British Elbow & Shoulder Society

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2023

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

The trustees are pleased to present their report together with the British Elbow and Shoulder Society's Statement of Financial Activities for the year ended 31 March 2023.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

History aims and activities of the Society

The British Elbow and Shoulder Society was originally established as an unincorporated association on 28 March 1987 with the following aims:

1) To foster and advance the science and practice of elbow and shoulder care through scientific meetings, educational programs and by encouraging research.

2) To organise regular interdisciplinary scientific meetings.

3) To strive to standardise assessment, scoring of disability, and nomenclature relevant to the elbow and shoulder.

4) To improve quality of care by encouraging the national collection of scientific data and functional outcomes.

5) To function as an educational society to further learning through scientific meetings, educational fellowships, and both knowledge-based and skills-based educational courses.

6) To foster research through scientific meetings, fellowships and by encouraging research collaboration between members.

7) To cultivate international relationships in the field of elbow and shoulder care.

The Society became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation ("CIO") on 9 September 2020.

Review of activities and future developments

The Society holds an annual event comprising an instructional course and annual scientific meeting to which all members are entitled to attend. In the financial year under review, the four day instructional course and annual scientific meeting was held at the Liverpool ICC on 21-24 June 2022. The instructional course focussed on elbow and shoulder trauma in 2022 and covered such areas as the management of scapular fractures, the management of sterno-clavicular joint and acromio-clavicular joint injuries and the the management of humeral shaft fractures.

In June 2023, the instructional course and annual scientific meeting will be held at the ICC Wales in Newport and this year the focus is on sports injuries.

The Society has prudently built up significant reserves which were transferred to the CIO on 1 April 2021 and has the intention in the future of providing research grants or other forms of assistance in the furtherance of its aims and objectives. These reserves are shown in the brought forward total funds.

Public benefit

The trustees have taken the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit into consideration in preparing their statements on public benefit contained within this Trustees' Report.

The trustees confirm they have complied with their duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales

Benefits and beneficiaries

As stated above, in accordance with its charitable objectives, the CIO strives to support education, research and clinical excellence in the speciality of elbow and shoulder surgery. The CIO's ultimate beneficiaries are therefore patients, and benefits to patients are provided through advancing knowledge of, practice in and setting standards for the speciality.

STRATEGIC REPORT Achievement and performance The instructional course and annual scientific meeting

The instructional course and annual scientific meeting is the largest annual educational event that the Society organises and hosts. In June 2022, the event was held at the Liverpool ICC. Details of prizes awarded by the Education Committee can be viewed here https://bess.ac.uk/2022-prizes/.

Medical equipment companies attend the medical and trade exhibition which runs in parallel with the Annual Scientific Meeting.

In June 2023, the Annual Scientific Meeting will be held at the Wales ICC.

The BESS Elbow Update Symposium

The BESS Elbow Update Symposium took place on 3-4 October 2022 in Sheffield. The next such event will be held in Coventry in 2024.

Financial review

Introduction

This is the second full year that the Society has operated under its new CIO status (it previously operated as an unincorporated association for over 30 years).

Overall, the Society made a surplus of £xxx in the year. By way of comparison, in the year ended 31 March 2022, a surplus of £119,992 was generated. This reduction in the surplus generated year on year was due to increased conference costs: the annual scientific meeting was held in person for the first time post Covid in June 2022 whereas it had been held wholly online in the prior year, with much lower online set up and running costs.

Incoming Resources

Total incoming resources for the year ended 31 March 2023 was £625,366. As expected the income has returned to what might be considered historically normal levels with a full in person Annual Scientific Meeting being held in June 2022 in Liverpool. The total income generated in the prior year was £365,790.

The Society's two principal income streams are therefore membership subscriptions and the surplus generated from the annual scientific meeting:

Income from bank interest deposits was £1,045 in the year, higher than normal due to the higher rates of interest available in in bank savings accounts. The trustees will continue to consider other forms of investment in due course to maximise savings income.

Resources expended

Overall, total resources expended for the year ended 31 March 2023 were £604,106. This was significant increase on the prior year's activity when total resources expended was £237,856, an increase of £366,250. The main reasons for the year on year increase are:

In respect of the irrecoverable VAT charge in the Detailed Statement of Financial Activities, BESS makes both taxable and exempt supplies and is therefore "partially exempt" for VAT. Broadly, VAT on costs related (or ‘attributable’) to taxable supplies Annual Scientific Meeting activity) is recoverable whilst VAT incurred on costs related to exempt supplies (membership subscriptions) is irrecoverable. At the year end an adjustment is required (taking into account all the transactions in the year) to calculate the VAT which is irrecoverable and this is charged as an expense to the statement of financial activities.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review

Principal funding sources

The CIO therefore receives its funding from members in the form of annual subscriptions and from any surplus generated from running an Annual Scientific Meeting.

Current subscription rates may be viewed on the CIO's website at https://bess.ac.uk

Investment policy and objectives

The CIO's Constitution states that monies for investment shall be deposited or invested in the name of the CIO by the trustees in any investments permitted by law for the investment of Trust Funds under the Trustee Act 2000 https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/29/2001-02-01?view=extent&timeline=true

The Trustees may at any time and from time to time vary such investments for others of like nature. We have investments held on varying timeframes to benefit from the best interest rates available. We have sufficient short-term funds available to be realised within a short space of time to meet unforeseen commitments incurred by the CIO, such as legal, other consultancy or professional expenses.

The CIO's historic policy is for the funds to be deposited with a range if institutions so as to obtain best returns from bank interest. We have not engaged an investment adviser to date, although that is something the Trustees are considering.

The Trustees research available interest rates are compared with others in the marketplace to ensure they are competitive.

Reserves policy

The Trustees regard it as prudent to retain sufficient reserves to cover the costs of the Annual Scientific Meeting plus any future contractual commitments, and in addition covering about six months of operation expenditure under normal circumstances. On this basis, free reserves of at least £450,000 should be maintained.

The Trustees acknowledge that the CIO is holding additional reserves and there are a number of reasons for this as outlined below: - Increased staff costs with the need to professionalise under the new CIO structure and the recruitment of an additional staff member along with the need to rent occasional office space for the proper functioning of

the Society

Fortunately, the levels of reserves that Society holds, which are for the most part, readily accessible, are such that Society will be able to continue to operate effectively notwithstanding the current socio-economic uncertainties.

Going concern

The potential for disruption to the CIO from the pandemic, lockdowns, quarantine restrictions and social distancing measures has been considered by the trustees and a review of the finances undertaken accordingly. During 2022/23, the trustees actively reviewed the conference budget on a regular basis to assess any changes in income or expenditure and our financial resilience in the face of further disrupted revenues and activities.

Membership income has remained broadly stable. We have worked hard to provide our members with support, guidance and alternatives to the key benefits from membership, including the Annual Scientific Meeting and to date this has proved successful. Course delivery moved online in summer 2021 as it had in the previous year, with positive feedback from the delegates, and the Trustees are confident that the Annual Scientific Meeting can operate successfully on that basis if needed in the future. A full in person Annual Scientific Meeting was held at the Liverpool ICC in June 2022 and the current plan is for a full in person Annual Scientific Meeting to be held at the ICC in Newport, Wales in June 2023.

The trustees are satisfied that the CIO's income and demand for services are broadly stable, and can be delivered in an effective way to meet the needs of the members.

BESS has cash reserves and has no requirement for external funding. The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the BESS has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, therefore, there are no material uncertainties over the Charity's financial viability. They continue to consider the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate in preparing the annual financial statements.

COMMENCEMENT OF ACTIVITIES

The application from the British Elbow and Shoulder Society to the Charity Commission to become a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) was approved with the Charity Commission on 9 September 2020.

Due to issues relating to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic at that time, the Society was unable to obtain a working current bank account with its banker of 30 years, NatWest plc, until April 2021 and therefore continued to operate via its former structure, as an unincorporated association, until 31 March 2021. This accounting period ending 31 March 2023 therefore represents the second full year of operating as a CIO and the first financial year post Covid where a full in person annual scientific meeting was held.

The CIO became registered for VAT on 1 April 2021.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of British Elbow & Shoulder Society

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of British Elbow & Shoulder Society ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can 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 matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Computer Equipment - 20% reducing balance

Taxation

No corporation tax liability arises on ordinary membership activity and primary purpose trading.

Fund accounting

The Society is not in receipt of any donations or legacies which need to be operated as separate funds.

Income comprises subscriptions received from members or generated from the running of an annual conference (the Annual Scientific Meeting) and is set towards the general objectives of the Society and as such is unrestricted.

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
