children we support to regain some of the independence lost since their
diagnosis.
The charity also raises funds to increase brain tumour awareness &
funding for brain tumour research.
We were once again able to provide Christmas gifts for children staying
on the various wards at Great Ormond Street Hospital and were also able
to provide Christmas gifts for children staying in our local hospitals. The
gifts are always gratefully received.
The trustees of The Danny Green Fund have fully complied with their
duty to have due regard to the charity commission public benefit
guidance when making decisions in respect to main activities undertaken
by the charity.
We have received numerous messages of thanks from families whose
children are suffering from PFS for the support and advice given both
personally, through our Facebook page and through our web site.| ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** March **2012** **TAR** 3 All funding is made at the discretion of the trustees providing sufficient funds are available.

**achievements of the charity**
**during the year**|The Danny Green Fund has continued to provide support for children
suffering from Posterior Fossa Syndrome as the result of a brain tumour
throughout the UK. We expect the increase in referrals received in 2022
to continue into 2023.
The charity has seen very positive results from the therapies that we
have provided this year. The children taking part have continued to show
increased balance, core strength and mobility which will ultimately help
them to achieve their goals of becoming more independent and waking
unaided once again. We aim to continue these therapies going forward.
We are also looking to increase the variety of therapies that we are able
to offer going into 2024.
The charity has received fundraising donations from organisations
outside of our immediate area therefore spreading awareness of the
work of the charity.
The Posterior Fossa Syndrome parents support group on Facebook
continues to be a great success in offering help and support for parents
with children suffering from PFS in the UK and from around the world.
We have created an increased awareness of the signs and symptoms of a
brain tumour through our fundraising and our social media, highlighting
the need for safer less toxic treatments and to ultimately find a cure for
this devastating disease. The charity has once again sponsored days of
dedicated brain tumour research at Portsmouth University to hopefully
help find a cure.
The charity has continued to receive revenue and created increased
awareness through individual fundraising, through just giving, PayPal and
through our Social Media sites, which we hope will continue in 2023/24.
This year has seen a decrease in the number of donations made to the
charity due to the cost of living crisis. The charity has been mindful of
this in our fundraising activities this year. We hope that 2023/24 will see
an increase in the opportunity to fundraise.
The charity held our yearly charity ball at a new venue this year which
was a great success.| |---|---| March **2012** **TAR** 5 **Section E Financial review** The trustees approved a reserves policy of £30,000 **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** **Details of any funds materially in deficit** ## **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); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; The Danny Green Fund is a non-profit charity that is 100% dependent on donations and relies on fund raising as a source of funding.
