The following linked charity is registered with the Charity Commission:

Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity (Dreamdrops) – 1108920-2

Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity (also known as Dreamdrops) was established on 1st April 2005 by the Board of Huntingdonshire Primary Care Trust to raise funds for charitable purposes relating to the National Health Service in Huntingdonshire wholly or mainly for children’s services. (The term ‘Huntingdonshire’ refers to the area currently covered by Huntingdonshire District Council in 2016).

The charity was established by the Board to raise money to provide all the ‘extras’ that are not covered by NHS public funds, but which make a hospital stay more comfortable for children and their families. The charity’s work does not just stop at the hospital door, as funds are also used to help sick children who are being nursed in the community.

On 1st April 2014, Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity was taken under the umbrella of Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust who became the Trustee, using a Model Declaration of Trust for an NHS General Purpose Charity

The principal address of the charity is:

Trust Headquarters, Unit 7 & 8, Meadow Lane, St Ives, PE27 4LG.

Objectives and Activities

The objective of the Trustee is to hold the funds, on trust, and to apply the income, at its discretion, in so far as may be permissible, for any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Service. The main policy followed is that most of the expenditure is incurred for the support and improvement of patient services and to provide further comforts for patients which cannot be afforded through public funding.

Statement on Public Benefit

The achievement and performance sections of this report clearly set out the activities which the charities undertake for the public benefit. The Trustee confirms that it has complied with the duty in section 17 (5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission in determining the activities undertaken by the charity.

Achievements and Performance

Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds

The charity used some funds to host a number of conference days for a variety of Trust services, which enable staff to undergo specialist training and share ideas and best practices.

Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity (Dreamdrops)

Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity (Dreamdrops) continued raising money to buy all those little (and large) extras that are not covered by NHS public funds, but which make a hospital stay more comfortable - or less stressful - for children and their families. During the year, the charity used some funds to purchase sensory and educational toys, as well as a Calesca warmer for SCBU.

Investment Policy

The aim of the Investment Policy is to give clear guidelines to the Trustee in the managing of the Charity's funds and to ensure proper and timely monitoring and review of investment performance.

The objectives of the Investment Policy are to:

Investment assets are shown on the balance sheet at market value. Subject to the above it is the intention that the Charity will spend available funds generally over a 2-year period, but with a maximum of 3 years and the Trustee will ensure that resources are maintained in a fashion that achieves this objective.

Reserves Policy

The Trustee has a duty to manage the cash reserves of the Charity efficiently. This requires keeping cash held at the bank to a minimum and investing prudently. Charity reserves, as defined by the Charity Commission, are ‘funds freely available for its general purpose’ and this definition excludes investment assets.

The Trustee of the Charity is under a general legal duty to ‘apply’ (in practice this means ‘expend’) and not accumulate income. Charity Commission guidance on this issue determines that the income of a charity should be applied to specified purposes within a ‘reasonable period of receipt’

Financial Statements of the Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds Year to 31 March 2025

(currently 6 months to 2 years). Levels of future income flows are never guaranteed and it is prudent to retain reserves that enable the Charity to continue to meet its regular commitments. Income may be retained beyond this ‘reasonable period’ if, in the considered opinion of the trustee, it is implementing an action necessary for the Charity to function properly i.e. the holding of specified income reserve balances.

Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds

As of 31 March 2025, unrestricted funds totalled £295,000 (2024: £244,000), restricted funds totalled £521,000 (2024: £652,000) and endowment funds totalled £50,000 (2024: £50,000) (see note 11). The unrestricted and restricted funds will be mainly used to support and improve patient services and to provide further comforts for patients that cannot be afforded through public funding.

Huntingdonshire Children’s Charity (Dreamdrops)

As of 31 March 2025, unrestricted funds totalled £521,639 (2023/24: £514,990) and restricted funds totalled £25,174 (2023/24: £27,399) (see note 11). The unrestricted and restricted funds will be mainly used to support and improve patient services and to provide further comforts for patients that cannot be afforded through public funding.

Relationship with Related Parties/External Bodies

The Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds works closely with its related NHS organisation, who is Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust.

The majority of its grants are provided to its related NHS organisations and to individuals within these organisations. Staff within these organisations identify and advise the Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds on local priorities and assist the corporate Trustee in monitoring the use of the charitable funds.

The Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds maintains close links with staff and patients within the related organisations and their hospitals and community. The strong relationship with members of staff is particularly valued and enables the charitable funds to be directed to ensure an effective contribution is made in support of these organisations.

Close links are also maintained with individual hospital voluntary organisations.

Grant Making Policy

In making grants, the Trustee requires that the activity falls within the objects of the Charities and that the funds are available to meet the requirement.

Risk Management

The major risks to which the Charities is exposed have been identified and considered. They have been reviewed and systems established to mitigate those risks. The Trustee is satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to identified risks.

Plans for Future Periods

The Charities will continue to follow the main policy that, by and large, expenditure is incurred for the support and improvement of patient services and to provide further comforts for patients which cannot be afforded through public funding.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting policies

The policies adopted by the charity in preparing these financial statements are described below. They have been applied consistently in dealing with items considered material in relation to the financial statements. All accounting policies are applied to both charities unless stated otherwise.

1.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention, with the exception of investments which are measured at fair value. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP): Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable to the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) effective 1 October 2019 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019.

Additional information is provided where it is believed to be useful to the reader.

The financial statements are prepared in GBP, being the functional currency, and are rounded to the nearest pound.

1.2 Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared under a going concern basis. The Trustees confirm, at the time of approving the financial statements, that there are no material uncertainties regarding the charity’s ability to continue in operational existence for the next reporting period, 2025-26.

1.3 Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

In preparing the accounts, the trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 a restatement of comparative items was needed. No restatements were required.

1.4 Income

Financial Statements of the Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds Year to 31 March 2025

In all cases the amount at which gifts in kind are brought into account is either a reasonable estimate of their value to the funds or the actual amount realised. When gifts in kind are received, the basis of the valuation is disclosed in the annual report.

c Legacies

Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the granting of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date.

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. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.

1.5 Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings.

Resources expended on charitable activities comprise all the resources applied by the charity in undertaking its work to meet its charitable objectives and governance costs, as opposed to the cost of raising the funds to finance these activities. Charitable activities are all the resources expended by the Charity in the delivery of goods and services, including its programme and project work that is directed at the achievement of its charitable aims and objectives. Such costs include the direct costs of the charitable activities together with those support costs incurred that enable these activities to be undertaken.

Grants are only made to related or third party NHS bodies and non-NHS bodies in furtherance of the charitable objects of the funds. A liability for such grants is recognised when approval has been given by the Trustee.

Governance costs include the costs of governance arrangements which relate to the general running of the Charity as opposed to the direct management functions inherent in generating funds, service delivery and programme or project work.

1.6 Investment fixed assets

Financial Statements of the Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds Year to 31 March 2025

14

1.7 Structure of funds

Where there is a legal restriction on the purposes to which a fund may be put, the fund is classified in the financial statements as a restricted fund. Funds where the capital is held to generate income for charitable purposes and cannot itself be spent are accounted for as endowment funds. Other funds are classified as unrestricted funds. Funds which are not legally restricted but which the Trustee has chosen to earmark for set purposes are classified as designated funds.

1.8 Realised and unrealised gains and losses

All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and opening market value (or date of purchase if later). Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between market value at the year end and opening market value (or date of purchase if later).

1.9 Debtors and creditors receivable/payable within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

1.10 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

1.11 Value Added Tax

The Charity is not VAT registered. Most of the activities of the Charity are outside the scope of VAT and, in general, output tax does not apply and input tax on purchases is not recoverable. Irrecoverable VAT is charged to the relevant expenditure category or included in the capitalised purchase cost of fixed assets. Where output tax is charged or input VAT is recoverable, the amounts are stated net of VAT.

1.12 Allocation of support and governance costs

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support costs. Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs comprise the costs involved in the administration of the charity. They are apportioned based on the average monthly fund balances.

Financial Statements of the Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Charitable Funds Year to 31 March 2025

15

1.13 Charitable activities

Costs of charitable activities include grants made, governance costs and an apportionment of support costs.

1.14 Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

There were no judgment or material estimation uncertainties affecting the reported financial performance in the current or prior year.
