UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Introduction from the President and CEO

During the past year, Faculty members have continued to deliver excellent work in the face of an ever-evolving landscape shaped by global public health challenges, ongoing health system reform and mounting workforce pressures.

Amidst these complexities, the Faculty has remained committed to delivering for our members and the public health profession by upholding the highest standards of practice, sharing knowledge and expertise, advocating in the interests of the public health workforce and promoting policies that give populations the best possible chance of a long and healthy life.

Taking office at the Faculty’s AGM in July, Tracy has been leading the Faculty Board in delivering on our Organisational Strategy 2025–30 to ensure the Faculty remains a leading voice for public health across the UK and globally. Particular areas of focus for Tracy’s Presidency so far have included building on our workstream on workforce wellbeing, establishing the role of public health in a changing UK health system and deepening our engagement with national and international partners, including the World Health Organisation. Throughout this work runs a recognition that the strength of public health lies in our diversity. Diversity of profession, of thought, and of background. Parity of esteem sits at the heart of the Faculty’s mission, because the unique value of public health is that it needs all of us.

Of course, none of the work of the Faculty would be possible without the support of all of you, our extraordinary members who so generously commit their time and expertise to work with the Faculty and support the public health profession. We are grateful to those who volunteer their time to perform roles such as Faculty Trustees, Advisers, Examiners, Special Interest Group and Committee members. Across the 25 committees reporting to the Board, approximately 350 members actively contribute to the work of the Faculty; advancing public health knowledge, supporting education and training, and strengthening our profession. And outside of this, the contribution all of you make to improving and protecting the lives of communities right across the world.

Our education and training function is at the heart of the Faculty’s mission. In 2025, 107 registrars joined the public health training programme, including 13 entering the second year of dual public health and general practice training. Following feedback from candidates, a major achievement during 2025 was the migration of the Diplomate examination to seven assessment centres across the UK, with an additional centre in Hong Kong, allowing 246 candidates to sit the exam. In parallel to this work, and following the 2024 report , the Faculty’s Fair Exams Task on differential attainment in public health examinations and Finish Group has overseen the implementation of recommendations to close unfair attainment gaps in Faculty examinations, supported by updated guidance on reasonable adjustments and improved monitoring processes.

During the past year, the Faculty also launched a comprehensive review of the public health specialty training curriculum, inviting feedback from registrars, educators, employers and external stakeholders. This work will help support the development of the next generation of public health leaders, with the draft curriculum due to be published for consultation in autumn 2026.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

A major area of focus during 2025, and one which will continue alongside the Faculty’s Organisational Strategy to 2030, is workforce wellbeing. Regional wellbeing champions are now in place across the UK and have published a series of Workforce Wellbeing Spotlights, which bring together insights, suggested actions and useful resources on key issues impacting workforce wellbeing. With the public health system across the UK evolving, the Faculty has joined with cross-system partners to provide input and guidance on the public health role within Integrated Care Boards in England, and has contributed to the Government’s consultation on the ten-year workforce plan.

The Faculty has also maintained a strong advocacy role during the past year, hosting major events on public mental health, climate and health, and poverty, and leading collaborative work with a wide range of partners. We refreshed our discussion paper on the role of the NHS in delivering prevention , explored the implications of artificial intelligence for public health practice, published a new framework to guide interactions with commercial actors, and ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliamentary elections we set out a Call to Action for a healthier, fairer and more productive Scotland.

Our climate leadership continued as we were once again invited to be an observer at COP30, launched a new Climate Change and Sustainability Toolkit for registrars, published the MPOWER+ Framework to tackle the public health harms of fossil fuel dependency, and maintained our own carbon-neutral status.

Delivering on our global leadership role, the Faculty signed a new collaboration agreement with the World Health Organisation, strengthened our international Special Interest Group activity, and delivered webinars on antimicrobial resistance, violence prevention and public health in peacebuilding.

The achievements captured in this report reflect the shared accomplishments of our members and our small but dedicated Faculty staff team. Together, we continue to deliver on the Faculty’s mission of ‘Better Health for All’ and push forward the science and art of public health practice.

In the year ahead, we will continue to work collectively to ensure public health is well positioned within new and emerging systems. The breadth of skill and contribution that public health professionals bring has never been more vital, and at a time of rapid change, global uncertainty, and deepening inequalities, our collective voice and expertise matter more than ever.

You have our commitment that we will continue to advocate for the importance of public health, to support and protect our workforce, and to champion the unique, multidisciplinary approach that defines public health. We thank all of those who have contributed to the Faculty’s work during 2025, including our members and cross-system partners, and we look forward to continuing to work together in the year ahead.

Education and Training

----- Start of picture text -----
Education and Training ambitions for 2025
Monitor and review the new arrangements for the Diplomate examination
2025 saw a significant change in the delivery of the Diplomate (DFPH) examination,
with candidates now required to attend one of seven assessment centres in the UK
(with an additional centre in Hong Kong).
Roll out additional training for the new ePortfolio system
As the new ePortfolio system nears completion, a number of national and regional
training events were held in 2025 to support registrars and education leads in the
training programmes.
Deliver a major conference for public health registrars
With Faculty support, public health registrars hosted a highly successful conference
in Glasgow in May 2025, and we have committed to supporting future similar events.
----- End of picture text -----

During 2025, the Education and Training team delivered on core areas of work to ensure that public health registrars continued to be supported by the Faculty throughout their training. The team also supported several related processes including Out of Programme Training requests, the FPH registrar project scheme, and the portfolio route (formerly called CESR) for those seeking entry onto the Specialist Register with the GMC.

The team engages with a range of bodies including the General Medical Council, the UK Public Health Register, Medical Royal Colleges, and statutory education bodies to do its work.

In 2025, there were 107 new registrars enrolled onto the public health training programme, including 13 registrars entering the second year’s intake of dual public health and general practice training. The Faculty recommended 60 registrars for CCT and we received and assessed 2 GMC portfolio pathway applications.

As part of our commitment to our public health registrars, the Faculty supported a major conference for registrars held in Glasgow in May 2025. The event was hugely successful, and the Faculty thanks the incredible team of registrars who organised and coordinated the event.

Exams

The Faculty manages two separate exams for public health registrars and other candidates.

The Diplomate (DFPH) examination is usually taken in the first half of the training pathway.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Having been delivered entirely remotely since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic with online invigilation delivered by TestReach, the Faculty took the decision in late 2024 to migrate the delivery of the DFPH exam to distributed test centres across the UK, with one additional centre in Hong Kong.

This was in response to feedback from candidates and the regional training programmes. In 2025, 215 candidates sat this exam over two sittings.

The Final Membership (MFPH) exam is usually taken in the second half of the training programme and this exam returned to a face-to-face format in 2022 following the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. There were five sittings of the MFPH exam in 2025, with 117 candidates sitting exams in London, Liverpool and Manchester.

In total, 30 examiners were involved in the preparation, marking and standard-setting for theDFPH exam and 19 examiners were involved in the MFPH exam. We are immensely grateful to these members for their contribution to the Faculty’s work and the public health profession.

Strategic review of examinations

During 2025, the Faculty established a Strategic Assessment Review Group to consider improvements and changes to the current FPH assessment framework. This group consists of representatives from across the educational system; one of the group’s early actions was the launch of a survey to seek views from key stakeholders in January 2026.

A fair training culture in public health

Following the publication of the Faculty’s 2024 report on differential attainment in FPH exams the Faculty established a Fair Exams Task and Finish Group to lead on the 27 recommendations identified in the report to close gaps in attainment. This work helped inform the migration of the DFPH exam to in-person centres in 2025. We also set up a registrar-led reasonable adjustments working group, updated our guidance around exams and reasonable adjustments, and improved data collection to allow for better monitoring and continuous improvement.

Curriculum review

The Faculty’s curriculum review was launched in September 2025, with members and external stakeholders invited to feedback on the current specialty training curriculum and how it could be updated to ensure that it supports the development of the next generation of public health leaders.

The initial consultation survey closed in December 2025 and was followed by a series of workshops aimed at key stakeholders including registrars, educators and employers to allow them additional input to the curriculum. This feedback was analysed by the review working group to draft a new version of the curriculum, due to be circulated in autumn 2026 for further consultation and comment.

----- End of picture text -----

Senior appointments

FPH works to maintain standards in public health by reviewing and approving consultantlevel job descriptions and by providing external assessors for interview panels.

2025 saw a reduction in public health recruitment activity, most notably in England. Across the UK, the Faculty approved 165 job descriptions in 2025, compared to 213 in 2024, 223 in 2023 and 204 in 2022. During the year, 67 different FPH Members and Fellows sat on 167 Advisory Appointment Committee (AAC) interview panels in their role as Faculty Assessors (External Advisers in Scotland). The Faculty held three training days for members sitting on AAC panels to ensure continued capacity for this vital role, with 34 Members and Fellows attending this training. Throughout 2025 the Faculty conducted further analysis of public health recruitment trends across the UK and will be looking to publish these findings in 2026. In December 2025 FPH hosted a webinar for registrars to both explain and further explore the current market for consultant posts

CPD

Following major changes to CPD requirements introduced by the Faculty in 2022, and the subsequent launch of the refreshed CPD diary within the members’ portal, CPD is now firmly re-established as a key requirement of FPH membership. In the 2024/25 CPD year, 1752 members made a submission via the CPD diary and feedback on reflection was provided to 129 members.

Revalidation

During 2025, the Faculty acted as the Designated Body for 115 members, made 13 positive revalidation recommendations to the GMC, and held 108 appraisals. In 2024 the Faculty published the outcomes of an externally commissioned review of the revalidation service we offer to members. The remaining recommendations from that review were completed during 2025.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Workforce and wellbeing

The Faculty’s focus on workforce wellbeing strengthened in 2025, and FPH regional wellbeing champions are now in place for each region of the UK. The initiative aims to raise awareness of systemic factors affecting the public health workforce’s wellbeing, promote relevant resources, gather insights, and advocate for improved job quality and reduced work-related stress. In 2025 the Faculty’s wellbeing champions published a series of Wellbeing Spotlights which are short, practical briefings to support the wellbeing of the workforce. Each spotlight focuses on a key issue affecting staff wellbeing, bringing together insights, suggested actions and useful resources. They are designed to raise awareness, encourage reflection, and support collective and local action.

Workforce capacity

The expansion of the public health training programme was maintained in 2025 with 107 enrolments onto the programme. FPH works with system partners to promote the role of public health specialists across all parts of the public health system which, in England in particular, continues to undergo change. In 2025 the Faculty published its workforce strategy and established a working group focussed on the role of public health in Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and the emergent public health system. The Faculty also provided a detailed response to the government consultation on the ten-year workforce plan.

Public Health Accredited Practitioner Masterclasses

The Public Health Accredited Practitioner Masterclasses are an introduction to the basic concepts of public health for those who are new to the topic, as well as serving as a refresher course for experienced practitioners.

In response to the pandemic, the masterclasses were successfully moved to an online environment during 2020, and online delivery has continued since then. The programme continues to be popular, and during 2025 the Faculty delivered 54 modular workshops for nine commissioners in England and Wales with 1350 public health practitioners attending.

Task and Finish Group on the role of public health

In partnership with the Association of Directors of Public Health and the Department of Health & Social Care, the Faculty led on new collaborative guidance for ICBs setting out how local authorities should provide specialist healthcare public health advice to ICBs. Following this, FPH established a cross-sector Task and Finish Group to examine the role of public health in the emerging systems in the UK and this group will report in 2026.

Healthy Working group

In 2025 FPH established a Work and Health Specialty Group in partnership with the Faculty of Occupational Medicine and the Society of Occupational Medicine. The group, which has a UK-wide focus, aims to share, advise and comment on national and local work and health policy and initiatives, facilitate education for members, and advocate the value of occupational medicine within public heath training courses.

Key events in 2025

The Faculty hosted a number of events during the course of 2025 including a major joint conference on public mental health with the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a conference on climate and health held in London, and a one-day event on poverty to complement the Poverty SIG’s work . The Faculty also worked with cuts to disability and health-related benefits UKHSA to co-design its March 2025 Conference as well as delivering many other learning events across the year.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Consultation responses

Throughout 2025, the Faculty worked with our members in SIGs and Committees to provide informed, authoritative responses to government consultations across the Four Nations.

We responded to formal consultations on a range of topics, including alcohol licencing, the national cancer plan, transport, housing, poverty and the cost-of-living crisis. Many of the responses are available to view online here.

Special Interest Groups

The Faculty’s 40 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) cover a vast range of public health topics, delivering outstanding public health advocacy, with an increased focus on cross-SIG collaboration and joined-up working. Key areas of work during 2025 included drug policy reform, climate and health, commercial determinants of health, poverty, transport, smoking and vaping, and sexual and reproductive health. SIGs continue to be a critical way for the Faculty to develop public health advocacy and for members to utilise their experience and expertise to contribute to policy areas they are interested in.

Climate and Health

The Faculty’s commitment to supporting public health action on climate and health continued in 2025, with key work including the development and delivery of a COP30 Strategy, adding a health voice to COP30 and reiterating the health harms of climate change and fossil fuels. As part of this, FPH delivered an event on the MPower+ framework at COP30, hosted a post-COP30 debrief event for FPH members, and advocated alongside key partners for international and national action on the climate emergency. A Climate Change and Sustainability Toolkit, developed in 2025, aims to support registrars in developing knowledge, expertise and leadership skills around the intersections between environmental and public health. In 2025 the Faculty maintained its carbon-neutral status, first achieved in 2024.

Major policy and advocacy outputs during 2025

A healthier, fairer and more productive Scotland

Ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliamentary election, the FPH developed this call for action for the next Scottish Government to set out plans to create a healthier, fairer and more productive Scotland. There are seven calls to action, which collectively advocate for an ambitious programme for change to improve health and wellbeing for all, reduce social and health inequalities, and protect environmental sustainability.

Discussion paper on the NHS’ role in prevention

The Faculty’s Health Services Committee led the development of a collaborative paper that proposed prevention priorities for the NHS and identified facilitators and barriers relevant to embedding prevention in the NHS.

An opportunity to seize or a threat to mitigate? UK public health specialists’ views on artificial intelligence (AI)

This major research report, alongside a useful summary, was developed by the AI and Digital Public Health SIG which presents findings from a cross-sectional survey of 188 public-health

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

professionals registered with the FPH. The report is the first exploring the UK public health workforce’s capabilities, hopes, concerns, and willingness to engage with AI professionally. It sets out strategic recommendations for FPH, public health organisations, and FPH members to support public health practitioners to implement equitable, responsible, trustworthy, and ethical AI.

The MPOWER+ Framework for fossil fuels and public health

The MPOWER+ Framework adapts the WHO’s MPOWER tobacco control model to tackle the public health impacts of fossil fuel dependency – now widely recognised as a major driver of the climate crisis. Grounded in the Commercial Determinants of Health (CDoH) approach, the framework outlines seven key domains to support a just, equitable energy transition and provides a structured, evidence-informed tool for the public health community to act.

Data for everyone’s health; optimising public health intelligence: challenges, opportunities and ways forward

In this policy paper , the Faculty’s Information and Intelligence SIG define public health intelligence, outline barriers to realising its potential, and make eight recommendations to government and the health and care sector. The paper emphasises the need for strategic analytical leadership at all levels of the health and care sector, focussing on the ‘big picture’ of improving the public’s health and understanding the transformative potential of data and analytics to achieve better health as well as healthcare.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Trustees Report: Financial Review and Governance

Treasurer’s Report 2025

I am pleased to present my fourth report as the FPH Treasurer and report that the Faculty achieved an unrestricted surplus of £226,970 in 2025 before investment gains.

When compared to 2024, there is an increase in income across membership fees, exam fees and the journal of public health.

Unrestricted costs have increased when compared to 2024, largely this is owing to an increase in exam costs, as well as legal and consultancy costs.

Total investment gains on unrestricted funds were £83,608. These gains were in line with expectations.

In 2021 the trustees agreed a programme of improvements to our systems and transferred £485,000 from unrestricted reserves to a designated Systems Development Fund. In 2024, a further £32,000 was transferred from unrestricted reserves and the remaining £23,997 from the Business Development Fund. A total of £423,561 has been spent, the balance of £ 65,096 remains, these funds will be used for internal systems development.

Key objectives set out in the Faculty Financial Strategy have been achieved. A prudent budget has been set for 2026, and I have confidence that the improvement of the financial health of the Faculty will continue.

Financial summary

In looking at our financial statements, the most important figures to consider are those in the columns headed ‘unrestricted funds’. These are the sums that are fully available for FPH to use for our operational activities. The other types of funds we report in our accounts have various restrictions placed on them, and they cannot be used for everyday activity. Some of these funds, resource our prizes whilst others relate directly to grant-based projects.

The unrestricted surplus before investment gains (see below) was £226,970 this compares with an unrestricted surplus in 2024 before investment gains of £181,587.

The total surplus for the year before investment gains was £180,836 compared with a surplus of £145,709 in 2024. The overall surplus after investment returns amounted to £264,444 compared with £247,161 in 2024.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Investments

Our investments are managed by Evelyn Partners (formerly Smith and Williamson) Investment Managers. The key objectives of the FPH investment policy are:

Achieve an annual unrestricted income of at least £30,000 from dividends and interest (but it is recognized that this is ambitious in the current climate.)
Achieve a return on investment at least in line with inflation within an acceptable level of risk.
To channel investments into sectors that promote and support public health objectives whilst maintaining acceptable returns where feasible.

Unrestricted investment income in 2025 was £22,600 down from £25,312 in 2024 and the capital return on the portfolio was 4.92% compared to 5.22% in 2024.

Unrestricted reserves

Unrestricted funds at 31 December 2025 (excluding designated funds) totalled £2,736,498 representing 15.3 months of normal operational expenditure and 115% of yearly unrestricted turnover.

We continue to aim to maintain reserves of at least 6 months normal operational expenditure.

Other reserves

The following amounts were held at 31 December 2025:

Designated funds £233,869
Restricted funds £130,529
Endowment funds £46,640

Designated funds

A designated fund is the “ring fencing” of funds, by the trustees, of existing unrestricted funds for a particular project or use by the Faculty.

Details of funds are shown in Note 15a to the accounts.

We have prepared a cash flow forecast to 31 December 2026 and we are confident that we can maintain our financial solvency whilst continuing to invest in IT system improvements.

Approach to fundraising

The Faculty does not undertake active fundraising activities.

Committee issues

The RMAFC has developed a comprehensive work plan which is RAG rated.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

A Remuneration Committee set up in 2016 has operated satisfactorily.

VAT

From 2016, FPH has been VAT registered.

Audit

Risk management

The Faculty has a risk register which is updated on a regular basis by managers at FPH. The registers are also reviewed at relevant committee meetings and is then reviewed quarterly at the Risk Management, Audit & Finance Committee (RMAFC) who pay particular attention to all high-risk items. Our risk management process complies with the best practice as set out in the latest guidance from the Charity Commission.

1� Reputational and Financial: The Faculty stores and processes personal and sensitive data of their members. We strive to protect data by complying with the General Data Protection Regulations.

Mitigation: Any new processes and services are required to have robust security as standard. The Faculty holds cyber security insurance and is working towards cyber essentials accreditation. We also mitigate against noncompliance by having a data management strategy including annual mandatory training for staff. We continue to appoint a data protection expert, and their support and guidance is utilised as and when needed.

2� Operational and Financial: The Faculty recognises that there are risks associated with some IT functions and has processes in place as well as designated funds for necessary upgrades.

Mitigation: A Programme Board has been appointed by the trustees to have oversight of all major projects, including the budget and timelines.

3� Reputational, Operational and Financial: Unexpected problems with Exam providers and/or venues. The Faculty has mitigated the impact of this by ensuring certain processes are in place and are reviewed regularly.

Mitigation: We continue to monitor delivery mechanisms to ensure a high-quality service and a good candidate experience.

The Risk Management Audit and Finance Committee is satisfied with the level of risk and the management controls in place to reduce the risks. In financial terms the risks to the organisation are not significant and the future of the Faculty is closely linked to the future development of the Public Health Specialty over time.

Thanks

In the first year of my final term as Treasurer, I remain very grateful for all the help received from my colleagues in the Faculty. Although this gratitude echoes that of previous years, it is no less sincere for that. I am constantly reminded that I am working with an exceptionally talented and dedicated group of people.

Firstly, to our President Tracy Daszkiewicz who has shown exceptional leadership in her first year in office. Tracy and the other Faculty Officers, Executive and Board Members constantly provide the appropriate level of both support and challenge, and it is a pleasure to work with them. As ever, my predecessor Ellis Friedman continues to generously share his wisdom and guidance. Kajol Kochar remains a constant source of support and wise counsel. Colin Money has continued to grow in his role and is a valued team member. Julian Ryder and James Gore continue to give invaluable advice. James in particular is the Faculty’s corporate memory bank, ensuring that lessons are learned from the past.

My colleagues on RMAFC continue to impress with their dedication to keeping the Faculty’s finances on track and our investments in line with the FPH’s high ethical standards. Shelagh Kirkland stepped down as lay member last year and we are very grateful for her role on the committee. Our other lay member Cathy Knowles continues as vital committee member providing exceptional financial advice during the relatively short time they have been with us. I would also like to thank Christina Gray who has continued in her the role of Faculty Risk Advisor and Deputy Chair of RMAFC.

Finally, a huge thanks to Caroline Wren, for her invaluable support of RMAFC. I am very much looking forward to working with them all in the concluding year of my time as Treasurer.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

Status

The Faculty of Public Health is a registered charity. Its charity number is 263894.

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the annual report and financial statements in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards) and applicable law.

Under charity law, the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its net outgoing resources for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
state whether applicable 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 to operate

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2022. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Independent auditor’s report

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Faculty of Public Health (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 December 2025 nd of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended
Have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom GenerallyAccepted Accounting Practice
Have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on The Faculty of Public Health’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

The information given in the trustees’ annual report is inconsistent in any materialrespect with the financial statements;
Sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
The financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
We have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below.

Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

We enquired of management and the Risk Management, Audit and Finance Committee, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity’s policies and procedures relating to:
Identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether
they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have
knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud;
The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-
compliance with laws and regulations.
We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience.
We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We reviewed any reports made to regulators.
We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

UK Faculty of Public Health 2025 Annual Report

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

1 Accounting policies

a) Statutory information

The Faculty of Public Health is an unincorporated charity registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales.

The registered office address is 4 St. Andrews Place, London, NW1 4LB.

b) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

In applying the financial reporting framework, the trustees have made a number of subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. Estimates and judgements are continually

evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The nature of the estimation means the actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. Any significant estimates and judgements affecting these financial statements are detailed within the relevant accounting policy below.

c) Public benefit entity

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

d) Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. This is on the basis of the level of cash and investments held by the Faculty, in addition to an anticipated surplus in the year to 31 December 2025.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

e) Income

Incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) on the following basis:

Membership subscriptions - amounts received in the current year and relating to the current year's subscriptions.
Examination and training fees - amounts received in the current year and relating to examinations and courses held in the current year.
Revalidation fees, donations and legacies, gift aid and investment income - amounts received in the current year.
Journal of Public Health and other income - amounts receivable where the Faculty is legally entitled to the income and the amounts can be reasonably quantified and the transfer of funds is probable.

Subscriptions, examination fees and other income received in advance of the related activity are deferred.

f) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Faculty of Public Health

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

1 Accounting policies (continued)

g) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Endowment funds are perpetual funds where only the income generated from them is used for operational pusposes. Capital growth / loss is adjusted to the value of the funds. Authority to change their nature and status lies with the donors.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.

h) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

i) Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the following basis which are an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity.

Where information about the aims, objectives and projects of the charity is provided to potential beneficiaries, the costs associated with this publicity are allocated to charitable expenditure.

Support and governance costs are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity

	Professional standards and membership	45%
	Examination and training fees	23%
	Public health policy and advocacy	26%
	International	5%
	Journal of Public Health	1%

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities.

j) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

k) Fixed assets and depreciation

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £5,000. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use

of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use. System development costs are not capitalised and written off in the year in

which they are incurred.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The straight line depreciation rates in use are as follows:

Intangible assets
Office and IT furniture and equipment

5 years 3 years

No depreciation has been provided on donated items as their NBV is considered a fair estimate of their value.

1 Accounting policies (continued)

l) Listed investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. Any change in fair value will be recognised in the statement of financial activities. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading “Net gains/(losses) on investments” in the statement of financial activities. The charity does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments.

m) 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.

n) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

o) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

p) Pensions

The charity contributes 12.5% of employees basic salaries to an auto-enrolment pension scheme. Alternatively staff may opt to have contributions made to authorised pension schemes of their choice.
