2. Structure, Governance and Management

UCLH Charities structure

Following the NHS Executive's proposal for restructuring NHS Charities, The Middlesex

Hospital Special Trustees, the University College Hospital Special Trustees and UCL Hospital

NHS Trust Charity were reconstituted as a single body of Trustees under Section 11 of the 1990

NHS and Community Care Act. Under Statutory Instrument 2000 No 860 these charities were

officially merged into one charity entitled `University College London Hospitals Charities' with

effect from 1 April 2000.

Details of the charities within the group, their individual governing documents and objectivescan be found on the Charity Commission website (www.charity-commi ss ion. og v_uk). Furtherdetails may be obtained from the Charity's registered address.

The Trustees are responsible for setting the strategic direction of the organisation and for

establishing policy. They meet quarterly to discuss and review the Charity's state of affairs. The

Trustees delegate the day to day administration of the Charity to the Secretary/Treasurer who

employs accounting and administrative staff to support him.

Associated Charities

UCLH Charities is the official body that receives donations and legacies in relation to UCLHNHS Foundation Trust. A separate and independent charity, UCLH Charitable Foundation, wasset up as a fund-raising body to support the Foundation Trust with major capital projects. TheTrustees also contribute funding for a number of these major initiatives.

The Essex Wynter Charity is an independent charity that provides subsidised accommodationfor retired nurses. UCLH Charities provide administrative support to the Essex Wynter Charity.Close links are maintained between the two bodies as staff of UCLH NHS Foundation Trustbenefit from the activities of both entities.

The Friends of UCLH, which exists to support the Foundation Trust, also benefits fromadministrative support from UCLH Charities. A link between the two bodies of Trustees ismaintained to allow communication and cooperation in delivering the charitable activities of thetwo entities.

Recruitment, appointment and training of Trustees

All Trustees are appointed by the NHS Appointments Commission on behalf ofthe Secretary ofState for Health and all, once appointed, have equal responsibilities with their fellow Trustees.

There are four lay Trustees and two NHS linked Trustees, with one further NHS linked post in

the process of being filled. Vacant lay posts are broadly advertised and NHS linked posts are

nominated by local NHS Trusts, whose patients might be expected to have an interest in the

management and disbursement of the funds of the Charity.

All applicants for Trustee vacancies are required to go through a selection process set out by the

NHS Appointments Commission. Candidates must be able to demonstrate knowledge of and an

interest in the NHS both nationally and locally. The Trustees are selected to provide the Charity

with a relevant mix of professional skills in law, investment management, banking, fundraising

and charitable grant making.

The NHS Appointments Commission makes the final decision on all appointments and the Chair

of the Appointments Commission writes to invite successful candidates to serve as Charity

Trustees. Trustees are appointed initially for a fixed term of four years, but may be considered for.

reappointment at the end of this term. No Trustee may serve more than ten years in total.

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

Newly appointed Trustees are provided with information packs which provide details on theduties and roles of an NHS Charity Trustee, copies of the constitution of the Charity, theprevious year's annual reports and accounts, and the standing orders and standing financialinstructions. In addition new Trustees meet the Chairman and Officers of the Charity to discussthe organisation's aims, objectives and direction.

Trustees are kept up to date regularly with changes relating to charity legislation. Conferencesorganised by legal, financial and investment professionals are available for Trustees to attend.The Charity is also a member of the Association of NHS Charities, which offers regularseminars for the Trustees.

Organisation and decision making process

The Charity invites applications for funding of projects through University College London.

Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. All bids must be approved by the NHS Foundation Trust

Board before consideration by the Trustees. This is to ensure that grants made are in line withand support the strategic direction of the Trust.

Bids which have been passed by the NHS Foundation Trust Board are discussed at quarterlyTrustees' meetings to which the NHS Foundation Trust's Medical Directors, Chief Executiveand Chairman are invited to attend in an advisory capacity. Decisions to approve all or part of aparticular grant are made by the Trustees following these discussions.

Grants are made from. unrestricted and restricted funds within the registered charities of the

group.

Unrestricted funds are made up of donations with no particular preference expressed by donors,

thus enabling the Trustees to apply these funds for the general purposes of the Charity. Foradministrative purposes, the Trustees have earmarked part of the unrestricted funds to be used

for identified projects in the future.

Restricted funds are funds subject to specific trusts that may be declared by the donors orcreated through legal process that can only be applied for particular purposes within theCharity's objects.

~ For successful projects, the Trustees will first utilise appropriate restricted funds for, the project.Should this not be possible then unrestricted funds are used instead.

' Related parties

The Charity exists to support the work of UCLH NHS Foundation Trust, with which it has a

' close working relationship.

The NHS Foundation Trust Chairman, Chief Executive and senior medical staff are invited to; attend regular Trustees' meetings. However, the Trustees of the Charity are totally independent

of the NHS Foundation Trust.

The Charity owns the entire share capital of QS Enterprises Ltd, a company providing medicalservices to patients of the NHS and private hospitals. The company has a separate board ofdirectors who report to the Charity Trustees on a regular basis. The financial results of thecompany are consolidated in these accounts: further details are given in Note 9.

Risk management

The Trustees for the University College London Hospitals Charities recognise that they have a

responsibility to minimise the risk to which their activities could be exposed. They activelyreview the major risks which the Charity faces on a regular basis and believe that themaintenance of reserves, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial

systems carried out through an internal audit programme, will provide sufficient resources in theevent of adverse conditions.

1 3. Objectives

IObjectives

The principal objective of the University College London Hospitals Charities is to apply funds' for any charitable purpose or purposes relating to hospital services, including research, or to any

part of the Health Service being wholly or mainly associated with any hospital for which the

Trustees are appointed.

The Trustees for the University College London Hospitals Charities seek to achieve thisobjective in four main ways:

• relief of sickness of patients who are or have been treated at the University CollegeLondon Hospitals or any hospital for which the Trustees are appointed.

• relief of sickness at the Hospitals by promoting the efficient performance of staff duties.

' • funding projects which investigate the causes of sickness and disability and theprevention, treatment, cure and defeat of sickness and disability in all its forms.

• funding projects which benefit the advancement of scientific and medical education and' research in topics related to sickness and disability.

Implementation of objectives

~ It is the intention of the Trustees that the charitable funds should be used to expand on anddevelop the services provided by the NHS Foundation Trust, by funding innovative and originalprojects which would not otherwise be possible using only central NHS funds.

4. Activities, Achievements and Performance

This past year has seen the culmination of years of planning and preparation by the NHS Trustwith the commissioning of the new, state-of-the-art University College Hospital. The hospital is

' equipped with the very latest diagnostic and treatment equipment and over 3,000 staff and450,000 patient appointments were transferred into the new hospital from a number of very oldand outdated buildings. The Charitable Trustees were able to make a major contribution to the

' equipping of many parts of the new hospital. The new hospital coped superbly with treating

victims of the London bombings less than a month after the moves began, and the Trust was

honoured in October when The Queen, accompanied by The Duke of Edinburgh, visited the~ hospital to perform the official opening.

- The Trust also saw the completion of a number of other major developments with the re-

opening of the refurbished Royal London Homoeopathic Hospital by HRH Prince Charles, and

of the rebuilding of Chenies Mews to accommodate the Hatter Cardiovascular Institute,Haemostasis laboratory and cell manipulation facilities. The Charitable Trustees provided major

grants for these developments, contributing to the infrastructure and equipping and enhancing

' the amenities for patients and staff.

The Trust met all its main clinical performance targets, gaining three stars for the fourth year

' running, with the accident and emergency department continuing to be one of the bestperforming in London.

~ During the year the Charity supported a wide range of charitable and health related activities in

the new hospital and existing facilities benefiting both patients and staff. The Trustees provided

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

grants to purchase equipment and to support services which the NHS Foundation Trust wasunable to provide.

Additional support came from a number of the smaller restricted funds, where decisions overspending are delegated to ward or consultant level, under the oversight of officers of theCharity. Direct expenditure from these funds delivered a significant proportion of the activitiesofthe Charity.

Medical equipment and infrastructure costs

In June 2005 the new University College Hospital admitted its first patients and by Christmas

the full complement of 600 beds was fully operational. In 2004-2005 in the run up to the

commissioning and in the current year 2005-2006, the Trustees contributed over £4m to enable

the new hospital to be equipped to the highest standards available. Specific Grants approved inthe year included £1.5m for robotic surgical equipment, to enable the Trust to carry outminimally invasive surgical procedures in two of the new hospital theatres.

The Trust introduced the film-less patient images archiving system (PACs) which wassupported substantially by charitable funds and became fully operational at UCH in August2005. All images, such as MRI and CT scans, X-rays and ultrasound scans, are now stored

electronically, saving time and money transporting and storing physical patient records.

The Trustees are also supporting major developments on the Queen Square campus. The

redevelopment of 33 Queen Square linking the National Hospital for Neurology andNeurosurgery and the Royal London Homoeopathic Hospital has received full planningpermission and enabling works have commenced. The Trustees are committed to funding £1.5m

over a 5 year period.

The Trustees are also contributing a total of £1.9m over a five year period for the installation ofa new interventional MRI unit which scans patients during surgery and aims to improve the

treatment of brain tumours, vascular abnormalities and functional surgery. The unit - the first ofits kind in the UK - is due to be completed by the end of 2006.

At the Hospital for Tropical Diseases, £50k was also approved to upgrade and improve the

outpatient consulting suite providing proper isolation facilities to enable patients with suspected

community acquired infectious diseases to be seen in a much improved environment. TheTrustees also approved the purchase of a ScanMed Doppler machine for £24k.

While a substantial proportion of the funding for new medical equipment and improvements tothe fabric of the buildings have come from the Trustees' funds it is very important to recognisethe significant contribution from ward and consultant funds which provided over £450,000

towards medical and other equipment.

Patient welfare and amenities

The Trustees provided major financial support to three key service developments for patients

during the year.

Grants totalling £455,000 were approved to support future planning and development of

ambulatory care facilities. Models of care developed in America have been studied in somedetail and it has been found that treatment on a day-case basis improves clinical outcomes forcancer patients.

The Trustees approved funding for two clinical teaching posts based in the Royal London

Homoeopathic Hospital and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, tocommunicate best clinical practice throughout those hospitals and improve treatment forpatients.

' THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

The Trustees have supported substantially the initiative to introduce art into the healingenvironment. The Trust Board embarked on a fundraising exercise in 2001 to raise funds for art

' in the public areas in the new hospital. The new hospital has a number of unique pieces of artdesigned by the Slade School of Art (part of UCL) to which the Trustees contributed grants of£168,000.

~ Ward and consultant funds contributed a further £47,000 towards improving patient welfare and

amenities.

~ Research

The Trustees continued their financial support for the Clinical Research and Development~ Committee, which funds non-commercial research projects. The CRDC is responsible for the

selection and management of research projects which have potential to develop new therapiesfor treating and curing patients. The Trustees have no formal intellectual property contract but

' have agreed a memorandum of understanding with the CRDC that all grants are awarded on the

basis that any gains relating to intellectual property rights arising as a result of the studies must

be shared with the Trustees.

11

II

I

During the year, 13 one- and two-year research projects were approved. The Trustees received

feedback from the CRDC relating to completed projects, approved in earlier years. All of the

research from completed projects was published in peer-reviewed journals or otherwise made

available to the wider research community. Four of the completed projects have attracted further

grant funding from other sources, and additional external funding is being actively sought in a

further five cases.

As part of their ongoing commitment to research, the Trustees continued to fund a Research

Governance Educationalist, a post which exists to develop local research governance policies

and procedures in line with the NHS Research and Development strategy. The Trustees consider

that this post is essential to ensure that funding for research is consistent with current clinical

priorities.

Consultant funds contributed very significantly to research activities, including a majorinternational cardiac conference (£640k, funded wholly from unrestricted commercialdonations), support for research posts (£840k), and funding staff attendance at conferences andmeetings (£570k).

Two specific projects received grants in the year. A head and neck tissue bank is being

established to investigate links between the genetic fingerprints of specific head and neck

cancers and clinical outcomes. This research will be used to develop targeted therapies which it

is hoped will improve the survival rates for these cancers.

The use of cardiac ultrasound is becoming increasingly common, with large numbers of people

becoming competent in its use in more varied applications. There is a need to train personnel to

ensure that patients receive appropriate investigation by suitably trained practitioners. The

second project for which funding was approved by the Trustees is the development of an

animated virtual 3D model of the heart for use on a personal computer or laptop. There are,

currently, no realistic, accurate solid or virtual models of the human heart. Existing solid models

are too cumbersome and are not accurate enough to be useful. Available virtual models are

generally inaccurate, not animated, and/or lack the facility for interactive manipulation. An

accurate model of the heart would be an invaluable aid in the teaching and understanding of

cardiac anatomy, and will have widespread applications in teaching at every level. The need for

a virtual model is increasing in the current climate as a result of difficulty surrounding organ

retention and the use ofpathology specimens for teaching.

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

Staff welfare and amenities

The Trustees are keenly aware that developing and supporting the Trust's staff contributes topatient welfare in terms of increased staff retention, morale and knowledge. Grants approved inthe year included £75k for an additional staff physiotherapist: the Trustees supported the firsttwo years of a similar post in the past, and the demand has now increased to such an extent thata second physiotherapist is needed.

Small study grants from charitable funds enabled 23 nursing and non-medical staff to continuetheir professional education. These grants are conditional on the staff member committing tostay with the NHS Trust for a minimum of two years, to ensure that the additional knowledgegained can be used to improve patient service within the Trust.

To reward long and committed service, the Trustees provide funding for an annual ceremony, atwhich the Trust's chairman .presents awards in recognition of the valuable contribution ofstaff'members who have served more than 25 years with the Trust. This year, 31 staff were honouredin this way: the event was attended by the families and friends of the members of staff and wasfollowed by a reception, which everyone enjoyed. In addition, gifts and contributions towardsleaving celebrations were funded for staff leaving the Trust after more than 10 years service, asa mark of gratitude for their commitment.

Investments

The Trustees invest their charitable funds with three managers; Sarasin Chiswell, Schroder &Co Ltd and GAM London Ltd. The Trustees also own a number of investment properties whichprovide residential and office accommodation for Hospital staff.

The governing documents allow the Trustees to invest in a wide range of shares and investmentsprovided they are not speculative or hazardous investment. The Trustees placed theirinvestments with the three fund managers with the aims of protecting their investments indifficult market conditions at the same time benefiting from a growth period.

The Trustees require their investment advisors to manage their portfolios both to provide aminimum income requirement as agreed with the Trustees and also to provide growth of capitaland income over the long term, whilst avoiding exposing the Charity's assets to unacceptablyhigh levels of risk. The Charity's policy is not to invest directly in companies which producetobacco products.

As at 31 March 2006 the Trustees held investment assets with a market value of £87.6m,

consisting of £66.1m held with the investment managers detailed above and £21.5m in

investment properties. These properties were revalued as at the end of the financial year, in line

with the requirements of the Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Recommended

Practice. These properties generated income of approximately £972k in 2005-2006.

Investment in stocks and shares, valued at £66.1m, were made in accordance with powers

granted under the provisions of a scheme of the High Court of Justice (Chancery Division)

dated 1956, as amended by Schemes of Charity Commissioners dated 1979 and 1986 and April

1999.

Investment performance is continuously monitored and measured in house, against Trustees'

and WM benchmarks on a monthly basis. Investment advisors meet with Trustees half yearly

where strategies and performance are discussed. The appointment of investment advisors is

reviewed every two years. During the year a total return of 21.07% was achieved compared with

24.85% from WM and the benchmark set by the Trustees of 6.5%.

5. Review of Finances

Income

Income for the year was £9.9m, down from £10.6m in 2004-2005. Of this, £4.5m (2004-2005:£5.3m) came from donations and legacies, of which £3.6m (2004-2005: £3.1m) was generatedby ward and consultant funds. £2.2m (2004-2005: £2.4m) was generated by the Trustees'investments, and £2.7m (2004-2005: £2.6m) related to the turnover of the subsidiary company(see note 9). Fundraising contributed £41k, (2004-2005: £69k) and income from charitableactivities, such as courses run by ward and consultant funds, contributed £434k (2004-2005:£148k).

Expenditure

Total expenditure for the year increased to £ 13.6m, a rise of £4m which was mainly attributableto a higher level of grants approved in the year. During 2004-2005, a number of long-runningprojects were completed for less than the budgeted amount, which resulted in a credit to theincome and expenditure account.

Details of activities and spending on those activities are given on pages 5 to 7 of this report andin the Statement of Financial Activities and note 3. The tables below give breakdowns of thereturns on the costs of generating funds and of the proportions of the total expenditurerepresented by the various activities.

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

Reserves

The Trustees have ongoing commitments relating to the welfare of both patients and staff. Apartfrom legacies, which are by their nature unpredictable, the Trustees' income is almost entirelyderived from their investments. The Trustees therefore consider that there is a need to maintaina level of reserves sufficient for the income therefrom to continue to meet these commitments,allowing for fluctuations in the returns that these investments generate.

The Trustees similarly have an ongoing inflation-linked commitment to Research &Development requiring sufficient reserves to fund it.

The Trustees' other expenditure is both spasmodic and often substantial on any one project, beit the purchase of expensive medical equipment or a major capital scheme. It thus variesconsiderably from year to year. A substantial level of reserves is required both to meet knownlikely expenditure up to two or three years' forward and unforeseen expenditure. Currentlylarger than usual reserves are held to enable significant contributions to be made towards theplanned redevelopment of University College London Hospitals and towards the majorequipment required to maintain a first class service to patients during the development.

The Trustees review the level of their reserves on a quarterly basis to ensure that they can meettheir likely commitments and review their reserves policy on an annual basis.

To meet their aims and to reduce their reliance on their reserves the Trustees will actively seek

opportunities for income generation and value for money projects.

6. Future Plans

Following the commissioning of the first phase of the new hospital, building work hascommenced on the new EGA Women and Children's Wing which will form the second phase ofthe development which is due to open in 2008. The Foundation Trust Board is now activelyprogressing the strategy for the further rationalisation of hospital sites and the centralisation ofclinical facilities on the Gower Street campus.

As part of the Trust's strategic development programme the Trustees have supported the design

and development of state of the art facilities for ambulatory cancer care combining the

advantages of a US style ambulatory cancer centre with the access benefits of the NHS and the

clinical and research gains of location within a major biomedical campus. This would require

substantial charitable support as it has done in America, the world leader in this style of

treatment. The Trustees will continue to support innovative approaches to delivering care and in

particular:

• to assist in the improvement of the clinical quality and experience of care for patients;

• to enhance cancer and other clinical research and development in conjunction withUCL, underpinning the Trust's bid to become one of the 5 designated NHS academic

medical centres;• to assist in the improvement of teaching resources for medical, nursing and allied health

professionals;• to help to free up in-patient beds to facilitate the consolidation of clinical services from

outlying sites.

A new Clinical Research Facility will be established in the new hospital building, a new Cancer

Sciences Institute will open in 2007 and the Medical Research Council has decided to relocate theNational Institute for Medical Research to the old National Temperance Hospital site. These aremajor developments even for a Biomedical Campus as extensive as that already established at

UCLH/UCL and will help to maintain international competitiveness as well as attracting new

11. Notes to the Financial Statements

1 Accounting Policies

1.1 Accounting Convention

a) The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention, as modified for the

revaluation of certain investments, and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting

standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting and Reporting by Charities"

(SORP 2005) issued by the Charities Commissioners in 2005.

t b) The results of the subsidiary company, QS Enterprises Limited, have been consolidated in theseaccounts on a line by line basis. Further details are given in Note 9.

1.2 Introduction of SORP 2005

' As a result of the introduction of SORP 2005, the prior year figures have been restated to complywith the new standard. This has resulted in two changes:

~ a) As described in Note 2.1, the value of the free accommodation provided to the Charity has beenincluded in Incoming Resources as a donated service, with an equal amount included in supportcosts and apportioned between activities.

b) Note 4 includes all the staff of the Charity and its subsidiary company. Previously, since the staff ofthe Charity are not employed direct by the Charity but by UCLH NHS Foundation Trust, the costsassociated with these staff were shown as "bought in services from NHS".

1.3 Incoming Resources

a) All incoming resources are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities as soon as thefollowing three factors can be met:

i) entitlement - arises when a particular resource is receivable or the charity's right becomeslegally enforceable;

ii) certainty - when there is reasonable certainty that the incoming resource will be received;

iii) measurement - when the monetary value of the incoming resources can be measured withsufficient reliability.

b) Gifts in kind and donated services and facilities

i) Assets given for distribution by the funds are included in the Statement of Financial Activities

only when distributed.ii) Assets given for use by the funds (e.g. property for its own occupation) are included in the

Statement ofFinancial Activities as incoming resources when receivable.

iii) Gifts made in kind but on trust for conversion into cash and subsequent application by the

funds are included in the accounting period in which the gift is sold.iv) In all cases the amount at which gifts in kind are brought into account is either a reasonable

estimate of their value to the funds or the amount actually realised. The basis of the valuation is

disclosed in the annual report.

Donated services (eg the provision of free accommodation) are included in the accounts with an

equivalent amount in outgoing resources, where the amounts are considered material. The value

placed on such intangible income is the estimated cost to the Charity of purchasing the same

se rvices at the market rate.

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

1.3 Incoming Resources (continued)

' c) Legacies

Legacies are accounted for as incoming resources either upon receipt or where the receipt of the~ legacy is virtually certain; this will be once confirmation has been received from the representatives

of the estate(s) that payment of the legacy will be made or property transferred and once allconditions attached to the legacy have been fulfilled.

Material legacies which have been notified but not recognised as incoming resources in theStatement of Financial Activities are disclosed in note 17, with an estimate of the amountreceivable.

1.4 Resources Expended

Expenditure is included on an accruals basis.

Each item of expenditure is included under the heading on the Statement of Financial Activitieswhich best describes it. Cost of Generating Funds includes the costs of fundraising within UCLHCharities as we ll as the costs (excluding governance costs) of the subsidiary. Grants payable areincluded in the Statement of Financial Activities, under the relevant heading in CharitableExpenditure, when approved by the Trustees and agreed with the recipient organisation. The valueof such grants unpaid at the year end is accrued.

Governance costs comprise the costs associated with the general running of the charity and

subsidiary.

Suppo rt costs are appo rtioned between costs of generating funds, charitable activities and

governance based on the proportion of time spent by staff supporting those activities.

Support costs, overheads, governance and other general costs are allocated to funds on the basis of

the fund's average balance.

1.5 Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Neither the Charity nor its subsidiary company has a strict monetary limit below which fixed assetsare not capitalised. Instead, each asset or group of assets is considered separately and capitalised ifappropriate, unless the value is clearly negligible.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost lessestimated residual value of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:

Years

Leasehold improvements and decommissioning costs Over the term ofthe leaseComputer equipment 2 to 3 years

Furniture, medical and office equipment 3 to 5 years

The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment in periods if events or

changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

1.6 Investment Fixed Assets

Investment fixed assets are shown at market value.

a) Property assets are not depreciated but are shown at market valuation. Valuations are carried out by

a professional valuer at five yearly intervals. The last such valuation was at 1 April 2004 provided

by Davis Brown, Chartered Surveyors. Between valuations "desk-top" valuations are provided by a

professional valuer. Valuation gains and losses are recorded in the Statement of Financial Activities

with the balance sheet reflecting the revalued amounts;

b) Quoted stocks and shares are included in the balance sheet at mid-market price, ex-div;

16

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

1.6 Investment Fixed Assets (continued)

c) All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gainsand losses on investments are calculated as the difference between net sale proceeds and openingmarketvalue (or purchase date if later). Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the differencebetween the market value at the year end and opening market value (or purchase date if later).

1.7 Use of Designated Funds

Designated funds have been established for expenditure which has been committed in principle toprojects but which remains unspent at the year end.

1.8 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are included under the heading which best describes the underlying transaction givingrise to the cash flow.

"Liquid resources" comprise the quoted securities and cash held by the investment advisors.

1.9 Pension Costs

Staff providing governance and administration services to the charity are employed by UCLH NHSFoundation T ru st and are entitled to join the NHS Pensions Scheme. The Scheme is an unfunded,defined benefit scheme which covers NHS employers, General Practices and other bodies, allowedunder the direction of the Secreta ry of State in England and Wales. As a consequence, it is notpossible for the Charity to identify its share of the underlying scheme liabilities.

The Scheme is subject to a full valuation every four years by the Government Actuary. The lastpublished valuation relates to the period 1 April 1994 to 31 March 1999. Between valuations, theGovernment Actuary provides an update of scheme liabilities. The latest assessment ofthe liabilitiesof the Scheme is contained in the Scheme Actuary repo rt, which forms pa rt of the annual NHS

Pension Scheme (England and Wales) Resource Account, published annually. These accounts can

be viewed on the NHS Pensions Agency website at www.nhspa.gov.uk. Copies can also be obtained

from the Stationery Office.

The notional surplus of the scheme is £1.lbn as per the last scheme valuation by the GovernmentActuary for the period 1 April 1994 to 31 March 1999. The conclusion of the valuation was that thescheme continues to operate on a sound financial basis.

Employer pension contributions are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as and when

they become due. Employer contribution rates are reviewed every four years following the scheme

valuation, on advice from the actua ry . At the last valuation on which contribution rates were rebased(31 March 1999) employer contribution rates from 2003-2004 were set at 14% ofpensionable pay.

Employees pay contributions of 6% of their pensionable pay.

The subsidiary company contributes to the personal pension schemes of all employees, other than

directors. Contributions are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as they become payablein accordance with the contribution rates agreed with the relevant employees.

1.10 Pooling Scheme

An official pooling scheme is operated for investments. Following the merger of The Middlesex

Hospital Special Trustees, University College Hospital Special Trustees and UCL Hospitals NHS

Trust Charity, the Trustees passed a resolution on the 26 September 2000 to adopt The Middlesex

Hospital Charity's Pooling Scheme. This scheme was registered with the Charity Commission on the

15 September 1986, subsequently superseded by the Charity Commission Scheme on the 7th April

1999 and updated by the Charity Commission to reflect the merged Charities on 30th November

2000.

1.11 Related Party Transactions

During the year none of the Trustees or members of the key management staff or parties related to

them has undertaken any material transactions with the University College London Hospitals

Charities.

THE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON HOSPITALS CHARITIES ACCOUNTS 2005-2006

12. Independent Auditor's Report to the Trustees of University CollegeLondon Hospitals Charities

I have audited the financial statements of University College London Hospitals Charities for the yearended 31st March 2006 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the CashFlow Statement and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared under the accountingpolicies set out within them.

This report is made solely to the Trustees of University College London Hospitals Charities in accordancewith section 43A ofthe Charities Act 1993. My audit work has been undertaken so that I might state to theTrustees those matters I am required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To thefullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Trusteesof University College London Hospitals Charities for my audit work, for this report, or for the opinion Ihave formed.

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Auditors

As set out in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the Trustees are responsible for preparing thefinancial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (UnitedKingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

I have been appointed as auditor under section 43 of the Charities Act 1993 and report in accordance withregulations made under section 44 of that Act.

My responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatoryrequirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) issued by the Auditing PracticesBoard.

I report to you my opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and are properlyprepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993. I also report to you if, in my opinion, the Trustees'Annual Report is not consistent with the financial statements, if the Charity has not kept proper accountingrecords, or if I have not received all the information and explanations I require for my audit.

I read other information contained in the Trustees' Annual Report, and consider whether it is consistentwith the audited financial statements. I consider the implications for my report if I become aware of anyapparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financial statements. My responsibilities donot extend to any other information.

Basis of audit opinion

I conducted my audit in accordance with the Charities Act 1993 and International Standards on Auditing

(UK and Ireland) 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 judgments made by the Trustees 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.

I planned and performed my audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which I considered

necessary in order to provide me with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance as to whether the

financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or

error. In forming my opinion, I also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of information in

the financial statements.

Opinion

In my opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the Charity's state of affairs as at 31st

March 2006 and of its incoming resources and application of resources in the year then ended and have

been properly prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 1993.
