During 2024 we held several events in the
community for ‘Brompton Families’. Events included
various trips and a large Christmas party. All events
were very well attended and received excellent
feedback from guests.
We held internal hospital events, including
children's activity afternoons, parents’ coffee
afternoons, parents pamper evenings, and seasonal
events such as our Halloween trick or treat and
Christmas Santa's Grotto.| Page 2 |||The Brompton Fountain supported and facilitated
the meetings of Trailblazers, a youth forum for 13–
25-year-old patients of Royal Brompton and
Harefield hospitals. They provide feedback to the
hospitals regarding their own experiences as young
patients. The group met for regular catch-up
discussions, as well as regular planned activities.
These activities included online escape rooms,
music/painting workshops, virtual bake-alongs, and
online games.
Bereaved families were supported throughout the
year in various ways, through meetings and
telephone communications. Memory boxes were
created and distributed, along with fingerprint
memory jewellery.
The charity also funded and co organised the annual
hospital Remembrance Day. This is a formal
occasion for bereaved families, featuring a non-
religious service with music and readings,
refreshments, and a balloon release.

Page 9 ## **Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities** The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to: (a) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; (b) comply with applicable accounting standards, including FRS 102, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; c) state whether a statement of recommended practice applies and has been followed, subject to any material departures which are explained in the financial statements; (d) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; (e) prepare the financial statements on a going-concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with current law. 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. Insofar as the trustees are aware: (a) there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's independent examiner is unaware; and (b) the trustees have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information. The trustees' annual report is approved by the trustees of the charity.

Accounting Policies** - a. Basis of Preparation The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” applicable to charities in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014, the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. The Charity is a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The Financial Statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the charity will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Board of Trustees have considered the working capital and cash flow requirements and consider that the current and forecast cash resources are sufficient to cover the working capital requirements of the Charity for at least 8 months. No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period. - b. Key judgements and estimates Accounting estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. - c. Fund accounting - General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Board of Trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. - d. Incoming Resources All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Charity is legally entitled to the income, and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. - e. Resources Expended All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Expenditure on raising funds includes the generation of voluntary funds, the salary costs, the associated administration and cost of fundraising events, such IT, printing and stationery, and postage. Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs identified as wholly or mainly incurred in the pursuit of the charitable objects of the charity. These costs constitute direct costs together with apportionment of support costs and governance. Page 14 ## **Accounting Policies (continued)** - f. Pension Costs Pension costs for the defined contribution scheme are charged to the accounts on an accruals basis in accordance with FRS 102 and SORP 2015. Details of the pension schemes are disclosed in note 5 to the accounts. - g. Employee Benefits Expenditure is recognised for all employee benefits resulting from their service to the Charity during the period. - h. Stock Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. - i. Debtors Debtors are amounts owed to the Charity. They are measured on the basis of their recoverable amount. - j. Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and in hand is held to meet the day to day running costs of the Charity. - k. Creditors Creditors are amounts owed by the Charity. They are measured at the amount that the Charity expects to have to pay to settle the debt. Amounts which are owed in more than a year are shown as long-term creditors. Page 15 ## **2.
