Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Introduction from our Chair and Chief Executive

Welcome to our 2022/2023 Annual Report. As Chair of the Board and Trustees and the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Nurse, we look forward to sharing more about the past year at the hospice.

The last twelve months have been truly remarkable for the hospice, and we were delighted to receive a Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating of ‘Outstanding’ following an unannounced inspection in November 2022. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, whose kindness and compassion in caring for our patients and those close to them is highly valued.

With several new appointments to our Board of Trustees and Executive Leadership Team, building the foundations of strong leadership was of the utmost importance. We implemented our new Board Assurance Framework to ensure effective structures and relationships between the Board of Trustees, Executive Leadership Team, Board Sub-Committees and Governance Groups.

Between the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and the cost of living crisis in the UK, the year has presented many challenges – and the progress we have made as a leadership team has been vital in ensuring we navigate these in the best way possible.

Together, we supported more local people throughout our services in comparison to last year – perhaps the most important outcome of all.

Of course, none of this would be possible without those who give so generously to the hospice, volunteer their time or support us in any other way, as well as the innovative work of our fundraising and retail teams.

Last year saw the return of our first in-person Light up a Life event since the pandemic, and our annual Rudolph Run fundraiser generated over £33,000 throughout December 2022- the highest total yet!

However, with the current cost of living crisis meaning people have less disposable income, and the uncertainty of hospice funding nationally, we are working proactively to secure new, sustainable income streams and pre-empt any future financial challenges.

Whilst we are incredibly proud of what we have achieved this year, this is not a reason to take our foot off the pedal – in fact, we have more motivation than ever to aim high and continue improving our services for the people of Barnsley. An ambitious set of new strategic objectives was approved by the Board in November 2022, outlining how we will meet our vision over the next few years.

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Financial Review

Global events, such as the war in Ukraine and the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic have had a significant impact on world economies. By the end of 2022, UK inflation was near 11% and the cost of living increased sharply with soaring energy and food prices. In light of this, the operating costs of the hospice have continued to increase beyond expectations. To date, no further state funding has been made available to support the hospice sector, highlighting the vulnerabilities of the current hospice funding model throughout the UK.

Total expenditure for the year was £944k higher than in 2021/22, reflecting the increased cost of living and a subsequent pay uplift for staff.

The Board of Trustees have also invested significantly in increasing the capacity and capability of staff across the hospice. The increased spend was necessary to transform the organisation, as circumstances required it following the CQC rating of Inadequate in April 2021, and was key to driving improved patient and staff experience and the survival of the hospice.

Income

The total income for the year was significantly lower than 2021/22 at £3.36m. The main difference was a reduced legacy income. In 2021/22, income from legacies was £2.7m, whereas in 2022/23, this was just £358k.

Another significant difference this year was a low level of investment income at just £20k. Whilst this is marginally better than in 2021/22, it remains significantly lower than in previous years. Consequently, the Board has identified the fall in the value of investments as one of the hospice’s main financial risks for the future and monitors this as part of the organisational risk register. In addition, we continue to actively review banking arrangements to optimise interest value.

We remain reliant on income generation activities in addition to an annual NHS grant.

Lottery income has stalled and future work is planned to improve performance and maximise income.

Despite the economic climate and reduced disposable income, we continue to be well supported by the local community via our fundraising events. However, there has been a marked decline in donations.

Comparison of income for 2021/22 and 2022/23

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Expenditure

Expenditure in the year increased by £944k.

The cost of raising funds increased by £53k due to the restructuring of the fundraising function and the recruitment of staff.

The cost of charitable activity increased by £724k (circa 28%), due to increased activity support costs for our inpatient care and core activities.

7

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Investment policy and objectives

The hospice investment policy remains unchanged, however, due to volatile markets during the year the value of the portfolio reduced by £63.5k. The Finance and Resources Committee were not satisfied with this overall result and will look at alternatives for investment of funds during 2023/24.

Reserves

Total reserves at the end of the year amounted to £8.5m (2022: £9.5m) of which £322k was restricted (2022: £240k). The total value of designated funds is £2.9m (2022: £3.7m).

The reserves policy agreed upon by the Trustees remains unchanged and requires that the Charity must hold a minimum reserves level of £3m to counter the extreme financial environment of the current economic climate. This level of reserves would be sufficient to fund circa 9 months’ operating costs, however, free reserves were slightly under at the year end, £2.8m. This level of reserves is sufficient to fund circa 8 months’ operating costs.

The five designated funds are set up to support the services and income streams, and to build our infrastructure to enable us to continue to provide outstanding facilities and services.

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Counselling Service

Bereavement Support Service

Our counselling service supports people living with a progressive life-limiting illness, who have specialist palliative care needs, and those close to them. Our counsellors help people to explore difficult feelings and emotions relating to their own or a loved one’s illness. This may be at any stage of the patient’s palliative care journey.

Our hospice counsellors are specialists in providing bereavement counselling and support for those experiencing grief after someone dies from a life-limiting progressive illness. This support is provided face-to-face or via telephone. They provide both pre- and postbereavement support, and this can be especially important for children. The team is experienced in helping children aged 5 to 18 years of age. Our counselling suite provides a safe and confidential space for patients and families to discuss the psychological impact their illness is having on them.

In 22/23 we provided 504 counselling sessions at the hospice

770 counselling sessions held remotely

Objectives and activities

Charitable activities

The Charity reviews its objectives and activities annually, identifying achievements and outcomes and ensuring that the activities related to the aims and objectives set.

Hospice services

Our services are provided free to patients and their families and friends. A clinical team led by Consultants in Palliative Medicine deliver the clinical services.

The Chief Executive Officer / Chief Nurse is also the Registered Manager, and the Controlled Drugs Accountable Officer (CDAO). The Director of Governance and Quality is the Senior Information Risk Owner (SIRO), and one of the Consultants in Palliative Medicine is the Caldicott Guardian.

We have developed a flexible and experienced skill mix of people, ranging from employed staff such as palliative care clinicians, therapists and carers, to our broad mix of volunteers who provide support to all our non-clinical services and organisational functions across all settings. This enables us to focus on proactive care planning and management, which aids effective people-centred decision-making.

Our services ensure that specialist support and advice are available to people wherever they are, whether at home, in a care home, in a hospital or without a home.

However, we also support people in many different settings, from the hospice itself, which has a 10 bedded inpatient unit, Barnsley Hospital to working in local communities.

We provide our services by:

A specialist multidisciplinary team providing clinical consultations, advice and education including:

A local approach

Public benefit

In planning and delivering its services and activities, the Trustees and Executive of Barnsley Hospice have given due regard to the need to ensure that the organisation provides public benefit, following the Charity Commission’s guidance on these matters.

Barnsley Hospice’s charitable objectives and our annual declaration of activities and achievements (publically available from the Charities Commission and Companies House) demonstrate that Barnsley Hospice provides vital free-to-access services available to all people in the metropolitan borough of Barnsley.

Our purpose is to benefit:

• Those facing dying, death and bereavement. Our support is offered not only to those who are ill but to their family and friends, and this includes services for bereaved children and young people.

Our services are available to people living within the Barnsley area. Whenever possible, we will also help people outside our immediate catchment area if it is their wish to be supported by us.

Palliative care is required for a wide range of diseases. The majority of adults in need of palliative care have chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases (38.5%), cancer (34%), chronic respiratory diseases (10.3%), AIDS (5.7%) and diabetes (4.6%). Many other conditions may require palliative care, including kidney failure, chronic liver disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, neurological disease, dementia, - congenital anomalies and drug resistant tuberculosis.

Structure Governance and , Management

Management and decision making

Barnsley Hospice is a company limited by guarantee and is governed under its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Trustees are appointed by the Board, and the Board is responsible for the effective governance of the Charity.

The Board delegates operational responsibility to the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Nurse who delegates the work through the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) to the staff and volunteers.

Our workforce and management structure

The management and leadership of the hospice is led by the Chief Executive Officer/ Chief Nurse who chairs a weekly ELT meeting. The Chief Executive Officer/Chief Nurse meets formally with the Chair of the Board of Trustees at least once a month. On 31 March 2023, the Charity employed 116 members of staff.

Board of Trustees committees

The structure of the Board’s sub-committees was revised in May 2022.

The number of sub-committees was reduced from three to two, in order to strengthen the assurance reporting to the Board. Each sub-committee has two governance groups, each with a clearly defined role and remit, establishing formal and efficient escalation routes to the Board.

22

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Governance and Quality Committee

The Governance and Quality Committee oversees delivery of the hospice’s objectives in relation to the quality, effectiveness and safety of the services it provides. The meetings are attended by the Director of Governance and Quality and 3 members of the Board of Trustees. The committee is chaired by a Trustee of the Board with expertise in this area. The committee reviews systems, processes and outcomes in relation to:

Finance and Resources Committee

The Finance and Resources Committee oversees all financial, income generation, human resources, organisational development and facilities aspects of the Charity’s activities. It reviews the budget and monitors performance against it. It also considers the appointment, resignation or dismissal of external auditors and approves their annual fee. The committee reviews the:

The committee is chaired by a Trustee of the Board with expertise in this area. The meetings are attended by the Director of Finance and Income Generation, the Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development and 3 Trustees.

23

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Trustee induction and recruitment

Recruitment

All current Board members have been appointed to the Board of Trustees based on their experience, expertise, community involvement, and for their commitment to and passion for the work of Barnsley Hospice and the hospice movement in general.

The Chair of the Board and Committee Chairs oversee the process of succession planning, recruitment and induction of Trustees, and will also meet with all prospective Trustees.

Prospective Trustees will normally attend at least one Board meeting, before being asked to enter the formal processes of application and acceptance.

In 2022/23, the Trustee role description and handbook were reviewed by the Chair to ensure it remains fit for purpose.

Induction

Once approved, new Trustees will usually identify particular areas of interest and will focus especially on those.

As part of their induction, Trustees receive a handbook which includes planning and financial documents, national guidance about being a Trustee and information relevant to the hospice.

Ongoing development

All Trustees see the work of the Charity first-hand and are given ample opportunities to engage with the Charity’s activities, services, staff and volunteers – and with service users as appropriate.

In 2022/23, a Board Development Programme was agreed to demonstrate the requirements that the hospice is well-led in order to achieve the best possible care for our patients and their families.

All Trustees are required to proactively undertake an annual skills audit, and review their own performance regularly.

The Board of Trustees demonstrate a collective ambition to provide ‘Outstanding’ leadership. They understand the need to adapt to the external environment, whilst prioritising clinical governance and delivering CQC outcomes.

24

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Risk and internal control

The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity has an appropriate system of controls - financial and otherwise. Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities and to provide assurance that:

The Charity complies with relevant laws and regulations.

As part of the Charity’s risk management process, the Trustees acknowledge their responsibility for the Charity’s system of internal control and reviewing its effectiveness. The Trustees recognise that such a system is designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve the Charity’s objectives, and can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.

Operational risks are managed through the Charity’s policies, staff training and development, and governance arrangements. Strategically, the main risks for the Charity related to our inadequate CQC rating and the challenging financial landscape.

These risks are being managed by:

Our Funding

We are proud to provide our services free of charge for our patients and those close to them. The hospice’s running costs in 2022/23 were £4.4m.

The majority of our running costs continue to be funded through the generosity of our local community through donations, legacies, grants, fundraising initiatives and by shopping and donating items at our hospice retail hub in Dodworth.

We also received an annual grant from the NHS (£1.5m), which covers only 35% of our running costs. All of the financial support we receive from the NHS is spent directly on patient services.

We are mindful of the impact of the external economic environment on our income generation efforts and review all our services on an ongoing basis to ensure we are operating as efficiently as possible.

Our People

Renumeration and benefits

2021-22 salary costs were £2,661,507 and in 2022-23 they were £3,363,793 this includes salaries, National Insurance and Pensions costs. Our budget for 2022/23 included a 5% increase to pay and referenced the need to create a longer-term financial plan.

A pay review for hospice specialty and bank doctors was undertaken in September 2022, which was necessary to help us retain current staff members in this group and to recruit new staff when required. We have committed to maintaining the link with NHS specialty doctor pay scales going forward with yearly uplifts as per NHS for each doctor in line with NHS pay scales. This change alone has added £26k to the pay bill.

The notes in the accounts show staff costs as £2,706,686 in 2021/22 and £3,493,665 in 2022-23, which also includes other staff costs, which are mostly staff training and agency costs.

The average number of persons employed in 2021/22 was 92 and in 2022/23 100.

The average number of monthly full-time equivalent staff in 2021/22 was 69, which increased in 2022/23 to 71.

We have committed to review pay and benefits in 2023/24, including overtime shift and on-call payments, pay structure, holiday allowance and pensions.

The hospice currently provides two pension schemes: the NHS scheme, for those individuals who are already a member of the NHS pension when they join the hospice; and the Royal London scheme, where the hospice matches employee contributions between 4% and 10%. Unless the individual is already a member of the NHS pension scheme they are auto-enrolled into the Royal London scheme, subject to meeting the qualifying conditions. The costs of providing the NHS pension are significant when compared with the costs of providing the Royal London pension. This will be reviewed next year.

Clinical and assurance quality

Hospice services

Two new posts were approved in the year to advance clinical quality, including the Director of Nursing and Allied Health Professionals and the Quality Matron. The priorities for practice were identified as building a patient safety culture to reduce the potential risk of harm and the use of evidence-based practice to ensure care is given in line with the most current, best available, validated and relevant research available in order to strive for clinical excellence.

We continue to hear the voices of the people who use our services and use their feedback to enhance the experience of care and support.

We have produced a Quality Account for 2022/23 which details our approach and achievements to date. Here are a few examples from that report.

Examples of Learning from Incidents and Actions Taken

Our Prevention and Management of Falls Policy has been updated to provide clearer guidance to staff.

Completion of falls prevention training increased from 56% in September 2022 to over 90% by the end of November 2022.

We held an internal Falls Prevention Awareness Campaign throughout March 2023.

We ran a Pressure Ulcer Awareness campaign for our clinical services in February 2023, raising awareness of how to recognise and prevent pressure ulcers.

Drug charts are taken into the “daily huddle” so any discrepancies can be highlighted.

We developed a Missed Drug Dose Flowchart to guide staff on the approach to take when a medicine has not been administered.

We rolled out a comprehensive update of our Medicines Management Policy in April 2023.

Our medicines competency documentation for nursing staff was extensively updated and is due to be rolled out in 2023/24.

We updated our Records Management Policy, which was accompanied by a training programme for Team Managers.

Our second 100 Miles in July Challenge took place in 2022.

Income generation

Fundraising

Throughout 2022/23 our Fundraising team was running at a reduced capacity due to vacancies which we struggled to fill. In January 2023, we appointed a new Fundraising Manager, and we will continue to review the structure of the team to support and develop our income generation activities.

This year, our events and fundraisers included:

The team also have worked hard to extend our connections with local businesses and communities. Their work would not have been possible without the support of our wonderful volunteers.

Community support

We continue to be humbled by the support of our local community, who go above and beyond to raise funds on our behalf. From planning events, taking on sponsored challenges and to making one-off donations - we couldn’t do it without them.

Retail

We have seen a growth in our retail income and the team have developed a strong retail model at our hub. In addition to raising income, they seek to enhance sustainability by exploring how we can recycle and reuse all goods that cannot be sold. An example of this innovation was the ‘A Heart as Big as Barnsley’ sustainable clothing collection which launched in October 2022.

34

We launched our first A Heart as Big as Barnsley Campaign in October 2022.

Barnsley Hospice Annual Report 2022 - 2023

Fundraising compliance report

Barnsley Hospice employs a core fundraising team to develop, promote and run a range of fundraising campaigns, with the assistance of volunteers and the support of our local community. We communicate with our supporters and keep them informed of upcoming events using direct mail and email marketing.

We review the frequency and appropriateness of our communications and provide an option for supporters to ‘opt-out’ of our marketing communications. On some occasions, we will contact supporters using legitimate interest if it is in line with best practice and is deemed appropriate. For our weekly lottery, we have a self-exclusion form on our website for gambling-related products. Door-to-door canvassing and cash collections are done in line with the Gambling Commission and Fundraising Regulator requirements. Our lottery and raffles are promoted in line with the Gambling Commission guidelines.

We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator and work in accordance with the Code of Fundraising Practice, and the best practice laid out by the Hospice Lotteries Association, and the Institute of Fundraising.

We received 0 suppressions of contact through the Fundraising Regulator in this year.

Our supporters are very important to us, and we welcome all feedback to ensure we continually improve our fundraising activities.

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

1 Charity status

The charity is a private company, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £100 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.

The address of its registered office is: 104 - 106 Church Street Gawber Barnsley S75 2RL

These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 8 November 2023.

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Barnsley Hospice Appeal 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 notes.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity. The most recent CQC inspection gave a rating of “Outstanding” which has given trustees confidence that issues highlighted in the previous inspection have now been resolved.

Income and endowments

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 the income receivable can be measured reliably.

44

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Legacy gifts are recognised on a case-by-case basis following the grant of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been transferred to the charity.

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which it has been received. Such income is only deferred when:

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

45

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

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.

Support costs

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees' meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the 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 of the 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.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are initially recorded at cost.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate Equipment fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance Buildings over 50 years

Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are share investments initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at market value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations throughout the year.

Stock

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks.

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Donated items held in the charity shops are not included in the financial statements until they are sold or distributed on the basis that it is considered impractical to measure the fair value of donated goods.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and are recognised at the amount expected to be received less future interest.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers and are recognised at the amount expected to be received less future interest.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Foreign exchange

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are reported at the rates of exchange prevailing at that date.

The results of overseas operations are translated at the average rates of exchange during the period and their balance sheets at the rates ruling at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising on translation of the opening net assets and results of overseas operations are reported in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to noncontrolling interests as appropriate).

Other exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they arise except for:

1) exchange differences on transactions entered into to hedge certain foreign currency risks (see above);

2) exchange differences arising on gains or losses on non-monetary items which are recognised in other comprehensive income; and

3) in the case of the consolidated financial statements, exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognised in other comprehensive income and reported under equity.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charity to fund in respect of the year. The charity also contributes to the NHS defined benefit scheme for members of staff with NHS pension scheme membership. It is not possible to identify the charity’s share of assets in this scheme and therefore contributions are accounted for as if they were made to a defined contribution scheme.

For defined contribution pension schemes and employees in the NHS pension scheme the amount charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in respect of pension costs and other retirement benefits is the contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.

48

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the charity, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement.

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Critical areas of judgement:

Depreciation of hospice - the policy has been set to depreciate the property over 50 years by the trustees at the date the project builds were complete. By nature of the building, specifically designed for the needs of the Hospice, this period may exceed the requirement of the Hospice in its present form. The current trustees are satisfied with the basis of the estimation and its calculation.

Donated goods and services.

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the SORP 2019, general volunteer time is not recognised – refer to the Trustees’ Annual Report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Lottery income

Lottery income is recognised in the period to which it relates.

Event income

Event income is recognised when the event has occurred.

Operating leases

Rentals under operating leases are charged on a straight-line basis over the lease term, even if the payments are not made on such a basis. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are similarly spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

20 Pension and other schemes

The company operates 2 pension schemes

National Health Superannuation Scheme

The hospice is an admitted body for the purposes of the National Health Service Superannuation Scheme and members of staff who are former NHS employees are able to continue membership of the Scheme during their employment at Barnsley Hospice.

The assets of the scheme are held separately by the National Health Service Superannuation Scheme.

Contributions to the scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities so as to spread the cost of pensions over employees working lives. This pension scheme does not have a real pension fund but as a statutory scheme, benefits are fully guaranteed by the government. Contributions from both members and employers are paid to the exchequer, which meet the cost of increasing benefits each year by the rate of inflation. This extra cost is not met by contributions from the scheme members or employers.

As a result of the nature of the pension scheme, there are no separately identifiable assets and liabilities which can be identified as relating to Barnsley Hospice therefore, the scheme has been accounted for as a defined contribution scheme.

The pension cost charge for the year amounted to £146,986 (2022 £115,544). An amount of £20,705 (2022: £20,322) is included in creditors, being the outstanding contributions to the scheme at the balance sheet date.

Corporate Pension Scheme

The corporate pension scheme is operated by Royal London. Employee contributions are collected by Barnsley Hospice and with the employers contributions passed to Royal London. All of the assets of the scheme are held by Royal London. As a result there are no separately identifiable assets or liabilities which can be identified as relating to Barnsley Hospice. Therefore the scheme has been accounted for as a defined contribution scheme.

The pension cost charge for the year amounted to £97,247 (2022: £88,023). An amount of £nil (2022: £Nil) is included in creditors, being the outstanding contributions to the scheme at the balance sheet date.

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

1 Charity status

The charity is a private company, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £100 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.

The address of its registered office is: 104 - 106 Church Street Gawber Barnsley S75 2RL

These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 8 November 2023.

2 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Barnsley Hospice Appeal 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 notes.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity. The most recent CQC inspection gave a rating of “Outstanding” which has given trustees confidence that issues highlighted in the previous inspection have now been resolved.

Income and endowments

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 the income receivable can be measured reliably.

44

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Legacy gifts are recognised on a case-by-case basis following the grant of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been transferred to the charity.

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which it has been received. Such income is only deferred when:

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

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.

Support costs

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees' meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the 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 of the 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.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are initially recorded at cost.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate Equipment fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance Buildings over 50 years

Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are share investments initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at market value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations throughout the year.

Stock

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Donated items held in the charity shops are not included in the financial statements until they are sold or distributed on the basis that it is considered impractical to measure the fair value of donated goods.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business and are recognised at the amount expected to be received less future interest.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers and are recognised at the amount expected to be received less future interest.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Foreign exchange

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are reported at the rates of exchange prevailing at that date.

The results of overseas operations are translated at the average rates of exchange during the period and their balance sheets at the rates ruling at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising on translation of the opening net assets and results of overseas operations are reported in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity (attributed to noncontrolling interests as appropriate).

Other exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they arise except for:

1) exchange differences on transactions entered into to hedge certain foreign currency risks (see above);

2) exchange differences arising on gains or losses on non-monetary items which are recognised in other comprehensive income; and

3) in the case of the consolidated financial statements, exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognised in other comprehensive income and reported under equity.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charity to fund in respect of the year. The charity also contributes to the NHS defined benefit scheme for members of staff with NHS pension scheme membership. It is not possible to identify the charity’s share of assets in this scheme and therefore contributions are accounted for as if they were made to a defined contribution scheme.

For defined contribution pension schemes and employees in the NHS pension scheme the amount charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in respect of pension costs and other retirement benefits is the contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.

Barnsley Hospice Appeal

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the charity, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place. If the market is not active and recent transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique.

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement.

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Critical areas of judgement:

Depreciation of hospice - the policy has been set to depreciate the property over 50 years by the trustees at the date the project builds were complete. By nature of the building, specifically designed for the needs of the Hospice, this period may exceed the requirement of the Hospice in its present form. The current trustees are satisfied with the basis of the estimation and its calculation.

Donated goods and services.

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the SORP 2019, general volunteer time is not recognised – refer to the Trustees’ Annual Report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Lottery income

Lottery income is recognised in the period to which it relates.

Event income

Event income is recognised when the event has occurred.

Operating leases

Rentals under operating leases are charged on a straight-line basis over the lease term, even if the payments are not made on such a basis. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are similarly spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

20 Pension and other schemes

The company operates 2 pension schemes

National Health Superannuation Scheme

The hospice is an admitted body for the purposes of the National Health Service Superannuation Scheme and members of staff who are former NHS employees are able to continue membership of the Scheme during their employment at Barnsley Hospice.

The assets of the scheme are held separately by the National Health Service Superannuation Scheme.

Contributions to the scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities so as to spread the cost of pensions over employees working lives. This pension scheme does not have a real pension fund but as a statutory scheme, benefits are fully guaranteed by the government. Contributions from both members and employers are paid to the exchequer, which meet the cost of increasing benefits each year by the rate of inflation. This extra cost is not met by contributions from the scheme members or employers.

As a result of the nature of the pension scheme, there are no separately identifiable assets and liabilities which can be identified as relating to Barnsley Hospice therefore, the scheme has been accounted for as a defined contribution scheme.

The pension cost charge for the year amounted to £146,986 (2022 £115,544). An amount of £20,705 (2022: £20,322) is included in creditors, being the outstanding contributions to the scheme at the balance sheet date.

Corporate Pension Scheme

The corporate pension scheme is operated by Royal London. Employee contributions are collected by Barnsley Hospice and with the employers contributions passed to Royal London. All of the assets of the scheme are held by Royal London. As a result there are no separately identifiable assets or liabilities which can be identified as relating to Barnsley Hospice. Therefore the scheme has been accounted for as a defined contribution scheme.

The pension cost charge for the year amounted to £97,247 (2022: £88,023). An amount of £nil (2022: £Nil) is included in creditors, being the outstanding contributions to the scheme at the balance sheet date.
