Vvhere the availability of NHS funds allows, major projects and purchases are financed jointly with the controlling NHS Trust. FQLVH operates a policy whereby it does not finance any item or projecl which would commit the charity to an ongoing funding requirement since there is no guarantee of future income to cover such costs. These are considered to fall under the heading of 'revenue' expenditure and are considered to be the responsilility of the controlling NHS Trust. They would include such items as ongoing maintenance contracts for equipment purchased and Ihe employment of staff. The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

FRIENDS OF LEWES VICTORIA HOSPITAL TRUSTEES. REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Financial review Reserrfes policy With the exception of the Beatrice Braban endowment, the net assets of the Charity are held as unrestricted funds other than a proportion which may, at Ihe discretion of the Trustees, be held in a period investment The Trustees recognise that the policy should reflect the ongoing and long-term nature of the charity and, as such, have carried out a review of the likely costs of running the charity. Following this review, the Trustees consider that investments should be held at a level to ensure that they would have adequate income to maintain the running of the charity. The Trustees are actively working with the management of Lewes Victoria Hospital and with the Trusts contracted to run services at Lewes Victoria to establish the utilisation of unrestricted funds over and above the requirement that is necessary to maintain the running of the charity Investment Pollcy Prlncipal Objective The principal investment objective of the FOLVH is to maintain a balance between income and capital growth of funds bequeathed or donated and to ensure funds are readily available to meet projects which it decides to support. The income requirement should not erode the potential to maintain or increase the capitsl value in real terms. Investment Management The investment portfolio is managed on a fully discretionary basis by Charles Stanley & Co Limited (Charles Stanley) who act as the Trustees nominee. An investment risk assessment has been undertaken in conjunction with Charles Stanley which has concluded that a MediumlLow risk approach should be followed. Funds are held within a broad portfolio of investments and cash deposits in order to spread risk and allow a quick response to market changes. An investment manager from Charles Stanley attends meetirtrgs of the Finan￿ Committee to review the investment portfolio and risks, present investment management reports and provide valuations. Beatrlce May Braban Endowment Funds are applied for the benefit of the hospital in accordance with the Will of Beatrice Braban, which requires the capital sum to be invested and only the income used for the benefit of the hospital. Investments are managed as part of the charity's overall investment portfolio but ring fenced and kept separate. The value of the investments and the income arising from them are separately reported. Decision Making and Implementation The Finance and Risk Committee (comprising the Chair, Treasurer and other members of the Executive Committee) meets ￿lce a year to review how investments are managed within the overall framework of the investment policy, in conjunction with the investment manager from Charles Stanley. The financial position of the charity is reviewed at each Executive Committee meeting. General At least £500,000 in investments or cash which can be realised on giving no greater than 3 months. notice without significant penalty is maintained. Ethlcal Restrictions Investments in companies with significant involvement with the tobacco, gambling or arms industries are avoided wherever possible. Reporting Charles Stanley provides online facilities to allow the Treasurer to view details of the investment portfolio, its value, dividends paid and management charges incurred. Statements of account, valuations and other reports are sent regularly to the Treasurer throughout the year. Trustees receive quarterly investment perforniance reports. Investment Statements and reports as required for examination of the annual accounts and the Annual Report are also provided.

FRIENDS OF LEWES VICTORIA HOSPITAL TRUSTEES, REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Rlsk Management Trustees collectively manage risks through the Executive Committee and in accordance with the Risk Management Policy. A register of risks is maintained and Trustees aclively review the major risks which the charity fa￿S at each Finan￿ and Risk Committee and Executive Committee meeting. If required, outside professional experts are engaged to advise how mitigation of risks that fall beyond the knowledge and experience of Trustees should be managed. The Trustees have also examined other operational and business risks fa￿d by FOLVH and confirm that they have established risk management systems to mitigate significant risks. Trustees consider that maintaining the level of the free reserve5, professional management of its investment portfolio combined with quarterly reviews of financial performance will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions.
