HEALTHWATCH HERTFORDSHIRE LIMITED
Financial health, per its FY2023 accounts
The accounts state that the charity achieved a surplus of £62,212 for the year ended 31 March 2023, increasing its total unrestricted funds to £353,561. The trustees note that this strong financial performance was due to factors unlikely to be repeated in future years. The charity remains dependent on its contract with Hertfordshire County Council, which was extended until March 2023, but holds sufficient reserves to meet contractual obligations if the contract terminates.
What the accounts disclose
“The Board's view is that it needs sufficient general reserves in the event of the termination of our contract with HCC. These liabilities would include contractual obligations to staff, office rental and other contractual obligations. The Board is confident that the level of general reserves is more than sufficient to meet these contractual obligations.” — page 4

The total employee benefits of the key management personnel of the charity were £165,627 (2022 - £147,242).” — page 16
