The financial statements 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.

Structure, Governance and Management

The full name of the charity is International Christian Medical and Dental Association (UK) CIO known also as ICMDA (UK) CIO is a registered charity (number 1188743).

The ICMDA (UK) Trust was a registered charity (number 1059750) operating under a trust deed dated 31 October 1996. This charity transferred all the Trust activities to the new incorporated charity, ICMDA (UK) CIO, registered with the Charity Commission 25 March 2020, with the intention that the CIO take over the operations of the Trust as an incorporated entity. The Deed of Novation was effective from 3 April 2020, and the cessation of the former Trust was registered with the Charity Commission 15 May 2020.

Trustees

The trustees who have served during the year under review were:

Marinus Verweij (Chairman)

Deborah Lanz (Secretary)

Vijaykumar Aruldas

Isaac Lewis (joined 25 March 2020)

Howard Lyons

Henry Thiessen

Kevin Vaughan

New trustees are appointed by agreement of existing trustees from persons of suitable background, acquainted with the work of the charity, in support of its objectives and activities. The induction and training of new trustees includes familiarisation with ‘The Essential Trustee: What you need to know, what you need to do’ published by the Charity Commission (CC3 July 2015). No outside or related body is entitled to appoint trustees.

Relationship with the International Christian Medical and Dental Association

The charity acts as Trustee for cash and investments held in the UK for the benefit of the International Christian Medical and Dental Association (ICMDA). The Trustees are responsible for the overall management and control of the charity.

To promote close working between the ICMDA board and the Trustees of the UK CIO, the charity has ensured a significant overlap between the two. ICMDA board members Vijay Aruldas (Treasurer) and Henry Thiessen (Chairman) and Howard Lyons are all Trustees of the UK charity. However, there remains an intention that there is a majority of UK charity trustees who are not ICMDA board members.

Statement of the Trustees’ Responsibilities

The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). The charity trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• 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;

• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business;

• prepare statements in accordance with the notes set out in the financial statements;

• comply with the charity’s governing document;

• the Charity’s Act 2011 and;

• 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 (the “Charities SORP”).

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Public Benefit

The Trustees have given due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission, including public benefit guidance. The CIO supports national and regional training courses and events for doctors and dentists all over the world ranging from a two-year international postgraduate diploma in family medicine through residential conferences, to evening or half-day seminars to weekly global webinars on a wide range of topics. Almost all of these events are open to anyone working in the medical and dental professions. We also support the distribution of literature and resources on a wide range of social, ethical and religious issues for the benefit of the wider public, and the medical and dental professions in particular.

Objectives and Activities

The objectives of the charity are to promote and advance the study and general knowledge of medical and dental science, particularly where these concern Christian faith and ethics. The means of achieving these overall objectives include:

• support for the organisation of conferences;

• providing a conduit for national Christian Medical and Dental organisations to exchange information and experience in the field of medical science, where these concern Christian faith and belief;

• examining and testing changes in medical thought and action by the principles of the basis of belief;

• promoting discussion of the problems which from time to time arise for Christians studying and practicing medicine and dentistry and

• promoting friendship and co-operation amongst Christians in the medical and dental professions throughout the world.

Achievements and Performance

The charity has continued to support the work of the International Christian Medical and Dental Association (ICMDA). 2020 has been an unusual year due to the impact of the COVID pandemic which led to a fall in donation income, placed severe restrictions on staff and fieldworker travel and led to the cancellation of many national and regional conferences and events from March onwards.

Staff and volunteers reacted to this by completely revising our strategy to fit an online environment. UK staff Peter Saunders (Chief Executive) and Josh Mills (Executive Assistant) worked primarily from home and a new Training Administrator (Bhaskar Tiwari) was appointed to assist Santhosh Mathew (Head of Training). Travel grants to fieldworkers and conference bursaries and grant were substantially reduced.

Some of the achievements in the year included:
