REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES TO THE MEMBERS
OF CANCER COMMUNITY CHEST
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 30th June 2025.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY OF THE CHARITY
The Charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a
Memorandum & Articles of Association.
Its principal objective throughout the year was providing assistance with travel costs to hospital for treatment or procuring to be provided, holidays, respite care, amenities or equipment to those suffering from cancer or other diseases, injuries, infirmities or disabilities of a life threatening or otherwise debilitating or incapacitating nature affecting their quality of life. To obtain funds for this, it ran a charity shop selling donated goods. It has also obtained donations, including money, through fund raising activities.
The organisation is run by the Trustees who meet regularly. The Charity is staffed by unpaid volunteers.
RESULTS
There was a deficit for the year of £22,378 as set out on page 4 of the accounts.
So far as expenditure was concerned, after taking account of overheads (mainly shop costs), there was an increase in grants paid out of £17,832.
The net effect was a decrease in funds available at the end of the financial year to £37,564 (from £59,942 at the start of the year).

-
4 Provide funds to replace assets and/or undertake repairs.
-
5 Cover for specific liabilities and identifiable risks.

DEVELOPMENT, ACHIEVEMENTS THIS YEAR, FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The value of grants awarded during the year increased when compared to the previous year, as was expected, As detailed in previous Trustees’ Reports the Trustees regularly review ways of making the aims of the Charity more widely known together with the type of grants awarded. During the year grants were awarded to Organisations for specific equipment to help with patients' needs which thereby enables the Charity to maintain its aim of helping people who require treatment whilst still funding individual requests for help with travel costs and respite care etc.

TRUSTEES* RESPONSIBILITIES
Charity regulations require the Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the net movement of funds of the Charity for that period. In preparing these accounts, the Trustees are required to:-
-
a) Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently.
-
b) | Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
c) Follow applicable accounting standards subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts
-
d) Prepare the accounts on a going concern basis, unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue to exist.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the Charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charity Commissioners Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP 2005). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In our opinion the Trustees believe that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of The Charities Act 2006, to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission.
AUDITORS
The Trustees have decided to take advantage of the provision of Section 477 of the Companies Act 2006 and therefore no audit has been carried out for the period.
SMALL COMPANY RULES
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. It was approved by the board of Trustees on and signed on its behalf.
