TRUSTEES’ REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS’ REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2025
----- End of picture text -----

The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2025.

Children's Hearts UK (formerly the Children's Heart Federation until 22 January 2025) is a leading UK children's heart charity working to meet the needs of children and young people with congenital and acquired heart conditions (CHD) and their families. We are parent-led and pride ourselves on providing expert, direct and empathetic support.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charitable company's Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".

Objectives and activities

==> picture [407 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----
Heart conditions are the most common defect present at birth in the UK. 1 in 100 children are born with a congenital heart
defect, 20-30% of which will require surgery within the fist year of life. Thousands more children will acquire a heart
condition in infancy each year.
----- End of picture text -----

Our objectives are to provide recognition, research, and resources to support those affected by children's heart conditions. We work collaboratively with individuals and organisations to inform, inspire and improve the lives of children with congenital and acquired heart disease.

Public benefit

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charitable company should undertake to meet public benefit. The board has considered the criteria laid down within the guidance and believe that in all respects the charity fulfils those criteria in its day-to-day operations.

Achievements and performance
----- End of picture text -----

Our committed team, alongside our dedicated volunteers, continue to drive forward our vision: that every child with a heart condition has their medical and social needs met, enabling them to ive the fullest lives possible. Over the past year, our reach, influence and activity have continued to grow.

==> picture [396 x 170] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----
* We undertook a comprehensive organisational rebrand to strengthen our contemporary relevance and accessibility
for the families we support, laying strong foundations to support heart families for generations to come.
® We continued to provide specialist, tailored support to children with heart conditions and their families and carers,
delivering detailed guidance on childhood heart conditions and associated lifestyle management through our
information sheets, dedicated support telephone service and in-person support.
® We hosted four in-person family activity days, creating safe and inclusive spaces for children with heart conditions
to build confidence, strengthen family bonds and develop vital peer support networks.
 Alongside this, we delivered four online Coffee & Question events, enabling children, parents and carers to connect
with one another and have their questions answered by experts on key topics, including mental health for carers,
body image for young people with heart conditions, and Individual Healthcare Plans in school settings.
To support children and young people in managing their conditions safely at home, we provided specialist
equipment, including 30 INR machines.
® Our peer support network continued to thrive through the ongoing development of Pulse Parents, now supporting
349 parents and carers. This online forum is complemented sy monthly interactive question-and-answer sessions
with experts on topics most relevant to heart families.
 We provided Molly's Dollies to 97 children with heart conditions, offering comfort, reassurance and a companion
throughout their heart journey.

* Our influence also extended internationally, with attendance at two global conferences; the Global ARCH Summit
and the European Congenital Heart Disease Organisation (ECHDO) AGM, facilitating discussion on the
experiences of children with heart conditions in the UK with peers across Europe and beyond. This engagement
culminated in our trustee, Karen Tomlin, being elected President of ECHDO.
® We maintained an active role within national and local healthcare decision-making structures, participating as
members of the NHS Congenital Heart Disease Clinical Reference Group and the local Integrated Care Board
Patient and Engagement Forum. This ensured that the voices of children with heart conditions continued to inform
decisions about their care.
¢ Finally, we secured a place on the Executive Committee of the newly formed Congenital Heart Disease Research
Network. This pivotal role enables us to engage meaningfully with emerging research projects and uphold our
responsibility to advance the priorities identified through the CHD research priority-setting partnership in which we
previously participated.

Financial review
The majority of our funds came fram companies and grant-making t-usts and foundations. We are also so grateful to
individuals and communities who contributed to our efforts, completng fundraising challenges and self-led activities. We
rely on all of these funders to make a difference to the lives of children with heart conditions and their families ard thank
them for their generous support.
Reserves policy
Itis the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds whicr have not been designated for a specific use should be
maintained at a level equivalent to three month's expenditure The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure
that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they wil be able to continue the charity’s current activities while
consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. Unrestricted reserves at the year ended 31 May
2025 of £73,019 (2024: £123,185) exceeded the reserves policy and the trustees are looking to expand the charity's
capacity to deliver its existing services as well as developing new areas within the scope of its objectives. In addition to the
unrestricted reserves, the charity held restricted reserves of £89,299 (2024: £78,600) at the year ended 31 May 2025.

Plans for the future
