TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

The trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purpose of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 202 1 .

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016) .

Objectives and activities

The objects of the charity is to provide support and free, peer support activity holidays for teenagers and young adults (aged 14 to 30) who are living with cancer from anywhere in the UK and Ireland. A sibling or friend can accompany each youngster for free.

Accommodation, meals, activities are provided by the charity with residential accommodation at Tracy Ann House in Bournemouth. The activities include horse riding, water sports, go karting, yoga, mindful foraging, arts & crafts and more, along with more themed weeks, such as a foodie week and wellbeing week, consisting of relevant activities to help improve life skills and promote healthy living for our occupants. The group are asked to choose which activities they take part in and all are optional.

Support also extends to digital and online support service, which include the social networking platform Realshare, now integrated within the main website youthcancertrust.org which provides an online space for young cancer survivors in the UK to share their experience with their peers and get involved with online activities and support groups. Youth Cancer Trust owns Realshare and provides moderation. This digital service also incorporates other social media channels, including Facebook and Instagram, which is monitored daily.

The ethos at the Youth Cancer Trust is to boost confidence, reduce isolation, provide invaluable ‘fun’ and ‘stress-free’ periods and more than anything brings normality and hope into the young people’s lives.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Achievements and performance

During the financial year ending June 2021 we were closed for residential holidays due to Covid19, all activities were online.

The charity has provided support on a safe online space for 185 young people on Realshare and in a private Facebook group. This space has been used since to provide the following:

The online groups have been moderated by YCT staff, that were not furloughed and the Youth Cancer Trust Ambassadors have also played an important role in providing peer support to the group. The Trustees would like to thank them very much for their invaluable support.

In 2019, Youth Cancer Trust nominated 10 young people to be Youth Ambassadors, all of which have had personal experience of cancer and the Youth Cancer Trust experience. The Ambassadors work voluntarily to help promote the work of the Trust in their local areas (they are located across the UK) and they also took part in a workshop to discuss the future of the Trust, which provided invaluable input, some of which is being implemented, over the next couple of years. The trustees are extremely grateful to the ambassadors for giving their time.

To reduce costs, 3 out of the 4 of the employed staff members were on furlough during this financial year.

Marketing to UK hospitals and other cancer related organisations has been done via email and on request. Sending out hard copy posters and leaflets was temporarily suspended.

YCT Fundraising has had to suspend all supermarket fundraising activities due to the pandemic, which has resulted in a decrease in income.

A Google Adwords campaign has been running to market to potential new young patients and social media is used extensively to promote the work of the charity and to reach out to potential new young cancer patients, in light of the lifting of restrictions and the hope that young people living with cancer will be safe to travel in 2022.

An online fun donation app is in development to help encourage donations.

The profile of the Youth Cancer Trust continues to be enhanced by the support of the Daily Echo (Bournemouth), local and national radio, local community groups, charitable trusts, private individual supporters and the local business community.

The fundraising committee, including the YCT events manager suspended all public fundraising events and activities and again any fundraising has taken place online. Events are in place to launch at the end of 2021/22.

The Trustees would like to thank all the youth ambassadors, supporters, grant giving trusts, YCT Trading Limited, volunteers and all the benefactors for their support of the charity, especially during this challenging time.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Financial review

The Statement of Financial Activities is shown on page 8 of the financial statements.

Due to the uncertain nature of the charity's funding, it has remained the trustees' intention to maintain the charity's contingency reserves at an appropriate level that would enable uninterrupted services to be provided to the sick children and young adults and to cover any unexpected expenditure. At the year end £250,000 was designated for this purpose (20 20 - £ 25 0,000). There is no planned expenditure date for the designated funds held at the year end.

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

At the year end the charity's reserves totalled £ 667, 230 (20 20 - £ 785,679 ). This was split as follows, £6,669 (20 20 - £ 6,669 ) as restricted reserves, £625,000 (20 20 - £625,000) as designated reserves and £ 171 , 75 4 (20 20 - £ 154,010 ) as unrestricted reserves.

The trustees has assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

Structure, governance and management

Youth Cancer Trust (UK) Limited is constituted as a company limited by guarantee (company registration number 3436893) and is a charity registered for charitable purposes with the Charity Commission in England and Wales (charity registration number 1064736) and in Scotland (charity registration number SC043065).

The governing documents are the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The names of the trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are set within Legal and Administrative Information. Trustees are appointed by the Board of Trustees and annually put themselves forward for reappointment by rotation. Any new trustees are provided with new trustee information pack on appointment.

The trustees meet quarterly, where possible, but there is also a fund raising committee of volunteers, which meets regularly and then reports to the full Board of Trustees. A trustee is present at the fund raising committee meetings. Key management remuneration is decided by the trustees during a trustee meeting. Trustee's related to key management personnel leave the room while the specific employees remuneration is discussed.

In the event of the charity being wound up during the period of membership, of within the year following, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Plans for future

As noted the trustees aim to increase the number of teenagers and young adults who benefit from the Trust’s services through an extensive on-going marketing campaign to all the youngsters on the YCT database, all UK hospitals with Oncology units, parent support groups and cancer related charities.

New ways of marketing to reach newly diagnosed young people will be undertaken to include hospital visits and presentations to Oncology staff, once deemed safe to do so.

The Trust views the investment in Realshare and digital support services as a further way to extend its support of young people with cancer, expanding across the UK and Ireland to support all young people not only in terms of the holiday offer at Tracy Ann House but outside of that time. Realshare and all digital support services will be continually developed and maintained in response to the ever-changing requirements of young people and their use of social networks. The Trust plans to alter its charitable activities with the Charity Commission and the OSC in Scotland to incorporate ‘digital support services’ officially as part of its core services, especially in light of how successful and valuable this type of support has been during the pandemic.

An evaluation of the digital support provision and the future of the Bournemouth based holidays is to be undertaken during 2021/22.

Peer to peer support has been researched to be of benefit to young people with cancer to help reduce the sense of isolation experienced on diagnosis and throughout treatment to 5-year remission and also for young people living with the late effects of having had cancer and treatment as a teenager.

The Youth Cancer Trust is fully engaged with working with other cancer related organisations here in the UK and abroad to share information and to promote best practice with the focus being fully on what is best for young people living with and beyond cancer.

The ongoing principal activity of the Youth Cancer Trust is to ‘listen’ to the needs of these young people at diagnosis, through and post treatment and to adapt its mission accordingly without losing the very essence of its core activity which is providing a safe and fun residential environment for peer support activity holidays.

Income from grants is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate.

Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of busi ness.

Freehold land and buildings 2% Straight Line Freehold improvements 2% Straight Line Fixtures and fittings 20% Reducing Balance Computers 33% Reducing Balance Motor vehicles 20% Reducing Balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
