## **Section C                    Objectives and activities** 

The Trust was established by a Trust Deed dated 3rd October 2010 to raise awareness of all cancers that affect children, to provide information regarding the signs and symptoms of childhood cancer to parents, teenagers and young adults, to support such other charitable purposes or organisations connected with childhood cancer as the trustees may from time to time determine.

Whilst the Charity continues to promote the signs and symptoms of childhood cancer, the Beads of Courage programme has allowed the charity to also promote the signs and symptoms of other chronic and serious childhood illnesses.  The charity continues to promote awareness of many childhood illnesses through its Social Media pages. 

The charity continues to engage with parents and young people via its website, Facebook and Twitter applications.  Here the charity is able to share its ongoing work.  Many families also submit their own family stories with the aim of raising further awareness and profile.  We are extremely thankful to the many families who support this initiative as we appreciate it is not easy reliving and sharing their experiences. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

The Covid-19 pandemic continued to impact the charity during the year. Deliveries to UK hospital network did recommence on a slow basis.  The charity continued with its decision not to implement new programmes or recommence site visits to hospitals. We continued to support our children, teenagers and young adults through our media channels and offering programme beads to families through post. 

Beads of Courage UK continued its partnership with Children with Cancer UK who sponsor the oncology and haematology programmes. With no fundraising opportunities and our commercial partnerships not able to continue, we are extremely grateful for the continued support of Children with Cancer UK without whom, the charity potentially would not have been able to continue providing the level of support. 

Our partnership with Children with Cancer UK will allow us to provide more programmes to hospitals who treat children with chronic and serious conditions. We will resume this activity as soon as practically possible. Our aim is to provide every child in the UK with this programme. This is an ambitious target but the Trustees hope the partnership with CWC will be a blue-print towards working with other charities to make this a reality.

Beads of Courage UK doesn’t provide grants. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

Beads of Courage UK has some amazing volunteers who give their time freely to supporting the aims of the charity along with some fantastic fundraisers. We are also extremely grateful to those who take it upon themselves to undertake challenges to raise funds to support the work of Beads of Courage UK and also to the various companies who nominate Beads of Courage UK as recipient of funds that their company’s have raised during the year.

## Section D                      Achievements and erformance p 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

Beads of Courage UK’s main achievement has been maintaining its support for the Beads of Courage programme at a time when donations have reduced significantly, the US exchange rate has remained low and the world has had to deal with a pandemic. Beads of Courage UK receives amazing support from Children with Cancer UK and its volunteers.  We have an army of Bead Makers who make our special one of a kind Act of Courage beads and another army of Bead Bag Makers who source material and make and donate bags for our children to keep their special beads. Each bead is hard earned so having somewhere special to keep them is an essential part of the support process offered by Beads of Courage UK.

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

**Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** 

**Brief statement of the** Beads of Courage UK continually monitors its financial position.  Brexit **charity’s policy on reserves** and Covid-19 has impacted on the charity's resources due to exchange rate movement of some 25% and no fundraising over the past 12 months.  Fortunately, we have the support of Children with Cancer UK who have continued to provide us with the much needed support to continue providing this incredible programme to all children going through cancer treatment. The reduction in donations and Covid-19 pandemic necessitated a change in our focus and we have therefore slowed the introduction of cardiac, chronic and nicu.  The charity endeavours to ensure there is sufficient supply to meet the needs of all beads of courage members.  We are confident that there are sufficient resources available to fund the Beads of Courage programme for the next 12 months. Donations are down so the charity will need to be mindful of this and **Details of any funds materially** manage its finances and bead supply purchases carefully over the **in deficit** coming 12 months. 

## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

Beads of Courage UK continually monitors its financial position. The charity partnership with Children with Cancer UK has relieved the financial pressure of reduction in donations. We are confident that there are sufficient resources available to fund the Beads of Courage programme for the next 12 months. 

- how expenditure has The charity has not worked with its commercial participator, Linn Events over the past 12 months due to ongoing conditions relating to Covid 19 

- supported the key objectives and has decided to mutually terminate Recycling and Management
