TRUSTEES’ REPORT

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Income for the year totalled £67,517 (2023 - £5,414).

Expenditure for the year totalled £32,932 (2023 - £6,920).

TRUSTEE SELECTION

Trustees are appointed by the existing trustees according to the terms of the Trust Deed.

MAIN ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

The charity receives donations of money and goods (mobile phones). During the year the charity raised enough funds to award grants totalling £32,535 (2023 - £6,647) to beneficiaries, in the form of goods bought separately or mobile phones from the stock of donated goods.

Potential recipients submit an application to the hardship fund for the purchase of an item to help them in their day to day life. The application must be backed up by a nurse or doctor to confirm eligibility. Trustees then decide whether to donate a non-purchased item from the stock of donated goods received or to purchase a specific item from funds in the bank.

RISKS

The Trustees are fully aware of the need to assess the risks faced by the trust and to respond in such a way as to minimise those risks. In order to minimise risk there is constant consideration of all financial issues by the Trustees together with the charity’s financial advisors.

RESERVES

The level of reserves held by the trust is reviewed regularly by the Trustees and is currently regarded as satisfactory.

On behalf of the Trust

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF SUPPORTING CHILDREN WITH DIABETES

_____________

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Supporting Children with Diabetes for the year ended 30 November 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2022 (“the Act”).

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
