North East Immediate Care
Trustees' Annual Report
Year Ended 31 March 2025
The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Objectives and Activities
North East Immediate Care is a charity set up by a group of healthcare professionals with the following aims:
For the public benefit, the protection and preservation of human life and the relief of sickness for the public benefit within the geographical area served by the North East Ambulance Service by:
-
providing and assisting in the provision of high-quality pre-hospital medical treatment through a network of volunteer healthcare professionals,
-
educating and training medical practitioners and the general public in emergency and pre-hospital medical care
North East Immediate Care covers the whole of the North East Ambulance Service area from Teesside in the south to the Scottish border in the north and from the east coast to Cumbria border in the west.
Background
North East Immediate Care is a charity based in the North East of England which provides volunteer enhanced care support for the North East Ambulance Service (NEAS). The charity is affiliated with the British Association for Immediate Care Scheme (BASICS) as the immediate care scheme for the whole of the NEAS region. This is an area spanning some 3230 square miles from the Scottish border in the north, to the Yorkshire border in the south, and from sea in the east across to Cumbrian border in west. The ambulance service dispatches our volunteer doctors and paramedics to support ambulance crews care for critically ill and injured patients.
Our volunteer responders have undergone additional pre-hospital training and respond in marked response cars or in their personal vehicles (equipped with lights and sirens) at the request of the ambulance service. The charity also has a team of volunteer supporters who are involved with various aspects of running the charity.
North East Immediate Care is run entirely by volunteers, with no salaried positions. Every doctor, paramedic, and supporter within the charity gives their time, skills, and expertise freely to ensure patients across the North East receive the highest standard of emergency care. This commitment means that every pound donated goes directly towards maintaining response vehicles, specialist — equipment, and training not administration costs. All support makes a direct and measurable difference, enabling highly trained professionals to assist patients in the North East of England.

Annual Summary of Activities
The 2024-25 financial year was marked by significant progress for North East Immediate Care (NEIC), a registered charity committed to supporting the North East Ambulance Service (NEAS) through the provision of volunteer doctors and paramedics delivering enhanced pre-hospital care. The year saw operational enhancements, strengthened community partnerships, increased fundraising success, and continued growth in both number of volunteers and equipment, all contributing to the aims of the charity to help those in need in the north east of England.
A major operational development during the year was the relocation of charity's first marked response vehicle, on loan from Triple9, to Coulby Newham ambulance station. This move was carried out in consultation with NEAS operational leads and was specifically designed to improve coverage in the south-east of the NEAS area. Coulby Newham, as a location, presents a significant advantage for regional response capabilities, and the station now supports two active responders, with a third expected to be operational by the end of 2025. The importance of this expansion was recognised when NEIC secured funding through the Teesside Charity's 'Pitching for Purpose' event, which directly contributed to the ongoing running costs of the Coulby Newham vehicle.
The organisation's vehicle fleet expanded in December 2024 following an offer of a second marked response vehicle, from Triple9 on loan. This offer was accepted with gratitude, Cramlington was chosen as a strategically appropriate base for the new vehicle. With support from Northumberland Fire and Rescue Service, who granted permission for the vehicle to be stationed at their headquarters, a location also used by NEAS and Northumbria Police, the second vehicle is now operational, providing coverage in the northern part of the region. Two responders are currently utilising this vehicle, with three additional responders undergoing final preparations for deployment.
In parallel with these developments, in January 2025, the charity secured a grant of £18,000 from BASICS HQ & the HELP Appeal, which facilitated the purchase of a Zoll X-Series Advanced defibrillator. This high-grade piece of equipment was subsequently placed in the Coulby Newham response vehicle, representing a substantial upgrade to the organisation's resuscitation and patient monitoring capabilities.
Community engagement and public fundraising played a central role in sustaining NEIC's operations during 2024-25. The charity was chosen as the designated beneficiary at the North East Accountancy Awards in July, an event that resulted in a series of donations from regional businesses and professionals. Earlier in the year, a primary school in Newcastle selected NEIC as its charity of choice in memory of a former pupil. The charity's presence at the school's event included a display of one of the marked response vehicles and discussions with families about the nature and impact of NEIC's voluntary emergency care work.
The Great North Run, in September, served as a particularly important milestone in the year's fundraising calendar. Several runners participated on behalf of NEIC, raising vital funds toward vehicle maintenance, fuel and other running costs, which continue to constitute a significant portion of the organisation's overall expenditure. NEIC's fundraising footprint was further expanded through donations received from the Stockton Stage Society following their performance of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and through support from the Tyne and Wear Community Fund. In addition, local business engagement, such as the donation from Thorpes of Gosforth, exemplified grassroots support for the charity's mission.
NEIC also strengthened its institutional ties during the year. In October 2024, representatives were invited to participate in the NEAS annual staff conference, attending both the north and south events. This provided an invaluable platform for the charity to inform colleagues about its contribution to frontline care delivery, and to share findings from the NASMED/NEAS review conducted earlier in the year. These interactions not only affirmed NEIC's relevance to the wider emergency services community but also enhanced mutual understanding between volunteer responders and full-time NEAS personnel.

Year Ended 31 March 2025
On the financial administration front, NEIC achieved a notable milestone in November 2024 by becoming officially registered with HMRC for Gift Aid. This development has allowed the charity to claim an additional 25% on eligible donations, thereby improving its ability to maximise the value of public contributions and increase financial sustainability without imposing additional costs on donors.
NEIC's commitment to volunteer support and clinical excellence remained a defining feature of its operations throughout the year. Monthly training sessions, including focused evenings on advanced tools such as portable ultrasound, underscored the charity's emphasis on continual professional development. In addition, the charity made active use of social media to spotlight the dedication of its volunteers, all of whom give their time in challenging conditions and without remuneration.
Volunteer appreciation was a recurring theme across NEIC's communications, particularly during National Volunteers Week in 2025. The charity used this opportunity to highlight the invaluable role its personnel play in delivering life-saving interventions, often in time-critical or high-risk scenarios. Moreover, its participation in community events such as Ingleby Barwick's SirenFest and its commemorations of Firefighters' Memorial Day and national VE Day further illustrated NEIC's commitment to honouring the broader emergency services community.
In conclusion, the 2024-25 year was characterised by strategic growth and operational maturity. Through the deployment of additional vehicles, acquisition of advanced clinical equipment, and deepened community engagement, North East Immediate Care significantly enhanced its capacity to support the North East Ambulance Service. The organisation's volunteer model remains at the core of its value proposition, an embodiment of professional commitment and civic altruism, that continues to make a measurable difference across the region. With further responder recruitment and enhanced regional coverage anticipated in 2025, North East Immediate Care is well positioned to build upon its achievements and extend its life-saving impact in the years to come.
Financial Review
Income during the period was £32,678 (2024 - £49,736) of which £18,000 (2024 - £40,690) was restricted grants and £14,678 (2024 - £9,046) was from unrestricted donations and fundraising. Revenue expenditure was £20,400 (2024 - £10,533) including depreciation of £11,861 (2024 - £7,249) giving a surplus of £12,278 (2024 - £39,203). Of this surplus, £23,058 was invested in capital equipment (Zoll X-Series Advanced Defbrillator/Monitor) with a bank balance of £6,715 and money owed out of £480.
Restricted funds at 31st March 2025 were £Nil and capital assets were £44,626 leaving £6,855 in free reserves.
The trustees believe that £1,000 would be a sensible number for free reserves which would give them enough for equipment repairs or if they needed to pay an insurance excess.

Plans for the 2025-26 Financial Year
For the 2025-26 financial year, North East Immediate Care is planning for continued growth and development across both clinical and non-clinical aspects of its operations. Building on the progress made in previous years, the organisation remains focused on strengthening its services and support for the North East region.
At the heart of North East Immediate Care are its volunteer responders and the dedicated volunteer supporter group. These individuals form the core of the organisation, and their contributions are vital to its success. In the year ahead, trustees and senior clinical responders will continue to guide and support the development of the volunteer team. In line with the charity's founding principles, all responders will remain unpaid volunteers. The organisation will maintain its commitment to high-quality training by delivering regular educational and continuing professional development (CPD) sessions, hosted in partnership with local university facilities and featuring both internal and external subject matter expert speakers.
Our newer clinical volunteers will soon become independent/solo responders. This will increase the charity's operational capability and thereby enhance the support we provide to the North East Ambulance Service. Our new responders are already experienced clinicians in their own right and will further enhance our training capabilities within our current team and for the next group of trainee responders.
To support the expanding team, there will be a continued focus on ensuring that every responder is equipped with the necessary resources, including personal protective equipment. Alongside formal training sessions, informal training will also be encouraged at the start of operational shifts. This approach will require investment in additional training equipment across both operational bases.
Looking ahead to the latter part of 2025, the organisation plans to explore the addition of a 4x4 vehicle to its fleet. While the current Volvo V60 response cars serve many areas well, there are regions in the North East that present logistical challenges, particularly in adverse weather. The inclusion of a vehicle with off-road capability, even on a seasonal or loan basis, would significantly enhance North East Immediate Care's ability to support emergency services in remote areas.
Financial sustainability remains a priority. The charity has been successful in securing support through the national BASICS/HELP Appeal grants scheme and intends to apply again when the next funding round opens. Community fundraising will also play a key role. Eight individuals are set to represent the charity in the Great North Run in September 2025, and their efforts are greatly appreciated. The addition of a new volunteer supporter with professional fundraising experience will further strengthen North East Immediate Care's capacity to identify and pursue additional funding opportunities in the coming year.
Public engagement will continue to be a core part of the organisation's activities. Educational visits to local community groups and businesses will be ongoing, as will collaboration with other charitable bodies and support for NEAS and other emergency services at public events, conferences, and training days.
The upcoming financial year will also see further development of the charity's IT systems. With the support of a skilled volunteer IT consultant, the organisation is continuing to improve how it manages vehicle checks, training records, and shift documentation. These improvements will streamline internal processes and enhance the charity's ability to report effectively to NEAS.
As the number of volunteer hours increases and IT systems become more robust, the organisation also hopes to collaborate with NEAS on audit and research projects designed to improve outcomes for patients and the wider public.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Year Ended 31 March 2025
1. General Information

2. Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
3. Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported.

3. Accounting Policies (continued)
Income
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income, any performance related conditions attached have been met or are fully within the control of the charity, the income is considered probable and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
Donations and legacy income is received by way of donations, legacies, grants and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Where legacies have been notified to the charity but the criteria for income recognition have not been met, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity, being the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market.
Investment income is included when receivable.
Income from charitable trading activity is accounted for when earned.
Income from grants, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates:
Costs of raising funds comprise the costs associated with attracting donations, grants and legacies and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis, as set out in the notes to the accounts.
Tangible Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The costs of minor additions or those costing below £500 are not capitalised.
10
North East Immediate Care
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Year Ended 31 March 2025
3. Accounting Policies (continued)
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Equipment - Straight line over 5 or 6 years
Impairment of Fixed Assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
Financial Instruments
The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
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.
Accrued income and tax recoverable is included at the best estimate of the amounts receivable at the balance sheet date.
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.
Creditors
Creditors 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 are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Taxation
The company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
