Going concern

Affirmed

“The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption continues to be appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The Trustees have made this assessment in respect to a period of at least one year from the date of approval of these financial statements. Despite the challenges faced by the Hospice, we have delivered an aggregate operational surplus demonstrating our continued ability to manage finances well whilst delivering quality care to patients. We have increased our enterprise and are continually reviewing the efficiency of our expenditure base. We are entering Year 3 of a five-year NHS contract and have good relationships with commissioners. Reserves remain healthy and the Trustees have confidence in us continuing to deliver Palliative Care in East London for a long time into the future.”
