Trustee induction and training
Most new Trustees are already familiar with the practical work of the organisation. Trustees are recruited from the cancer patient community, the cancer research team and other interested people who can offer the necessary relevant skills. New Trustees are given a short, informal training session to familiarise themselves with the Charity, and the context within which it operates. They are issued with a pack which contains all the necessary documentation.

Aims and objectives
The principal aims and objectives of the charity are as follows:
-
To advance the health of the public on a worldwide basis in the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of cancer through cancer immunotherapy research.
-
To raise funds to support immunotherapy research into the causes, diagnosis and treatment of cancer in a world class clinical-based research centre at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Surrey.
-
To increase awareness of prostate, bladder, breast, renal, and other cancers among the general public.
-
To support the establishment of local cancer support groups.
Analysis of research funding shows that most funds are spent on basic research and understanding the causes of disease although a more recent project has looked at the reasons for the longevity of some patients who have experienced multiple aggressive cancer.
The aims and objectives are achieved at the lowest administrative cost possible and sets us apart from the other major charities operating in this sector. As a result, we are an entirely volunteer run charity with no paid members of staff.
In October 2021, the charity rebranded with the aim of:
-
Providing a clear message about the charity’s aims and activities
-
Designing a new, more stimulating logo
-
Raising the profile of the charity.
-
Looking for corporate supporters in order to expand fund-raising and expand our list of very supportive partners.
-
Making it easier to give donations, more information to donors as to where their money is going and demonstrate the impact of previous donations.
-
Asking clinicians and nurses to engage with their patients so as to enlist their support
-
Recruiting volunteers to help at fundraising events.
-
Appointing trustees with necessary skills such as marketing and fund raising.
-
A new web-site has been installed and new logo designed. A launch party is to be held early in 2022 to publicise the rebrand.
Summary of public benefits
In planning our activities for the year, we have kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. The objectives and achievements offer public benefit to all cancer patients. The charity focuses its investment in two main areas: immunotherapy research into the causes, diagnosis and treatment of cancer using more targeted and less aggressive therapies and running support groups which offer physical, emotional and social support to cancer patients, partners, care givers and their families.

Immunotherapy Cancer Research
The UK is considered one of the world’s leaders in this branch of cancer research and the research team, located at the University of Surrey, is one of the main immunotherapy research teams with expertise in conducting clinical trials. One of the Topic of Cancer Charity's main goals is to support this team to provide multiple benefits. A consultant oncologist sits on the charity committee to advise on how best to use available funds. To this end we have provided funding for maintenance and repair of essential pieces of equipment and associated costs and assist funding the employment costs of specified staff as requested as well as contributing to the annual costs of the Surrey Cancer Research Institute.
Although we have not been able to carry out our usual face to face marketing because of the pandemic and lockdown, we have continued to raise the profile and awareness of cancer and immunotherapy research through networking, articles in local magazines, active use of social media and fundraising events. As soon as our members feel comfortable we intend to resume interactive, face to face promotion.Topic of Cancer maintains a website with detailed information and has developed its social media links on platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. We have continued to keep interested parties informed through regular newsletters. These have been well received. Visits to the research laboratories at the University of Surrey unfortunately cease due to the pandemic and, although there was a phased withdrawal from lockdown in March 2021, we were still reluctant to encourage people to meet in large groups.
Local Cancer Support Groups
The charity had a support group, ToC Together which offered emotional and social support to cancer patients, partners, care givers and their families, but, due to lockdown and the inappropriateness of holding these sessions online, this has fallen into abeyance temporarily. Our support group was designed to provide emotional, educational, and social support for patients and their families through monthly meetings and occasionally there are guest speakers from science, medicine, entertainment, and complementary therapies and we hope to reinstate these. Discussions have been taking place with other cancer charities in the area with a view to starting a combined support group.
We also fund ToC Fit exercise classes which are held five times a week for cancer patients who are undergoing or recovering from treatment and led by specially trained instructors. The classes are graded according to the participants’ level of fitness. During lockdown, the classes took place on Zoom and have continued to do so as the participants chosen method. These are run in partnership with another charity, ThriveFit.
We have a choir called ToC Voices, who rehearsed together weekly and these rehearsals continued on Zoom from March 2020. Since September 2021, they have been meeting face-to- face again and resumed weekly rehearsals at a venue. We currently make no charge to our members for these services and fund them by seeking community grants and fund raising by the members.

Annual accounts
Topic of Cancer’s accounts on an accrual basis which was adopted in 2018. There is no change to this accounting procedure.
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 Charities Act 2011.
Investment policy
The charity aims to maintain enough funds in the current account to support our fundraising efforts, administrative costs and our three support groups. Any surplus funds are to be deposited in a fixed term deposit, typically of 3- or 6-month duration, to maximise the return on funds for future activities of the charity.
Review of progress, achievements, and future objectives
The purpose of this section of our report is to provide a clear summary of information about the activities of the Topic of Cancer. In particular, we review the progress against our objectives set for 2021, record achievements for the year and set objectives for next year.
Topic of Cancer has striven to achieve its goals in terms of fundraising and raising awareness of immunotherapy research but this became increasingly difficult from March 2020 due to the pandemic and lockdown and expectations of amounts raised had to be adjusted accordingly. We have been effective in converting funds we have managed to raise into benefits and have continued to make contact with other local charities and businesses both to fund raise and promote the charity.
We have tried to be innovative in organising fundraising events, most of which have had to take place on-line. Large events have not been possible even following the phasing out of lockdown from March 2021 as many people were still reluctant to meet in large groups. This meant that our big fundraisers such as the Purple Ball were postponed for another year. We were able to hold 3 golf days, in May, July and September. An evening with Michael Buerk was held on Zoom in March and another virtual quiz was held in June. In July, an evening with Alison Steadman was held on Zoom and an Open Garden event was held in August so every effort was made to raise funds in alternative ways by using Zoom or holding events outside. A concert was well attended in September and we were well supported by runners in various marathons.
The Tiverton Rotary Club continued to support our fund raising but an event organised by the Surbiton Rotary Club had to be cancelled yet again. Wokingham Fireworks did go ahead and Topic of Cancer were one of their beneficiaries but these monies were paid in the following year. There was some income from funeral funds and birthday donations.
The total amount raised from fundraising events in the year is £10,845.

There were many smaller donations from companies, members and individuals
The majority of the money is used to purchase and service essential equipment for the research team. There is an increasing need to fund consumables and we are funding, maintaining, and updating the equipment needed to continue and extend the ground-breaking work of the research team. A small proportion of our income is used for the support, choir and fitness groups. A grant was obtained for the choir from Surrey Community Fund.
We had hoped to have stands at several public, corporate and private events such as the Surrey Business Expo, where we were the charity of choice, and Hampshire Business Expo, and several fetes, fairs and village days but all these activities were curtailed by the pandemic regulations.
Our Patient Support Groups have continued virtually to the great benefit of all the members. Support has been so important to everyone during a very difficult time for those who are undergoing treatment for or recovering from cancer and who may be very isolated and frightened. The fitness groups have been essential to those who are vulnerable and may not have been able to leave their homes and the benefits psychologically and physically of singing have been well documented. We are so grateful to those leaders who have worked hard to make sure that these groups continue. Some of the funding of the choir has been provided by Surrey Community Foundation and donations.
We have launched a new website for interested parties to be informed of our activities and to receive information about our work. It also provides information about the support services we provide, as well as videos of the scientists explaining their research. It is regularly updated and we appreciate the work of Ed Schofield who manages and designs the website with great skill and dedication. We are active users of social media and have a strong following on Facebook and Twitter. We have produced regular Newsletters to keep our supporters updated on current research and events.
We intend to extend our fund-raising next year by recruiting a trustee who has particular experience in this field. We also intend to reinstate the Purple Ball,
Page 8
regulations allowing, and this is always a big fund raiser. We are building on increasing the number of fitness classes and will restart the Support Group on a face to face basis hopefully in collaboration with some other cancer charities in the local area. The choir is thriving and we have several new members. The continuing attendance of members at all our groups, despite the challenges of the pandemic, only goes to demonstrate the importance to them.
We have been able to meet our aims both in support for the immunotherapy research group at the University of Surrey and encouraging and supporting the establishment of patient support groups although we hope to expand the latter even further as the charity becomes more established and expands.
Next year, the charity intends to build on its rebrand, expand its trustee base and review its partnerships with local companies.
Immunotherapy report
The report is submitted by the team at the University and reflects their work in the year. It is included as we have been, and are, ongoing funding supporters to the team. We have no direct management of the group, which lies, within the University. The groups’ activities have been reported to the charity at meetings during the year.
This last year has seen the research program very much recovered post COVID and exploring novel areas which we think will make an impact on patient care. The core focus has been around completion of the Continuum Long Term Survivor Study, which has now recruited 50 patients and all scientific and clinical data has been generated. We will be presenting early findings at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer conference in Boston, USA, in November, and expect a high level scientific paper next year. We have 2 programs in bladder cancer, trying to understand the immune make-up of tumours, and how bacteria which infect and reside in cancer cells may promote cancer growth or reduce the impact of anticancer treatment, through reprogramming of the infiltrating immune cells in the tumour. In addition we continue our work using live cancer killing viruses as immune therapies- they infect and kill cancers and send powerful signals to the immune system to sustain and amplify this anti-tumour response. Our work is intended to underpin future trials in prostate cancer and bladder cancer. Our expertise with high resolution imaging with the Vectra Polaris machine has expanded and we hosted 2 students from the University of Bath for 1 year, who helped with this program. Our clinical trial activity has formally recommenced, currently looking at combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy in prostate cancer. We have published 12 scientific papers and presented at several online scientific meetings this year.
Review of financial activities
The continuing prevalence of Covid pandemic continued to affect our fund raising activities throughout the year. Despite this during the year the charity received income totaling £68,473 a 43% increase over the 2020 figure. This figure is made up of £53,639 (+57% from 2020) from grants and donations, £8,059 (-15%) from charitable activities, £6,741 (+61%) from Trading Activities and £34 (-80%) from bank interest.
Page 9
During the year the charity spent a total of £57,402, a 31% reduction over the previous year, meeting all of its 2020 commitments to the University of Surrey (£31,145) (-55% from 2021) and to its Support Community (£12,008) a 4% increase over the previous year. The charity also spent £4,562 (+259%) on the costs of fundraising (including £3,751 on three golf days). The balance on expenditure of £9,686 was spent on insurance, publicity, administration and a publication for which the charity received a grant of £10,000 from the United States of America. The income is included in the grants and donations figure above. There is a balance of £903 that has been carried forward to 2022 and will go towards the cost of publication.
The primary trading activity for the year were the three golf days, one of which was shared with another charity. These brought in a net surplus of £2,783.
At year end the charity had a surplus of £53,912, an increase of £11,071 (26%) on the balance at the end of 2020. This balance is unrestricted and will be carried forward to 2021 to continue with the funding of research and running its support groups.
Post balance sheet events
The continuing prevalence of Covid and the reluctance of people to meet inside in large groups still greatly reduces the opportunities for fund raising. However, it is anticipated that next year, as people are more willing to participate again, the fund raising will increase. The Purple Ball that was postponed from 2019 will not now happen until the spring of 2022. This will have a major effect on finances as it is the major fund raising activity of the year.
Unfortunately, our Chair died suddenly in April 2021. No handover protocol was in place and so this initially had an effect on the finances in 2021 as a new Chair had to be appointed, initially on a temporary basis.
Reserves policy
The Trustees aim to keep cash reserves covering six months expenditure on the support groups of approximately £6,500. Any balances over and above that are available to give as grants.
Organisational structure
The Trustees undertake the day to day running of the charity, all of which occurs on a voluntary basis. The Trustees are also responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity and meet every two months or more often if necessary.
The Trustees believe that they have all the necessary documentation and policies in place, including GDPR, privacy policy and safeguarding.
Risk
The major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the Trustees, have been reviewed and systems or procedures have been established to manage those risks.
Page 10
Trustees Responsibility in respect of Financial Statements
Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the charity's affairs; the Balance Sheet, the incoming resources and application of funds and the income and expenditure for the financial period. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees should follow best practice and:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
-
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements,
The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity, enabling them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
1.1 Basis of Accounting
These accounts 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 (FRS102) issued on16 July 2014 and with the Charities Act 2011.
1.2. Going Concern
The Trustees have considered what, if any, material uncertainties could affect the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern in the next twelve months.
Cancellation of the Purple Ball and other fundraising events caused by the Covid pandemic are problematic because the Charity relies on this income to pay grants and overheads.
Available funds at 31st December 2021 were £53,912, of this £13,00 will cover annual support costs with the remainder used to fund research. The Charity does not employ any staff and overheads are kept to the absolute minimum. At no time would the trustees commit to future expenditure that exceeded available funds.
Now that we are emerging from the pandemic income streams from fund raising events are increasing and it is anticipated that these will continue to increase throughout the coming year.
On these assumptions, there is no reason to believe that the Charity will not continue as a going concern for the next twelve months at least.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1. INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity.
Recognition of Income
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
-
it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability
Page 15
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless requires or permitted by the FRS102 SORP
Grants and Donations
Grants and donations are included in the SOFA when the general income criteria have been met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS 102 SORP)
Tax Reclaims on donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation os considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same funds the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated Goods
Donated goods are measured at a fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as income from donations when receivable.
Donated Services and Facilities
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA.
Income from interest, royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when the receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.
2.2 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
Liability Recognition
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.
2.3. ASSETS
Tangible fixed assets used by the charity
They are valued at cost
Page 16
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
