Sundeep Kaur - Chair Sarah Atkinson — Treasurer Claire Osborn-Woollard (Vacated 20/05/2023) Anna Clancy Melissa Barclay Donna Dunn

Objectives and Activities

a. Policies and objectives To promote and protect the health (including, but not limited to, the mental health and well-being) of parents, their families and friends when a baby dies in utero, at birth or soon after birth (“baby loss”).

To advance education about the experience of baby loss particularly, but not exclusively, amongst healthcare professionals.

To support and promote research into baby loss and the methods of alleviating suffering arising from baby loss and to disseminate the results of such research.

b. Principle activities

Aching Arms provides comfort teddy bears to parents whose baby has died during pregnancy, birth or infancy. They donate bears to parents via maternity health professionals and befriending groups in the UK. The bears are used to discuss support available to parents. The charity also leads awareness training for health professionals and hosts a telephone befriending service for bereaved parents.

ec. Public benefit

The Trustees have developed their strategic plans to ensure that the charity plans provides public benefit and achieves its objectives as set out in the Foundation Constitution. The Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance ‘Public benefit: reporting (PB3).

Achievements and performance

The aims as set out in our 2022-2025 Strategic Plan are progressing very well.

We have more maternity services choosing to include our comfort bears in their bereavement pathway and our Supporting Arms service continued to evolve and enhance the quality of care we offer. There has been increased engagement directly with NHS Trusts and local health care providers. We now work with 180 hospitals across the UK.

Our training programmes, for health professionals and the business community continue to be positively received and in demand.

Participation in sporting and challenge events has seen a big increase, with more first-time fundraisers getting involved and the return of previous fundraisers.

We’ve had very successful grant applications, grown our volunteer team and recruited staff to roles in Digital Communications, Community and Events Fundraising and the Be Together Programme.

Our systems for storing and using data continue to improve and we are now effectively using our Customer Relations Management System (CRM) to store personal data including our Dedication List for our bears, collect donations, fundraiser registration and the function of our postal bears. ‘'his is all thanks to the hard work of our staff, trustees, and volunteers.

ACHING ARMS Trustees’ Annual Report for the Year Ended 31 July 2023

Financial review

a. Going concern

The Trustees continue to assess the impact of various economic and social challenges including inflation, interest rates, cost of living crisis etc. We have taken these into consideration in planning for our finances and operations for the coming year.

Cash flow forecasts and budget projections have been reviewed and the Board of Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

b. Reserves policy

The Trustees regularly undertake a review of the financial activities to ensure the charity has sufficient reserves in order to operate in both the short and longer term.

The charity’s reserve policy is to maintain liquid funds equal to at least six months’ core costs, which are primarily bear purchases and deliveries, salaries and premises costs. This level of reserves has been met throughout the year.

c. Financial performance

Our main income comes from donations and fundraising, amounting to £236,503 in the year (2022: £217,517). Merchandise sales were £13,627 in the year (2022: £12,745). Total income reached £293,585 (2022: £270,364).

Expenditure for the year was £276,484 (2022: £213,317), resulting in a current surplus of £17,101 (2022: surplus of £57,047).

Structure, governance and management

a. Constitution

The charity is controlled by its governing document.

b. Method of appointment or election of Trustees

The Board of Trustees carries out regular reviews to identify any gaps in the knowledge and experience of our Board needs to further Aching Arms work. Potential new trustees are required to submit an application form, and if taken forward they are then invited to attend a Board meeting, following which they attend an interview, and if both parties are happy and willing to continue, their application is submitted to the next scheduled trustees meeting for confirmation of appointment.. New trustees are provided with access to relevant policy and procedure documents that are appropriate to the role they undertake as trustees.

ec. Risk management We continue to assess, review and plan for all risks the organisation may face now and in the future. All new projects and activities developed and run by Aching Arms undergo a risk assessment before they begin. This process highlights awareness to the potential risks faced and will assist with the development of robust contingency plans.

The trustees have identified the risks to which the charity is exposed and have implemented procedures to manage those risks. The risk of the charity are reviewed at Trustee meetings on a regular basis.

Plans for the future

We have ambitious growth plans for the future. Offering Aching Arms bears either through hospitals or directly by post to all parents whose baby has died is at the core of everything that we do and will continue to be our focus. In addition, we will grow our support services for bereaved families in the following areas: 1. Growing our ‘Supporting Arms’ services that was launched in 2020; 2. Extending the reach to ‘Supporting Arms for Dads’ service; 3. Developing the ‘Be Together’ program; 4. Supporting siblings through loss; 5. Supporting families whose loss was longer ago; and 6. Ensure our services are inclusive and accessible to families from diverse communities, including those with disabilities and ethnic minorities.

Independent Examiner’s Report for the Year Ended 31 July 2023

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Aching Arms

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Aching Arms (‘the charity’) for the year ended 31 July 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes.

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the CIO’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ACCA, which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

I have no concems 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 financial statements to be reached.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 July 2023

J. Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates The principle accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The charity is a public benefit entity and these financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Treland (FRS 102) (Second Edition)’ and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.

The financial! statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Second Edition)’ rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared using the historic cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

The company recognises revenue when:

The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;

it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities..

Tax

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Office equipment

Depreciation method and rate 4 years straight line basis

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.

Cash and cash equivalents

‘

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Page 9

ACHING ARMS

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 July 2023

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are recognised at their settlement amount.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular purposes within the objectives of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes,

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
