## **FAMILY FEEDBACK** 


"Your photos were very timely - B isn’t too well and I was quite down and these appeared in my inbox. Well I’ve cried as they are totally beautiful and have captured B’s cheekiness. We are totally 

thankful for all of the photos, but also for the patience and guidance on the day. The way it was all done was amazing as you were all cool and calm and made us all at ease, but B especially felt the calmness and proceeded to be himself and show off at times." 


"We enjoy your events so much, giving R the opportunity to meet other children but also for us as adults to meet other parents who are carers. I just wanted to thank you for all you do and what you facilitate for us as families. It certainly helps to provide normality in the times where we feel things are so far from the norm, it's isn't just memories your also providing a support network for so many people. You’re all amazing."

## **CHAIRPERSONS REPORT** 


We have seen a very positive year 2023 to 2024 for JUMP Children’s Charity. A milestone year in our history as it is now 20 years since we established as a registered charity in memory of Jacob Hawthorn, to create and capture unique memories for children with life limiting health conditions and their families. We are now making excellent progress with implementing our Family Memorable Days Program and our personal photoshoots still underpin all our work with a steady demand directly from families and other health organisations and charities. Our CDM role currently delivered by Harriet Pratt is fundamental to this work and our 

next challenges as a Board and a Charity are to find ways to sustain this role and grow our valued services to children and their families. 

Fundraising continues to be a huge challenge, and we have been fortunate to attract the support of businesses who have raised a significant amount of the funding we need annually. 

The key challenge is demonstrating the impact of what we deliver as a charity as our services are “felt” and support positive mental health and well being We are doing more work on this to try to collect data from children and families about the changes they feel in their wellbeing after they have experienced what JUMP has to offer. At a recent Christmas Event we encouraged feedback from children and families and volunteers on tree decorations that describe “what JUMP means to me “ These words are a powerful testament to everyone involved with JUMP and are included in this report 

We have always relied heavily on the generosity of people giving their time to ensure that JUMP continues, and this has not changed throughout our 20 years. We would not be where we are today without volunteers. Our Trustee Board all volunteer their time, and we are currently expanding to include people with a wider range of skills and parents of children we support. We have committed people who have supported 

our events for children and their families and our fundraising events for a great number of years. We are also experiencing more support from local companies as a result of a focus on corporate social responsibility, which has resulted in fundraising efforts for our services. 


Thank you to each and every person who makes JUMP Childrens Charity such a very special cause and we will look forward to the next year with positivity and joy! 

**Andrea Machin, Chair**

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did 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.
