## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

Objectives of the charity remain as since its foundation in 1935 by US trained osteopaths, to provide [a] training in osteopathy, [b] treatment by osteopathic methods, and [c] research into those methods and their rationale. 

These objectives, which have been pursued consistently and successfully through the years since, have faced re-examination recently to take account of the statutory restriction since 1993 of the term osteopathy to the practices defined and approved from time to time by the UK General Osteopathic Council [GOsC]. However the founding documents of the charity use wording to describe its teaching, treatment and research objects as extending to "osteopathic, medical or surgical" methods. With the recent challenges the charity faces [see below], the development of policies responding to them will necessarily have to consider this more extensive remit than that confined by the GOsC definition of the term "osteopathy".

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Public benefit** 

We confirm that directors have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. No activity carried on by the charity during the year or envisaged for the coming year falls outside the objects of the charity and all are directly of public benefit. 

**Training** has, with only brief interruptions, continued since 1946, initially as the London College of Osteopathy and since 1980 as the London College of Osteopathic Medicine [LCOM]. The course has always been designed to add osteopathic understanding, skills and clinical competence to those who have already qualified and practised as medical doctors. The strategy of only accepting those who already had medical training was originally to overcome the considerable opposition of established healthcare to recognition of, and cooperation with, osteopaths. Those trained in both disciplines have been able to contribute to the development and eventual statutory recognition of osteopathy at which time four such members of the LCOM were practising as consultants in the NHS. Recent trainees have combined their training with those in Rehabilitation or Sport & Exercise Medicine and can thus aid understanding of osteopathy in specialist NHS medicine circles. With its course specifically for established medical practitioners, the LCOM has a unique worldwide identity with the result that its graduates include those from over twenty-nine nations. 

A cohort of five doctors commenced clinical training in January 2018 and completed their training successfully in August 2019. Recruitment for a course to commence in 2020 was interrupted by the emergence of the COVID-19 virus which rendered any planning of a course impossible. By the end of 2020 the situation still prevailed that no clinical education could take place and prospective candidates could only be offered tentative possibilities of a course commencing in 2021. 

**Treatment** using osteopathic methods has been available, to those not able to afford usual professional fees, at the Osteopathic Association Clinic, a registered charity founded in1927 that became part of OT in 1998. 

During the year 1523 consultations were provided by registered osteopaths compared with 2473 in 2019 and 2318 the year before. During lockdown and slowly progressive partial resumption of clinic work the requirements of protective equipment and social distancing had reduced the allowable patient flow. The two clinicians most active in the clinic suffered from infection with the virus and were not able to work for many weeks. 

**Research.** Without the facilities or funds to establish a research team, OT has had to be more an advocate and promoter of research into osteopathic concepts and treatments but nevertheless had funded the first positive randomised controlled trial of osteopathic manipulation, for back pain, published in the world literature in 1990. 

Consulting space and administrative support had been provided for a randomised controlled trial of a specific osteopathic manipulative treatment for Restless Legs Syndrome, a condition that seriously affects the sleep of 2% of the population. A considerable benefit, approaching a cure, for the majority of patients has been the highly satisfying result and the trial report has been peer-reviewed, and published in International Musculoskeletal Medicine in 2012. Analysis of long-term outcomes of at least three years has shown that the majority of responders to the treatment maintain that benefit. Co-operation with an NHS sleep service is being sought to demonstrate potential value to a significant proportion of the population and hence the nation's well-being.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

2020 has been a challenging year for the charity with difficulties on several fronts. Constrained financial reserves required that the trustees had to keep in mind the financial viability of further training courses, taking account of the risk that trainees who had committed to the course might not be able to complete it. So no cohort would be accepted unless trustees considered that the current circumstances allowed their full course resourcing to be guaranteed. 

It had been planned to decide by the beginning of the year on the viability of the next course commencing studies by the end of 2020. However despite the success of the graduating cohort, thereby demonstrating the strong outcomes generated from the existing structures and processes of the course, further measures [described below] were required to satisfy reservations of the statutory body thus stretching this timetable into 2021. 

Bearing in mind that the internal review of academic and corporate governance using external reviewers had been carried out, an action plan responding to it accepted by the trustees and completed by the end of 2019, the GOsC assent to the course was expected. Trustees were concerned that this should occur as soon as possible to implement the educational purpose of the charity, and also taking account that, with no course continuing, the financial viability of the LCOM was stressed due to continuing overheads. However these considerations were overtaken by the effects of the pandemic and lockdown. 

Trustees regularly review the MLCOM course with regard to its relevance within the context of healthcare generally: achieving training and statutory practice rights in osteopathy has been crucial to some doctors enabling several political refugees to achieve a livelihood in musculoskeletal healthcare when registration with the GMC would have been delayed, difficult and would not have extended their expertise into advanced musculoskeletal competence in which they each were already involved. However gratification of those quite unusual needs would not be a sufficient reason on their own to maintain the course with its extensive practical challenges. 

Members of the college continue to be certain of the benefits of the management of many conditions by health care practitioners who have been trained in the osteopathic assessment and treatment of malfunctions of the musculoskeletal system by manual skills. This addresses particularly the majority of spinal disability endured worldwide. However the necessary expertise requires many hundreds of hours of instruction and practice under close supervision. Securing this training within national health services is seldom resourced so that until more enlightened policies emerge the need persists for courses, such as that leading to MLCOM, to be provided independently. 

Through the latter half of the year expressions of interest were followed up with visits to the College and interviews and some suitable candidates had been identified by the end of the year suggesting that it was possible that a cohort could be recruited when the constraints of the pandemic can be relaxed.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial Review** 

The charity entered 2020 having sustained during 2019 an operating loss of £47K mitigated by a legacy of £40K and gain in value of investments of almost £10K.  How much of this additional expenditure was specific to the project, upgrading staffing and procedures, and how much would be additional recurring costs, trustees realized would be something they would have to monitor while assessing the feasibility of accepting a further cohort of trainees. 

The policy to increase rental income from the considerable unused space in the building was necessarily thwarted by Covid precautions but nevertheless held up at £20K, 67% of the previous year. 

At the end of the year, fixed assets other than the building were investments with M&G valued at £56K.  Over the year activities at Boston place were in deficit by £20K. The final bank balances of £68K compared with £44K a year earlier mainly reflected the acquisition of a £50K Bounce-Back loan. Hence the Net Current Assets figure of £1,018. 

The Trustees consider it a reasonable expectation that successful control of the Covid epidemic would allow income from rents and patient treatments to rise sufficiently to put the clinic into operating surplus. Should a cohort of suitable entrants be recruited and any statutory obstacles be overcome trustees saw no reason for a viable course not to be achievable. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The directors have the power to invest any monies not immediately required for the charitable company's purpose in such investments, securities and property as may be thought fit. 

The investments are held with the objective of providing income to cover the operational deficit incurred by the charitable company in pursuing its charitable objectives. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Following extensive refurbishment and re-organisation over recent years the reserves of the charity were reduced below a level that the directors would have chosen. They took note of the Charity Commission former advice to maintain the unrestricted funds, not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('the free reserves'), to between 12 and 18 months of normal resources expended. However this is clearly not possible in the company's present situation and they took the view that the intent of the Commission's policy was more directed at charities with longer term commitments and less likely fluctuations of income and should not apply to charities that relied on meeting their objectives from income as it is received, and with few commitments much exceeding a year. They were encouraged that this view accorded with that of William Shawcross, then Chairman of the Charity Commission, giving evidence to a parliamentary select committee in November 2017. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

Covid-19 virus: Shutdown due to this pandemic from March 2020 was initially of all activities at Boston Place and furlough of reception staff. Gradual resumption of limited clinic treatment sessions using strict personal hygienic precautions took place but delay in resuming a training course is expected to extend into 2021. While uncertainty persists, some financial resilience has been achieved by a £50,000 loan under the government Bounce Back Loan Scheme. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

Previously the charity's trustee recruitment has been largely from graduates of the college, as they understand the significance of its contemporary role in the healthcare community, have experience of the necessary ways of working of a small voluntary clinical training unit, and have the motivation to help it survive and succeed. However over recent years others have been recruited with the skills and experience in education and management of healthcare, education and charitable organisations. 

The professional grouping of graduates, the Association for Medical Osteopathy, maintains contact with members who receive regular invitations to be involved in the charity. Membership of OT is open to graduates who wish to attend general meetings and keep in touch with decision-making and election of trustees. Trustees can be nominated for election at a general meeting or be co-opted during the year by the board pending confirmation at the next general meeting. 

Induction of trustees has been arranged by the Chairman, during this year necessarily with limited physical contact with premises or personnel. They are introduced to Charity Commission guidance, such as brochure CC3. 

## **Wider network** 

The company is independent of any other organisation although maintaining cooperative relationships with bodies with overlapping objectives such as the Council for Osteopathic Educational Institutions and the National Council for Osteopathic Research. The London College of Osteopathic Medicine is regulated by the General Osteopathic Council. 

## **Risk management** 

The directors examine the major strategic and operational risks that the charitable company faces and review the appropriate steps that could be taken to minimise those risks. Beyond 2020 the trustees have considered, following a risk analysis, the contingency that operations at Boston Place fall into deficit such that a further training course could not be sustained. Means have been discussed, and considered feasible, by which the functions of the London College of Osteopathic Medicine and the Osteopathic Association Clinic could be accommodated less expensively and any deficit then supported by the rental value of the Boston Place premises.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Osteopathic Trusts Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020.

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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.

**OSTEOPATHIC TRUSTS LIMITED** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, 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 Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, 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. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Fixtures and fittings -  10% on cost 

The charity does not capitalise fixed assets with a cost less than £1,000. 

The charity does not depreciate its freehold property as it is considered that the asset will retain its value over the period of ownership. 

## **Taxation** 

The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK Corporation Tax purposes.  Accordingly the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **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 each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the company's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees have taken advantage of the various sources of Government support during the COVID-19 pandemic and consider that it will not have a significant impact on the company's ability to continue trading. Income from trading activities is expected to reduce due to the lockdown conditions and steps are being taken to make cost savings. The trustees regard any impact to be short term rather than affecting the company's ability to continue as a going concern. There are no material uncertainties affecting the current year's accounts.
