The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2025.
Objectives and Activities
Aims and Objectives
The Charity’s primary objectives are:
To relieve sickness, particularly prostate-related diseases, by supporting and encouraging the treatment of prostate cancer patients. This is primarily, though not exclusively, carried out with the Department of Urology, University of Leicester NHS Trust, and associated hospitals in Leicester, Leicestershire, Rutland, and Northamptonshire.
To raise public awareness of issues relating to prostate cancer.
To provide relief of suffering among men, particularly those treated for prostate cancer and related conditions, through practical support and information for patients, their families, and dependants, delivered in ways determined by the Trustees.
The Charity’s aims and activities are regularly reviewed. Trustees have developeda five-year strategy to improve organisational effectiveness and ensure long-term sustainability. This strategy was last reviewed in 2017/18, continued through 2021/22, with the next formal review planned for 2026.
Achievements and Performance
Main Achievements
Background
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK, accounting for 25% of all new cancer diagnoses. According to Cancer Research UK (2017-2019):
-
Around 55,300 new cases are diagnosed each year (approximately 150 per day).
-
¢ Between 2021-2023, 12,200 men died from prostate cancer (about 34 per day). « Rates have tripled in the past 40 years due to increased detection through PSA testing. Survival rates have improved significantly: in the 1970s, only 30% of men survived five years or more, compared with 78.9% surviving ten years or more today.
-
- However, Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland still experience some of the lowest five-year survival rates for aggressive prostate cancer in the UK. Local data shows that 21% of men are diagnosed with metastasised disease, spreading to bones or other areas. Currently, over 42 new cases of prostate cancer per week are diagnosed locally, compared with 18 in Northampton and 9.6 nationally(CRUK).
-
- Many Prostaid Trustees and members are local men with personal experience of the disease. The Charity focuses on raising local awareness, improving patient care, and supporting families.
Despite challenges from high inflation and the rising cost of living and increases in taxation the Charity's income remains positive.

Prostaid Trustees’ Report (continued) For The Year Ended 31 October 2025
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors of Prostaid for the purposes of company law) 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).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statement unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently,
-
e observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at anytime the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

3.3. Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
3.4. Incoming Resources
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that alt the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Donated services or facilities are recognised when the company has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from use by the company of the item is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Chanties SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the Friends is not recognised and refer to the Trustees’ report for more information about their contribution.

Prostaid Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For The Year Ended 31 October 2025
3.5. Resources Expended
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or consecutive obligation 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. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of a total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each 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.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitution and statutory requirements.
Charitable activities and Governance costs are incurred on the company's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the company, apportioned to charitable activities.
3.6. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Ail assets costing more than £250 are capitalised.
A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities incorporating income and expenditure account.
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Fixtures & Fittings five years Computer Equipment three years
3.7. Financial instruments
