and our Reward Policy. There is no commitment to increase salaries or improve conditions on an annual basis. The Trustees look to balance affordability and the need to remain competitive.
## Delegated authority
The Trustees have established a clear Scheme of Delegation which sets down the authority delegated by the Trustees of the Charity to the Executive Director. It supplements the job description for the Executive Director and addresses a number of areas more specific to delegation to facilitate fully accountable, effective and efficient management of the Charity.
## Trading subsidiaries
Sheffield Hospitals Charity is the sole shareholder of a trading company, SHCT Trading Ltd (company number 6219138). Two Trustees and the Director of Finance and Business Process of the Charity act as Directors of the company, as noted above.
Its accounts and annual returns are filed with Companies House and it trades at the Northern General Hospital.
Neurocare (1997) Charitable Trust is the sole shareholder of a trading company, Neurocare Ltd (company number 02402212). The Director of Finance and Business Process of the Charity acts as a Director of the company, as noted above.
Its accounts and annual returns are filed with Companies House and it trades at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital.

## Trustees’ responsibilities statements
The Trustees (who are also directors of Sheffield Hospitals Charity for the purposes 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 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the parent charitable company and group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS102);
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware; and
- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and establish that the auditor is aware of that information.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## Independent auditor’s report
Independent auditor’s report to the Members and Trustees of Sheffield Hospitals Charity
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Sheffield Hospitals Charity (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and parent charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2022, and of the group’s incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when
the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 30
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the trustees’ report (incorporating the directors’ report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate and sufficient accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the parent charitable company’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
31 | Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. ; or
- the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 28, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance in accordance with those Act.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
- the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with management and trustees, and from our knowledge and experiences of the sector;
- we focussed on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including Charities Act 2011, Companies Act 2006, GDPR, employment and health and safety legislation;
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 32
- we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management;
- identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the group and parent charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by;
- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risks of fraud through management bias and override controls, we:
- performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
- tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
- assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and
- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
- reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees’ and other management.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and to the charitable company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members and its trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body and the charitable company’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## Notes to the accounts
## 1 Accounting policies
1.1 General information and basis of preparation
Sheffield Hospitals Charity is a charity and company limited by guarantee registered in England & Wales. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.
The Charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £000.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 38
1.2 Group accounting policy
The financial statements consolidate the accounts of Sheffield Hospitals Charity and all of its subsidiary undertakings (‘subsidiaries’). The results of the subsidiaries are consolidated on a line by line basis.
The company had taken advantage from the exemption contained within section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 not to present its own statement of financial activities in these financial statements.
The income and expenditure account for the year dealt with within the accounts of the company was £1,483k (2021 – £3,287k).
- 1.3 Income recognition
- **a)** All incoming resources are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities as soon as the following three factors can be met:
- i) entitlement - when control over the rights or other access to this economic benefit has passed to the charity;
- ii) probable - it is more likely than not that the economic benefits associated with the transaction or gift will flow to the charity;
- iii) measurement - the monetary value or amount of income can be measured reliably, and the costs incurred for the transactions and to complete the transactions can be measured reliably.
## **b)** Gifts in kind
Donated goods are included in income at the estimated value of the gift to the charity when received, based on the amount that the charity would have been prepared to pay had it been required to purchase them, with a corresponding entry in the appropriate expenditure heading for the same amount.
- **c)** Intangible income
No intangible income has been received in the current accounting period.
- **d)** Legacies
Receipt of a legacy is recognised when it is probable that it will be received. Receipt is normally probable when there has been grant of probate; the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate, after settling any liabilities, to pay the legacy; and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.
- **e)** Incoming resources from endowment funds
Under the terms of the endowments, incoming resources other than investment gains or losses are restricted and are allocated to the appropriate restricted fund.
39 | Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22
## **f)** Income from trading activities
Includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is exchanged for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
## 1.4 Expenditure recognition
The funds held on trust accounts are prepared in accordance with the accruals concept. All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party.
- a) Cost of raising funds
The costs of raising funds are the costs associated with generating income for the funds held on trust. This will include the costs associated with fund raising, trading activity, portfolio management and property management.
## b) Grants payable
Grants payable are payments made to third parties (including NHS bodies) in the furtherance of the funds held on trust's charitable objectives to relieve those who are sick. They are accounted for on an accruals basis where the conditions for their payment have been met or where a third party has a reasonable expectation that they will receive the grant. This includes grants paid to NHS bodies.
## c) Governance costs
These are accounted for on an accruals basis and represent the costs incurred in the organisational administration and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. This will include appropriate proportions of salary costs from the following trusts:
- Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
- Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust
- Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Foundation Trust
- d) Allocation of overhead and support costs
Overhead and support costs have been allocated between costs of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. Costs which are not wholly attributable to an expenditure category have been apportioned. The analysis of support costs and the basis of apportionment applied are shown in note 4.3. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.
## 1.5 Structure of funds
Where there is a legal restriction on the purpose to which a fund may be put, the fund is classified in the accounts as a restricted fund. Funds where the capital is held to generate income for charitable purposes and cannot itself be spent are accounted for as endowment funds. Other
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 40
funds are classified as unrestricted funds. Funds which are not legally restricted but which the Trustees have chosen to earmark for set purposes are designated funds.
The major restricted funds held are disclosed in note 10.2 and major designated funds are disclosed in note 10.3.
- 1.6 Fixed assets
- a) Capitalisation
All assets falling into the following categories are capitalised:
- i) tangible assets which are capable of being used for more than one year and have a cost equal to or greater than £5,000;
- ii) groups of tangible fixed assets which are interdependent or would normally be provided or replaced as a group with a total value in excess of £5,000 and an individual value of £250 or more.
- b) Valuation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation.
- c) Depreciation
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
||Years|
|---|---|
|Office and IT equipment|5|
|Leasehold improvements|15|
- 1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are shown at fair value at the Balance Sheet date.
- a) Property assets are not depreciated but are shown at market valuation. Full valuations, including site visits, are carried out by a professional valuer at five yearly intervals. The last such valuation was carried out during March 2020. Between valuations, the trustees make a best estimate of fair value based on available market data.
- b) Quoted stocks and shares are included in the Balance Sheet at mid-market price, ex-div.
- 1.8 Realised and unrealised gains and losses
All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise and allocated to the relevant fund. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and opening market value (or date of purchase if later). Unrealised gains
41 | Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22
and losses are calculated as the difference between market value at the year end and opening market value (or date of purchase if later).
## 1.9 Apportionment
Items of income and expenditure are apportioned on a quarterly basis to qualifying funds, as follows:
- a) Dividends, investment gains / (losses) and investment management expenses are allocated to funds in direct proportion to that fund's share of the total investment portfolio at the quarter end.
- b) Bank interest is allocated to funds in direct proportion to that fund's share of the total bank balance at the quarter end.
- c) Management costs are allocated to funds in direct proportion to the average balance of the fund in the quarter as a proportion of the total average balances.
The apportionment process is managed through individual control funds for each linked charity which sit alongside the underlying funds.
- 1.10 Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
## 1.11 Tax
The Charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of Schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
## 1.12 Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the Charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
## 1.13 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Charity has an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount can be reliably measured.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity Annual Report 2021-22 | 42
## 1.14 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short-term maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## 1.15 Stock
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Provision is made for damaged, obsolete and slow-moving stock where appropriate.
- 1.16 Employee Benefits (Incl. Pensions)
The charity operates two pension schemes, a defined benefit scheme for employees TUPED from the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust on 1 April 2017 and a defined contribution scheme for employees employed post 1 April 2017.
The defined benefit NHS Pension Scheme is an unfunded scheme therefore contributions to both schemes are expensed as they become payable.
## 1.17 Leases
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
- 1.18 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
- a) Support costs allocation
- Allocation of support costs is estimated based on resources used as detailed in note 4.3. Apportionment of costs is detailed in note 1.8 above.
