INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED

We have audited the financial statements of The Martlets Hospice Limited (‘the charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Charity Balance sheet, the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs(UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of matter - Financial statements prepared on a basis other than Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 1.3 to the financial statements which explains that the directors intend to liquidate the company and therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in Note 1.3. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified any material misstatements in the strategic report and the annual trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 12, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are; to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud; to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks; and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charity.

Our approach was as follows:

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose.

THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Company Information

The Martlets Hospice Limited is a charitable company, limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The charitable company's registered number and registered office address can be found in the Legal and Administrative information section of the accounts.

The Group consists of Martlets Hospice Limited and its two subsidiaries, The Martlets Trading Co Limited and Martlets Care Limited.

1.1 Basis of Preparation

A summary of the principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty, is set out below.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and with the Companies Act 2006, The Charities Act 2011 and follows the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland ('the SORP'). The financial statements have been prepared on the historical basis except for the modification to a fair value basis for certain financial instruments as specified in the accounting policies below.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Basis of consolidation

The results of The Martlets Trading Co Limited and Martlets Care Limited have been consolidated on a line by line basis. The results for the subsidiaries are disclosed in note 15. As permitted by s408 Companies Act 2006, the Hospice has not presented its own Statement of Financial Activities and related notes.

1.3 Going concern

At the Balance Sheet date the group had net assets of £12,219,734 including cash balances of £2,666,578. On the 1st February 2024 an agreement was reached to make the group part of St Barnabas Hospice meaning the company is expected to be liquidated in due course. Due to this the trustees have made the assessment that the financial statements are prepared on a basis other than going concern.

1.4 Incoming resources

Grants are recognised as income over the period to which they relate. Any grant funding received in advance is recognised as deferred income on the balance sheet.

Legacies are recognised following probate and once there is sufficient evidence that receipt is probable and the amount of the legacy receivable can be measured reliably. Where entitlement to a legacy exists but there is uncertainty as to its receipt or the amount receivable, details are disclosed as a contingent asset until the criteria for income recognition are met.

All other incoming resources are recognised when the charity is entitled to the income, there is certainty of receipt and the monetary value can be measured with reasonable accuracy.

THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

1.5 Government grant receivable

Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met and the grants will be received.

1.6 Donated goods

Donated goods and services have not been recognised in these financial statements as it is not practicable to do so as the cost outweighs the benefit.

1.7 Resources expended and the basis of allocation of costs

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Overheads and other costs not directly attributable to particular projects are apportioned to the relevant funds on the basis of management estimates of the amount attributable to that activity in the year, either by reference to staff, time or space occupied, as appropriate.

Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly and others are apportioned on an appropriate staff basis. All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on a basis designated to reflect the use of the resources.

1.8 Fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less estimated residual value, over the expected useful life on the following basis:

At the end of each accounting period the residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and adjusted if necessary. In addition, if events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable then the carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment.

Assets under construction are not depreciated until the asset is brought into use.

Assets are written off to the Statement of Financial Activities once their net book value becomes less than £5,000.

1.9 Intangible fixed assets

Intangible fixed assets are stated at cost less amortisation. Amortisation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life as follows:

Website

Assets are written off to the Statement of Financial Activities once their net book value becomes less than £5,000.

1.10 Stock

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stock to their present location and condition.

Stock held for distribution at no or nominal consideration is measured at the lower of replacement cost and cost, adjusted where applicable for any loss of service potential.

At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stock over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.

THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

1.11 Investments

Interests in subsidiaries are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charitable company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the intity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

1.12 Financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, unless arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at k t t f i t t

1.13 Financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities are initially measured at transaction price.

1.14 Leases

Rent payable under operating leases is accounted for in the Statement of Financial Activities in equal amounts over the period of the lease.

1.15 Taxation

The Martlets Hospice Limited is registered as a charity and all its income falls within the exemptions under Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010. Any tax changed incurred by the Group is based on taxable profit for the year and included as a liability at the balance sheet date where necessary.

1.16 Deferred taxation

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the Statement of Financial Activities, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

THE MARTLETS HOSPICE LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

1.17 Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The Martlets Hospice Limited operates a defined benefit pension scheme and a defined contribution pension scheme for its staff. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

The Martlets Hospice Limited is one of many employers in the NHS Pension Scheme. It is, therefore, not possible to allocate any actuarial surplus or deficit and, consequently, contributions to the NHS Pension Scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they fall due for payment. The scheme has both defined benefits and contributions, any shortfall in the national fund being met by the Exchequer.

1.18 Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Designated funds are funds set aside by Trustees to be used for a specific purpose.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

1.19 Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Contributions to each scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Royal London: This is a defined contribution scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from Group in a fund independently administered by Royal London and the assets and liabilities of the scheme are therefore represented in the Group accounts.

NHS Superannuation Scheme: The Group makes contributions to the scheme for nursing and medical staff.

21 RESERVES

Restricted funds

Transfers to and from capital restricted funds relate to a correction made to align net book values of assets funded with restricted fund balances shown.

Hospice Development

This asset fund represents the Hospice building. It appears as a restricted fund because the original capital appeal to build the Hospice was conducted by MacMillan Cancer Support. On completion the asset was then given to the Charity with the restriction that it was to be used only as a Hospice. The expenditure shown during the year represents depreciation and rent paid to the NHS who owns the land. The Hospice building is also represented in our fixed asset schedule.

Renaissance Project

A capital grant was provided by NHS England in 2013 to create new day service facilities including a café and three multi-functional rooms. Improvements were also made to our main entrance and drugs room. Additional sums were raised from charitable trusts. The expenditure in the year represents depreciation on capital assets forming part of the appeal.
