Welcome Welcome from our Chair, Liam Kelly The Police Treatment Centres is a much-needed lifeline Charity for Serving ond Retired Police Officers together with Police Staff from across the United Kingdom. In both our residential sites in Harrogate and Auchterorder, donors will receive world class physiotherapy and psychological treatment in a safe, relaxing. and secure environment. Over the past eight years in my role as Chair. it has been a real privilege to be actively involved in the strategic side of that support and expand the remit of the Charity, ensuring it remains relevant in the Policing Landscape. With the encourogement of my fellow trustees ond the ongoing commitment of our wonderful staff, we are collectively striving to maintain and enhance our position as a Centre of Excellence. We recognise the importonce of working in partnership with other organisations and in 2025 we continued to work collaboratively with Thrive and Notional Heolth Police Care to ensure officers receive the best care possible. The Charity is constantly adapting to changes and in 2025 began work on its digital strategy which will improve the overoll experience for our beneficiaries. The first stoge was to digitise the booking and treatment process which has just gone live in April 2026. Key to this is the ability to record outcome measures digitally will allow is to receive earlier insights into any trends and will be able to respond more effectively and efficiently. We will continue with our digital strategy and will be releasing an app to support beneficiaries during 2026 2025 was the second year of operating the Women's Healthcare Programme. Demand has increased significontly ond demonstrates how we ore meeting the chonging needs of the Policing world. However, the infrastructure, support and services ore primarily reliont upon mointoining a strong donor base. It is a reality that currently less than 500 of those eligible within the various Police Services choose not to donate, and so they cannot readily access the first-class treatment offered by the PTC. Therefore, I would ask that you encourage your fellow colleagues to sign up to the PTC. especially those in newer eligible roles. In addition, I would also urge Officers to attend the Centres when they need it, and not suffer ill health throughout their careers. Invoriobly, the very nature of policing duties will unfortunately result in them, at some point in their career. needing the essential support and treatment interventions we can offer.

Trustee Induction and Training
With the increasing size and complexity of The Police Treatment Centres it is important that the Trustees have the necessary skills and experience to both fulfil their legal duties and ensure that the appropriate management and internal controls are in place for the charity’s efficient running. The Trustees review both their membership and their performance regularly and training or professional advice is used as appropriate.
When a new Trustee is appointed they have an induction meeting with the Chief Executive. This covers all the activities of the Charity, future strategy and their legal responsibilities and duties. An annual Trustee Training Day was run for the Trustees by an external trainer in June 2025. Further appropriate training is organised if required.
The charity appointed Patrick Cairns to the position of Chief Executive (CEO) in June 2014. The CEO is appointed to manage the day-to-day running of the organisation and provide support to the Trustees in the strategic direction. To discharge this function the CEO works closely with his senior management team. The senior management team consists of Peter Moore (Chief Finance Manager), Helen Leadon (Human Resources Manager), Sarah Ward (Clinical Director), Janine Green (Centre Manager Harrogate) and Stuart Grant (Centre Manager Scotland).

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (Including Directors’ Report and Strategic Report) For the Year Ended 31 December 2025
The Trustees have the following sub-committees to assist their operation:
Finance and Human Resources Committee
This committee meets on a quarterly basis and oversees financial performance and human resources issues.
Investment Sub-Committee
This sub-committee meets twice a year to oversee the performance of the investment portfolio and its managers.
Public Benefit
The Police Treatment Centres is a Charity working for serving police officers, retired police officers and police staff. The Trustees confirm they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on Public Benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
All our charitable activities focus on improving the health and wellbeing of serving police officers, retired police officers and police staff and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for public benefit.
Our objects and funding limit the services provided to serving and retired police officers in the North of England, North Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland as well as British Transport Police, the Civil Nuclear Constabulary and the Ministry of Defence Police. The number of serving police officers and staff in this catchment area is now approximately 147,000 and the number of serving and retired Police officers making the voluntary donation is around 60,000. During 2025, The Police Treatment Centres provide residential support for 3,930 beneficiaries (this figure includes 700 wellbeing breaks).
Demand for services is prioritised firstly to serving Police Officers who have a clinical need which is endorsed by a medical practitioner and is also based on an assessment by the charity’s clinical teams.
Every officer in the Charity’s catchment area who donates to the charity is eligible to apply for treatment. The eligibility policy is available from the website (www.thepolicetreatmentcentres.org).
Further information about the direct beneficiaries of the charity’s services is provided in the Annual Report. However, the impact of the Charity’s work goes beyond those helped directly and includes reducing the distress suffered by families and friends of the injured and ill officers, through to a positive impact on the efficiency of police forces within the Charity’s catchment areas.
The main areas of charitable activity are the provision of intensive physiotherapy treatment; fitness and strength classes; psychological support together with advice and education.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
TRUSTEES’ REPORT
(Including Directors’ Report and Strategic Report) For the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Strategic Report
Financial and Operational Review 2025
The Police Treatment Centres has posted strong financial results for 2025
despite the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. The total operating surplus for the Charity in 2025 from unrestricted and endowed funds was £296,185 which was a small increase from 2024 where the operating surplus was £257,534.
These outcomes were in line with financial predictions with the surplus mainly resulting from a legacy of £230,123 from the sale of a house together with contracts with Immigration Enforcement and Border Force.
In 2013, the Charity set up a lottery, initially aimed predominantly at retired officers although it is open to all officers and has proved to be successful. The gross income from the lottery during the year was £123,062. This was a slight increase in the year although it was in line with predictions and is a result of the marketing of the lottery and participants who see the value in supporting the Charity.
The total funds on the balance sheet increased from £32,866,279 in 2024 to £33,455,717 in 2025.
Whilst it appears the Charity has significant funds, it must be emphasised that the majority of this relates to the property owned and occupied by the Charity and used to deliver treatment. The breakdown from the total funds is as follows:
-
i. £6,222,942 is the value of the property at Castlebrae in Auchterarder, Perthshire;
-
ii. £12,192,778 is the value of the property at St Andrews in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. This property is classified as being permanently endowed;
-
iii. £55,000 is the value of restricted funds;
-
iv. £5,647,340 is the value of our investments at the end of the year; the Charity requires these assets as they generate dividends which support the running costs of the Charity;
-
v. This leaves a balance of £9,573,583 of unrestricted assets which represents one year’s running costs of the Charity.
Investment Income
During the year the Charity investment income decreased from £482,374 to £443,840. The main reason for the reduction was decrease in interest rates during 2025 which is likely to continue in 2026.
Support Costs
Support costs (including governance costs) decreased from £1,012,735 to £941,773.
Fundraising
We raise a small percentage of our funds from the public and our aim is to ensure we do this in both a respectful and compelling way that is consistent with our values. The charity is a member of the Institute of Fundraising and supports its purpose and activities. All fundraising conducted on behalf of the charity, whether by committees, volunteers or staff,' must comply with the Fundraising Regulator and The Code of Fundraising Practice together with all relevant legislation. The Trustees are not aware of any failure in complying with the new Code and legislation.
The charity operates a small lottery which in 2025 generated £123,062 during 2025. The lottery is fully licenced with the Local Authority. The Charity generates income through its trading arm through Bed and Breakfast, facility hire together with hiring its pools to a local swimming club.
The charity did not employ a professional fundraiser nor any commercial participator in fundraising in the year. The charity has received no complaints about its fundraising activity in the year. The charity insists that all members of the public will not be subject to fundraising activity that is an unreasonable intrusion on that person's privacy, is unreasonably persistent, or places undue pressure on a person to give money or other property.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (Including Directors’ Report and Strategic Report) For the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Achievement and Performance indicators
The Charity widened the eligibility for receiving treatment to include police staff during 2024. This is a positive step providing equality within the police, allowing all staff to now receive first class treatment as long as they are donors to the Charity. As word spreads we are beginning to see an increase in uptake of Police staff attending for treatment.
2025 was a positive year with the Charity treating 3,231 residential patients. Of these, 2,729 were serving officers who attended either the Physiotherapy Programme or the Psychological Wellbeing Programme which, when the cost benefit ratio calculated by the Robert Gordon University is applied, resulted in the forces in the Charity’s constituent forces benefiting to the value of £25.9million.
2025 was the second full year of providing Online Women’s Health Programme. The programme provides officers with access to fitness, nutrition and wellbeing advice from a multidisciplinary team of professionals. Over 90% of appointments have been for support relating to menopause and peri-menopause. This has provided a valuable resource and it is anticipated that demand will increase during 2025.
During 2021 the Charity invested funds in an App developed by Thrive. This is the only App used for the support of mental health that is endorsed by the NHS. The App has now become an important component of the Psychological Wellbeing Programme.
In August 2015, the Trustees of the Charity decided to ask retired officers to donate to remain eligible for free treatment (subject to clinical need). The impact of retired officers donating continues to be extremely positive with under 11,000 retired officers now signed up as donors and the income generated during 2025 was in excess of £700,000.
The patient feedback after treatment at both Centres remains extremely positive with 95% reporting positively on items ranging from the staff to treatment received, the facilities and food. The comments on treatment range from returning patients to better physical health and better psychological health all the way to saying it has genuinely saved their life.
The Charity measures its internal performance and some of the KPI’s are listed below:
-
➢ 90% of all officers were offered their first date for treatment within two weeks of their application being received at The Police Treatment Centres;
-
➢ Occupancy across both sites was 82%; (this is based on the number of places available);
-
➢ Labour turnover was 19%. This demonstrates that employees of the Charity are committed to the work of the Charity, have bought into its ethos and feel valued.
During 2016, the Charity recognised that the income from its trading activities would make it liable to corporation tax. The Trustees of the Police Treatment Centres therefore decided to set up a trading arm to maximise its income from trading. The trading arm was incorporated as PTC1898 Ltd in November 2016 and began trading on 1 January 2017 to keep it in line with the accounting period of the Charity. The financial results in 2025 were positive with profits increasing from £217,615 to £235,926. Profits for 2025 exceeded targets mainly due to increased business for Bed & Breakfast together with increased income from swimming schools who increased their hours and facility hire as we are beginning to see repeat business.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
TRUSTEES’ REPORT
(Including Directors’ Report and Strategic Report) For the Year Ended 31 December 2025
Future Plans
The Charity has created a stable footing from which it can move forward and provide support to children who have a lost a parent throughout their education. The key objectives for 2026 are:
-
To continue its awareness campaign to increase the number of Police Officers and Staff that are donating to the charity
-
To continue implementing its digital strategy
-
To improve the real estate in Castlebrae with a extended sensory garden
-
To review the treatment it provides to enhance the support we provide
The Investment Policy
The investment policy agreed by the Board of Trustees is to increase income in line with inflation while preserving the real value of capital sums invested. The breakdown, nature of investment and investment policy has been agreed with the Trustees of The Police Treatment Centres Investment Sub-Committee and The Police Treatment Centres Finance and Human Resources Committee. The Trustees have placed restrictions on the Investment Manager’s authority and the investment policy will be continually monitored and reviewed at six monthly intervals.
During 2025 the portfolio was put out for tender. Several companies put in a tender with a shortlist presenting to a select group of the Board and a specialist panel. Cazenove retained the portfolio and our investments remain in a multi asset fund.
There was an unrealised gain of £311,484 (2024: gain of £366,049) on investments for 2025. These positive results were achieved despite the volatility in the market caused predominantly by the war in both the Ukraine and the Middle East.
The Reserves Policy
As at the end of the 2025 financial year, the Group had total funds of £33,691,643 (2024: £33,083,894), of which £55,000 (2024: £156,490) were restricted and £12,192,778 (2024: £12,401,620) were related to permanent endowment funds. PTC’s free reserves were £12,691,300 (2024: £12,514,025). The reserves policy agreed by the Board of Trustees is to maintain freely available reserves to cover twelve month’s running costs, which is approximately £7.6 million. As a result of the strong financial performance in 2025 the PTC has, in line with last year’s report, retained one year’s running costs. The annual increase in the reserves is in line with the Charity’s five year financial plan. The Charity requires this level of reserves because it does not have a guaranteed income and because there is a statutory duty to provide for its employees. This figure is deemed sufficient to meet any foreseeable short term funding requirements and takes into account the investment policy relating to the assets invested within the designated funds. It also takes account of the ready availability of those assets. The reserves policy will be continually monitored and reviewed at twelve monthly intervals.
Financial Summary
2025 was a positive year financially for the Charity despite the wars in Ukraine and the middle East with a surplus before other recognised gains and losses of £277,954 (2024: £120,252). Income increased in 2025 mostly because of a legacy received by the Charity and signing contracts for treatment with both Immigration Enforcement and Border Force. Income from trading activities continued to outperform budget with increased income from Bed & Breakfast, Swim Schools and the hire of meeting facilities. The 2025 surplus will be reinvested back into patient care together with retaining thrive. The Charity has been able to set aside money to finance its Asset Management Plan and Estates Strategy, together with making provision to ensure it has maintained reserves of one year’s running costs.
Pay Policy for Key Management Personnel
The Charity has a process of periodically reviewing the salaries of both employees and that of senior managers. The remuneration of the senior management is evaluated by the Finance and Human Resources committee and, where appropriate, the full Board.
Page 13
Document ID: d2a58c8964ddc49331591bb05e7135aafcb1b177dfb369f7af807aa3b4a331e0
The key management personnel are considered to be the senior leadership team consisting of Patrick Cairns (Chief Executive Officer), Peter Moore (Chief Finance Manager), Helen Leadon (Human Resources Manager), Sarah Ward (Clinical Director), Janine Green (Centre Manager Harrogate) and Andy Malcolm (Executive Officer Scotland). During the year Andy Malcolm left the charity and was replaced by Stuart Grant.
Employees and Volunteers
The Charity has 180 permanent staff, both full and part time. This is supplemented by five volunteers and a number of bank workers who support the Charity across the two sites. Our employees are the key to our success allowing us to deliver a high level of customer service across our activities.
The Charity would not be able to function without the experience and commitment of its employees and volunteers and the Trustees would like to express their sincere thanks to them all.
The Charity respects the dignity and rights of all employees and volunteers. It:
-
provides clear and fair terms of employment;
-
provides clean, health and safe working conditions;
-
strives for equal opportunities for all present and potential employees;
-
actively encourages employees to develop and improve their skills;
-
does not tolerate any sexual, physical or mental harassment of our employees;
-
does not discriminate on grounds of colour, ethnic origin, gender, age, religion, political or other opinion, disability or sexual orientation;
-
regularly asks for feedback from staff about how the Charity can improve their working lives; and
-
has a policy of equal opportunities and fair employment practices for disabled staff.
Risk Management
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises a quarterly review of any key risks to the Charity. The strategy identifies and establishes systems and actions to mitigate those risks and implement procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise. The Charity maintains a Risk Register which covers significant risks using the accepted criteria of likelihood of occurrence and potential impact on the Charity’s activities.
This register was prepared in conjunction with management of the PTC and is kept under review by the Finance and Human Resources Committee with a formal update and review to the full Board being performed on an annual basis. Following a detailed analysis of the Charity’s operations, key risks were then documented and, where necessary, plans to mitigate them have been introduced.
A great deal of time is spent to ensure the Charity’s Health and Safety standards are among the highest in the sector. Health and Safety is discussed at every Trustees’ meeting and other meetings when relevant. All employees are given appropriate training and consultants are used to assist with this process and add an alternative perspective when required.
The incidence of accidents to either staff or patients is very low and our objective is to maintain and improve on this record. In addition to investigating any incidents, potential problems or near misses are also analysed and our operations are reviewed on a regular basis by qualified personnel.
Post Balance Sheet Events
There were no material post balance sheet events up to the date of approval of the financial statements.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (Including Directors’ Report and Strategic Report) For the Year Ended 31 December 2025

State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue its business.
Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements (continued)
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper 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
Following a competitive tender process, BHP LLP were appointed as statutory auditor from 2025. Sumer Auditco Limited were appointed as auditor to the company following BHP LLP becoming part of the Sumer Group on 31 December 2025, which required a change in audit firm to comply with applicable regulatory requirements. In accordance with section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006, Sumer Auditco Limited are deemed to be reappointed annually.
Statement of disclosure of information to auditor
The Trustees confirm that, at the date of the approval of these financial statements, so far as they are each aware:
-
there is no relevant audit information of which the Charity’s auditor is unaware; and
-
they have taken all the steps they ought to have taken as Trustees in order to make themselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the Charity’s auditor is aware of that information.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Police Treatment Centres (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2025, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities, the consolidated balance sheet, the company balance sheet, the consolidated statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and parent charitable company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025, and of the group’s incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulations 6 and 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
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 responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent 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.
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 group and parent charitable company’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 trustees' 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. 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

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
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 the audit:
-
the information given in the trustees' report which includes the strategic report and the directors’ report prepared for the purposes of company law for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the strategic report and the directors’ report included within the trustees' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report and the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate and proper accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the parent charitable company’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes 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 group and parent charitable company’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 group or parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with the Acts and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES
(A company limited by guarantee)
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE POLICE TREATMENT CENTRES (CONTINUED)
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.
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:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the group and parent charitable company through discussions with management and trustees, and from our knowledge and experience of this organisation;
-
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the group and parent charitable company, including the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, data protection, health and safety legislation, CQC regulations and employment law;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and trustees;
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit of the group and parent charitable company.
We assessed the susceptibility of the group and parent charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by;
-
making enquiries of management and trustees as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risks of fraud through management bias and override controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected variances;
-
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
-
assessed whether judgments and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in note 3 were indicative of potential bias; and
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The charity's activities focus on the provision of rehabilitation and support to serving and retired police officers.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The Police Treatment Centres 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.
The Consolidated statement of financial activities (SOFA) and Consolidated balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the charity and its wholly owned subsidiary undertaking, PTC 1898 Limited. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis.
The charity has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of financial activities in these financial statements.
The financial statements are prepared in pounds Sterling ("£"), which is the functional currency of the Charity.
2.2 Going concern
Due to the strong position of the balance sheet and level of liquid resources, the Trustees have identified no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt over the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern.
2.3 Income
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Group is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy and receipt is probable. Incoming resources are stated gross of expenditure. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when the revenue recognition criteria are met.
Donated assets are included at the value to the Group where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included.
Income from the charity shop is included in the year in which it is receivable.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 Income (continued)
Income from B&B lettings is included in the year in which the service is provided.
Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which the revenue recognition criteria are met.
Legacies are included when the Group is advised the receipt is probable and the amount involved can be quantified and the Group is entitled to the income.
Officer’s donations previously recorded as donations have been reclassified to Charitable Activities Income, as these amounts directly support the group’s programmes rather than representing unrestricted voluntary income. Management charges previously included within Donations have been reclassified to Other Income, as they relate to recoveries of management services provided. These changes affect presentation only and do not impact total income or funds.
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the probability of receipt and the ability to estimate with sufficient accuracy the amount receivable. Evidence of entitlement to a legacy exists when the charity has sufficient evidence that a gift has been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid will and the death of the benefactor) and the executor is satisfied that the property in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estate. Receipt of a legacy must be recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair value of the amount receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the charity, can be reliably measured.
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Expenditure on raising funds comprises the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes including the charity's shops in each of the two reception areas.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Group 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 are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management. These costs are allocated on the basis of time spent on these activities.
Governance costs are those costs incurred in connection with the administration of the Group and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Group; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.6 Intangible assets and amortisation
Intangible assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable, and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life.
Amortisation is provided on the following basis:
- Computer software 10% straight line
2.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
- Freehold buildings 2% straight line Freehold land - No depreciation charged Motor vehicles - 25% straight line - Fixtures and fittings 10% - 33% straight line
On transition to FRS 102 in 2015, the Group adopted the transition exemption to use the revalued amount of its freehold land and buildings as the new 'deemed cost' and not adopt a policy of revaluation going forward.
2.8 Investments
Investments held as fixed assets are revalued at mid-market value at the balance sheet date and the gain or loss taken to the Consolidated statement of financial activities.
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.

2.9 Debtors and creditors receivable/payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
2.10 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
2.11 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of past events.
2.12 Taxation
The Charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within sections 472-489 of the Corporation Tax Act 2011 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.
2.13 Operating leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated statement of financial activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.14 Pensions
The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The pension costs charged in the financial statements represent the contributions payable by the Group during the year.
2.15 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Group and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment
Estimates and judgments 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 charity 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 judgment:
Income recognition
The financial statements include accrued income of £420,633 (2024: £517,062) in respect of management's estimate of officers' donations pledged but not yet remitted to the organisation as at the reporting date. The amount of income due is calculated based on management's estimate of the number of officers donating. The differences between expected income and amounts remitted in the period is recognised as accrued income.

12. Staff costs (continued)
The average number of persons employed by the charity during the year was as follows:
| Professional medical staff Support staff |
Group 2025 No. 36 80 116 |
Group 2024 No. 35 79 |
|---|---|---|
| 114 |
Some staff employed by The Police Treatment Centre (PTC) also have responsibilities for the management and administration of The Police Children's Charity, a charity which operates from the same premises. Their employment costs are, therefore, apportioned between the two charities on a time basis. A management charge is then raised from PTC to The Police Children's Charity to recharge the costs involved. The total management charge covering personnel and establishment costs for 2025 was £270,000 inclusive of VAT (2024: £270,000). Of this amount £204,500 (2024: £204,500) related to personnel costs. The employment costs above incorporate the total staff costs before the recharge of personnel costs to The Police Children's Charity.
Included in staff costs this year is a temination payment of £16,409 paid to one employee (2024: £nil).
The number of employees whose employee benefits (excluding employer pension costs) exceeded £60,000 was:
| Group | Group | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| No. | No. | |
| In the band £60,001 - £70,000 | 1 | 2 |
| In the band £80,001 - £90,000 | 1 | 1 |
| In the band £120,001 - £130,000 | 1 | 1 |
The total remuneration of the key management personnel of the Group, was £455,615 (2024: £455,615).
13. Trustees' remuneration and expenses
During the year, no Trustees received any remuneration or other benefits (2024 - £NIL).
During the year ended 31 December 2025, 1 Trustee received £1,321 for travel and general expenses (2024 - £nil).

19. Prior year adjustments
A prior year adjustment has been made to correct the recognition of Gift Aid on donations income, which had previously been accounted for on a cash basis rather than accrued to the period to which the donations related. The adjustment ensures income is recognised in the correct financial year. The effects of this adjustment are noted in the tables below.

| Unrestricted funds | 20,392,147 | 131,738 | 1,899 | 20,525,784 |
There is also a prior year adjustment to recognise gift aid from the subsidiary company to the parent charity as it is paid rather than in the year the profits were accrued to comply with accounting standards. There is nil impact on the group figures as a result of this adjustment.
Officer’s donations previously recorded as donations have been reclassified to Charitable Activities Income, as these amounts directly support the group’s programmes rather than representing unrestricted voluntary income. Management charges previously included within Donations have been reclassified to Other Income, as they relate to recoveries of management services provided. These changes affect presentation only and do not impact total income or funds.

20. Statement of funds (continued)
Unrestricted Funds
The general fund is for the general maintenance of The Police Treatment Centres.
The trustees have designated £300,000 from the surplus in the prior year to cover the running costs of the new Clinical wings. This fund will start to be utilised when capacity of the wings is increased.
Restricted Funds
Scottish Police Benevolent fund - income received from this fund was used on the capital expenditure needs of the Trust, specifically at the Castlebrae site.
Beach Tennis Club - income from this fund was used to fund gym and nursing equipment for the needs of the trust.
Scottish Police Federation - income from this fund was restricted towards the capital refurbishment expenditure of a wing. The wing work was completed within 2023, and the whole grant was utilised.
Energy Saving Trust - income received from Energy Saving Trust was used to fund the capital expenditure of E- bikes for the needs of the trust.
Sensory Garden- income received from the Scottish Police Benevolent Fund for the improvement and ongoing maintenance of the sensory garden.
Once a capital fund had been used for its intended restricted purpose, the amount concerned is transferred into unrestricted funds or, if in regard to capital projects at St Andrews Harrogate, to the permanent endowment fund.
Endowment Funds
The endowment fund was donated to ensure that the charity had sufficient assets to achieve its charitable objectives. Expenditure charged against this fund represents the depreciation charge on the St Andrews building.
Transfers
A transfer of £156,490 was made this year from restricted funds to unrestricted fund to release funds related to fixed asset projects that had been completed.
