Our region significantly underperforms compared to other parts of the UK {DoH {Department of Health), Health Inequalities Nl Report, 2024). Poverty rates are increasing and overall quality of life for people within our most disadvantaged communities, primarily due to preventable causes. Building Community-Pharmacy Partnership IBCPP) is currently preparing a report to demonstrate the impact of the programme which will be launched in June. The BCPP programme has evolved over the last 22 years, and we continue to use learning from the Impact Report to improve delivery of the programme, reflect CD principles, and other C&V partner roles as well as use this evidence to inform the new ICS AIPB population health planning model. The BCPP programme has invested over £7 million in local communities and Community Pharmacies, nurturing partnerships, utilising community assets and social capital to yield tangi ble community health benefits. BCPP has not only bolstered community health but also strengthened our bonds with local health providers, community partners, and the world of Pharmacy. This positions us favourably within the new integrated care system for Northern Ireland. igniting excitement for future developmental prospects and health enhancement opportunities. Initally a nine-month pilot project we have secured additional funding to deliver Elevate Community and Mentoring Grants Programme to another 22 communities until March 2025.

We have audited the financial statements of Northern Ireland Community Development Health Network Ltd (the "company") for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprises the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and the notes to the accounts, 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 FRS102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the accounts:

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 accounts section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the accounts 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 the date when the financial statements are authorised for use.

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

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other that the accounts and our auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information.

Our opinion on the accounts 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 accounts, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the accounts 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 accounts 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in 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 Trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts 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 accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Northern Ireland Community Development Health Network Ltd

Independent Auditors' Report Continued

In preparing the accounts, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to maintain reasonable assurance about whether the accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it 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 irregulaties, including fraud, is detailed below.

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company through enquiry of management, industry research and the application of cumulative audit knowledge. We identified the following principal laws and regulations relevant to the company – Companies Act 2006 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

We developed an understanding of the key fraud risks to the entity (including how fraud might occur), the controls in place to help mitigate those risks, and the accounts, balances and disclosures within the financial statements which may be susceptible to management bias. Our understanding was obtained through review of the financial statements for significant accounting estimates, analysis of journal entries, walkthrough of the key controls cycles in place and enquiry of management.

Our procedures to respond to those risks identified included, but were not limited to:

As CDHN has at some time participated in a scheme which provided a form of capital guarantee- in the event that CDHN decides to withdraw from the Growth Plan it will - by law - be required to pay any share of the deficit arising from its participation in Series 3.

The most recent estimate of the amount that CDHN would become liable for {under the conditions set out above) was provided at 30 September 2023, for the purposes of FRS102, and amounted to £10,405. The deficit has been determined by the plan actuary based on various assumptions includir)g: - the deficit contributions and employer debts that have been paid over the period; membership movements such as transfers out and members taking cash at retirement; changes in assumptions to reflect changed in insurer pricing: and increases / decreased in gilt yields. 23
