**JOSHUA HAYDAY HELPING HAND TRUST**
**Company Number: 7091862 Charity Number: 1134104**
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT CONTINUED**
The Members may, by ordinary resolution, appoint any individual aged 16 years or over, who is not disqualified as defined in the Articles of Association, to be a Trustee, provided the appointment does not cause the number of Trustees to exceed any maximum for the time being. As at 31 December 2024, there was no such maximum number.
## **Induction and Training of New Trustees**
New Trustees are briefed on their legal obligations under Charity and Company law, the content of the Trust’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Board’s procedures and decision-making processes, the Trust’s strategic objectives and the recent and proposed financial performance of the Trust.
## **Risk Management**
The Directors have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Joshua Hayday Helping Hand Trust is exposed and to ensure that appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
The Board is responsible for the management of risks faced by the Trust. Risks are identified, assessed and controls established throughout the year. A key control is the formal review of the Trust’s Risk Register on an annual basis.
Through the risk management process established by the Joshua Hayday Helping Hand Trust, the Directors are satisfied that the major risks identified have been adequately mitigated where necessary. It is recognised that systems can only provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that major risks have been adequately managed. The Trustees have determined that the key risk to the Charity would be the inability to raise funds.
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and Aims**
The principal objective of the Joshua Hayday Helping Hand Trust (hereinafter “Trust” where appropriate) is to provide relief and support to parents, guardians and carers of children with life-limiting or life threatening medical conditions. The Trust also provides finance for organisations, such as children’s hospices that provide specific support, by way of designated projects, and to families or individuals whose children have life-limiting health issues.
The fundamental aim of the Trust is to assist individuals caring for children in very poor health and to fund projects that provide practical or financial support to families, such as respite care, assistance with transport needs and the funding of medical, mobility or play equipment. The Trust also helps to fund the cost of food and groceries, normally by way of providing vouchers.
## **Significant Activities in 2024**
## **Fund Raising**
The Trust’s own annual Golf Tournament at Worplesdon Golf Club along with sponsored participation in the Brighton Marathon and the London South Tough Mudder event represented the major fund raising events in 2024.
As in the past, welcome charitable donations were also received from corporate sources, friends, family and work colleagues throughout the year.

**Company Number: 7091862 Charity Number: 1134104**
## **Support Provided**
During 2024, JHHHT continued to support individual families and their children by providing funds for, inter alia, food vouchers, medical and domestic equipment, travel costs, days out and short holidays.
Such assistance is normally made possible by referrals from a number of Children’s hospices including Shooting Star, Demelza House, Chestnut Tree House and Haven House, as well as Kaleidoscope.
The Trust also continued to provide significant funds for transportation.
A taxi account facility for families using the NHS Kaleidoscope Children’s Palliative Care Service (Kensington and Chelsea, Hammersmith and Fulham and Westminster) represents a typical example of this type of support. The Trust’s long established arrangement with Kaleidoscope allows families in their care to attend hospital and medical appointments and other activities.
The Trust also provides specific transport funds at Shooting Star and Haven House.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Free Reserves Policy**
The Trustees annually review the free reserves for the Joshua Hayday Helping Hand Trust. Each review encompasses the nature of the income and expenditure streams and the extent of the Trust’s reserves. The latest review concluded that to allow the Charity to be managed efficiently and prudently, and to provide a buffer for uninterrupted provision of finance to children and families who qualify for the Trust’s assistance, a general reserve equivalent to a minimum of £5,000 or 25% of the Charity’s incoming funds should be maintained.
It is the Trustees’ intention to distribute the balance to children or families who qualify for assistance or to organisations that provide care. The current level of free reserves at the end of the Charity’s financial year was £151,517. The Trustees are, therefore, satisfied that uninterrupted financial assistance can continue to be offered to children and families who qualify for the Trust’s assistance during the next financial year.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES ON THE UNAUDITED**
## **ACCOUNTS**
## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Joshua Hayday Helping Hand Trust: 31 December 2024**
I report on the Accounts of the Company for the period ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on Page 5 to Page 9 below.
## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
The Charity’s Trustees (who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) 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) but that an independent examination is required.
Having satisfied myself that the Charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- 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 Statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the statement below.
## **Independent Examiner’s Statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of section 394 and 395 of the Companies Act and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met: or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
