## **FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024**
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31st March 2024. The Trustees have adopted the provision of Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statements 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).
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Management**
Friends of PICU is a registered charity, CIO No. 1183373 and is governed by its Constitution which was adopted on 13th May 2019.
## **Trustees**
The Trustees are responsible for the overall governance of Friends of PICU and meet regularly throughout the year. The number of Trustees cannot be fewer than three. The Recruitment and Selection Process is the responsibility of the Trustees, using a recruitment process approved by all Trustees. Trustees are bound by a signed Code of Conduct. All Trustees give their time freely and no Trustee remuneration is paid.
During the financial year ended 31st March 2024, no Trustees stepped down and a new Trustees was welcomed, Mrs Verity Saxon who became a Trustee on 4th March 2024 bringing the Trustee numbers to five.
## **Delegation**
The Trustees delegate responsibility for the day-to-day administration of the charity to the Operations Manager who liaises regularly with the Chairman and all Trustees.
## **Risk Management**
The Trustees continue to be mindful of risks to which the charity may be exposed and continue to monitor systems and procedures in place to manage any risk. Adequate insurance policies are in place to cover this.
## **OBJECTIVES AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES OF FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **Objectives and Activities**
Our Charity Objects are to relieve the suffering and facilitate the care of patients and families of the Paediatric Intenstive Care Unit (PICU) at University Hospital Southampton, either directly for patients and families or indirectly through supporting the work of the PICU and its attendant services, by providing or assisting in providing equipment, facilities and services not routinely or immediately available in the regular provision.
Friends of PICU contributes to every part of the care that the unit provides and no patient will pass through PICU without being helped by equipment, services and resources that Friends of PICU has purchased and donated, or benefiting from the additional nursing training and education that the charity pays for.
## **Public Benefit**
The Charity provides a benefit to the public through the provision of support to the children, their families and the PICU by providing vital equipment, resources, nurse training and education that the charity pays for.
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. The activities of the charity are available to all beneficiaries connected with the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit.
## **Volunteers**
Friends of PICU receives the support of volunteers who provide help and support to the fundraising and administration activities of the charity, and who give their time freely. As a small charity, the support of the volunteers is very much appreciated and helps the charity to achieve its aims and objectives. During the year the charity was delighted to welcome new volunteers.
## **Achievements for the Year**
Friends of PICU, like all charities, has had to manage the post-Covid recovery and the economic headwinds of the cost of living crisis. Having already established ourselves as a CIO, professionalising our organisation has made us more resilient to these pressures. We have a strong management team, supported by HR and bookkeeping services and have expanded our Trustee base so that we have adequate numbers, but also an expanded skillset. We have also improved our banking arrangements thanks to the help of our Treasurer so that our funds are safer and more productive. We plan to expand trustee numbers further with our next aim being to recruit someone with governance experience. Transforming the charity into a more businesslike enterprise has been very successful. This has not been at the expense of the character of the charity though, which maintains its community feel. We still benefit enormously from individual acts of support and generosity. That sense of community participation is never felt more keenly than at our inaugural Christmas Party at the Hilton at The Ageas Bowl Hotel, where families that have benefited from PICU can come together to remember and celebrate this unique community.

## **FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024**
Of course, raising funds and spending that money wisely is our number one aim. In this regard Friends of PICU is delighted to have been able to continue its high level of support to PICU, and has continued to provide, or fund, much support to PICU including:
- Funding of Family Liaison Sister position
- Nurse training - New Lighting for cubicles
- Bereavement resources
- Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Machine
- Ultrasound equipment
- Arts and Crafts distraction materials
- Family Support Fund - AMBU Bronchoscopy screen and A-Scope
- ECMO monitoring equipment - Retrieval trolley - Retrieval ambulance fund
We would like to thank all our community and corporate supporters for their contributions enabling us to provide this support. In particular we would like to thank Haskins Garden Centre, Hall & Woodhouse, Barratt David Wilson Homes, Matchtech and Zurich Community Trust.
We continue to purchase equipment that has supported some of the most significant improvements in PICU. The ECMO services continue to expand with our support, Southampton’s leading role in ultrasound education and provision is aided with a further ultrasound machine and the expanding role of bronchoscopy in PICU has been facilitated with another Ambuscope screen. We have in the past supported training and education, but have now put this on a more formal basis by providing a recurring sum for nursing training for which there is a lack of regular support. We would like to particularly thank The Kelsey family for this. The Family Liaison post goes from strength to strength and is something that we are tremendously proud of. It is a role that we knew was needed, but still couldn’t have anticipated its positive impact.
## **Future Plans**
The accommodation refurbishment has been reactivated and is an important aim for this year. Having been on the brink of doing this, we were forced to reconsider because of emerging cost pressures which relate to estate issues beyond our control. However we have a new, more modest project which will deliver improvement, but with better value for money.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Principal Funding Sources**
During the financial year, the charity received donations and these resources allowed the charity to continue to deliver its objectives and expenditure is in line with the financial donations received.
## **Reserves Policy**
The charity has undertaken a calculation of the average four-month running expense cost, in order to determine a reasonable reserve policy and balance. The outcome is that a reserves balance of £20,000 is considered to be appropriate but is subject to regular review by the Trustees.

## **FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FRIENDS OF PICU**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2024 which are set out on pages 5 to 16.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Act. I 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 material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
- the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.

## **FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2024**
## **1. Accounting policies**
## a) Accounting convention
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)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
## b) Going concern
The accounts have been prepared under the going concern basis. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
## c) Fund accounting
Funds held by the charity are either:
- Unrestricted funds: These are funds that can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees.
- Designated funds: These are funds which have been designated by the Trustees for a particular purpose.
- Restricted funds: These are funds that 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.
## d) Income
Voluntary income is recorded as received.
Tax reclaims from Gift Aid are included at the same time as the gift to which they relate where possible. All other claims are included periodically during the year.
Investment income is recorded as received.
## e) Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. It includes any VAT paid. Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in those cost categories. Staff costs are split on a proportion of time spent on activities - 70% on raising funds and 30% on charitable activities. Certain other costs which are attributable to more than one activity are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of the proportion of resource allocated to those activities.
- f) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation Tanglible fixed assets are stated at cost, being purchase price plus any incidental costs of acquisition, less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at a rate calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:
Equipment - 20% straight line

## **FRIENDS OF PICU**
## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2024**
## **10. Unrestricted Funds (continued)**
## **Landings Monitoring System for patients on ECMO support**
The funding of a Landings Monitoring System for patients on ECMO support. The system provides a continuous measurement of oxygen transfer, venous oxygen saturation and arterial sturations, monitoring the patient's haemoglobin and provides haemodynamic data on the flow of blood, negative drainage pressures and pre and post oxygenator pressure through the ECMO circuit to the patient. In addition, in respiratory ECMO, the Landings Monitor provides essential information about the interdependency between native lung and membrane lung. As well as offering the ability to detect early deterioration in the patient's critical states, it is also a source of continuous information for the bedside team and assists in important clinical decision-making to benefit the patient directly.
## **Central Monitoring System**
The funding of a Central Monitoring system (including back-up printer) which will enable observations from all 16 bedspaces to be visualised together at the staff desk. With the addition of more cubicles to the PICU space, the Central Monitoring System allows doctors stationed at the desk to maintain an overview of the whole unit when writing notes etc. The Central Monitor alarms can be seen and heard at the desk and within the open areas of the PICU allowing staff to easily identify where help is needed and respond quickly to help in the cubicles.
## **The JK PICU Nurse Training & Education Fund / Education & Training Fund**
An Education & Training rolling yearly funding for the PICU nursing team and allied health professionals employed/affiliated on PICU, for PICU specific education and training courses at local, regional and national levels related to individual job plans, and to enhance and develop individuals knowledge and skills with the aim of improving the delivery of evidence-based, world class care to all PICU patients.
## **AMBU Bronchoscopy Screen & A-Scope**
The funding of an AMBU Bronchoscopy Screen and A-Scope, a totally portable piece of equipment that can be used in a variety of locations including the PICU Retrieval Ambulances. The bronchoscope allows the clinician to enter the patients lungs via the breathing tube. The Scope can be directed deep into the patients' lungs suctioning secretions, foreign objects etc. The sscope also provides high definition images of the patients' lungs allowing the clinician to make a clinical diagnosis of complex respiratory conditions. This is an exceptional piece of equipment which is championed by the paediatric consultant from ENT, respiratory, surgery and PICU.
## **X-Series Monitor, Defibrillator & Ferno Pegasus Trolley**
The funding of equipment specifically used during flight retrievals by the PICU Retrieval Team by either Air Ambulance or fixed wing aircraft, or for use on the PICU Retrieval Ambulance.
## **Breas Clearway 2 Cough Assist Machine**
The funding of a device used to augment a patient's cough when the patient is not strong enough to clear secretions. The equipment will benefit the patients by helping them clear secretions when they are unwell with a respiratory illness. This can help them recover sooner, or if used early enough, prevent them from getting as sick. This may result in a shorter hospital stay and less severe illness.
## **Portable Ultrasound**
The funding of a portable ultrasound machine offering an enhanced imaging experience to aid multiple procedures. As well as being used in PICU, the ultrasound will also be used by the Retrieval Team. Using modern bedside imaging technology enables PICU to deliver high quality paediatric intensive care right at the point of need.
