We had optimism that the tough year of 2022 would not be repeated but unfortunately the small charities sector has continued to struggle due to factors such as the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and a difficult climate in which to secure grants. ICP Support has continued in its efforts and also again trimmed its costs to ensure that the charity continues to deliver on its aims. At the end of 2023 ICP Support launched an appeal which linked with Jenny Chambers (CEO) leaving announcement. This proved to be successful in boosting funds and has been carried forward to 2024. We thank all of our supporters who have donated to ICP over 2023 – we could not provide the services we do without your help – and it means we can continue to help fund research, support women and their families, and enable us to fulfil our aim that every ICP baby is born safely. As Co-Chairs who took over this role in April 2020, we can honestly say that this last year has definitely been a tough one, but we have remained honoured to be a part of such a fantastic charity. Tracey will be stepping away from the Charity in March 2024 with Jenny taking over the role of Chair solely. We as a charity look forward to 2024 with positivity and optimism. _Jenny Hastings and Tracey Smith (Co-Chairs)_ ## **Message from the CEO** It hardly seems possible that this will be the final TAR for ICP Support that I contribute to. I gave notice to the trustees back in 2021 that I would be stepping down as CEO. For me, it’s the right thing to do as I think it’s important that we have ‘fresh eyes’ on our charity’s work. I will continue to work in research into ICP for Imperial College London, but it will also be good to have some time for me as well! Yet again we have had a challenging year when it comes to finance. Such were our difficulties that in November we launched an appeal. We were transparent about the urgency of raising sufficient funds to see us through 2024, and as I write the appeal is doing really well and 2024 is looking far more secure. But we have also achieved a lot during 2023, which you can read more about further on in this report. The highlight of this year for me was being asked to present at a conference in Australia. Professor Bill Hague, who we have been collaborating with on the TURRIFIC trial (ursodeoxycholic acid v rifampicin), invited me to speak at an ICP day being held in conjunction with the SOMANZ conference. Around 6.7% of the members in our support groups are from Australia, so It was a great opportunity to speak about the work of the charity and to meet other health professionals who would not have heard about us otherwise. I step back from my role as CEO on 28 March 2024 and I am proud of what has been achieved since I first started to raise awareness of ICP in 1991. Our collaboration with researchers has meant that people affected by ICP have had a say in what research they want to see conducted into ICP. I am proud that our work with experts has led to a reduction in ICP stillbirths, although there is still more that needs to be done. I am proud that despite being a tiny charity we have been able to support thousands of pregnant women and birthing people over the years. Most of all, I am proud that we have remained deeply rooted in the science of the condition. It’s science that will give us the answers, and science that will help to safeguard not only future ICP babies, but the health of those who have been affected by ICP. It’s a key reason why I will remain working in research into ICP. 4 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **FOREWORD BY CO-CHAIR OF TRUSTEES AND MESSAGE FROM CEO** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ I want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me over the years. To the trustees who work so hard to help run the charity, to the staff who go above and beyond their job descriptions, to the women and families who have either taken part in research or raised funds for us, to the health professionals who have listened to what we have to say about ICP, and to Professor Catherine Williamson, who I have been working with since 1997. Without her I don’t think we’d be the charity that we are, and I wouldn’t know as much as I do about ICP. I’d also like to thank my husband, Ian Kingston, who hadn’t heard of ICP when we met but who has remained at my side supporting me and helping in the charity. I remember my daughters Victoria and Olivia whose stillbirths led me to doing this work, and I thank my sons, Alex and Tim, for giving me back my joy in life. _Jenny Chambers (CEO)_ 5 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ The Trustees, who are also Directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. The Trustees have followed the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) issued 2015. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with: - the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 - and with - the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - and with - the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. There are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The accounts present a true and fair view and no changes have been made to the accounting policies adopted. ## **Objectives and activities** The object for which the charity has been established is the relief of sickness and preservation of good health among women affected by the liver conditions of pregnancy called obstetric cholestasis, also known as intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). In particular but not exclusively by: - 1) Providing information and support to women affected by ICP and their families - 2) Advancing education of the condition for public benefit. - 3) Promoting, supporting and raising funds for research into the condition. The useful results of which will be disseminated for the benefit of the public. The work of the charity is to ensure that all pregnant women and all health professionals who provide care for them are aware of this potentially devastating condition. This is vital if unborn ICP babies are to be better protected. When reviewing the company’s aims and objectives and planning future activities, the trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. ICP Support relies on grants and income from fees to cover its operational costs. The Trustees monitor the operational costs and level of liquidity to ensure the Charity is able to meets its objectives. 6 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ ## **Providing information and support to women affected by ICP and their families** Social media and our Support and Information line continue to be the channels through which we provide information and support and deliver public benefit. Our most popular point of access for information and support on ICP is still through our social media groups. We have several Facebook groups and a Facebook page. At the end of 2023 the main group had 9,435 members – an increase of 7.3%. This compares with 29% for 2022. The slowdown in the rate of growth happened quite sharply at the beginning of the year and may reflect changes at Facebook itself. There are signs that the rate of growth was returning to a higher level in the second half of the year. Our Facebook page had 6,932 followers, an increase of 370 from 2022. The regional Facebook groups were closed in July 2023 because they did not succeed in their aim of facilitating in-person meetings. The Beyond Birth (postnatal) Facebook group (2,387 members) has continued to grow rapidly, its membership rising by 29% from 1,852 at the end of 2022. There is clearly a demand for providing support to women who continue to have ICP-related issues after their babies are born, right the way through to menopause. The Health Professionals group has grown from 394 members to 428, but activity is still light. Information is also disseminated through X (formerly Twitter), Instagram and Threads, where engagement continues to increase substantially. X followers have increased only slightly, from 1,440 to 1,447, possibly reflecting the controversial takeover of the company by Elon Musk, which led some users to leave the platform. Growth on Instagram continues, up by 11% from 3,102 followers to 3,452. Threads launched in July as a rival to X and our account currently has 425 followers. Other sources of information continue to be through our website and our generic information leaflet. The number of page views of the website (see chart) is roughly stable The trends towards accessing the website by mobile has risen above its previous peak of 82.2% to 83.0%. Development of a more modern version of the website began at the end of the year. 7 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ ## _Infographics_ We have continued to fulfil our aims of raising awareness and providing information on ICP to anyone affected by ICP, and these infographics continue to be well received. Many infographics are now available on the website for use by others, subject to due acknowledgement of ICP Support as the source. ICP Support's work with researchers has contributed to the data published and used in these infographics. _Support and Information Line_ The charity runs a telephone support line that operates Monday–Friday. We do not give medical advice; nor do we provide counselling, but the person who currently takes the calls is a trained counsellor. We also provide online support and email support. 8 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ ## **Advancing education of the condition for public benefit.** ## _Leaflets_ Our generic leaflet has primarily become a digital leaflet. It continues to help raise awareness of ICP and provides up-to-date information on the condition. Printed leaflets are still available and can be distributed at conferences. We were delighted to be awarded funding by the Lottery, Awards for All, which enables us to translate our leaflet into different languages to meet the needs of the diverse communities who access our support. ## _Conferences and talks_ We have continued with delivering information about ICP to health professionals via online presentations. This year Jenny Chambers, our Founder, delivered 16 presentations on ICP to health professionals and she will continue to do this work during 2024. ## _Collaboration_ We have continued our collaborative work with other organisations, and this year the organisations we have worked with include: - Pregnancy and Baby Charities Network - Baby Loss Awareness Week Consortium - EASL (European Association for the Study of the Liver) - • Covid-19 Enquiry ## **Promoting, supporting and raising funds for research into the condition.** ## _Promoting and supporting research_ The NIHR (National Institute for Health Research) has an expectation that research conducted in the UK involves the patients (or patient organisations) representing the condition being researched. This is referred to as PPI (Patient and Public Involvement), and ICP Support has been at the forefront of PPI since the charity’s inception in the 1990s. This takes the form of being involved with the design of studies into ICP, conducting surveys that help researchers to know whether their research intentions are feasible and facilitating the recruitment of participants to the actual studies. This year we have worked with Professor Catherine Williamson from King’s College London (moved to Imperial College in September 2023) And we have also continued our work with Professor Bill Hague from Adelaide, Australia. ## _Raising funds for research_ Promoting, supporting and raising funds for research enables us to deliver public benefit, as the work carried out may have a direct benefit for women suffering from ICP. This year we were unable to fund any research due to the financial challenges we faced, but we hope that this will change soon. ## _Grants Awarded to ICP Support_ Squire Patton Boggs Charitable Trust - £250 Lillie Johnson Charitable Trust - £500 Awards for All - £9,700 9 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ ## **Financial Review** The charity started the year with unrestricted cash reserves of £51,087 available to finance the day-today operations of the charity, the balance has unfortunately depleted from 2022 as this has been an economically challenging year with regards to obtaining grants and fundraising. This left cash reserves representing approximately 8/9 months expenditure. The charity’s focus for 2023 continued to be on fundraising to try to ensure that the operational costs to the charity were met and to provide a basis for growth in the future. Income for 2023 was £68,383, which was an increase of 32.5% on the previous year. This was mainly due to an increase in donations received. Despite the income increase 2023 was a challenging year for ICP Support, as indeed it was for many other charities, large and small. The cost-of-living increases and changes to the amount of funds available through grant providers made fundraising especially difficult. As ever, we are proud of the amount raised and thankful for the continued generosity of our donors and patrons, particularly in such a difficult year in the charity sector. An appeal linked to Jenny Chambers announcing her departure from the Charity at the end of 2023 has proved to provide a positive start which we hope will continue through to 2024. The trustees continue to operate with a Finance Committee that oversees and discusses the financial objectives of the charity, looks at pay and remuneration, and monitors future income and expenditure. The committee continues to meet approximately two weeks before each Trustees meeting, where any final proposals are approved, and where the Chair summarises the discussion points from the Finance Committee meeting. Staff continued to work as normal during 2023. A notable change was that a new member of the team was recruited in September 2023 as a Support and Engagement Officer. This appointment was necessary to take on part of the work formerly carried out by the departing CEO. Expenditure continued to be on operational activities overall, with less spent on fundraising activities, as per 2022. Overall, the charity had a deficit of income over expenditure of £20,143. This means that at the end of 2023 the charity had cash reserves of £30,944, and we are conscious that without further grant monies or fundraising our work can only be supported until the middle of 2024. We are therefore mindful that raising funds in the future is imperative to allow ICP support to continue to support and fund research. ## **Policy & Reserves** An average unrestricted cash balance of at least three months’ expenditure will always be maintained. There are no plans to invest any of the monies held. 10 ## **ICP SUPPORT** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023**_ ## **Structure, governance and management** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Trustees are recruited through personal recommendation and/or by invitation and are people whose abilities and aims are in tune with those of the company’s charitable purpose. In terms of process, candidates meet, in the first instance, with the Founder and CEO. They are then invited to attend an additional interview with other Trustees before being accepted. Once appointed, all new Trustees have a period of induction and are provided with key information relating to their rights and responsibilities. ## **Reference and administrative details** Registered name of the Charity: ICP Support Registered Charity number: 1146449 Registered Company number: 07817408 Address of the principal office: 69 Mere Green Road Sutton Coldfield West Midlands B75 5BY Trustees, who are also directors for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, during the period of the report up to the date the report was approved.
