Chairfs Report WelcowE to Ihe St Peterfs Hosptce annual rewl for Ihe finanoal year ending 3151 Marth 2025. 1 am delighled to present thrs report and reflect on the progress we have made in many areas this year. This year marks a pivotal moment in our joumey, as we launched our bold new fiv&year strategy 'Reaching Further- Improving End of Life Care for Everyone,. This strategy is not just a roadmap - rt is a renewed eomrnilment to equty. mpassion and inrvatIon in the faee of growing need. We know thal many pecple who could benefft from our serv5 are not receiving our support. that is why the strategy set out the arnbrtion to double the number of peopk we support by 2030 and to extend our we from the final weeks to th& final year of lrfe. This aMbjuS pLqn was shaped by extensive research and heartfelt eonlribulijns from our stsff. ¥Unleer$. patients. familtes and the wider communty.

Thi5 year, saw ConSerable growth in support given through our241T specialist adv¢e line, and in attendees at day services and psychological therapy services. The introduction of condrtion-specffic programrres wr(hin day services. including Neurolcgical Living Well. has br¢)adened &cess to our See5 and impact for patients.

In April 2024. we reopened all 15 of our in%Jatient beds folk)wing closure of some beds during the pandern. This increase, alongside an expansion of the 'nurse4ed beds, model of care, resulted in rrrfjre Inpatient beds being occupied this last year.

The remaining £1.Om deficit refie¢ted opering expenses being hvJher than operating income for the year. This deficit was anticipated and is being funded by our free reserves. A key driver of the deficit I$ been the increase in staff costs caused by Infflatn and national h'ving and minimum wage increases. Our financial strategy, supported by our free reserNe$. is to grow inccyne and improve efflencY1produCtiVity lo bring the hospice's financials back into baance.

Investment Policy and Perfonnance The Ineome GeneratiM CcAnmittee and the Finance. Audit and Risk corrnittee both play a role in investment oversight. In addrtion lo these commrttees. regular meetings are held consisting of Trustees. senior management and our invesknent VISers. The Committee sets and oversees the management of the investment policy. The investment poly has an obie¢tive to provideto the k)spe Sufflent liquidity and returns (income and caprtal gains), with an a¢pIable bevel of rk. to enable the Charrty lo carry out rts actwrties effectively in both the short and long temi. During the year we reviewed our investment pohcy. lo generate addrtional income fcv the Hospice. These revised mandates were then put out lo the investment market and fund managers were invited lo lender. The conclusion ol this pre$S was lo ain our managers fry the endow1nt funds arKI to change our manager of our un-re51ricteil fvnds. Short4erni: The Hospice maintains deposits wth rts main bank. and w((h other high street banks when the fvnds deposited are above our pdicy limrt for a single bank. The key short-term ots'ective being to invest sufficient eaprtal in lower risk, liquid and unrestrted assets. in order to operats.ng and eaprtal expendrture cashflow requirements over a 1-2-year time horizr)n. Long4emi: Our Investment Poli sets wt the investment 04ethves for endowed arKI unrestrted fund$'. Unrestricted funds". to generale a luM of RPl+3Qh net of all expenses with an income yield of 2.5%. Endowed funds." lo generate a return of RPl+3% net of all expenses wlh an income yld of 2.5Q/o The key risk lo our investments is inftation. Our fund managers have been instructed to invest in a way to mitigate this risk over Ihe I9 tenn. The Twstees understand that this is likety to mean that the capital value will flucluale and can generate losses wthin ary financhql year. The Charity is able lo tolerate such volalilfy as il has working capital and short-lem funds. 10 St Peterfs Hosplc• report and accwnrs 2024ns
Wth respect to the unrestricted funds. the Charity regularly revtews its liquidty planning and works closety wth the fund manager to maintain appropriate assets to drawdwi when required. Our tonlerm financk81 portfolios a managed by appointed fund managers on a discretionary basis and are subject to an investment mandate in respe¢t of asset allocion. risk. benchmarking and restridions. 11 is recognised that the financral risks of the Charty as a Wh need lo be considered and. therefore. the investment policy supports the requirements set out in the reseeS policy.

ReseThes The HOSpe seeks lo hold financial reserves to enable servw to continue and adapt where there is an unforeseen event or economic conditws th4 ate a merial shortfall in incorre ccwnpared to expenditure. During the year the HOspe conducted a detailed review of its Reserve policy lo ensure that rt balanced the risks facing the Hospice whilst $0 ensuring that it supported the operational and inveslment needs of the organisation. The review was methodical, seeking to understand our Strateg arKI operational risks: For Strategic risks, those that could be con5hleTed existential to the ongoing operation5 of the h05pice, and by their naluie, remote in probabilty. it was consKJered apgrwriate to consider these separate to the operational risks that are to be protected ty free reserves. We recognise that in extremis the Hospi would have access to free reserves, signrficant endctwment funds (for whh powers do exist lo access). and also value in fixed assets that coukl be realised. Fof Operational risks, for which the most material risks te to a potentkql short fall in income. we reviewed historic experience and considered the variabilty and volatilty in income (i.e. from retail operations. fund raising, legacies. investment$ and other in¢¢)mel. We also constdered the historic experience of unexpected and unplanned expenditure. Frun these datapoints we have been able to propose 0 5evd of reserves that would effectively rneet the impact of Core operatKJnal risks crystalising. This anatysis has then been eonverted into a poly that ststes that our free reserves should I beeen a min(mum of 3 months and a maximum of 6 months of operational expendrture.
