Health Services Research UK Trustees' Report for the year ended 31 March 2023

The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Health Services Research UK (HSR UK) is a self-supporting membership organisation dedicated to the promotion of health services research in policy and practice. HSR UK has existed for about 17 years, originally hosted within NHS Confederation and later Universities UK. In March 2019 HSR UK became an independent charity registered with the Charity Commission (no 1182643). The assets of HSR UK were formally transferred to the new charity from Universities UK in August 2019, therefore the year ended 31 March 2023 covered by this annual report was the third full financial year for the charity. It is based at the central London offices of the Nuffield Trust, which generously provides desk space and HR and IT services in kind, in return for which we are pleased to give the Trust complimentary membership and several complimentary conference places to our annual event.

The collective voice of UK health services research, HSR UK connects researchers with health service leaders, managers, clinicians, and policy makers to drive improvement and innovation in the NHS and social care. HSR UK’s membership consists of organisations which have an interest or involvement in health services research – many are university departments, centres, or units; some are NHS or care organisations; others include think-tanks, research funders, consultancies and third sector organisations. HSR UK is governed by a board of up to 16 trustees, who are appointed by the members at its annual members’ meeting, in accordance with the Articles of Association of the charity. Trustees may be co-opted by the board prior to appointment.

In terms of structure and management in 2022/23, the core team remained at 3 members of staff including the Project Officer and Administration and Communications Officer, both part time. However, when HSR UK’s Executive Officer stepped down, the trustees took the decision to expand that role and refocus it as Director of HSR UK. A new Director was recruited and took up post in June 2022. The member of staff in the Administration and Communications Officer role moved to be Membership Officer in December 2022 and the Project Officer left the organisation in January 2023. Recruitment for both vacant roles happened in early 2023.

STATEMENT ON PUBLIC BENEFIT

The objectives and activities, and achievement and performance sections of this report clearly set out the activities which the charity undertakes for the public benefit. The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission in determining the activities undertaken by the charity.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Trustees have reviewed the major and financial risks that impact on the work of the charity. The systems that have been established enable the Trustees to review and take necessary steps to lessen these risks.

Health Services Research UK Trustees' Report for the year ended 31 March 2023

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

HSR UK exists to promote health services research in policy and practice in the United Kingdom. It has three main objectives:

To convene and connect producers and users of health services research in the UK, and build links internationally, across Europe and globally.
To support evidence-based policy and practice in the NHS, helping to mobilise health services research, build capacity and make an impact
To Influence policy leaders and funders to improve the profile and landscape of health services research, enabling it to thrive and develop.

In 2022/23 HSR UK focused on delivering its core activities.

Conference

HSR UK held its first face to face conference since the pandemic in July 2022. This event was structured and ticketed in line with pre-pandemic events, but the hybrid programme included both an in person and a digital offering, enabling people to choose how they wished to attend. The conference had five plenaries. Both the plenaries and the event session held in the main hall were live-streamed. The conference also included 19 research discussion session, 17 interactive workshop/learning and development sessions and 3 rapid fire poster presentation sessions. All sessions that were in the main lecture theatre were live-streamed and all the research presentations were recorded. This recorded content was initially made available to delegates via the event’s digital platform and then subsequently hosted on the HSR UK website. 54% (68) of attendees accessed the online platform in advance of the conference and 88% (110) planned to watch sessions afterwards.

Following the success of our Future Leaders in Health and Social Care Research awards, we introduced a new award for 2022 which was for Innovation in Inclusion. These awards, given to 3 research teams, celebrated and recognised research teams which had taken significant steps towards improving inclusion in their research.

340 people registered to attend for 3 days in total - 286 in person and 54 online. 62% (208) of attendees were from HSR UK member organisations, rising to 78% (42) of online attendees. Delegates came from academic institutions, provider organisations, NGOs/think tanks, and government agencies, in line with previous events. The evaluation was positive, with 76% (97) of in person attendees and 64% (7) online attendees rating the conference as either ‘excellent’ or ‘very good’ overall. This is a lower percentage of attendees than the 2021 online event, where 82% (49) of respondents rated the conference as either ‘excellent’ or ‘very good’ overall, however many fewer attendees completed the evaluation in 2021.

The evaluation identified several activities which were positively received: the range of topics; the format and type of sessions including rapid fire poster and research discussion; the plenaries; opportunities to connect and network in person; the online platform and access to online content; that the event was welcoming to PhD students. It also identified areas for improvement, which included: inclusivity; the workload for presenters; the optimal length of a presenter slot; understanding the additional value of the online content; the amount of content on offer for virtual delegates;

the on-site experience of poster viewing and presenting; providing sufficient seating. This evaluation then informed preparation for the 2023 conference.

Projects and Events

Following from our successful series of webinars on Improving Inclusion in Research, delivered in partnership with the Nuffield Trust, the Health Foundation and the King’s Fund, HSR UK submitted a funding proposal to The Health Foundation for a follow-up piece of work to generate evidence on the experiences of disadvantaged and marginalised people within health services and social care researcher communities and to identify interventions which could improve their experience. This proposal was agreed in December 2022 and the project scheduled to start in April 2023.

HSR UK also held a series of meetings with the Health Research Authority (HRA) following the publication of the Research Governance report to discuss how we might better feed the experiences of health services and social care researchers into developments the HRA are undertaking. The findings were also accepted for publication in the academic journal BMC Public Health.

Our Research Engaged Boards project also progressed through 2022-23. This project seeks to understand how NHS trusts use health services research in decision making and how we can support and enhance that process. During this year we established a partnership with NHS Providers, to enable us to better understand the needs of NHS trusts. As part of this partnership, we plan to survey boards across a range of provider trusts about how they use and engage with health services research, followed by a round-table with provider board representatives to draw out further themes about the opportunities and challenges of NHS provider boards being effective users and producers of research.

In March 2023 we held an invite-only event at the University of York where we brought together over 80 delegates drawn from a mixture of research and policy backgrounds to discuss the health and social care workforce crisis. We held 15 themed discussion sessions over the course of the event, each convened by a chair who opened with a brief presentation setting the context for the discussion and then chaired a 90 minute discussion. The main points of the discussion were captured by early career researchers who attended the event as rapporteurs. The forum was funded by Health Education England, Health Education England, and the University of York.

There are various follow up activities planned for 2023-24. One theme which came out from the event was the opportunity to work more closely to make connections with, and influence, NHS practitioners and decision makers rather than policy makers; this group were poorly represented at the event but have a key interest in the state of the evidence and how it might inform decision making around workforce.

Membership

There are currently 38 organisational members and just over 4000 individuals on our mailing lists. We built on the successful implementation of the HSR UK mentoring programme in 2021/22 by running it again from January 2023. Ten health services researchers from member organisations were paired with mentors from different member organisations. Both mentees and mentors valued the experience, especially the opportunity to build a network across the research community. The scheme will be running again in 2023/24.

Health Services Research UK Trustees' Report for the year ended 31 March 2023

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

This has been a successful year for HSR UK as we transition to a more stable operating model, based around delivering our core activities alongside developing new projects and funding sources, such as the health and care workforce forum. The impact of the pandemic continued in 2022, and delivering a hybrid conference which met the needs of both face to face and online delegates was challenging. 2022 also saw many changes within the core staff team, giving rise to variable capacity across the year. The annual event contributed to making the charity financially stable and ensured that HSR UK continued to engage with and support the health services and social care research community. HSR UK continued to grow and develop new activities and relationships with key stakeholders.

Financially the charity was able to remain stable, however with a growing expenditure on staffing costs, we will need to pay close attention to controlling our costs to avoid running down our reserves in 2023/2024. We will also need to review our capacity to pursue activities which rely solely on our internal resources, such as the Research Engaged boards project.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year, the Charity’s income totalled £211,381 (2022: £125,370) of which £188,381 (2022: all) was unrestricted income. In addition to this, reserves of £90,780 (2022: £97,068) were brought forward from the previous year. Resources expended totalled £213,970 (2022: £131,658) of which £21,800 (2022: £5,850) were from restricted grants and £192,170 (2022: £125,808) were from general funds and conference income.

Total funds carried forward to 2023/24 were £88,191 (2022: £90,780) of which £6,875 (2022: £5,675) were restricted and £81,316 (2022: £85,105) were unrestricted. Conference registrations and membership fees of £26,745 (2022: £32,001) invoiced during the year were deferred to next financial year.

HSR UK’s reserves policy is set out below. It is reviewed annually by Trustees when they review and approve the charity’s annual report and accounts before they are presented at the annual members’ meeting and then submitted to the Charity Commission. It takes account of guidance issued by the Charity Commission on setting and reviewing a charity’s reserves policy (CC19).

RESERVES POLICY

The purpose of our reserves policy is to ensure that HSR UK can continue to operate sustainably in the face of unexpected circumstances (such as drop in income or increase in costs which was not foreseen) and to enable HSR UK to take advantage of new opportunities consistent with its objectives when they arise. To that end, we seek to maintain a minimum reserve in unrestricted funds equivalent to six months core funding for HSR UK’s office costs – staff, accommodation and basic operating costs – and for any other liabilities which would arise in the event that the charity ceased operations (for example, redundancy or other costs). In the financial year 2022/23 that amount was £60,000. At the end of financial year 2022/23 the final balance of unrestricted funds was £81,316 (2022: £85,105)

Health Services Research UK Trustees' Report for the year ended 31 March 2023

As HSR UK expects to expand its activities in coming years, this minimum reserve will be kept under annual review and adjusted accordingly. Reserves above this minimum level are held to support such expansion as opportunities arise, particularly where they might require initial investment of resources.

PLANS FOR FUTURE

In 2023-24, we plan to continue to improve our conference offer to members and delegates as we slowly return to pre-pandemic levels of activity. We expect to complete the Research Engaged boards project in and our next project focus will be delivering the Careers Inclusion project. We will also explore opportunities to build on the work HSR UK has started around workforce, how we can strengthen our international partnerships and explore what events and training we might offer

Health Services Research UK Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2023

1 Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP FRS 102 1A), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK GAAP.

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

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102 1A) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

b) Public benefit entity

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

c) Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern.

Key judgements that the Trust has made which have a significant effect on the accounts include estimating accrued income for gift aid claim.

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.

d) Income

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 membership fees related to future years is deferred to the year to which they relate.

e) Donations of gifts, services and facilities

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 accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

Health Services Research UK Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2023

1 Accounting policies (continued)

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of 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.

f) 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 funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.

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

g) 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 the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Costs of raising funds relate to the costs incurred by the Trust in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

h) Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction, support and administration of each activity, is apportioned to Research and Education in full.

i) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £250 . Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Where fixed assets have been revalued, any excess between the revalued amount and the historic cost of the asset will be shown as a revaluation reserve in the balance sheet.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

1 Accounting policies (continued)

j) 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.

k) 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.

l) 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.
