## **TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024** 

The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 October 2024. 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s constitution, the Charities Act 2011 and the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their own accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards for Smaller Entities (FRSSE) (effective 1 January 2015). 

## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS** 

Registered name: EMICS (East Midlands Immediate Care Scheme) CIO 

Registered Charity No: 1188852 

Principal Address: The Lodge 2 Pasture Lane Barleythorpe Rutland LE15 7EQ 

Trustees (at 31 October 2024): Dr T Gray Dr B Coyle Dr J Inman Dr P Holden Mrs M Boothroyd 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

**Governing Document:** The CIO was established by a charitable trust deed on 1 April 2020. 

**Corporate Structure:** The Charity has continued to operate as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) since its effective formation on 31 May 2020. The CIO is managed by the Board of Trustees who act in the best interest of the members, and other stakeholders, of the Charity and ensured that all the required legal formalities are met. 

**Trustees:** The proposed efforts to identify skills gaps in the Trustees Board and recruit more Trustees did not materialise but this is something which is being addressed. The Board is also facing up to the problem that the Chair and Strategic Lead have less time available to commit to the Charity. It is recognised that as the Charity becomes more complex to run, the skills and experience of the Board and the Management more generally need to be extended. 

**Risk Management:** The Trustees have continued to assess the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems and arrangements have been put in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. These arrangements include purchasing appropriate insurance protection and operating suitable clinical compliance systems.

## **STRATEGIC CHANGES** 

As was forecast in last year’s Trustees report, the Trustees had to carry out a review the management of the Charity, how the organisation was run and operated on a day-to-day basis and how any changes would be funded. The key drivers for this review were that the Chair and the Strategic Lead as the two senior Trustees/Operational Management Volunteers had decided that they needed to cut back on the amount of time they had available to support the Charity. It had also become clear that the growing complexity and compliance requirements were increasing the demand on their time and knowhow. 

As a result, the Trustees decided that it had become necessary for the Charity to recruit and employ a full time Operations Manager, who had expertise in managing the clinical and compliance elements. In addition, the Manager would be responsible for procuring and managing the inventories of drugs, consumables, PPE, equipment etc. This Manager commenced work in April 2024 and the Trustees are encouraged by the impact he has had. 

This is the first time in EMICS’s history that it is no longer managed and run by volunteers. To make this change possible there have been consequences in relation to how the Charity’s income is generated. The additional costs of having an employee needed to be covered by generating more income. The Trustees therefore engaged on a part-time basis two experienced contractors to run the business side of the Charity and to develop the income streams and to grow awareness of its activities. Several marketing projects (including re-branding, new website and corporate videos, improved digital marketing, improved PR and media activity, significant increases in grant applications etc) have been undertaken by these contractors. As a result, there is a growing awareness across the East Midlands of EMICS and the first signs are evident of a growth in income, particularly in grant income. 

As was highlighted last year, the Trustees are very conscious of the need to ensure that assets that were acquired with charitable funds are being fully utilised. They are continually reviewing asset usage and the need to demonstrate value for money. Therefore, any potential new clinicians and some of the lower-level responders are being focused on responding in the Fast Response Vehicle (FRV) and working on a shift-basis with clinical colleagues. The reality is that a two-tier responding structure is evolving, with high responders using their suitably equipped own cars and others in the FRV. It is possible that some under-utilised assets will be sold. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

In the year ending 31 October 2024, EMICS doctors responded to 954 emergency call outs from EMAS to assist their front-line staff and to join other emergency services personnel. EMICS doctors were first on scene in some 15% of cases. Most of these callouts were to category 1 or 2 graded emergencies, which meant that they were related to life threatening situations. Some 10% involved children. Once again, we can confidentially say that EMICS clinicians have saved lives,  prevented life changing injuries, reduced hospital stays and  assisted the NHS more generally. 

At the end of the year, the Trustees implemented their plans and individual agreements, with each doctor, to ensure that each clinician responds to a minimum level to justify the equipment allocated to them. By meeting these minimum requirements, they can also maintain their clinical and operational competence. 

Our responding levels in 2023/24 were unfortunately below previous annual averages. The major reason for this performance related to the demands being placed on the doctors in their day-to-day work, which has hindered the time they have available for volunteering. These pressures have also 

EMICS Accounts 2023-2024 

- 5 - 



reduced our ability to recruit new doctors, happily since the year end we have been able to add four new doctors to our roster. 

The pressures in the NHS have also caused a delay in our ability to implement the planned change for EMICS to include advanced paramedics in our responding teams. Fortunately, since the year end, it appears that the compliance environment related to this objective has been relaxed and we can foresee that we will be able to introduce multiskilled teams in our FRV based responding. 

During the year we were able to acquire as planned the FRV with help of a grant from  local Masonic groups. They have also generously funded the Vehicles operating costs for a year. As a result, the FRV, with its enhanced equipment, has been used by various doctors throughout the year. With the recent relaxation of the paramedic compliance issues, we can now see that the planned introduction of shift-based working is possible. This will increase  the level of responding and deliver better value for money than previous methods. 

The year also saw the Charity being awarded several Restricted Grants, from the likes of BASICS, the Leicestershire and Rutland Masons, the Leicester Community Fund, The Fifty Fund, and the Coop Dividend Community Fund. These monies were used to acquire PPE, some equipment including the FRV itself, drugs and consumables, and contribute to the employment costs of the Operations Manager. Some of these grants have been carried forward to the 24/25 year. In addition, EMICS received 12 unrestricted grants which have been used to fund operating costs. The Trustees are grateful to all these Trusts and Charitable Foundations for their valuable support. 

On 31 October 2024, EMICS achieved the significant mileage stone of a 40[th] Anniversary. Whilst the celebrations were kept low key, they were used to generate more funds and to recognise that over 4 decades that the Charity had treated some 50,000 patients. The Anniversary also saw EMICS and some of its clinicians being awarded a Lifetime Achievement award from the East Midlands Trauma Network. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

During the year, the Charity saw a 79% increase in total income compared to the previous year. In fact, the level of income was the second highest in the organisation’s history. The efforts put into grant applications were the key driver of this performance. Pleasingly income from donations, legacies, fundraising and other activities and interest was some 21% above last year despite the poor economic environment. 

The Trustees continued to improve the assets available to treat patients, with £45,276 spent on equipment (£7,649), PPE (£12,343) and the FRV (£25,284) and all funded by restricted grant income. Some £36,610 of fully depreciated assets were written off during the year. 

As highlighted above, the cost base of the Charity increased significantly during the year with the recruitment of the Operations Manager and the increased marketing and fundraising expenditure. 

Overall support costs increased by £74,770 in the year. Operational costs increased by £5,745 with increases in expenditure on drugs and consumables and equipment servicing as the main causes. 

However, these operational costs also include extensive insurance premiums and expense payouts to high-responding doctors to contribute to their mileage, car insurance and training needs. The Trustees continue to monitor and review expenditure to ensure value for money, to maintain the Charity’s clinical operations and to invest in its future income generation activities. 

EMICS Accounts 2023-2024 



As a result of the capital expenditure highlighted above, the overall cash position of the Charity weakened by £41,951 during the year. The total cash balances at the 31 October 2024 were £61,617, of which £5,628 was carried over Restricted funds and £20,000 was in a protected designated fund. The Trustees having reviewed the potential costs of closing the Charity, however unlikely, decided to prudently set aside this Designated Fund. Additionally, the Trustees have decided to freeze capital expenditure and sell some under-utilised assets to effectively subsidise working capital to sustain the Charity. 

## **OUTLOOK** 

The Trustees are pleased with the outcome of the strategic changes, highlighted above, and as a result they plan to maintain them, albeit recognising that there are challenges ahead. One of the major challenges relates to the availability of the two executive Trustees and the need to find potential successors, with both the knowledge that a Charity of this type requires and the time available to carry out their duties. Various alternative options are being considered. 

The other major challenge relates to generating adequate income to maintain the organisation with its increased cost base, particularly given the demands being placed on charitable donors, generally. The Trustees are confident that the investments being made in income generation will bear fruit. 

## **APPRECIATION** 

I would like to place on record, my appreciation for all the individuals (volunteer clinicians and supporters, donors, grant providers, the employee and contractors, other Trustees and other colleagues in EMAS) who make EMICS a success and enable us to save lives and prevent life changing injuries.

**NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED)** 

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024 

Once assets are fully depreciated they are written off and removed from the accounting records. 

## **Taxation** 

The Charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund Accounting/Grants Receivable** 

Unrestricted funds can be, and are, used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the Trustees. 

The Trustees have also set aside a ‘Designated Fund’ from unrestricted reserves for the potentially specific purpose of covering any possible closure costs should this unlikely event occur. 

Grants with no specific conditions attached are treated as unrestricted. Where grants have conditions attached they are treated as restricted and held in specific accounts. As the conditions are met the funds are released and used to fund the arising transactions, which can be capital expenditure or on-going costs, either charitable activities or support costs. Un-utilised restricted funds can be carried over from one year to the next. 

## **Investments** 

Investments are bank ‘saving’ accounts. 

## **Value Added Tax** 

The Charity is not required to register for VAT. All expenses include irrecoverable VAT where charged by suppliers. However, every effort is made to use VAT regulations, where applicable, to have VAT removed from the cost of acquisition.
