**DONOR CONCEPTION NETWORK** 

**LETTER FROM THE CHAIR FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** 

The Donor Conception Network has continued to build on the success of its 30th anniversary in 2023, further growing both our member numbers and income. 

We have expanded our offer, for example, preparing to launch a new support service for parents of young people (aged 10-20) called "Continuing the Conversation" and starting the "Big Question" webinars. We have further developed our relationships with our clinic supporters and expanded the scheme. We received a large donation from one clinic which boosted our fundraising appeal. 

We have seen the Network go from strength to strength thanks to expanding our services online and continued investment into our presence and engagement on social media. We are also seeing increased website and social media engagement because of previous years' investments in these areas. Our members see the benefits in terms of improving access to the support and information we offer. 

We have continued to offer many of our services online in tandem alongside in-person events as we know there is huge value in both. We ran conferences in London and Edinburgh, both well-attended, a testament to the value of bringing our community together. Our online offer continues to be very successful, attracting a lot of participants to our workshops from beyond the UK, which is fantastic. 

We are very grateful to our volunteer team of nearly 100 dedicated individuals who do such great work supporting members, acting as our frontline. We ran a volunteer day for them in March, to thank and support them. We continue to welcome more new members, as well as increasing retention of existing members. 

My thanks go to the staff, volunteers, trustees and supporters for your ongoing commitment to the Network. We are well placed to ensure the Network continues to thrive and meet the support and information needs of the wider donor conception community. As I step down from the chair position and next year as trustee, I am proud to have helped this fantastic charity through some difficult times. We have not only weathered those storms but have thrived in the years since. I look forward to handing over to a new permanent chair.

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objects of the charity** 

The charity is an unincorporated association which was established by a constitution dated 24 September 1994 and amended 3 March 2000 and 20th October 2015 with the following objectives: to advance education in human fertility, fertilisation and embryology, assisted conception, genetics and the impact of non-genetic relationships by the provision to parents of children conceived by sperm, embryo or egg donation, to the children themselves and to those contemplating or undergoing treatment, of information, advice, counselling and support. 

## **Donor Conception Network's Vision and Mission** 

The Donor Conception Network's vision is a society where a climate of openness and understanding about donor conception enables people considering it to make informed decisions and helps build families who are confident, accepted and have a secure identity. 

The Donor Conception Network's mission is to deliver high quality, non-judgemental and inclusive support and information to would-be and current parents and their children to enable them to navigate the often complex and individual journey of donor conception. 

We are a pioneering parent-led and child-centred organisation and a trusted authority on the social and emotional aspects of building or expanding a family using donor conception. We are at the forefront of the donor conception movement, bringing over 30 years of experience and the voices of our members to inform professionals, practitioners and policy makers in the UK and worldwide. 

## **How our activities deliver public benefit** 

The Network is a professionally-run support organisation for families using donor conception. It performs a vital role in providing information and support to prospective parents and donor conception families.

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Our activities** 

## **Membership** 

The new fees introduced at the end of 2022 helped increase our overall membership income, which helped cover rising costs and enabled us to invest in developing and extending our services. Membership numbers continued to grow over the year. 

## **Website** 

The new website was an essential upgrade and has provided us with a much-improved space to share our information, offering smoother access to our events and services and signposting. We've been able to develop a members' only section to provide content for members and an easier way for them to access resources like recordings of our webinars and back copies of our magazine. The new website has made sign up for new members significantly easier and is designed to be fully compatible for viewing on mobile phones and tablets. 

## **DCN Helpline** 

Our phone and email helplines continued to provide invaluable support to members, the general public and professionals working in the field wishing to discuss specific donor conception-related issues. 

## **Local groups/meetups and online chats - for members** 

During 2024/25 our volunteers ran 55 in person local meetups around the UK, some events for adults only and others catering for families with children. We also ran over 100 of our popular, facilitated Zoom Chats for members covering a wide range of topics and family situations. These activities, plus welcoming new members, were made possible by our team of around 92 volunteers. 

## **Volunteers** 

We ran three 'Connect and Reflect' online volunteer support sessions during the year and offered 2 training events. 

In March 2025, we were pleased to hold a Volunteers' Day (for the first time since 2020). We arranged a free creche and covered travel expenses to ensure the day was accessible to all. It was well attended and feedback told us this is a valued opportunity for volunteers to connect with each other as well as to get training in their roles and support from the DCN team. 

## **Communications** 

We produced two editions of our magazine, DCN Perspectives. The Friday bulletin went to all members twice a month. We had an active presence on social media and spoke at various events, engaging with professionals working in the field to educate them on the long-term implications for families using donor conception. 

We revamped the non-member newsletter and started a monthly blog on the website, the content of which is circulated to the non-member mailing list specifically. 

## **Workshops** 

We ran a programme of online and in-person Telling and Talking workshops, open to both members and non-members, for parents of children up to 7yrs. We also ran a workshop for professionals working in the field, 'Making It Real', in May 2025. For now, we are putting the Destination Parenthood workshops on hold and are offering our Getting Started event and certain member services as a partial substitute. 

Through the year we have been developing a new half day workshop called "Continuing the Conversation" for parents of children aged 10-20. The first one is scheduled for November 2025. 

## **DCN Conferences** 

We held an out-of-London conference in Edinburgh, Scotland in September 2024 and in April 2025 we ran our annual London conference. The London conference included a creche, childcare for children up to 12 and children's activities for those aged 8 to 12. In June, we held our fifth virtual conference, using recordings of the highlights from the London conference. Being online, it meant people from all over the world were able to access this valuable event.

**DONOR CONCEPTION NETWORK** 

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Getting Started** 

We held two Getting Started events - one in November and one in March. Both were full and feedback confirmed their value and importance for attendees. These in-person events are aimed specifically at prospective parents, providing a space for people to meet and share as well as hear from DC parents and DC people. They complement our London conference, which is aimed at those with children. 

## **April Trust Film project** 

This project was completed in July 2025 and the films are ready to be shared. We are reviewing how best to use them to provide most value. 

## **The Big Question** 

In November 2024 we ran our first webinar, in a new series titled 'The Big Question'. We asked Dr Sophie Zadeh to help explore the question 'How are DC people *really* doing?', using her research to support the conversation. In February 2025 we ran our second webinar, with US fertility counsellor and author, Jana Rupnow, helping us with the question 'How can I feel like a *real* parent?' (in the context of having used donor conception). Both were well attended and we plan to continue the webinar programme, with the next one scheduled for September 2025. 

## **King's College Intern** 

We were delighted to welcome an intern for two months over the summer from King's College London to work on our research database. This was funded by King's Civic Leadership Academy. 

## **Advocacy and awareness** 

In November 2024 we participated in National Fertility Awareness Week. 

In March 2025 we attended the Future Fertility Show in Dublin, Ireland, having a stand there as well as a speaking slot. 

In April 2024 we participated in International Donor Conception Awareness Day (IDCAD) which coincided with our national conference in London. 

In May we ran a stand at the FamilyMakers show in Brighton and exhibited at the Fertility Show in London. Both events were great opportunities to speak to people considering donor conception and signpost them to further support and information as well as build our relationships with stakeholders. 

Through the summer we helped to promote and raise awareness of the De Montfort University EDNA project films featuring interviews with egg donors. These are now also available on our website to encourage more people to view them. 

Through the year we participated in the regular HFEA/POSG meetings (Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority/ Patient Organisation Stakeholder Group) and had regular separate meetings with the HFEA. We circulated six research project proposals. Our Head of Research, Yael Ilan, continued in her role on the advisory board for the DigitalDC project. 

We spoke with several journalists during the period, including The New Scientist, BBC, ITV, BBC Online and The Sunday Times, raising awareness of the particular issues for donor conception families and helping with specific questions. 

## **How we are funded** 

The DC Network has five main sources of income: membership subscriptions and donations; membership activities (e.g. conferences); publication sales; workshop income; and income from our Clinic and Lawyer Supporter Schemes. 

Membership subscriptions, gift aid and donations account for a large proportion of our income and this income supports the services that we offer to members. These include: planning our annual conferences; biannual magazine to members; supporting our local groups and meetups throughout the UK; our regular bulletins to members; and our email and telephone support services.

**DONOR CONCEPTION NETWORK** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

Publication sales: Our publications continue to sell well around the world, reflecting the broader reach that our small charity achieves. 

Workshop income: To keep prices as low as possible, our workshops are designed to be self-funding, rather than profit making, with the income received matching the cost of developing, organising and delivering these specialised, highly sensitive and professionally run events. 

Donations: in addition to on-going regular donations we were also delighted to receive some additional larger donations to support our work. 

Our corporate supporter donations generate part of our income and we are very grateful to all our clinic and lawyer supporters.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DONOR CONCEPTION NETWORK** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Donor Conception Network** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Donor Conception Network (the Trust) for the year ended 31 July 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
