Henry’s Legacy, The Henry Allen Trust (THAT) are proud to have been a registered charity for 7 years and this year has been one of the most rewarding and financially secure. The Board of Trustees continue to be very dedicated, along with our Events Committee and THAT Support Committee are continuing to expand and grow Henry’s Annual Events. Post pandemic and as per the previous year, we decided this year to continue to concentrate on our larger events and help other companies help us to fundraise with less resources being used. The volunteers continue to grow and active during various parts of the year and at a variety of events. THAT have reached even more children, teens, young adults, and families battling Childhood Cancers in MK, surrounding areas and in the UK.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
Team Henry have continued to improve the processes within MKUH shared Care Hospital and been involved in making some important decisions improving the care and facilities. We continue to raise vital awareness of Childhood Caners with various literature, social media presence and at seminars, conferences, and training sessions. Our vision for Henry’s Home has been placed on hold due to the constraints surrounding the new management within the hospital. There is still hope that this will still be something we will be evaluating in the coming years. However, we have found a piece of land and investigations are ongoing. Dawn Allen, Founder and Director continues to be a voice and a PEADs Representative and now sits on many boards and a chairperson of Milton Keynes Cancer Patient Partnerships well as a lot of CCG’s and MDT’s. Junior Trustees continue to be a voice and make a real difference to Henry’s Legacy. THAT Support continued throughout 2021 with various monthly meet-ups which enabled the families to talk to each other, get help and support and let the children be children is a safe environment. Team Henry continued to supply care parks, arts and crafts, toy packs and equipment to the following hospitals: MKUH, Stoke Manderville, Addenbrooks, JR, BCH, and UCLH. We also continue to ask the public for donations, monetary and gifts.

Our Financial grants continued to be a BIG hit with all families and CLIC Sargent social workers we support. This has now rolled out to most of the oncology wards in the UK.
Team Henry also confirmed the introduction of hospital visits and taking in food for families in isolation and treats really helped the children and families.

Continued support for CLIC Sargent Social Workers up and down the country with families.
Continued health and well-being support with our trained counsellor. The families have truly benefited from this, and our counsellor has worked alongside other health care professionals.
