ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The trustees are happy with the performance of the charity in what has been a very difficult year for everyone and believe that the charity is in a strong position to carry on with its core objectives and activities.

The trustees are also happy that through a combination of furlough, part time and remote working that the charity has maintained a good level of charitable activity throughout the pandemic and that all applicants who meet the charities criteria have received help. The charity expects the number of applications for assistance to rise greatly as things start to return to normality and are confident that the increased demand can be met.

The respite facilities, whilst unfortunately closed due to government restrictions, have been well maintained and are ready for use as soon as regulations allow and again, we are expecting a high number of applicants.

The charity has also implemented a local scheme for cancer sufferers who are shielding or finding it difficult to go shopping to receive groceries and other essentials.

The trustees would also like to thank the charity’s workforce for their adaptability, professionalism and dedication during this challenging period and look forward to resuming the full range of services and activities when regulations and conditions allow.

The charity has good relationships with other charities and continues to receive referrals and appeals for help from hospices and other organisations, we also continue to work closely with NHS cancer departments.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The charity aims maintain a flat management structure as it maintains and develops income streams enhancing its ability to perform charitable activity.

There are no funds in deficit or liabilities.

No risks will be taken with any funds and any long terms surplus in the current account has been put in savings accounts, nothing more risky until a suitable option arises for using these funds.

No funds have been held on behalf of other organisations.

The Charity is carrying a balance of £524,928 forward into the new financial year.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CANCER RELIEF UK

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2020 which are set out on pages 8 to 14.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

The trustees (who are also the directors of Cancer Relief UK for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The 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.

Having satisfied myself that the company is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

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 company 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 the 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:

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.
