RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT – CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

Rennie Grove Hospice Care (Rennie Grove) continued to provide a 24/7 planned and responsive hospice at home nursing service for patients with life-limiting illness across the Chilterns area of Buckinghamshire and in north west Hertfordshire, as well as Day Hospice Care in the Dacorum, St Albans and Harpenden districts of Hertfordshire.

The overall deficit for the period 2012/13 has been reduced by 50% to £193k. We continue to review all areas of service in order to further reduce our cost base without reducing direct patient care whilst monitoring a quality service.

Cumulatively we have reduced our cost base without reducing front line patient support. Our free reserves, which exclude the property and unlisted investments, at 31

st March 2013 fall just beneath our 3 months

minimum reserves policy.

We are pleased to report that additional funds for a pilot of £133,000 have been granted to us by the Bucks and West Herts Primary Care Trusts in 2012/13 in respect of our hospice at home service.

We continue to rely heavily on support from our local communities and other generous donors to fund the ever growing demand for our services. In particular I should like to thank the Pepper Foundation for their wonderful support for our children’s and family support services, the Hospice Lottery Partnership, and many other grant making trusts and individuals for their generosity.

We also thank our fundraising groups, the individuals who organise and participate in hundreds of wonderful fundraising events, and all our volunteers who have supported us with their expertise, time and enthusiasm.

Retail and Trading expansion over the last year has seen the number of shops increase from 14 to 20 and this generated an overall income of over £1.9m and the retail and trading was the 3

rd most profitable hospice charity

shop chain in the UK.

The majority of the assets and liabilities of the Iain Rennie Hospice at Home (IRHH) and St Albans and Dacorum Day Hospice, trading as Grove House (GH) transferred to the newly named Rennie Grove as at 31 March 2013.

We continue to look after more patients even though the financial climate remains challenging. We still need to achieve a breakeven position and the Senior Management Team have continued to review all areas of service in order to achieve this.

I would like to thank Steve Cuthbert, retiring Chairman, for more than 6 years of exceptionally hard work and diligence as Chair of Rennie Grove. Steve saw the charity through a period of major internal and external development, and his efforts kept the direction of the Charity both positive and stable. He is owed an immense debt for all that he has done.

Mary Groves became an MBE in the New Year Birthday Honours list in 2013, partly in recognition for all that she has achieved in the development and progress of Grove House. Grove House is a wonderful asset for our clients in Hertfordshire, and we will be working hard to continue to improve its functions and its availablity, not only to those with cancer, but we hope to extend its role to others with non-malignant life threatening illnesses. We congratulate Mary on her great achievement.

We welcomed Jenny Provin in January as our new Chief Executive. Jenny came from the Institute of Cancer Research, London, where she occupied a senior position as Director of Corporate Development and Planning. She had had previous experience of Hospice Care as a Trustee of the Princess Alice Hospice in Surrey. I am sure Jenny will take us forward with great resolve and lots of initiative.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT – CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

The Senior Management Team have, once again, been pivotal in developing our new internal structures, adapting to new IT equipment, new offices in Tring and working with the Chief Executive to provide plans for a balanced budget, without which it is hard to move forward. They work extremely hard, and also closely with the Board of Trustees, who are all very actively engaged in the organisation, chairing sub-committees, providing expertise, and putting in many hours during the year. The Trustees input has been invaluable.

We continue to be greatly indebted to all our clinical teams who do such a remarkable job. They are working under more and more pressure as the demand for our services continue to increase. They manage to perform their caring duties to a very high standard and continue to be the best possible advertisement for the charity. Thanks also to the support staff who do so much, mainly behind the scenes, without which, once again, we could not function.

Finally, a word to thank and praise the 1500 volunteers who work so hard for us, some amazingly hard, and some for incredibly long! Not only do they bring support and advice from so many different walks of life, their enthusiasm is infectious. They make a huge difference to what we can achieve and we are all extremely grateful to each and every one of them.

This is a superb charity and I am so proud to have the opportunity of helping it go from strength to strength.

Stephen Spiro 5 September 2013

VISION Our Vision is that every adult and child within our area can choose how and where they want to be cared for towards the end of life, knowing that they will receive high quality specialist care

INTRODUCTION Rennie Grove provides a high quality service that is responsive to patient and carer needs: our model of care acknowledges and respects patients’ needs and choices when living with life-limiting illness. The charity is also committed to providing supportive care for relatives and carers both pre- and post-bereavement through the work of our Family Support Team.

In line with the UK’s independent hospice movement, Rennie Grove’s services are provided at no cost to patients or their families. Our nurses and clinicians provide specialist care as well as practical, hands-on nursing care for patients of any age, both adults and children, with a range of terminal and life-threatening illnesses. Our hospice at home service continues to operate on a 24 hour, responsive on-call basis, providing patient visits as well as advice over the telephone out of hours. All our services continued to reflect our commitment to offering patients choice about where they are cared for and where they wish to die. Rennie Grove is most grateful to the huge army of over 1,500 local volunteers who donate their time and expertise across every area of the organisation from patient care to helping in our shops.

Rennie Grove is reliant on local fundraising and hospice shops for approximately 85% of the costs of our care. Despite the huge generosity of local supporters helping with our fundraising and hospice shops, Rennie Grove income generation continued to be adversely impacted by the economic situation during the period with sponsorship at major events and corporate income being particularly affected. The charity ended the period with a £193,000 deficit.

CHARITABLE PURPOSE Rennie Grove’s charitable purposes are set out in the objects contained in the company’s Memorandum of Association. In Section 4, the objects are defined as “the relief of sickness” and this is further defined in relation to the charitable purposes through a series of more detailed objects. The objects all support the charity’s purpose which is the provision of a specialist palliative nursing care service to patients with life-limiting illness. This report looks in detail at the services we provide and at what we have achieved. It also helps us ensure our aim, objectives and activities remain focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities.

PUBLIC BENEFIT The focus of our work is the provision of four main services: our Hospice at Home Service for Adults, our Hospice at Home Service for Children, our Day Hospice Service and our Family and Bereavement Support Service. The achievements of these services are set out in detail later in this report.

All our services are provided at no cost to members of the public who meet our referral criteria: that they have been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness and are registered with, and have a referral from, a General Practitioner operating in the Chilterns area of Buckinghamshire or the Dacorum, St Albans and Harpenden districts of Hertfordshire.

Our Hospice at Home Service for adults and children enables us to provide specialist care at home for members of the public of any age suffering from a terminal or life-limiting illness.

Our Day Hospice Care supports patients with advancing illness to control symptoms and learn coping strategies, enabling them to live independently at home for longer.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

Our Family and Bereavement Support Service is available to patients, families and carers in Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire who have been affected by life-limiting illness.

THE HOSPICE AT HOME ADULT NURSING SERVICE The Rennie Grove Hospice at Home Adult Nursing Service is delivered by five locality teams operating in High Wycombe, South Bucks, Ridgeway, Dacorum and St Albans & Harpenden plus a dedicated overnight team.

The Service employs around 50 nurses with a range of skills. Our Clinical Nurse Specialists assess patients, offer advice and guidance on medication and treatment. These nurses work alongside other trained and experienced community hospice nurses who are able to provide more hands-on care. Health Care Assistants play an important part in enabling patients to remain at home by providing practical, personal and supportive care.

Responses to patient and carer surveys show that people continue to place a high value on our 24 hour responsive on-call service. Evidence from Clinical Audit demonstrates that our round-the-clock service plays a crucial part in supporting patients and their carers at home.

Rennie Grove continued to work collaboratively with a range of hospice and NHS providers to support patients to stay at home.

We are keen in particular to acknowledge the professional medical support our nurses receive from the NHS Palliative Care consultants in Buckinghamshire and The Hospice of St Francis in Hertfordshire.

Rennie Grove continues to deliver significant parts of the government’s End of Life Care Strategy and our services are completely in line with the strategy’s aims of providing the services people need to enable them to be cared for at home and to die there if that is their choice.

THE PEPPER CHILDREN’S NURSING SERVICE Our Children’s Nursing Team provides supportive care and respite for children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses. Many of these young patients have complex conditions other than cancer which require our nurses to deploy a wide range of skills and experience. The Children’s Nursing Team continues to care for increasing numbers of children at the end of their lives and this remains an important part of our work.

The last evaluation of the Children’s service confirmed that it is greatly valued by the families who benefit from our care. In particular, the respite element of the service provides parents and carers with essential breaks from their unrelenting caring responsibility. There has also been acknowledgement of the immense value placed upon 24 hour availability of nurses for advice and support.

Improving the integration of services for children in our area of operation presents significant challenges. An essential part of our role is to work with other professionals in health, social care and education, acting as advocates for our patients and their families. This vital link ensures communication of needs across a diverse range of services in a way which enhances the support of the child and family and raises the profile of Rennie Grove within our local community.

Transition of young people into adult services remains challenging in part due to the different nature of services. So far we have been unable to refer any young people into the Rennie Grove adult services as the criteria for hospice care varies so greatly. This is applicable to other areas, not just hospice care, for example social care and respite facilities.

We greatly value our close working relationship with The Pepper Foundation which continues to provide the majority of the funding for the Pepper Children’s Nursing Team. We enjoy a very special partnership with The Pepper Foundation and are deeply grateful to their trustees for their long term, committed support.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

DAY HOSPICE AND OUTPATIENT CARE A range of Rennie Grove care is available at Grove House and at home for patients in the St Albans, Harpenden and Dacorum areas.

Grove House Day Hospice employs a team of nurses and clinicians. Patients visiting have access to a specialist doctor, nurses, physiotherapist, occupational therapists, complementary therapists and spiritual care. Our Day Hospice team offers patients with advancing illness symptom control and coping strategies, enabling them to live independently at home for longer.

We also support patients on an outpatient basis at Grove House, offering a range of day hospice care for those not wishing to attend for a full day.

Alongside the care at Grove House and the hospice at home nursing service, other clinicians and a team of trained volunteers offer valuable support for patients and families at home. We plan to extend this care to patients in Buckinghamshire in due course.

FAMILY & BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT Across our geographical area we provide one-to-one support in person and over the phone from trained Bereavement Support Volunteers. Families access our volunteer-led counselling service and benefit from Social Support Groups. Our Sibling Support Groups continue to hold these for the siblings of our paediatric patients.

The Family Support Team continues to work alongside all the nursing teams, offering support for families facing the loss of a loved one and thus enabling care to be extended into the post-bereavement period. Nearly half of the families with whom we’ve had a connection take up our offer of Family Support; the national average for hospice carers is just 1 in 4. The team has provided more support for families and carers during the period, a trend linked to the increase in adult patient referral numbers.

The Children’s Support Facilitator’s work increases period on period and continues to provide expert support for our younger patients and their siblings. This is in addition to offering development and bereavement support to the children of our adult patients.

CANCER THE NEXT STEP Our Cancer the next step programme at Grove House is available right across Bucks and Herts and even further afield for those living with cancer at an early stage of their illness. It enables people to develop coping strategies, to come to terms with their illness and move on in their lives.

PATIENT INFORMATION Patients and families can also receive information and support across the Rennie Grove area through the nurses and family support team in Bucks and at Grove House or in hospital clinics in North West Herts. This specially tailored information helps patients and families have greater knowledge about the illness and the range of care and support available to be able to take greater control of their care and to cope better.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT We continue to provide training and professional development for our nursing and clinical staff during the period. We believe that it is vital for our staff to receive excellent training and support so that they can develop their competencies as healthcare professionals, and new nurses and clinicians joining the service receive excellent induction and training as well as regular professional updates throughout their career with Rennie Grove.

STRATEGY Our mission is to offer excellent palliative and end of life care based around patients and their families both day and night.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

Our goals for 2013 to 2016 are:

To ensure that every adult and child receives high quality palliative and end of life care and support in our local community through:

providing excellent multidisciplinary palliative care for patients and families through the provision of Hospice at Home, Family Support and Day Hospice services

collaborating with all partners to ensure patients in the community receive the highest quality of care and support

ensuring all our clinical staff receive the best training and development achieving an excellent profile for innovative models of care and influencing the local and national health

policy agenda

To provide a first class sustainable organisation to support the care of our patients through:

raising sufficient income to ensure the long term viability of Rennie Grove Hospice Care being an employer of choice within the hospice sector engaging the wider community, valuing their role as volunteers and supporters being an effective and efficient organisation

FUNDRAISING AND COMMUNICATIONS The department continues to focus on generating income in a professional, sustainable and cost-effective way from multiple sources to meet the Rennie Grove annual expenditure budget and support the Rennie Grove reserves policy.

In memoriam giving remained broadly static despite the further increase in the number of patients receiving care. We are very grateful for the generosity of families and friends who make donations in memory of loved ones and those who make provision for a legacy to our charity in their will.

Although income from voluntary donations decreased by 8.5% from £1,550,766 in 2011-12 to £1,419,415 in 2012-13, the number of donors remained fairly steady with the donation amount accounting for the declining income, This decrease is, therefore, reflective of the challenging economic climate rather than declining support.

This strength of local support can also be seen in community and events fundraising where income increased by 8% from £834,908 in 2011-12 to £904,830 in 2012-13.

Income from grant making trusts continued to be adversely affected by the economic downturn and continued poor returns on stock market and other investments. We do not expect the fundraising environment to improve in the short to medium term and will be exploring every possible opportunity to raise funds to sustain our services through increased fundraising and marketing activity.

Once again we were pleased to benefit from a significant increase in income from The Hospice Lottery which is run by The Hospice Lottery Partnership Limited, a separate company in which IRHH and Grove House each hold 1/7th share. The lottery performed well and contributed to each shareholder.

Increases in the costs of generating funds are to be expected in the current financial climate. The charity’s return on investment in such activities fell during the period and this may continue in a highly competitive fundraising climate.

Page 8

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

Our small communications team provided support for the whole organisation throughout the period and continues to play an important part in raising the profile of the charity generally, supporting specific campaigns and events through a wide range of printed and digital media.

RETAIL & TRADING Our shops continue to beat all previous records in selling goods donated by supporters supplemented by a small quantity of bought in goods such as greetings cards. The shops provide a vital presence for the charity throughout our area of operation and make a significant contribution to the income of the organisation: 2011-12 was an excellent period with the department generating over £1.9 million income, an increase of 27% on last period.

This success can be attributed to a great deal of very hard work by the retail management and our superb volunteers; the opening of a dedicated bookshop in Princes Risborough and a new shop in Wendover, as well as the relocation to better premises of our shop in Flackwell Heath. We are continuing to see increased revenues from shops in their first and second years of trading.; Once again our eBay team has achieved excellent growth in profit with sales reaching an average to £1,500 a week. .

The four Grove House shops previously managed by Isabel Hospice became part of the Rennie Grove group in October 2012.Plans are in place to open two further shops in the St Albans and Harpenden area in the coming year.

Each additional shop brings with it the need for increased logistical support and storage. The Retail & Trading warehouse located in Tring has been extended through the acquisition of a neighbouring unit. A distribution centre has been established to support the ever growing number of shops and enable us to make best use of the items donated to us, by supplying stock on demand and offering storage space for surplus seasonal stock. The Retail and Trading team manage to achieve a fine balance between making the most of sparse resources and investing to maximise the return. The team includes a number of dedicated volunteers who are an integral part of the shops and retail operation. Without them, we would not be able to operate.

NHS INCOME The Primary Care Trusts continue with grant funding (rather than any form of tariff based approach) to support around 14% of the care that Rennie Grove provides to patients. We will continue to press hard for a fairer share of available PCT funding to more accurately reflect the work that we do. At approximately 14%, we continue to operate substantially behind the national average for hospice funding. Operating with such a low level of PCT funding would not be possible without the generosity of our communities, supporters and donors. We believe that we must continue to push for a fairer approach to PCT funding which accurately reflects the volume, depth and quality of the services we provide.

We also acknowledge the Department of Health Children’s Hospice and Hospice At Home Grant for 2012/13, which funds some 20% of the costs of our paediatric team, made under the provisions of Section 64 of the Health Services and Public Health Act 1968.

PREMISES Having office staff spread over four office bases has proved a challenge in terms of communication and efficient processes. Whilst recognising the importance of a Fundraising presence in both Tring and St Albans we are looking at ways to bring more of our teams together under one roof. In March 2013 additional space was taken to combine the fundraising, administration and clinical teams into one location in Tring.

FINANCIAL POSITION Rennie Grove has faced a challenging period with income from events significantly lower than anticipated as the economic climate continued to take its toll. The charity sector as a whole has reported that it remains more

Page 9

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

difficult to raise funds from traditional sources as an ever-increasing number of good causes chase a decreasing pool of money.

Overall our fund raising income held up well in difficult economic conditions.

RESERVES POLICY Rennie Grove will maintain unrestricted general reserves of not more than 12 months of average actual expenditure unless there is a clear strategic need to hold greater reserves in order to support future planned capital or revenue plans agreed by Board. Conversely, cash reserves should not fall below 3 months of predicted expenditure.

Our cash reserves have fallen temporarily as we purchased the Isabel Hospice's interest in the joint venture which previously ran the Grove House shops for £500K in October 2012. Whilst we will invest the resulting income in providing services to our patients, we anticipate recovering this investment within a two to three year period. It is the board's intention to restore the reserves to the equivalent of three months cash expenditure as soon as it is practical to do so without reducing the provision of our services to our patients.

INVESTMENT POLICY Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charitable company has the power to make any investment which the Rennie Grove Board of Trustees sees fit. Investments are regularly reviewed and are currently managed by Barclays Wealth under a mandate authorised by the trustees.

GOVERNANCE AND RISK MANAGEMENT Rennie Grove is led and controlled by a Board of Trustees which collectively ensures delivery of its objectives, sets its strategic direction and upholds its values. The Board of Trustees is collectively responsible and accountable for ensuring and monitoring that the organisation is performing well, is solvent, and complies with all its obligations.

The Board of Trustees meets 6 times a year with the Chief Executive and members of the senior management team present. The Board sets the terms of reference for a number of Governance groups which have clear, delegated authorities. The Board monitors the groups’ performance through reports received at Board Meetings.

Rennie Grove’s Board size allows for the active participation of trustees in a range of subcommittees and ad hoc working groups and affords good cover when, on occasion, trustees are unable to attend meetings. The Board and Governance Group structure is able to support the charity’s current activities and is capable of supporting increasing size and complexity in line with the charity’s strategic plan. To meet their governance responsibilities, trustees sit on one or more Governance groups covering Finance & General Purposes, Clinical Governance, Human Resources and Volunteering, Information Technology, Risk, Retail & Trading, Fundraising & Marketing and also attend meetings with our Consultation Group.

The charity has a full range of operating policies and protocols in place to support the work it does and to allow it to respond to unforeseen circumstances and events. All policies are reviewed and updated regularly.

The Rennie Grove Board of Trustees aims to minimise internal risks by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure as far as possible consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charity. Rennie Grove maintains a risk register which is reviewed regularly to ensure that the charity has adequate and appropriate policies in place.

AUDIT AND INSPECTION Rennie Grove is registered with the Care Quality Commission and our Clinical Audit Team has continued to develop our clinical audit programme and has also worked with other hospices to develop joint standards and audits with a view to standardising practice and the way in which we monitor our performance.

STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS Rennie Grove is fortunate to have a highly enthusiastic and loyal group of staff and volunteers bringing a range of skills and experience to the charity. The organisation is committed to supporting and offering ongoing professional opportunities to its entire workforce – both paid and voluntary. Rennie Grove aims to be an open organisation, consulting with staff and volunteers in many ways on major issues and actively seeks the opinions of its users on a regular basis.

ORGANISATION AND STRUCTURE The charitable company is a company limited by guarantee under the Companies Act 2006, number 7479930, and a registered charity, number 1140386. The charitable company is established under a Memorandum of Association which sets out the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. The members of the Rennie Grove Board of Trustees are elected at the Annual General Meeting to serve a minimum period of three years. All Trustees undergo a period of formal induction and orientation with the organisation.

The members of the charitable company, including the members of the Rennie Grove Board of Trustees, are liable for up to £1 each on the winding up of the company whilst they are members or within one year of someone ceasing to be a member. At 31st March 2013 there were 147 members including the Rennie Grove Board of Trustees.

IRHH and GH are subsidiaries of Rennie Grove, and until 31 March 2013 IRHH owned the whole of the share capital of Iain Rennie Hospice Services Limited, a company which operates as a trading subsidiary to raise funds to support the work of IRHH. At 31 March 2013 the shares of Iain Rennie Hospice Services Limited were transferred to Rennie Grove. The two subsidiaries each have a one-seventh interest in The Hospice Lottery Partnership Limited. The Hospice Lottery Partnership Limited is a company which operates a lottery to raise funds for this and the other unconnected hospice charities which jointly own the company.

The trustees head up the organisational structure of Rennie Grove, with the Chief Executive reporting through the Chairman to the board of Trustees. The Chief Executive has line management responsibility for a Senior Management Team comprising the Director of Nursing & Clinical Services, the Director of Fundraising & Marketing, the Director of Finance and Administration, the Director of Retail & Trading, the Director of Human Resources & Voluntary Services and the Project Development Lead. Members of the Senior Management Team represent the organisation on a number of local, regional and national organisations, committees and bodies.

Rennie Grove is a member of Help the Hospices, the National Board for Palliative Care, the National Forum Association for Hospice at Home and Children’s Hospices UK; now renamed as Together for Short Lives. Individual members of the Senior Management Team and other members of staff are also members of various professional representative bodies. The charity is also represented at a range of professional forums related to hospice and palliative care including the two Cancer Networks for our area.

STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES The Trustees, who are also directors of Rennie Grove Hospice Care for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Board of Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Page 13: CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS · 2015. 7. 17. · fundraising events, ... sponsorship at major events and corporate income being particularly affected. The charity ended the period

Page 11

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) BOARD OF TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the period then ended. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgments and estimates that are prudent and reasonable;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

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

In so far as the Trustees are aware:

there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditors are unaware; and

the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

AUDITORS A resolution to re-appoint Cansdales as auditors for the ensuing period will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

The Trustees confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief these financial statements comply with the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities”, issued March 2005, and the accounting provisions of the Charities Act 2011.

Page 12 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

We have audited the financial statements of Rennie Grove Hospice Care for the year ended 31 March 2013 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and the related notes numbered 1 to 21. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

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 auditors’ 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 its members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND THE AUDITORS As explained more fully in the Statement of Responsibilities of the Trustees on page 10, the Trustees, who are trustees for the purposes of charity law and directors of the 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.

Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s Ethical Standards for Auditors.

SCOPE OF THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of:

whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the charitable company’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed;

the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the trustees;

and the overall presentation of the financial statements.

In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Board of Trustees’ Annual Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

OPINION ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In our opinion the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s and group’s affairs as at 31 March 2013, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the period 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.

OPINION ON OTHER MATTERS PRESCRIBED BY THE COMPANIES ACT 2006 In our opinion the information given in the Board of Trustees’ Annual Report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013 (continued)

MATTERS ON WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT BY EXCEPTION We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or

we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the inclusion of investments at market value, in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and applicable United Kingdom accounting standards and follow the recommendations in the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities”, issued in March 2005. The financial statements include the trading activities, assets and liabilities of the group.

Subsidary Undertakings The consolidated financial statements incorporate those of Rennie Grove Hospice Care and its subsidiary undertakings (see Note 16 for details of the subsidiaries) for the year ended 31 March 2013. As permitted by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the SOFA of the parent company is not presented as part of these financial statements. The deficit dealt with in the financial statements of the parent company before transfers from subsidiary undertakings was £14,011 (2012: surplus £96,450).

Incoming resources All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Where incoming resources have related expenditure, the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA.

Legacies are included in the financial statements in the year of receipt.

Grants from government and other agencies are included as income from activities in furtherance of the charitable company’s objects where these amount to a contract for services, but as donations where the money is given in response to an appeal or with greater freedom of use.

Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.

Gifts in Kind are included in the financial statements at their estimated value upon receipt.

Investment income is included in the financial statements when received.

Any income received for a period other than the accounting period has been apportioned over the period to which it relates.

Resources expended Resources expended are included in the SOFA on an accruals basis, inclusive of any irrecoverable VAT.

Liabilities are recongnised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources.

Governance costs include the costs of the examination of the statutory financial statements, the costs of Trustee meetings, the costs of any legal advice to Trustees.

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Staff costs have been allocated by the time spent, and overheads have been allocated in accordance with staff costs.

RENNIE GROVE HOSPICE CARE (FORMERLY IAIN RENNIE GROVE HOUSE HOSPICE CARE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2013

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Fixed assets and depreciation Tangible fixed assets are capitalised, at cost, if they can be used for more than one year and cost at least £250. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset evenly over its expected useful life as follows:

Freehold land - 0% Freehold buildings - over 50 years from the date of first use Leasehold property - over the term of the lease Leasehold improvements - over the period of the lease Motor Vehicles - 25% - 33% straight line Fixtures and Fittings - 20% straight line Tools and equipment - 25% - 33% straight line

Intangible fixed assets are capitalised at cost and amortised over their expected useful life as follows:

Goodwill - over 20 years from the date of acquisition

Investments Listed investments and the investment property are stated at market value at the Balance Sheet date. Unquoted investments are stated at cost. The SOFA includes net gains or losses on revaluation of investments during the period.

Pensions The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Charges are made in the SOFA as they arise. The charitable company also has a Stakeholder Pension Scheme. Both schemes are available to all staff members. The charitable company also contributes to the NHS pension scheme on behalf of certain employees on the same basis as it contributes to the other schemes.

Operating lease agreements Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Tax status The charitable company is a registered charity and therefore it is not assessable to corporation tax on any excess of charitable income over expenditure.

Fund accounting Funds held by the charitable company are:

Unrestricted general funds – these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees.

Designated funds – these are funds set aside by the Trustees out of unrestricted general funds for specific future purposes or projects.

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

The Trustees make transfers between funds when expenditure of a restricted nature is to be met from more than one type of fund. The maximum level of these transfers is agreed by the Trustees prior to the expenditure.

The nature and purpose of each fund is explained further in the notes to the financial statements.
