1.0 Introduction
The following report has been prepared by the Officers of The British Society of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry, for the financial period 1[st] January 2020 to 31[st] December 2020.
1. Structure and Objectives of the Society
The Society is a registered charitable Trust, regulated by its original Trust deed dated 19[th] July 1949, and amended in 1999. The Trust Deed provides for a Constitution and Bye Laws of the Society.
The objectives of the Society, as stated in the Constitution and Bye-Laws are to:
" to promote for the general health, wellbeing and knowledge of the public, the art and science of dentistry and in particular the art and science of periodontology and dental implantology and in furtherance thereof to advance all aspects of periodontology and dental implantology and to promote improvements in the teaching of the same.”
In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Society’s objectives and in planning future activities and making grants for the forthcoming year.
1.2 Principal activities
Over time the Council has developed the following activities as the principal means of achieving our charitable objectives for the benefit of the public:
-
Circulate educational material to our members including the Society’s main publication “The Journal of Clinical Periodontology”.
-
Organise National Conferences devoted to Periodontology and Implant Dentistry;
-
Organise webinar-based educational lectures.

-
From time to time, make donations to other charitable bodies for the furtherance of dental education.

THE BRITISH SOCIETY OF PERIODONTOLOGY AND IMPLANT DENTISTRY
TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2.0 Membership
Membership of the Society is unlimited in number. Members must be registered in the Medical or Dentists’ Register or hold such other qualifications as Council approve, registered as a Dental Undergraduate in the United Kingdom, or be members of an affiliated Society. The membership categories are:
-
(a) Honorary Membership is bestowed upon a small number of figures in recognition of their unique contribution to Periodontology at the international level. Membership is free.
-
(b) Full Membership : includes subscription to the scientific publication, the Journal of Clinical Periodontology , which is the official publication of the British Society of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry, and of the European Federation of Periodontology. In 2002, the Journal became available electronically and the European Federation of Periodontology ruled that all Full Members of its constituent societies must receive the electronic Journal subscription as part of their membership, with the paper Journal being available as an option at an increased membership cost. At the Annual General Meeting of the Society (24[th] April 2019) members voted not to increase membership subscriptions, except by the increased levy of £5 imposed by the Journal publishers, Wiley, in 2020. Such levy only applied to full members, as Associate members do not have access to the Journal. Such increase equated to a full membership of £177.00 for electronic Journal subscribers and £237.00 for members receiving the printed Journal. All members continue to benefit from free webinars and reduced registration rates at the larger meetings held by the Society .
-
(c) Postgraduate Student Membership and Specialist Registrars : The subscription for registered fulltime postgraduate students and Specialist Registrars was adopted by the Society at the Annual General Meeting on 26[th] September 1997. At the AGM of 24[th] April 2019 members voted to increase the subscription with electronic Journal to £117, and for those receiving the printed Journal to £177. At the Annual General Meeting on 18th September 1998, it was agreed that the reduced subscription should be available for a maximum of four years of study. Postgraduate members and Specialist Registrars have full voting rights.
-
(d) First 2 Years category was introduced at the 2005 AGM and relates to a reduced membership category for newly qualified dentists up to 4 years post qualification. During 2017 it was decided that this would be reduced to 2 years for new applicants in line with other societies. In addition, at the AGM on 24[th] April 2019, members voted to increase subscriptions to £117 for the electronic journal alone and £177 with the printed Journal.
-
(e) Dental Hygienists and Dental Therapists . At the AGM of 24[th] April 2019, it was decided to increase subscriptions to £117 for the electronic Journal alone and £177 with the printed journal. Dental hygienists and dental therapists are full members of the Society.
-
(f) Retired members of the Society (Associate): This category replaced the former category of “Corresponding Membership” and was approved by the AGM of 20[th] September 2002. Associates of the Society do not receive the electronic Journal and have no voting rights but pay a subscription rate of £80.
-
(g) Other Dental Care Professionals (Associate) who are registered with the General Dental Council. At the AGM of 24[th] April 2019 members ratified the subscription rate of £80.
-
(h) Undergraduate Student Membership (Associate), including students on DCP courses, was introduced at the Annual General Meeting (16[th] September 1999). At the AGM of 10[th] Oct 2018, it was decided to make membership without the electronic journal free. In 2019, it was agreed to charge a one-off administrative fee of £10 to cover the cost of printing and postage. Undergraduates remain members of the Society for the duration of their undergraduate course.
-
(i) Member of a European Society (Associate) who already subscribes to the electronic Journal of Clinical Periodontology benefits from a reduced subscription rate of £80.
-
(j) Overseas Dentist Members ; full membership with electronic journal £187, and with printed journal £247

THE BRITISH SOCIETY OF PERIODONTOLOGY AND IMPLANT DENTISTRY
TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
3.0 Review of the Year
3.1 Subscriptions
The Society's subscription year is from 1st January to 31st December, following the alignment of financial and subscription years in 2002. At the end of 2020, the Society had 1530 members.
3.2 Scientific Meetings
London 2020
Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the BSP 2020 Conference had to be postponed until 12-14[th] November 2021.
3.3 Charitable work
The Society continued with its charitable work throughout the year, predominantly through the educational programme, dissemination of information to the public and profession and sponsorship of research and educational prizes for career development of young professionals.
3.4 BSP Patient Forum
The members of the BSP Patient Forum, led by Professor Needleman and Professor Shauna Culshaw, continue to play a major role in the improvement of gum health in the UK.
In 2020, members in Scotland contributed to an initiative at the University of Glasgow Dental School by attending a half-day symposium focussed on practical, patient-related aspects of periodontology. In small groups, the students posed questions to the Patient Forum members and gained an insight into the periodontitis patient journey. The students found this to be an extremely valuable experience which would hugely impact their clinical practice.
The Patient Forum had a successful meeting in London in March and were joined by Mr Derek Stewart OBE, internationally recognised for his work as a patient advocate regarding throat cancer but also much wider across healthcare. This meeting was a great way to help the volunteers develop their skills and confidence in advocacy for gum health.
Unfortunately, the Patient Forum meeting planned in Glasgow at the end of March 2020 was postponed due to Covid-19. A joint meeting is planned to be held online in March 2021.
At the 2020 AGM, the membership unanimously voted in favour of changing the Constitution to include a representative from the BSP Patient Forum on Council. It was recognised that such an appointment will give a voice to the patient community and greatly help the Society by informing and influencing our activity, policy and strategy.
3.5 National Campaign
Each year the Society gets involved in the pan European campaign to raise awareness of the importance of gum health. Gum Health Day 2020 was scheduled to take place on 12[th] May 2020. This year’s campaign was based around the slogan “Say No to Bleeding Gums”. The goal was to raise awareness about bleeding gums and how they are usually a sign of gum disease and need urgent treatment at the dental practice – otherwise they may pose a risk to health. This aligns with other awareness raising events that the BSP has undertaken to promote oral health.
Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 crisis, our planned public events could not take place and instead we ran a remarkably successful online campaign and promoted Gum Health Day via our social media platforms.
3.6 BSP Implementation of the EFP’s S3 Treatment Guideline for Periodontitis
In May, the BSP worked hard to review the EFP’s Evidenced-based Treatment Guidelines. Led by Professor Nicola West and Professor Moritz Kebschull, the BSP held online working group meetings comprised of 75 dental professionals, medical experts, stakeholders and BSP Patient Forum members, to rapidly review the European guidelines, reviewing and adapting them for the UK healthcare system.
The BSP paper was planned to be published in the Journal of Dentistry in January 2021 and would be followed by a series of free educational webinars and development of resources to support the wider dental community, patients and the public.

This year the Society continued to develop its programme of webinars, which has proven to be an extremely popular and more effective tool than traditional regional lectures. Webinars allow better educational access to all members who can view live (or archived) presentations at home or work, via the web. The webinars in 2020 offered a wide range of relevant and interesting topics and were well received by our members.
The series of four BSP Back to Work Hand Instrumentation Masterclass webinars were provided free of charge to the wider dental community and provided a refresher course to help practitioners adapt to the new Covid-19 dental regulations. This series of webinars fulfilled our educational objectives and attracted registrations from over 11,380 dental care professionals.

BSP at the British Dental Conference & Dentistry Show:
This event has been postponed to May 2022.
British Society of Dental Hygiene & Therapy Conference
This event has been postponed to 26-27[th] November 2021.
Early Career Group (ECG) :
Our ECG continues to develop and offer support for new members of the profession interested in periodontology. The website now provides more detailed information on Career Pathways and Specialty Training. The ECG hands-on Mucogingival Surgical Masterclass course in January 2020 was a huge success. The ECG have also worked hard to reply to member enquiries and offer advice on training routes. In addition, the ECG have worked with BSP Council to create a series of patient information leaflets. In 2020, the ECG social media accounts were merged with the main BSP platforms to build a greater following and ensure that communications are consistent.
3.9 Partnership agreements
Several companies (Acteon, GlaxoSmithKline, Johnson & Johnson, and Oral-B) have agreed to donate funds to the BSP to help deliver the aims of our Strategic Plan. These partnerships have been highly successful. The Executive General Manager provides them with regular updates and monthly newsletters, and they have been extremely impressed with the progress made and the projects undertaken.
3.10 Society’s Website / Social Media
As Canterbury Web ceased trading in 2020, we worked with a new company, Optima, to develop a more modern website to support our ever-developing educational programme and membership needs. The new website offers improved functionality and allows members to have more control over their BSP activities. The BSP website offers key information on periodontal disease and implant dentistry for both patients, the public and dental care professionals. It provides key management functionality that the Society use for event bookings, advertising job vacancies and maintenance of the membership.

TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The website holds our databases, conference and event registrations, course feedback and CPD certificates and is fully GDPR compliant. In addition, the site also contains case reports, a jobs’ section, newsletters, publications, educational videos and resources. The new website certainly reflects the dynamic nature of the BSP and Mrs Dunn and Mrs Lawson are working hard to develop the site further.
The Society has a good social media following with platforms on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. The social media accounts continue to grow and are led by Mrs Paula Dunn. Private platforms posts and dental queries are responded to be Dr Ian Dunn. The BSP recognise that good, effective communication is key and essential to enable us to achieve our strategic aims and maintain strong, working relationships at all levels of the Society. Social media has become an integral part of membership growth, collaboration with other health professionals and raising awareness of the latest news and we are therefore exploring ways to expand our social media team.
3.11 Monthly Newsletters and Periodical
The monthly newsletter is written by Mrs Paula Dunn and edited by Dr Richard Tucker. The newsletter is a professional, informative, and well received publication that helps Society members keep up to date on activities and clinical information. The newsletters are distributed by email.
The Periodical magazine is an annual summary of the year’s main events and Society activities. In 2020, we encouraged members to contribute articles to the publication and were delighted to produce a 24-page Periodical. This was distributed in the post to all members.
4.0 Strategic Plan
This major initiative for the society was launched and agreed by the membership at the September AGM 2014. The Society has made considerable progress in delivering on this 5-year plan. The plan aims to develop and deliver a clear vision and mission for the society over the 5 years.
The vision is ‘Periodontal Health for a Better life’ and the mission ‘Promote public & professional awareness of periodontal & implant dentistry to achieve our vison of ‘periodontal health for a better life.’’ The plan consists of 3 strategic aims:
-
To operate an open process of 2-way engagement with patients, the public and other key stakeholders and provide exchange of knowledge, views and priorities between the Society and the public, patients and healthcare professionals.
-
To develop, implement and maintain strategic partnerships that will further the strategic aims of the Society and each partner organisation.
-
To ensure long term growth & sustainability necessary for the Society to achieve its specific objectives.
Over the intervening years several key initiatives have been introduced by the society to deliver on these strategic aims.
The society continues to work closely with its Partner Sponsors to secure funding to help deliver the strategic plan.
The latest 5-year Strategic Plan 2019-2024 is available to view on the BSP website.

5.2 Value Added Tax
With reference to the issue of V.A.T. liability for the Society’s activities the Society, as a Learned Society is exempt from paying VAT on some of it’s income. This is under schedule 9/group 9/item 1c of the V.A.T. Act 1994, in that we are an association the primary purpose of which is the advancement of a particular branch of knowledge or the fostering of professional expertise connected with the past or present professions or employments of its members.

A risk management policy in line with Charity Commission recommendations was approved by Council and also by the membership at the September 2003 AGM and continues to direct the Society’s financial strategy. The risk management includes the purchase of insurance to cover all our meetings against cancellation or the failure of speakers to attend.
A revised Reserves Policy was drafted in January 2013 by the previous Honorary Treasurer Prof Peter Heasman and this was presented to Council and adopted during 2013. This policy is based on the requirements of charity law, the charitable statement of recommended practice (2005) and good practice, as well as taking into account the current financial situation of the society. The society aims to hold in the region of £135,000 in a contingency fund to cover a number of financial identified scenarios that may impact on the society funds. This contingency fund is held in a ‘Stewardship Account’ with a balance of £141,670 current balance (31st December 2020). In addition, a balance of £175,000 is held in the EP8 legacy fund.
5.4 Public Benefit

At the start of the financial year, we had restricted funds of £53,380 which have been utilised for the delivery of the strategic plan. The funds carried forward for restricted funds were £53,632. Due to Covid 19 the annual conference did not take place in 2020 and has been postponed to 12-14 November 2021.

THE BRITISH SOCIETY OF PERIODONTOLOGY AND IMPLANT DENTISTRY
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BRITISH SOCIETY OF PERIODONTOLOGY AND IMPLANT DENTISTRY
I report on the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2020, which are set out on pages 12 to 24.
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and examiner
The Charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
(i) examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
(ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
(iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.
Independent examiner's statement
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
In connection with my examination, no other matter except that referred to in the previous paragraph has come to my attention:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
(ii) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act;
have not been met or
- (b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's Constitution, the Charities Act 2011 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements 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 the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Bank interest receivable is included on an actual receipts basis.
Income resources are accounted for on a receivable basis.
-
Annual subscriptions to the Society run for the 12 months to 31st December. The financial statements reflect income receivable for the year.
-
Income and costs associated with conferences are recognised according to the date of the conference.
-
• Sponsorship and trade exhibitions income is recognised according to the date of the related event, unless alternatively agreed with the sponsor.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Accounting policies
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
1.5 Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
These costs include all expenditure for the publication of 'The Journal of Clinical Periodontology'', running conferences devoted to periodontology and the giving of grants to individuals advancing the field of periodontology along with support costs incurred.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets costing £200 or more are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Fixtures and fittings
straight line over 2 years
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.7 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.8 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

1 Accounting policies
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
