THE FRIENDS OF GUY'S HOSPITAL 

executive COMMITTEES’ REPORT 

OF THE ACTIVITIES 

The Executive Committee present their report along with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2002. Legal and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 and comply with the Charity’s Articles of Constitution and applicable law. 

Constitution 

The Friends of Guys Hospital is a registered Charity number 264150. The Charity was formed by an amalgamation of The Guild of Ex-Patient and Friends of Guy’s Hospital, and Guy’s Hospital Ladies Association, and traces its origin back to 1895. The Charity’s governing documents are its Articles of Constitution. 

Objects  and activities  

The Charity provides amenities for patients and staff.  Medical research is also supported and substantial grants are made for works of improvement which benefit patients, staff and visiting relatives.  The Charity is able, from time to time, to purchase medical and surgical equipment which Guy's Hospital is not able to buy from its own budget. The Charity's wholly owned subsidiary, The Friends of Guy's Trading Company Limited, operates a shop in the grounds of Guy's Hospital selling flowers, gifts and sundry items in order to raise funds for the Charity. 

Organisation

The Executive Committee who served during the year are set out in the Charity’s Legal and Administrative Information. Members of the committee are appointed by Executive Committee. At each annual general meeting one third of committee members retire from office and may be reappointed. 

Review of activities 

The financial statements for the year ended 30th September 2002 show net outgoing resources of £141,219 (2001 incoming resources £76,253). The relatively large reduction in funds in the current year is due primarily to two Medical grants of £150,000 and £99,500 made in the year as detailed in the notes to the financial statements.  

Subscriptions and donations amounted to £99,410 (2001 - £51,649). This included £42,000 donated from Lord Harris who intends to fund half the costs of the above medical grants. Members of the Executive Committee would like to express their gratitude to Lord Harris for enabling the Charity to make two such major awards. £15,000 (2001 £10,000) was donated from The Friends of Guy’s Trading Company Limited, the Charity’s subsidiary, which runs the flower shop in the grounds of Guy’s Hospital. During the year the flower shop commenced the sale of second hand clothes which has proved very successful

Legacies receivable for the year were £17,250 (2001 - £40,000) and investment and deposit account interest £19,831 (2001 - £27,599). 

Reserves policy 

The Executive Committee have examined the requirement to maintain unrestricted funds which are the free reserves of the charity. The Executive Committee consider that, given the nature of our work, this should be approximately £400,000, which gives flexibility to make grants while ensuring adequate working capital exists for our support,  management and administration costs. Unrestricted funds were £419,974 at the year end.

Investment powers 

Under the Articles of Constitution, the Charity has the power to make any investment which the Executive Committee sees fit. 

Risk management 

The Executive Committee actively review the major risks to which the Charity is exposed on a regular basis and confirm that systems have been established to mitigate those risks. 

Responsibilities of members of the Executive Committee 

The Articles of Constitution requires the members of the Executive Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for that period.  In preparing those financial statements the members of the Executive Committee are required to Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

The members of the Executive Committee are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT 

TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF  

THE FRIENDS OF GUY'S HOSPITAL 

We have audited the financial statements of The Friends of Guy’s Hospital for the year ended 30th September 2002 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Total Recognised Gains and Losses and the Related Notes numbered 1 to 17.  These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of investments and the accounting policies set out therein. 

Respective responsibilities of members of the Committee and auditors 

The members of the Executive Committees’ responsibilities for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards are set out in the statement of Executive Committees’ responsibilities. 

Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and United Kingdom Auditing Standards. 

We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and are properly prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993.  We also report to you if, in our opinion, the Executive Committees’ report is not consistent with the financial statements, if the Charity has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding Executive Committees’ remuneration and transactions with the Charity is not disclosed. 

We read the Executive Committees’ Report and consider the implications for our report if we become aware of any apparent misstatements within it. 

Basis of opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Auditing Standards issued by the Auditing Practices Board.  An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  It also includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the members of the Committee in the preparation of the financial statements, and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Charity's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed. 

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error.  In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial statements. 

Opinion 

In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity as at 30th September 2002 and of the incoming resources and application of resources, in the year then ended and have been properly prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993.

THE FRIENDS OF GUY'S HOSPITAL 

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS 

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2002 

 

1.       Accounting policies

 

          The principal accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are:-

 

 

          (a)      Basis of accounting

 

                   The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention modified to include the revaluation of investments, in accordance with applicable accounting standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Charities”.

 

          (b)      Basis of consolidation

 

                   The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption provided by the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Charities” not to prepare group financial statements.  The financial statements present information about the Charity as an individual undertaking and not about its group.

 

          (c)      Income

 

                   Donations and legacies are accounted for as soon as their amounts and receipt is certain.

 

                   Investment income and interest on deposits are dealt with on an accruals basis.

 

          (d)      Grants payable

 

                   The accounting policy in respect of grants payable has been changed to reflect the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Charities”.

 

                   Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient.  Grants offers remain payable for one year after the date of the offer.  If grants are not paid in full within that period any undrawn amounts are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities.

 

                   The adoption of this policy requires a prior period adjustment to be made to recognise grant commitments outstanding at the start of the financial year which were not included in grants payable under the old accounting policy.

 

          (e)      Resources expended

 

                   Resources expensed are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered.

 

                   Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in those cost categories.  Certain other costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of an estimate of the proportion of time spent by staff on those activities.
 

          (f)      Tangible fixed assets

 

                   Fixed assets are stated at original historical cost less aggregate depreciation.

 

                   Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life as follows:-

 

                   Office equipment    -   20% per annum

 

          (g)      Investments

 

                   Investments are shown at market value.  Unrealised gains and losses are recorded in the statement of financial activities as they arise.

 

          (h)      Fund accounting

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

           (i)      Cash flow statement

 

                   The Charity has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard 1 from producing a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is a small Charity.

 

2.       Investment income                                                                                            2002                  2001

 Directors' responsibilities

Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period.  In preparing those accounts, the directors are required to:

  • Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

  • Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

  • State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and

  • Prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and which enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 1985.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

Auditors

A resolution to re-appoint W.H. Payne & Co. as auditors of the company will be submitted to the annual general meeting. 

Small company exemption

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with special provisions of Part VII of the Companies Act 1985 relating to small companies.

INDEPENDENT 

AUDITORS' REPORT 

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF 

THE FRIENDS OF GUY'S TRADING COMPANY LIMITED

 

 

We have audited the accounts of The Friends of Guy’s Trading Company Limited for the year ended 30th September 2002 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, the Balance Sheet and the Related Notes numbered 1 to 10.  These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out therein. 

Respective responsibilities of the directors and auditors 

The directors’ responsibilities for preparing the annual report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards are set out in the statement of directors’ responsibilities. 

Our responsibility is to audit the accounts in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and United Kingdom Auditing Standards. 

We report to you our opinion as to whether the accounts give a true and fair view and are properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985.  We also report to you if, in our opinion, the directors’ report is not consistent with the accounts, if the company has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding directors’ remuneration and transactions with the company is not disclosed. 

We read the Directors’ Report and consider the implications for our report if we become aware of any apparent misstatements within it. 

Basis of opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with United Kingdom Auditing Standards issued by the Auditing Practices Board.  An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the accounts.  It also includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the directors in the preparation of the accounts, and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the company's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed. 

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the accounts are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error.  In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of information in the accounts. 

Opinion 

In our opinion the accounts give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30th September 2002 and of its profit for the year then ended and have been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985.

THE FRIENDS OF GUY'S TRADING COMPANY LIMITED

 

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS                                  FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2002

 

1.       Accounting policies

 

          The principal accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are:-

 

          (a)      Basis of accounting

                   The accounts are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

 

          (b)      Tangible fixed assets

                   Fixed assets are stated at original historical cost less aggregate depreciation.

 

                   Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life as follows:-

 

                   Fixtures and fittings                                           20% per annum

 

          (c)      Stocks

                   Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

 

          (d)      Taxation

                   The charge for taxation is based on the profit for the year and takes into account taxation deferred because of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for accounting and taxation purposes.

 

                        The accounting policy in respect of deferred tax has been changed this year to reflect the requirements of FRS 19 “Deferred Tax”.  Provision is made at current rates for tax deferred in respect of all material timing differences.  Deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that they are regarded as recoverable.  The company has not adopted a policy of discounting deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

          (e)      Turnover

                   Turnover comprises the value of sales (excluding VAT) of goods supplied in the normal course of business.

 

          (f)      Cash flow statement

                   The company has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard 1 from producing a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is a small company.

 

2.       Profit on ordinary activities before taxation                                             2002                        2001
