FOYLE HOSPICE

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019).

Objectives and activities

The principal activities of the Foyle Hospice are the provision of palliative and end of life care for those patients who require it, as well as providing support for their families and carers. These services, free of any cost, are delivered through Foyle Hospice’s Community Team, Day Hospice and In-Patient Care services and support.

The aims and objectives of the charity are as set out in the objects contained in the company's Memorandum of Association as well as the three-year Strategic Plan, the goals of which were, for the most part, achieved by the end of March 2023. A new strategic plan has been developed and agreed for the next three years, with effect from April 2024 – March 2027. In fulfilling its objectives, Foyle Hospice provides the following services:

In-Patient Care

The In-Patient Unit comprises 9 beds and 1 self contained apartment. Foyle Hospice supports families, friends and carers of patients to help them cope during their illness and in bereavement, in an attentive and non-intrusive way. Patients may be admitted for respite care or for pain and symptom control with a view to being discharged home. Patients are also admitted for specialist care and support in the terminal phase of their illness.

Through the In-Patient Unit the Hospice also provides a 24-hour advisory service to GP's District Nurses and others on any matters in relation to a patient's care.

Community Palliative Care Nursing Team

Foyle Hospice has a team of specialist nurses who visit patients in their homes. The Community Palliative Care Nursing Team work closely with GP's and District Nurses offering support and advice to ensure patients receive the best quality of care available. The specific needs of family and friends are also considered. A Specialty Doctor, supported by our medical team within Foyle Hospice and other professionals closely support these specialist nurses.

Day Hospice

Visits by patients to the Day Hospice offers them a change in surroundings and a chance to make new friends and relax. The Day Hospice team provide a wide range of activities during the day, including the chance to enjoy many complementary therapies on offer. Carers at home also benefit from the opportunity to have a short break from looking after an ill relative or friend.

Bereavement Support

This is an important element of hospice care and support available to relatives and friends of patients. The bereavement support sessions are facilitated by staff, supported by experienced volunteers and offer a safe, secure and comfortable environment for the users to express their feelings relating to their experience of death.

Healing Hearts is a specialist bereavement support service for young people aged 4 – 18 years and is led by a Children and Young Person's Facilitator, supported by our Children’s Counsellor.

Advice

Foyle Hospice offers 24/7 Telephone Advice service, which is available at all times for advice to GPs, district nurses, hospital staff, health care professionals, relatives and other members of the public in matters relating to Palliative and End of Life Care.

FOYLE HOSPICE

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Other Activities

During the financial year, Foyle Hospice received additional non-recurrent funding from the Strategic Planning and Performance Group (SPPG) to support continued delivery of the Integrative Care Clinic three days per week. This continues to be provided on an annual basis, but is likely to become partly or wholly core funded within the context of our revised Day Hospice model.

SPPG has also provided funding to enable the delivery of a Compassionate Communities framework across Northern Ireland, which will focus on raising awareness and education about death, dying and bereavement within communities. This project is funded to the end of March 2024 and is working towards developing and building strong relationships with agencies, organisations and groups across the entire region.

Through the Department of Health’s Cancer Charities Support Fund, administered by the Community Foundation Northern Ireland, Foyle Hospice has continued to enhance its Community Team, which is now available seven days per week, to include weekends and public holidays. Phase One of this funding has also enabled provision of adult and children counselling services and allowed us to create a Carer Health and Well Being resource. These services were originally funded until the end of March 2024, although it is anticipated that they will now extend into part of the Financial Year 2024/25.

Further funding was approved for Foyle Hospice, through Phase Three of the Department of Health’s Cancer Charities Support Fund. This includes Specialty Doctor to support the Community Team and additional resource to help deliver our ongoing Carer Support Programme, as well as Physiotherapist and Complementary Therapist services which will be offered until the end of March 2024. Again, it is envisaged that these services will extend for a short period of time beyond March 2024, due to the timeframes involved in recruitment and appointment of these posts.

Statement of compliance with Charity Commission guidance

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Volunteers

Volunteers play a key role in all services at Foyle Hospice, particularly in the provision of vital support to the IPU, Day Hospice, Bereavement Support, Fundraising and Retail. Trustees volunteer their time freely to attend regular board meetings, structured and ad hoc sub committees, as well as offering ongoing support to the Senior Management Team and the organisation as a whole.

Achievements and performance

The Board of Trustees are extremely pleased to have had yet another exceptionally positive inspection by RQIA in January 2023, with no areas of improvement or recommendations reported.

The new strategic plan will bring forward enhanced services and support frameworks, so as to greater enable patients to remain at home. We will proceed to undertake an overall review of how we deliver our Day Hospice services, with a view to closer working relationships with the Integrative Care Clinic and more nurse led clinics. We will also move to now build those two additional bed spaces at our Inpatient Unit, which are so desperately needed.

2022/23 has returned a deficit, and the Board of Trustees is well aware of the long-term financial risks and implications following a two-year global pandemic and the recent concerns associated with an ongoing cost-of-living crisis.

Whilst some costs may have remained steady, others have increased substantially (e.g., electricity and heating), which requires us to think carefully about how we are procuring and ultimately providing our services. We will continue to closely monitor and review these issues moving forward.

FOYLE HOSPICE

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The Trustees, along with the Senior Management Team, are committed to identifying opportunities whereby income streams can be increased and costs can be reduced to ensure that services are delivered in an appropriate and timely manner. We continue to actively engage with the Strategic Planning and Performance Group (SPPG) and relevant personnel within the Department of Health in this regard. We have also established good working relationships with the Department of Finance and the NI Executive All-Party Group on Terminal Illness through our membership of the Hospice Alliance NI.

Although many of the Covid-19 restrictions were eased during the course of 2022/23, there were still measures in place which resulted in challenges as to how we delivered services, raise funds and ensure adequate resources at all times. Whilst this continued to have an impact on our capacity to meet all of our objectives, we are confident that we have managed to overcome those obstacles to enable direct patient care and support under exceptional circumstances.

We will continue to provide and maintain the quality and standard of service, albeit subject to some adaptions to ensure compliance with regulations and guidelines in light of the ongoing pandemic. We also await the Strategic Planning and Performance Group’s review of the Day Hospice Model which is pending and has been delayed due to the ongoing pandemic.

Financial review

The Statement of Financial Activities indicates that the Hospice had incoming resources of £3,747,944 in the year. The expenditure for the year was £4,110,171. Which resulted in net expenditure of £362,227. Net losses on investments, including revaluation decreases on investments to market value and sterling euro exchange adjustments, resulted in the Hospice reporting total net movement in funds for the 2022/23 financial year of £672,881. As such, the Hospice's accumulated funds decreased by this amount.

Reserves policy

The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('the free reserves') held by Foyle Hospice should equate to approximately 12 months of unrestricted expenditure (approximately £3,600,000) to enable the charity to continue the current activities in the event of a significant drop in fundraising.

At 31 March 2023 the free reserves were £6,838,661 and as such the target has been achieved.

The Trustees would highlight the receipt of £164,717 in respect of Compassionate Communities and a further £183,025 through the Cancer Charities Support Fund.

Our voluntary income has yielded a lower return than expected in year and this has resulted in a significant reduction in the Hospice's free reserves at the reporting date. The Trustees are also expecting deficits of income against expenditure for 2023/24 financial year and the subsequent financial periods. The Board of Trustees are very aware of the continuous challenges post pandemic such as rising costs and inflation, which make it much more difficult to raise sufficient voluntary income. The Board of Trustees, along with the Senior Management team will closely scrutinise and monitor Foyle Hospice’s finances to ensure sustainability, so that the services remain free at the point of delivery.

This assessment is based on the non-recurring nature of some funding support received during 2022/23 and the unpredictably of fundraising activities returning to full capacity, further compounded by the impact of the cost-ofliving crisis.

Therefore, the Trustees anticipate that the free reserves will be used to ensure we maintain appropriate levels of service provision during this period.

Investment Policy

The Trustees have considered the most appropriate policy for investing funds. In the accounting year ended 31 March 2023 the Trustees continued with the management of their investment portfolio through Davy. Davy's aim is to ensure that selected securities are relatively safe and provide a reasonable yield. They will not chase high yield to the detriment of risk in the portfolio.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Risk Management

The Governance and Risk Committee works in collaboration with the Senior Management Team in relation to managing and mitigating against risk. A Risk Management Strategy is in place, alongside a comprehensive Risk Register that is reviewed on a regular basis.

This Committee has assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

Structure, governance and management

The organisation is a company Limited by Guarantee not having a share capital, incorporated on 11th October 1985 and is registered with The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.

The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

Mrs Angela McIntyre (Chairperson) Ms Patricia Blaney (Vice Chairperson) Mr Gerard O'Hara (Treasurer) Mr Gerard Guckian Mr Patrick Kelly Ms Dolores O'Reilly Ms Kathryn McIlwaine (Resigned 8 June 2022) Mr Brendan Dowdall Ms Jennifer Maloney Dr Lucinda Watt (Resigned 17 May 2022) Ms Carolann Doherty Ms Gillian King

Appointment of Trustees

The Board of Trustees can have up to 24 members but not less than 5 members. There are currently 10 Trustees. As set out in the Articles of Association, one third of the serving trustees retire at each AGM and they shall be those who have been longest in office since the last election or appointment. A retiring director shall be eligible for reelection for at least a second term of three years. The trustees shall at any time elect a new trustee by co-option and who will remain in office until the next Annual General Meeting but shall also be eligible for re-election.

Foyle Hospice undertakes an annual skills audit among Trustees in order to identify any knowledge and/or skills gaps within its membership. These skills are specific to the strategic and operational nature of the organisation. Foyle Hospice will undertake regular Trustee Recruitment Drives to achieve balance and with a view to proactive succession planning.

Trustee induction and training

From time to time, expressions of interest will facilitate recruitment of new trustees to meet the essential skill set for the Board of Trustees. Potential candidates will meet with the Chair and Vice Chairperson in the first instance for a discussion about their role, responsibilities and expectations. They will then have the opportunity to meet with the Chief Executive who will facilitate an orientation day to brief them on: their legal obligations under charity and company law, the charity commission guidance on public benefit, and inform them of the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, various committees, organisational structure and decision making process, the strategic plan and recent financial performance of the charity.

As part of the induction they will meet with Senior Management Team, key employees and other trustees. Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate and further support the undertaking of the role.

FOYLE HOSPICE

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Organisational structure

The Board of Trustees administer the charity. A Chief Executive Officer is appointed by the Trustees to manage the day-to-day operations of the charity. To facilitate effective operations, the CEO has delegated authority, within terms of delegation approved by the Trustees, for operational matters including finance and the management of the InPatient Unit, the Day Hospice, Community Team and the Income Generation and Communications Department, alongside any other projects that may be contracted to Foyle Hospice.

- Related parties and co operation with other organisations

None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. Any connection between a trustee or senior manager of the charity with a contracted supplier must be disclosed to the full Board of Trustees in the same way as any other contractual relationship with a related party. In the current year, no such related party transactions were reported. All Trustees are required to complete a Declaration of Interest Form and this is updated on an annual basis or as required subject to individual circumstances.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees, who are also the directors of Foyle Hospice for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company Law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.

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

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Auditor

Moore (NI) LLP were appointed as auditor of the company for the three year period covering 2021/22 - 2023/24 following a tender process. In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing that Moore (NI) LLP be reappointed as auditor of the company for the final year of the tender term will be put at the Annual General Meeting.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF FOYLE HOSPICE

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Foyle Hospice (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the 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 Financial Reporting Standard 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 the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

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 contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement 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 required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

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

FOYLE HOSPICE

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF FOYLE HOSPICE

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors' report included within the trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, 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 charitable company 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 the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

Extent to which 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 charitable company.

Based on our understanding of the charitable company and its operating environment, we determined that the most significant frameworks which have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements are those related to the reporting framework, (FRS 102, the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008, The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2015, the Charity SORP and the Companies Act 2006) of which non-compliance may have a material effect on the financial statements. Compliance with these laws and regulations was assessed as part of our procedures.

Other laws and regulations of which non-compliance may have a material effect on the financial statements, e.g. through fines or litigation, were identified as regulations in relation to employment law and provision of medical care services which are regulated by the RQIA. Our required procedures in these areas are limited to inquiry of trustees and other management and inspection of any regulatory or legal correspondence. These limited procedures did not identify any actual or suspected non-compliance.

FOYLE HOSPICE

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF FOYLE HOSPICE

We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, including evaluating management's incentives and opportunities to manage earnings or influence the reported results. From the results of our assessment, we determined that the principal risks of fraud relate to posting inappropriate journal entries and use of charity funds for purposes outside of restrictions imposed by the donor. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override.

Audit response to risks identified

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

We communicated relevant laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members, and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment through collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal control.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https:// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

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. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Foyle Hospice is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in Northern Ireland. The registered office is 61 Culmore Road, Derry, BT48 8JE. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland with effect from 12 December 2014.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

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

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

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes. In addition, funds may be held in order to finance capital investment and working capital.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose which would otherwise form part of the general reserve of the charity.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised at the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted; the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) that a distribution will be made; or when a distribution is received from the estate.

In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general time given by volunteers is not recognised and refer to the Trustees' Report for more information about volunteers contribution.

(Continued)

Interest on funds held on deposit is recognised when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity. This is normally on notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classed under the following activity headings:

Cost of raising funds

Comprises the cost of running the fundraising department including the cost incurrred in seeking donations, operating the weekly draw, staging events and contacting volunteers and others to raise funds on behalf of the charity and operating shops to sell donated goods.

Expenditure on Charitable Activities

Includes the costs of running the In-Patient Unit, the Day Therapy Unit and the Home Care Department and all activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Land & Buildings at Culmore Road 2% straight line Day Care Centre Culmore Road 2% straight line Office Fixtures and fittings 20% of reducing balance Shops Fixtures and fittings 20% of reducing balance Hospice Furnishings and equipment 20% of reducing balance Motor Vehicles 25% of reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

1.8 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.9 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.10 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors 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 the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.11 Taxation

The company is a charity and is recognised as such by HM Revenue & Customs under the charity tax reference XN76407. The company also qualifies for charitable tax exemptions with the Office of the Revenue Commissioner ROI Charities Section. As a result, there is no liability to taxation on any of its income.

1.12 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.13 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.14 Foreign exchange

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange prevailing at the accounting date. Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the date of the transaction and all differences are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s 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.
