REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2019), the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts Reports) Regulations 2008.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The object of the Charity is to support the work of Barnet Hospital. The main aim is to purchase requested equipment and comfort items for patients and staff. The Charity raises funds and runs a hospital shop.
Social investments
The Trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commissions' published guidance on the operation of the public benefit requirement. The Trustees consider the public benefit provided to be the supply at no charge to Barnet Hospital of equipment, facilities and comfort items. The charity runs a convenience shop located at Barnet Hospital.
Volunteers
The Charity had 30 volunteers available per month in the Hospital Shop.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Charity continued to be able to meet its objectives by continuing to support the work of Barnet Hospital. During the year, it was able to purchase new medical equipment and fund research for the hospital totalling £175,630 (2023: £60,384).
Investment performance
The Charity only receives investment income from interest on cash deposits. The interest receivable increased due to the rate of interest set by the Bank of England.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
Income from the shop amounted to £984,764 (2023: £944,082) and its expenditure was £855,857 (2023: £785,360) resulting in a net shop surplus of £128,907 (2023: £158,722). In addition, the charity received legacies, donations and other income totalling £2,279 (2023: £1,501) and funded requests for hospital projects and equipment of £175,630 (2023: £60,384). Overall, the charity recorded a deficit of £37,672 (2023: surplus of £104,655) and the trustees are satisfied with this result.
The Charity has Unrestricted Funds that are split into a General Fund and a Shop Fund.The surplus generated from the shop is allocated to the Shop Fund. A transfer is then made from this fund to the General Fund. The hospital shop has provided funds for the Charity's General Funds of £130,000 (2023: £160,000) with donations, subscriptions, legacies and other income providing a further £2,279 (2023: £1,501).
The total reserves as at the year end were £775,351 (2023: £813,023). The trustees acknowledge that these are substantial and are pleased that they will be able to supply the hospital with medical equipment and staff facilities when requests are made. The trustees are considering supporting any major project which the hospital wishes to undertake.
Principal funding sources
The Charity's incoming resources are substantially generated from the hospital shop.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have examined the requirement for free reserves, which are those not invested in fixed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. They consider that it is desirable to maintain this at a minimum level of £50,000 for the general fund and £50,000 for the shop fund, to earn interest and allow for future hospital expenditure, maintaining sufficient working capital for the shop and the running costs of the Charity. At 31 December 2024, the free reserves of the general fund and shop fund were £724,607 (2023: £762,066) and £43,663 (2023: £48,842) respectively.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
FUTURE PLANS
The Charity plans to continue to supply hospital equipment and comfort items for the staff and patients of Barnet Hospital which is requested by their representatives.
The Charity will continue to operate the hospital shop for the foreseeable future in order to generate funds to help meet the above objectives.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The Charity is controlled by its governing document, "Object and Rules" adopted in 1953 and subsequently amended in 1954, 1956, 1957, 1976, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2020. The Charity is registered in England and is constituted as an unincorporated association.
Recruitment, appointment, induction and training of new trustees
Candidates are selected if they are already known to the Committee and have the expertise required to be a Trustee. The Trustee is recruited only after having had an interview with the Committee.
New trustees are provided with the documents relating to the constitution, objects and activities of the charity, together with current financial and other information relating to its operations. All trustees are expected to keep up-to-date with the requirements provided by the Charity Commission. Trustees are encouraged to be alert to issues that might affect the charity.
Organisational structure
Under the provisions of the governing document the Charity is managed by a Committee which currently consists of seven members including the three Trustees, all of whom are members. Approximately one third of the Committee, being those that are the longest serving since last elected must retire at the conclusion of the annual general meeting. Retiring members of the Committee are available for re-election. The Chairman is elected at the first Committee meeting after the annual general meeting. The Committee also elects a Treasurer and Secretary from their number.
The Committee normally meet once a month.
Requests are made by hospital staff for equipment and comfort items in writing and they are invited to make a presentation to the Committee. Actions are taken only after a majority vote with the Chairman having the casting vote in the event of a tie.
The hospital shop is run by the shop manager and the day-to-day running of the shop is being carried out by four assistant managers, working on a rota basis.
The day-to-day administration of the Charity itself, including correspondence and enquiries, is dealt with by the Chairman, Mr Seamus Kelly.
Key management remuneration
The Charity's key management personnel do not receive any remuneration.
Risk management
The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The Trustees consider the misappropriation of cash takings and stock from the hospital shop to be the major risk facing the Charity. The Trustees believe that the current controls that are in place minimise the risk of the Charity suffering any losses.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE FRIENDS OF BARNET HOSPITAL
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Friends of Barnet Hospital
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Friends of Barnet Hospital (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
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 at least the next twelve months. Consequently, they believe it is correct to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in the Charities SORP.
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires the trustees to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for income and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. In the trustees opinions, there are no significant judgements or key sources of estimation uncertainty.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds or the services have been provided, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Raising funds
Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes, where relevant.
Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions in support of the charitable activities.
Charitable activities
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.
Governance costs
Governance costs include all costs associated with the compliance of the legal framework of the Charity, including independent examination and accountancy fees.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures, fittings and equipment - 20% on cost
The charity has a policy of capitalising tangible fixed assets purchases the cost of which is in excess of £500.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of individual funds is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Donations and legacies
Grants and legacies are accounted for as soon as the charity is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due is quantifiable and its ultimate receipt is reasonably certain.
Financial instruments
The charity's financial assets and liabilities all qualify as basic financial instruments that are initially recognised at transaction value.
Creditors are recognised where there is a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of value to a third party and the amount payable can be measured or estimated reliably.

There has been correspondence between the Charity and HMRC regarding the use of built up reserves. It is expected that further requests will be made for hospital equipment to be provided. The impact of this will mean that the Charity's reserves will be expended. However, it is deemed appropriate to disclose the possibility of a Corporation Tax charge arising on shop income not yet spent.
17. OTHER FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS
At the year end the Committee had given general approval for future expenditure of £148,487 (2023: £35,970) on equipment for Barnet Hospital.
