We would like to pay tribute to this wonderful man who worked so tirelessly to raise awareness of the danger of burns, and to promote the Children’s Burns Trust. We will miss his leadership, dedication, commitment and kindness which are testament to the wonderful man that he was.

Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
Rehabilitation
Family Weekends
Until the beginning of 2020, CBT ran three Family Weekends per year, held at the Fire Fighters Charity premises in Penrith and Littlehampton. Two of these are in collaboration with the Northern Burn Care Network and one with the London & South East Burn Network. The feedback from the weekends is always overwhelmingly positive, however we have always been aware that these efforts have reached only a tiny proportion of those families who might benefit from such support.
We recognised, as a result of the regular, collaborative discussions we had with burn care professionals nationwide, that the NHS is not going to function in the way it has traditionally (as a result of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic) and that most post-admission follow-up and rehabilitation was going to be delivered remotely.
The acceptance that working and care giving remotely would be generally expected and acceptable, which opened up the potential of reaching many. of the families CBT was historically unable to help.
CBT were not able to run any face-to-face support and rehabilitation interventions for the foreseeable future (including family weekends). Without these events, our support and rehabilitation services as a charity were reduced. We believed that we needed to pivot, and look to change the delivery of this service. We also believed that it was important that any changes we made to the delivery of the support we provided was evidence-based, acceptable, feasible and independently evaluated.
The need for. support was as great as. ever. Data. from. the international Burn Injury. Database (iBID), incorporating data collected from all NHS Burn Services in England and Wales, showed that despite an initial drop in the number of incidents reported in early Q1 of the year (as lockdown began), the numbers sharply recovered, with causation trends remaining largely unchanged.
Analysis carried out in October 2019 for National Burn Awareness Day demonstrated that NHS services treated more than 30 babies and toddlers. with a hot drink.burn every day.
In order to begin establishing the demand for an online alternative to a face-to-face family event, and the sort of format parents would find most useful, we conducted a short survey to the members of the Private Parent/Carer Support Group launched by CBT on Facebook earlier during the year. It currently has 96 members.
We also surveyed burn care professionals and the findings indicated that while they hoped that eventually it may be possible to return to delivering post burn rehabilitation services as they were pre-Covid, the need to develop an alternative was universally accepted.

Prevention
Burn Awareness Day
The National Burn Awareness Day (NBAD) was held on Wednesday 14th October 2020 and was an astounding success, reaching millions of people across the UK and beyond. The importance and reach of NBAD has grown year-on-year. Hospitals, Burns Services, Community Health, Fire & Rescue Services around the country were among the many organisations that held awareness raising events. NBAD is an annual UK campaign to raise awareness of the shocking number of people burned each and.every. day — the vast majority. of which .are preventable; and to promote good First Aid should a burn or scald occur.
The team worked extremely hard in the months leading up to the day to produce helpful resources that inspired a huge variety of people to embrace and promote the day.
One of. our social media.pests, showing that 13+ toddlers are severely. burned every day across the UK, reached more than 81,000 people in a 24-hour period. The official hashtag reached over 2 million people online, an increase from the previous year’s figure. Children’s Burns Trust would like to thank everyone who helped us towards achieving this level of awareness in 2020.
Burns Database
The database has been developed to assist in two ways:
-
e Providing technical. data. for those involved in the care and support of children with burns; academics, clinicians and service planners;
-
e Providing a user-friendly preventative education and advice learning zone developed from reliable data
The Burn Injury Data reporting tool is now live on the CBT website, www.cbtrust.org.uk where positive feedback has been received.
Support
We provide support in the following ways:
-
e Direct Support — in conjunction with the NHS Professionals we provide financial support to families; e Providing Equipment to NHS bums services;
-
e Signposting — providing advice to families on how. to access burn-related information
Direct Family Support
Often children with severe burns are admitted to specialist burns services in hospitals far from their home — sometime over 100 miles away. Parents coping with the trauma ofa seriously ill child and trying to juggle travel, childminding siblings and their jobs can find mounting expenses a serious problem. Following referral from the relevant clinical bums specialists we help families throughout the UK to cope with these initial costs.
Providing Equipment / materials
We work closely with those hospitals in the UK that operate specialist services for children with burns and scalds. As part of our work we are committed to providing facilities and equipment which are not readily available throughout the NHS and yet ate vital to the success of the long-term recovery of a child with burns; in achieving a low or pain free treatment during such recovery.

We can provide advice on how to access information and support if parents or carers of a burn injured child contact us directly.
Financial review
a. Principal funding
The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of grant income from Trusts, donations made by the public and extemal fundraising activities by. our supporters.
b. Material investments policy
As most of the charity’s general funds are spent in the short term, there are few funds available for long term investment, although a deposit account is in use.
c. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources tc continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
d. Reserves policy
The charity has not received any capital.endowments. The Trustees therefore believe that it is prudent, when possible; to retain each year’s unspent income until an adequate expendable reserve has been established to ensure the continuity of the charity’s projects. A reserve of at least one year’s running costs of the charity are maintained where possible; funds are particularly tight this year, due to the lack of securing trust donations.
Full details of the policies for restricted and unrestricted reserves are given in note 14.
Plans for the fature
The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of grant income from Trusts, donations made by the public and external fundraising activities by our supporters.

The financial statements are preparedin sterling, which is the functional currency. of the entity.
3 Accounting policies
- 2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts(FRS 102)in.(effective accordance1 January with. the2019),Financialthe ReportingFinancial Reporting Standard.Standard applicable.applicable in the UKin andthe UK Republicand Republicof Irelandof Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Children's Burns Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
- 2.2 Going concern
The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern basis is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue ofthe financial-statements:-
The UK has continued to experience a pandemic of the coronavirus throughout the year but the trustees have continued to monitor the situation and adapt the charity's activities to continue its work wherever possible. The effect of the pandemic on the charity and its future prospects cannot be fully quantified but the trustees remain committed to the protection of the organisation.
The. trustees. consider. that the charity has adequate resources to. continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
2.3 Income Allreceivedincome.is and the recognisedamount ofonce incomethe Charity receivable has entitlement.tocan be measured thereliably. income, it is probable that the income will be
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the probability of receipt and the ability to estimate with sufficient accuracy the amount receivable. Evidence of entitlement to a legacy exists when the Charity has sufficient evidence that a gift has been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid will and the death of the benefactor) and.the executor is satisfied that the property in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estate. Receipt of a legacy must be recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair value of the amount receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the Charity, can be reliably measured.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable:

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive cbligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured. reliably.

Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by. the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.

Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible. fixed assets are initially recognised. at. cost.. After. recognition,. under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
