Barnsley Hospi(e Annual Report 2024125 Financial Review The Financial (hallenge The finan(ial context remained challenging during the (ourse of the year. (onlinuing to rise beyond long-leim assumptions. We are proud to have continued delivering outslanding services, which is the (ore purpose of our mission. However, the balance of ensuring high standards of (are with finan(ial stability is made more difficult in the volatile e(onomic climale in the UK. The economic state continued to have a signifi(anl impart a(ioss the se(toi, with Hospi(e UK reporting that14% of inpatient unit beds in England were closed in December 2024. The Board of Trustees (onlinues to make necessary investments in the hospi(e workfor(e and the systems and processes that underpin our priority of providing high-quality and effedive care. Consequently. we have delivered a financial deficit in 2024125. although much lower than expe(ted, piedominanlly due to higher than budgeted legacy in(ome. The deficit for 2024125 has fallen compared to 2023124, moving from a deficit of £548,860 (2023124) to £58,930 (2024125). In light of the ongoing challenging financial (ontext and the continued investments required lo maintain high standards of (are, the trustees consider this a good yeai-on-yeai perforfflanie. However. we nole that the high lega(v incoffle re(orded in 2024125 is unlikely to be repeated on a sustainable bas15. The government's announcement of £IOOm investment in hospi(es in England over the next two years was welcomed by the trustees, However, as this grant is restii(ted to (apilal projects, we (onlinue to advo(ate for a more sustainable solution to hospice funding. Financial Performan(e 2024125 The hospice has reduced the year-on-year defi(il bv improving financial performan(e a(ioss many areas of aitivity. In summary, total income has increased by £0.96m, lo £5.OOm (£4.04m 2024}, while total expendituie has in(reased by £0.47m, to £5.06m (£4.59m), which leads to the deficit redu(ing by £0.49m to £0.06m {£0.55m). As a consequence, net reserves are £7.78m as at 31 Mar(h 2025. Total in(offle up £0.96m Total def i(it down £0.49m (haritable and (ommissioned Services In(ome Total income Irom the main NHS grant. along with other much smaller 50ur(es of NHS (ommissioned income, increased by 4.0% to £1.95m (£1.87m 2024). The lolal NHS income equates lo 38.9% of total in(ome, and only represents 50.7% of all (harilable and (ommissioned servi(e (osts, including apportioned support (osts, which highlights the significant (ommei(ial (hallenge fa(ed by the hospice fundraising team to support the total costs of all (harilable servi(es. Fundraising and Lega(y In(ome The most notable (hange in financial performan(e is the increased revenues generated from donations, grants and legacies. The hospice ha5 continued to invest and recruit specifically to target opporlunities to grow iniome from grants and donations, and the payback (onlinues to show opportunities lo improve. Tolal income a(ross all lundraising activity, in(luding donations, giants and legacies (ex(luding NHS, retail, lottery and investment ieturns), has grown by £0.84m lojust over £2m. Fundraising Costs across these a(tivities only increased by É0.02m to £0.70m, therefore, the in(reased conlribution in the year is £0.82m. although the biggest single in(iease arises due to legacy in(ome, which a((ounts for £0.66m of the in(rease. 33

The nel contribution from retail and lottery (before overhead allocation) is £0.54m, whi(h continues to be one of the highlights in trading and fundraising performance. because the hospi(e operates only one relail warehouse outlet. Investment In(ome The economi( picture for inflation remains un(ertain. but in general. inflation has fallen during the period. which has led to interest rates also decreasing, with (onsequential de(reases in interest rate returns on a year-on-year basis. Total investment returns have fallen lo £0.17m, down by £0.09m compared to the prior year. Expenditure Direit (osts of all (haiitable artivities amount lo £2.67m before allocating apportioned support (05t5. Dirert (osts of all the (ommei(ial fundraising activities amount to £0.89m. The total overhead (ost is £1.50m, which is apportioned across the main in(ome generation activities, In the year, direct expenditure on charitable servi(es amounted lo £2.67m. which is 52.8% of all costs.

We believe that Ihe audit evidence we have obtained is suffi(ient and appropiiale to provide a basis for our opinion. (on(lusions relating to going concern In auditing the finan(ial statements, we have con(luded that the trustees, use of the going con(ern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not idenlified any material un(ertainlies relating to evenls or condilions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on Ihe charitable company's ability to (ontinue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements ale authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going (otKem are described in the relevant sections of this report.

In connection with our audit of the financial slatements, our responsibility is lo read the other informalion and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially in(onsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears lo be materially misstated.11 we identify such material in(onsisten(ies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether Ihis gives rise to a material misstatemenl in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information. we are iequiied to report that fact. We have nothing to ieport in this regaid. 42

Barnsley Hospi(e Annual Report 2024125 Opinions on other matters prescribed by the (ompanies Act 2006 In our opinion. based on the work undertaken in the (ourse of the audil: the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the finan(ial statements are prepared is Consistent with the financial statefflents- and the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in ac(ordanie with applicable legal requirements. Matters on whi(h we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the (haiitable (ompany and its environment obtained in the Course of the audit. we have not identified material misstatements in Ihe Report of the Trustees. We have nothing to report in iesped of the following matters where the companies A(t 2006 requires us to report to you if. in our opinion.. adequate a(counling records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been re(eived from branihes not visited by us., or the financial statements are not in agreement with the a((ounting records and returns. or (ertain dis(losures of trustees, remuneration spe(ified by law are nol made. or we have not re(eived all the information and explanations we require for our audit., or the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small (ompany's exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Truslees. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees, Resw)nsibilities. the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable companv for the purposes of (ompany law) are responsible for the preparation of the finan(ial stalements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees delermine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatemenl, whether due to fraud 01 error. In preparing the finaniial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going (on(em and using the going (on(ein basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the (haritable (ompany or to (ease operations, or have no realistic alternative bul to do so. Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether Ihe financial slatements as a whole are free from material misslatemenl, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors Ihat includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level ol assurance but is nol a guarantee thal an audit (ondu(ted in a((ordan(e with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise fiom fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they (ould reasonably be expected to influence the e(onomi( decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-(omplianie with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our respon5ibilitie5. Outlined above. to deted material misstalements in respert of iiregularities. including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which our pro(edures are capable of delerting irregularities, in(luding fraud is detailed below..

Examining in(ome recognition including lega(ies and giants,. Reviewing minutes of meetings of those (haiged with goveman(e.

Barnsley Hospi(e Annual Report 2024125 Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, in(luding those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with iegulation. This risk increases Ihe more that Compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and Iransadions refleded in the financial statements. as we will be less likely to be(ome aware of instances of non-complian(e. The risk is also greater regarding irregularilies ￿(￿rrIng due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional (on(ealment, forgery, (ollusion, omission or misrepresentalion.

Going (on(ern The trustees (onsider that there are no material un(ertainties about the (harity's ability lo continue as a going (oncein noi any significant areas ol uncertainty that affect the (arrying value of assets held by the (harity. The most re(enl CQ( inspection gave a ialing of 'Outstanding" which has given trustees (onfidence thal issues highlighted in the previous inspection have now been resolved. In(ome and endowments All income is re(ognised on(e the (harity has entitlement lo the income. it is probable that the in(ome will be received and Ihe amount of the income receivable can be measured ieliablv. - Donations andlegacies Donations are re(ognised when Ihe charity has been notified in wilting of both Ihe amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subjert to (onditions that require a level of perfoimance by the (harity before the (haiityls entitled to the funds, the income is defeiied and not iecognised until either those conditions are fully mel, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the iontrol of the charity and it is probable that these (onditions will be lullilled in the reporling period. Legacy gifts are re(ognised on a (ase-by-(ase basis following the grant of piobate when the administratoilexecutoi for the estate has iommunicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the evenl that the gift is in the form of an asset other than (ash or a financial asset traded on a re(ognised sto(k ex(hange, re(ognition is subjert to the value of the gift being reliably measurable wilh a degree of reasonable a((ura(y and the title to the asset having been transferred to the (harity.

Such income is only deferred when: The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods. or The donor has imposed conditions which musl be met before the (harity has unconditional entitlement. - Investmentin(ome Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and nolifi(ation has been received of the dividend due.

Barnsley Hospi(e Annual Report 2024125 Notes to the Finan(ial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025 Pensions and other posl retirement obligations The charitv operates a defined contribution pension s(heme and the pension (harge iepre5ents the amounts pavable by the charity to fund in respect of the year. The charity also iontributes to the NHS defined benefit scheme for members of staff with NHS pension scheme membership. It is not possible to idenlify the charity's share ol assets in this s(heme and therefore contributions are aicounted for as if they were made to a defined (onlribution scheme. For defined (ontribution pension s(hemes and employees in the NHS pension scheme Ihe amount charged to the Statement of Financial A(tivities in respe(t of pension (osts and other retiremenl benefits is the (ontributions payable in the year. Differen(es between contributions payable in the year and contributions artually paid are shown as either a((nials or prepayments in the balance sheel. Redundancy and termination payments Redundancy and termination costs are re(ognised as an expense and a liability on the Balance Sheet immediately at the point the charity is demonstrably (ommitted lo either: • terminale the employment of an employee or group of employees before normal retirement date: or provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made in order to en(ourage voluntary redundan(y. The Hospice is considered to be demonstrably committed only when it has a plan for the termination and is without realislic possibility of withdrawal from the plan, only after exploring all avenues lo avoid redundan(v or (ontra(I termination. Financial inslruments (lassification Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a parly to the (onlractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities and equity instruments are (lassified according lo Ihe substan(e of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument Is any (onlra(t thal evidences a residual inlerest in the assels of the (harity after deducting all of its liabilities. - Recognition andmeasurement All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transadion price (in(luding transaction (osts), except foi those financial assets (lassified as at fair value through profit or loss, whi(h are initially measured at fair value (whi(h is normally the Iransa(tion pii(e ex(luding transaction (osts), unless the arrangement constitutes a linancing Iransa(tion. If an arrangement (onslilutes a finan(ing transa(tion, the financial asset or financial liabilily is measured at Ihe present value of the future payments discounted at a market iale of interest for a similar debt instrument. Finan(ial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statemenl of finan(ial position when, and only when there exists a legallv enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and Ihe (harily intends eithei to settle on a nel basis, or to iealise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Financial assets are de-recognised when and only when a) the (ontra(tual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the (harity transfers to another party substanliallv all of the Tisks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or () the (haiity, de5Plte having retained some. bul not all. signili(ant iisks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party. Finan(ial liabilitie5 are de-re(ognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is dis(harged. (ancelled 01 expires. 51

Barnsley Hospi(e Annual Report 2024125 Notes to the Finan(ial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2025 - Fair value measurement The best evidence of fair value is a quoted pri(e for an identical asset in an adive market. When quoted prices are unavailable, the price of a recent transartion for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there has nol been a signifi(ant change in economi( (ircumstan(es or a signifi(ant lapse of lime since the transartion took pla(e. If the markel is not active and recent Iransa(tions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of fair value, the fair value is estimated by using a valuation te(hnique. (ritical a((ounting estimates and areas ol judgement Estimates and judgements are (ontinually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other fadors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable undei the circumstances. Irilical a((ounting estimates and assumptions: The company make5 estimates and assumptions (oncerning the future. The Tesulting accounling estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related a(tual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a signili(ant risk of (ausing a material adjustment to the (arrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the llexl lillall(ial year are dis(ussed below. (rilical areas of judgement: Depre(iation of hospice - the policy has been sel lo depreciate the property over 50 years by the trustees at the dale the project builds were (omplete. By nature of the building, spe(ifi(ally designed for the needs ol the hospi(e, this period may exceed the requirement of the hospi(e in its present form. The (urrenl truslees are satisfied with the basis of Ihe estimalion and its calculation. Donated goods and servi(es Donated professional seivi(es and donated facilities are iecognised as incoffle when the (harity has (onliol over the item, any conditions associated with the donated Item have been mel, Ihe re(eipl ol economi( benefit from Ihe use by the (harity of the item is probable and that e(onomi( benefit can be measured reliably. In accordan(e with the charities SORP 2019 (FRS102), general volunteer time is not re(ognised refer to the Trustees, Annual Report for more information about their (ontiibution. On reieipl, donated professional serviies and donaled facilities are re(ognised on the basis of the value of Ihe gifl to the (harity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain servi(es or fa(ilities of equivalent e(onomi( benefit on the open market,. a (orresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in Ihe period of receipt. Lotlery in(ome Lotleiy income is recognised in the period to which it relates. Event in(ome Event in(ome is iecognised when the event has oc(urred. Operating leases Rentals under operating lease5 are charged on a slraight-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. 52
