**BROMHEAD MEDICAL CHARITY** 

**(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year which runs from 1 May 2021 to 30 April 2022. The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

Since the Charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **a. Policies and objectives** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The objects of the charity, as set out in its governing document, are: 

'to prevent, relieve and cure sickness and ill health of every kind (including physical injuries) and to promote health in any way which shall be for the time being charitable in law and in particular (but without either derogating from thegenerality of the foregoing or extending the scope thereof to objects or purposes which are not in law charitable objects or purposes) by providing facilities gratuitously or otherwise according their means for patients resident (and, if thought fit, non-resident) in nursing homes, hospital pay beds and similar institutions.' 

## **Significant activities** 

We are increasingly aware that patients are unable to access NHS treatments either because they do not meet criteria or because of the waiting time. 

In helping to meet our beneficiaries' healthcare needs, we often help ensure that these individuals can resume work or achieve a better quality of life. 

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. 

## **b. Strategies for achieving objectives** 

The charity has a number of strategies to achieve the objectives, with the primary one being the awarding of grants. 

During the year ended 30 April 2022 and in previous years, the charity's grant awarding activities operated in two distinct ways. 

The first was to award grants to individual beneficiaries in order to assist them to access healthcare otherwise unavailable to them. Individuals or representatives made applications to the charity which were assessed against advertised and agreed criteria, met by an appropriate medical representative and then determined and arranged as needed. Those applicants which were not supported financially by the charity were signposted to appropriate alternative support and advised as needed. 

The second way was via the awarding of grants to institutions meeting fixed criteria, with applications being discussed and reviewed at board meetings to determine funding.

**(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **Objectives and activities (continued)** 

The afformentioned signposting continues to be a useful way for the charity to make a positive impact on the wider community in order to assist those who don't always know where to turn when seeking medical support. In addition, the charity continues to petition influential individuals and will champion patients and the public to challenge ineffective parts of healthcare nationally. 

## **c. Grant-making policies** 

## Rationale 

To select the appropriate Organisations and Projects for Bromhead Medical charity support in accordance with the charity's objectives. 

## Group / Organisations or Projects criteria for support 

1. Organisation / group must operate locally in historic Lincolnshire (County of Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire & North Lincolnshire). 

2. Should not benefit from government funding. 

3. Has direct demonstrable benefit to patients providing medical, social care or rehabilitation therapy. 

4. Provides aids, equipment or facilities. 

5. Provides care treatment or therapy. 

6. Enables individuals to maintain independence, dignity and quality of life by means of improving their healthcareor access to healthcare. 

7. Need to complete and sign an application form and agree to the conditions & monitoring etc. Process: 

8. Bromhead Medical Charity representative visits Group or Organisation to gather relevant information / evidence to meet the above criteria. 

9. BMC application to be completed along with required information. 

10. This evidence / information is then presented to the Bromhead Medical Charity Board for approval. 

## **d. Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit** 

The Trustees continue to be proud to provide direct public benefits to patients in the Lincolnshire area who need timely support with their healthcare needs. Despite improvements over recent years in NHS waiting times, the charity still finds sufficient beneficiaries who have not had, or have no prospect of, access to timely hospital treatment. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **a. Main achievements of the Charity** 

The year ended 30 April 2022 has been a progressive year for the charity. The pressures and demands on the health service in the midst of a global pandemic created unprecedented demand for the charity's work. As a result the trustees of the charity took the decision to explore options for the continuation of the Bromhead Medical Charity and explored options to prolong the work and support the charity delivers. 

The charity made the difficult decision after many year's of successful partnership to part company with Axiom Healthcare Limited at 30 April 2022 in an exercise to cut costs as well as to take a more refined direction for the charity. The Charity Trustees are very grateful for the support of Axion Healthcare Limited over many years and in particular the hard work of their CEO Steve Taylor. 

Further details about the charity's operational future have been included in the Plans for the Future section.

**(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

The physical health consultations, operations, treatments and diagnostics have had a huge backlog and waiting times increased, however over the summer months timely access to healthcare treatment has been available to our BMC beneficiaries. The Charity continues to be committed in helping support the people of Lincolnshire & their health needs at these challenging times. 

In the year ended 30 April 2022 alone, the charity directly supported 367 individuals financially. In addition, the charity supported countless members of the public by helping them access services available publicly and providing information and advice. 

Due to the ongoing changes and discussions around the direction of the charity, no grants to organisations were awarded in the year ended 30 April 2022. Final payments were made on account of grants previously awarded including £250,000 to the University of Construction for the construction of the medical school. Final payments were made to the Robert Pattinson Academy and the Lincolnshire Refugee Project. In addition, the charity clawed back a small balance from Headway Lincolnshire who had an unspent balance of charity funds. 

## **b. Fundraising activities and income generation** 

The charity did not publicly fundraise in the year ended 30 April 2022. Looking forward, the charity is exploring options and has in place a fundraising policy. 

## **c. Investment policy and performance** 

In terms of the invested assets, the Charity has changed its investment strategy in light of this new spend level and the investment managers are fully briefed on the Trustees' investment approach and report accordingly. 

## **Financial review** 

## **a. Going concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. 

## **b. Reserves policy** 

The major financial elements of the Charity are: 

- Its invested assets 

- Its running costs 

- Its beneficiary/ Public Benefit spend 

The reserves held by the charity mainly comprise of investments which are used to generate income to support the charities grant making activities. The level of commitments are reviewed by the board regularly in order to ensure the income generated from investments, and if necessary capital invested, can be made available as cash reserves to meet these commitments. Due to this ongoing monitoring of cash flow the level of cash reserves requiring to be held is minimal. 

The charity requires a minimum reserves level of £25,000 in order to meet any liabilities necessary for wind up. The nature of the charity, in that prior to 30 April 2022 the only significant source of income was investment income, is that reserves have gradually decreased over the many years the charity has operated. Plans for 

Page 4 



**BROMHEAD MEDICAL CHARITY (A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

**TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

Future Periods explains the trustees' desire to prolong the life of activity while there is a positive and substantial benefit to the people of Lincolnshire which outweighs the cost in doing so. 

At 30 April 2022, the unrestricted reserves of the charity amounted to £1,221,382 (2021: £1,686,842). The trustees consider that under the new agreed plans for the future, this level of reserves should be able to sustain the effective operation of the charity for a number of additional years. 

## **c. Principal funding** 

The principal sources of funding for the organisation is all from the returns on the investment portfolios. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **a. Constitution** 

Bromhead Medical Charity is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association. The Charity is governed in accordance with the Memorandum of Association amended 19 November 2003 and Articles of Association dating from 9 June 1981. Articles or Association, based on the latest guidance from the Charity Commission are to be considered shortly. 

The Bromhead Medical Charity is constituted as a charitable company, limited by guarantee (Company registration number 01566912). 

## **b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees** 

The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.Trustees are appointed by the Board, and are subject to subsequent election by the AGM. 

## **c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies** 

The Charity strives to keep its organisational structure as lean as possible. Until 30 April 2022, it was managed on contract by Axiom Healthcare Ltd who provide the management and administration of the charity, under the direction of Trustees. A nurse advisor was employed to scrutinise beneficiary applications. The Board meets on a regular two monthly meeting cycle. 

From 30 April 2022, the charity took the management of the activities in house. The charity contracts an office manager and a nurse medical advisor on an adhoc (no fixed hours) basis who assist the trustees in delivering the services of the charity. 

## **d. Policies adopted for the induction and training of Trustees** 

Trustees are interviewed to agree suitability and interest. They are provided with the Charity's Governance documents. 

They sign declarations of interest and HMRC's fit and proper person declaration. They are made aware of the helpful information on the Charity Commission website. Often the new trustees we recruit are existing trustees of other charities.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **Structure, governance and management (continued)** 

## **e. Related party relationships** 

The charity has stringent procedures in place to manage and monitor conflicts of interest. These related party transactions have been fully disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **f. Financial risk management** 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. 

The Trustees actively consider the risks facing the charity from time to time. For example, risks regarding inappropriate claims for beneficiaries are mitigated against by clear qualifying criteria and personal/clinical interviews with the charity's Nurse Advisor. Risks to the Charity's capital value and investment performance are closely monitored with regular monthly reports and detailed meetings with the investment managers. 

## **g. Trustees' indemnities** 

The trustees have taken out appropriate insurance cover. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

At the AGM in November 2021, the trustees voted to streamline further the activities of the charity and suspend the supporting of organisational grant funding in favour of supporting individual beneficiaries only. 

The work and impact of the Bromhead Charity historically, coupled with the ongoing pandemic led to trustees reassessing the earlier decision to demise the charity and explore alternative routes to continue to provide an enormous amount of public benefit while remaining cost efficient. 

Subsequently, in January 2022, a new structure for the charity was agreed, with trustees taking a more "hands on" approach for the management of the charity. 

## Specifically, moving forwards: 

-Estimated annual spend of no more than £200,000 on beneficiaries with a cap of £250,000. -Support costs to be reduced in line with reduced direct cost spend, with additional resources of the charity to be dedicated to signposting service in addition to fundraising for the future. 

The charity is also seeking to raise a modest income from public fundraising, including planning a golf day in July 2023. In the short time the charity has been seeking to fundraise the support has been fantastic. 

## **Members' liability** 

The Members of the Charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the Charity in the event of winding up.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **Statement of Trustees' responsibilities**

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Bromhead Medical Charity ('the Charity')** 

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 30 April 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and Basis of Report** 

As the Trustees of the Charity (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').

## **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 Charity 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. 

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

**BROMHEAD MEDICAL CHARITY (A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **1. General information** 

The Bromhead Medical Charity (a company limited by guarantee) is registered in England with company registration number 01566912 and charity registration number 511893. The registered office address of the charity and the principal objectives can be found in the Trustee's report. 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## **2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

Bromhead Medical Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **2.2 Income** 

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

## **2.3 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **2.4 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 institution with whom the funds are deposited. 

## **2.5 Investments** 

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **2.6 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **2.7 Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **2.8 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. 

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost. 

## **2.9 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
