OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
THE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL TRUST, SOUTH AFRICA
We are the UK fundraiser for the Children’s Hospital Trust based in Cape Town, South Africa. Together our vision is of a world in which Africa’s children have access to quality healthcare, no matter where they live.
Established in 2007, the role of the UK office is to broaden the Trust’s international support base and to raise its profile globally. As per the objects of the Trust Deed, all funds raised are directed to the relief of sickness, promotion and protection of good health by supporting the activities of the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital, together with the Trust’s broader work in paediatric healthcare across Africa.
The UK Office is proud to have helped raise more than £3 million in this time.
FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
This last year has seen our small but dedicated team of Trustees, staff, volunteers and supporters come together to raise £296,000 in direct ‘Donation’ income. Up from £197,000 in 2023, we are delighted to have transferred £272,000 to support the Trust’s work in South Africa and beyond.
Fundraising activities delivered in order to achieve this include:
Trusts and Foundations: Representing 70% of our total income, we are proud to continue our partnership with the Burdett Trust and World Child Cancer. The new THET relationship grows and we are pleased to see St James Place Foundation support the Weekend Waiting List Initiative once again. We must say a special big thank you to the Vitol Foundation, which, for the last decade, has been our cornerstone donor. They are now refocusing their grant giving, but we will remain in close contact.
Events: Once again, 2024 saw over 50 dedicated runners sign up to complete the Royal Parks Half Marathon in aid of the Trust. Doubling our original target, this year our team really did go the extra mile. In total, their combined efforts raised more than £50,000 – making 2024 one of our best races yet! We have successfully secured 4 London marathon places for the next 3 years.
Corporate support: Over the past year, we had monthly support from Metro Bank.
Individuals and community fundraising: From an individual runner raising £25,000, to continued support from Clem Booth, our Patron, Cynthia Cormack MBE, The Rebstein family and Christian Raubenheimer, the commitment and endurance of our individual and community supporters have touched the lives of many little patients. Every Pound raised makes a world of difference.

ABOUT THE HOSPITAL
Based in Cape Town, the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital is one of the only specialist, standalone hospitals in Africa that is dedicated entirely to the care of children. Every year, the Hospital cares for 250,000 patients. The majority of these children are from South Africa’s poorest communities and townships, but some are referred from across the continent.
More than just a place of healing, this extraordinary building is famed for the delivery of groundbreaking treatment, specialist training, and cutting-edge medical research. With a reach that extends well beyond the local Cape, the Hospital is bringing world-class healthcare to some of Africa’s sickest children. It is a precious resource that we are proud to protect.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
2024 has been an exceptional year for the UK Office; one that has seen total income rise due in large part to the timed instalments of a significant multi-year grant. Together with the contributions of new and existing partners, this income supports a number of priority projects that come together to give Africa’s children the best possible access to high-quality healthcare closer to home.
BECAUSE POVERTY DOESN’T HAVE TO MEAN POOR HEALTHCARE
The health of Africa’s children is at the heart of our work, and will always be our ‘reason to be’. As a valued national and international resource, it is our job to help make sure that the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital has the resources it needs to stay at the forefront of child health. To this end, projects supported by the UK Office in 2024 include:
Burns Expansion Project: Burns have life-altering consequences if not addressed quickly and effectively. Outside of Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital (RCWMCH), many children face delays in treatment due to insufficient infrastructure, limited resources, and a lack of specialised paediatric burns care. The project begins by linking RCWMCH with the Cape Winelands Health District, focusing on standardised burn care, improved infrastructure, and health worker training. Wound Care rooms, therapeutic play areas, and equipment will be established at Ceres District Hospital, Worcester Regional Hospital and Worcester Community Day Centre (CDC). All three facilities will open in 2025.
Special Equipment: Specialist paediatric medical equipment is vital for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. These devices must be replaced every 5-10 years, but budget cuts in the health sector have made this challenging. The RCWMCH required several pieces of equipment to provide life-saving care, improve diagnostic accuracy, and meet the growing needs of its patients. In 2024, the Children’s Hospital Trust purchased both a lung function machine and a flexible endoscopy set.
The Harry Crossley Children’s Nursing Development Unit (CNDU): The UK has an estimated 60 000 children’s nurses. In Africa there are just a fraction of that number. That is why the CNDU offers nurses from across the continent a unique chance to specialise in paediatric care. Led by a dedicated team of experienced nurses, the programme has been designed to address the health priorities and resource limitations faced by its students on a daily basis. Since the project began in 2008, 626 specialist child nurses have been trained.
Orthopaedic Unit: Until recently, children needing specialist orthopaedic care were treated at the Maitland Cottage Children’s Orthopaedic Hospital. The Maitland Cottage facility has since closed down, and the paediatric orthopaedic services have been consolidated at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital. The Children’s Hospital Trust has project-managed the construction of a brand-new unit, which will provide specialised in-patient medical and surgical care in a dedicated, modern facility. Once complete, the unit will feature a 30-bed specialist orthopaedic ward, a state-ofthe-art orthopaedic operating theatre, parent and staff facilities, as well as outpatient facilities. The new unit will be opening in the last quarter of 2025.

UPDATE FROM THE UK OFFICE
We recognise the level of competition we face in the UK fundraising market. Whilst progress in securing new income has been slower than anticipated, we believe we have a solid foundation, and look forward to building on this work in 2025. Moving forward, our core focus will continue to revolve around Trust and Corporate fundraising, with a view to expanding into Major Gifts. Work to streamline and further professionalise charity, marketing/communications activities will continue into the new year, with 2025 also seeing a strategic review of our Trusteeship.

GOVERNANCE
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The Children’s Hospital Trust, South Africa (CHTSA) registered as an independent UK Charity (1121573) on 12th November 2007. The organisation is controlled by its governing document, a Deed of Trust, with the Board of Trustees responsible for its overall governance.
The UK Fundraising and charitable activities as overseen by the Chair of Trustees. Operations are run through a remote office system with correspondence directed to the Charity’s registered address.
Management Team: Mr Benedict Hall (Chair of Trustees) Ms Tamsin Ashmore (Trustee, Finance)
It is our aim that all donations made to the UK Charity are transferred to the South African team within eight weeks of receipt, with amounts greater than £5,000 transferred within the week of donation. Fundraising income and operational expenditure is reviewed on a monthly basis, with monthly accounts submitted to the South Africa team and verified against bank statements. From this, quarterly management accounts and Trustee meetings provide a forum to monitor overall financial performance together with the general charitable activity. This also serves as a means of risk mitigation.
TRUSTEES
All Trustees are volunteers who have been invited to serve on the Board in an administrative capacity because of their commitment to the work of the Red Cross Children’s Hospital.
Board of Trustees:
Mr Benedict James Dalton Hall Mrs Tamsin Ashmore Mr Stephen Oakenfull Mr John A Bester Mr Jaimie Waddell
The Trust Deed allows for the appointment of Trustees at any time. All appointments follow recruitment and interview by the Chair of Trustees and are for a two-year period followed by an optional 12-month extension. No Trustee receives remuneration for their role.

FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY
Core costs of the UK Office are currently funded through a combination of Gift Aid and administrative allocations within specified grants.
RESERVES POLICY
As a fundraising body, the level of funding held in the UK is kept to a minimum. As such, it is our policy to keep a baseline of at least 6 month’s operational expenditure in our administrative account at all times. In addition to this, organisational reserves are also viewed as the surplus operating funds held in the UK account for each quarter.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk mitigation activity is integrated into the daily operating systems of The Children’s Hospital Trust, South Africa. Weekly e-reports and regular calls between the UK Fundraising Manager, Chair of Trustees and Head of Fundraising (South Africa), provide opportunity to track risks as they arise, and to identify a suitable course of action. Where necessary threats identified as ‘High Risk’ will be elevated to the Board of Trustees and reviewed as part of the quarterly meeting agenda.
WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP
The object of The Children’s Hospital Trust, South Africa, is to raise funds in support of The Children’s Hospital Trust based in Cape Town. As such, the UK Office works in close collaboration with the team in South Africa, who provide additional resource with regards to marketing communications, strategy development and finance monitoring. Annual fundraising targets are based on an assessment of the UK fundraising landscape and are set by the UK Fundraising Manager in collaboration with South Africa’s Head of Fundraising. All UK targets are integrated into the annual strategy of The Children’s Hospital Trust and as such are subject to review by the South African Board of Trustees.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
In 2024, The Children’s Hospital Trust, South Africa, has an overall income of £295,914. Of this, £288,389 is direct ‘donation income’. A further £7,526 was received in Gift Aid. Trusts and Foundations continue to be our primary fundraising stream and accounts for 71% of overall income received. This is supported by event income (17%), community and individuals (6%).
We strongly protect that 100% of received donations go to projects* and that administration is funded separately. With this, we keep a tight track on our overall cost ratio, which runs at under 10% for FY2024 and is better than the industry standard.
In total, £272,182 was transferred to South Africa. These figures are lower than the direct donation income raised, which is due to timing of donations received and transfers made to South Africa. A total of £27,024 was spent on development costs to ensure the smooth running of the UK charity, including £15,132 enabling registration with the 2025 Royal Parks Foundation Half and London Marathon.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF THE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL TRUST SOUTH AFRICA
| report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on pages 1 to 2.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and the examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act: and
-
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the Accounts present a ‘true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:-
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act.
-
- have not been met; or
-
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn, in order to enable a_ proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
