Beliefs – Little Miracles strives to provide effective solutions to meet local needs, and to campaign for change that will ensure that families with disabled children get the support they need to reach their full potential.
Activities, achievements and performance
Little Miracles is a charity that exists to provide support to families that have children with additional needs, disabilities and life limiting conditions. Although we started in Peterborough and continue to deliver services from here in our purpose-built building, we are also now delivering services across the Eastern Region.
Due to Covid-19 this has been a year like no other! We started the year with uncertainty, during a lock down providing virtually all of our services online and for safety reasons due to the needs of the families that we support this continued for the whole of this year. That said we had one of our busiest years and welcomed we have supported over 25,000 people!!! 10,000 children received support via online events and we also directly supported almost 15,000 parents directly. These figures do not include the children that would have benefitted from support provided to their parents or the 104,000 people we interacted with on social media.
We are very fortunate to have an amazing staff team that we would like to thank for giving their all during these challenging times. We would also make a special mention to our volunteers who have made this increase possible. During this year we had 504 active volunteers who have delivered essential items as well as the more fun activities to families unable to leave their homes. They have provided counselling, emotional support and benefits advice, adapted and delivered sessions to groups and young people individually and helped them keep up with their education.
Financially it has been a year where we have struggled to fundraise in the typical ways. We were able to get some support from the Government however this did not reach us until September 2020 and so special mention needs to go to the companies and grant makers who have supported us. In particular The King Baudouin Foundation who in the beginning of the outbreak was the first to pledge their support and ensured our survival.
The families we support have children with a wide range of needs with 32% of children having 1 diagnosed disability, 50% having between 2 and 4 different diagnosis and 18% having over 5 different diagnosed disabilities. Autism is by far the most predominant need that we see with 39% of the young people either being diagnosed or on the diagnosis pathway however we support families with a wide range of needs and

Little Miracles
Trustees’ report (continued)
For the year ended 31 March 2021 Page 3
21% of families would describe their child as life limited due to their health needs. The average age of the children we supported was 10 years old (1% under 12 months, 19% 1-5 years, 45% in primary school, 27% in secondary school, 5% as young adults under 18 and 2% young adults 19 to 25.)
77% of the families that we work with have been shielded for at least a proportion of the pandemic which is why we chose to take a conservative approach to reopening our face-to-face services however we did remain open throughout Covid 19 including seeing people on a face-to-face basis when it was in their best interests to do so.
Our priorities have changed slightly due to what our families have said they need by can be broadly classified as
Support
-
Counselling
-
Benefits advice
-
Bereavement care - Education Support
-
-
- Play therapy Emergency Essentials including food
-
-
-
- Sensory work Behaviour Support
-
-
- Family support
Support is the biggest area that we have worked in this year and everything that could be delivered online was delivered online. We were one of the fortunate organisations which was prepared for Covid 19. Emergency plan 13 was developed in case our main site and all back up sites were unable to be used eg due to flood but having this plan in place meant that we were prepared and able to adapt accordingly.
A new service for us this year was delivering emergency essentials including food. This has been very labour intensive but a massive part of what we delivered during this year. This is for a variety of reasons including people not being able to leave their homes due to either shielding or Covid 19 but also because the cost of living has increased meaning the families that we support have been disproportionately affected. This is particularly true where families have one parent working full time on a low income and the other as a fulltime carer. Special thanks must be given to Jill Bedward Jones who coordinated our food deliveries on a voluntary basis, all of the volunteers involved in the preparing and delivering process and the organisations that donated food including
-

-
Fulbridge Road School
-
Tesco
-
Peterborough Food Bank
-
Neighbourly
-
Food for Nought
Together we have delivered 34,261 food parcels to families.
Activities
-
Parent and child groups
-
Virtual playschemes
-
After school clubs - Virtual youth clubs
-
- Sports sessions - Education and social events
Because all of our events have had to be delivered online this has massively impacted our attendance levels and we are looking forward to being able to return to some normality and welcome children back on a faceto-face basis. During this time many young people found themselves learning at home for the first time and feeling very isolated as a result. As a result of this we found ourselves running sessions online every hour between 10am and 7pm aimed at different groups of young people. The families that have particularly struggled during this time are those who were shielding and could not access online support. This might be for a variety of reasons and we have worked hard to get technology out to families in need but for some young people it has been incredibly hard to access anything online eg those with dual sensory impairments.
The highlight of the year was for the 1019 children who would not see Santa in any other way benefitting from a ‘Doorstep Santa Visit.’
Training
Our training offering is available to both the parents and the young people and includes
-
Social education for children not in traditional forms of education this has been particularly important this year with so many children being taught from home and we have delivered education support to small groups and on a one-to-one basis five days a week every week throughout this year.
-
For young adults with needs to help them into employment
-
For parents/carers to support them into paid employment
-
Disability specific training for parents
Respite
Whilst we have been providing informal respite for a number of years in terms of the youth clubs and one to one support, this year, we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of young people who need additional support and we have run a small trial on a referral only basis for a small group of children and this is something that we hope to expand upon in the coming years.
Safe Spaces

Little Miracles
Trustees’ report (continued)
For the year ended 31 March 2021 Page 5
This year has been difficult in providing safe spaces for families to be able to attend because Covid 19 has meant we had to temporarily close a number of our sites, but we currently have
-
14 branches within 2 hours of our Head Office in Peterborough
-
A fully adapted caravan in Kelling Heath (which has been open when legally allowed to welcome families)
We hope to be able to reopen our buildings and sensory rooms in the near future when it is safe to do so.
Financial review
Total income received during the year increased to £506,984 compared with £394,807 in the previous year. Total expenditure during the year amounted to £366,206, a decrease from £380,813 in the previous year.
As a result, a net surplus of £140,778 has been generated and added to reserves compared to a surplus of £13,994 in the previous year. On the surface this looks like we have had a better financial year than any since 2018 however in practice this is because The National Lottery helped us bolster our reserves because we need to keep three months funding in reserves at all times or consider closure and we are incredibly grateful for their support in order to keep running. We also had funding received upfront in the last two months of the financial year which are for wages costs for the following year. Our budgets remain incredibly tight at all times requiring close control of to our management accounts and cashflow.
Reserves policy
The Trustees' policy is to maintain a sufficient level of general reserves to enable the Charity to continue in normal existence for three months, followed by an orderly curtailment of activities over the following three months if necessary.
It is the aim of the Trustees to review this policy on an annual basis. The Trustees therefore aim to hold up to six months of expenditure as unrestricted funds.
At 31 March 2021 unrestricted funds amounted to £236,940 (2020: £65,012) which provides a base for the Charity to move forward with its future plans as set out above. Restricted funds amounted to £88,594 (2020 £140,245) enabling existing projects to continue and salaries to be paid.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Little Miracles For the year ended 31 March 2021 Page 8
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Little Miracles for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 8 to 17.
Responsibilities of trustees and examiner
As the trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). You are satisfied that the accounts are not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination.
I report in respect of my examination of the accounts. I have carried out my examination under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the Trust’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 member of the ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records with respect to the Charity were not kept as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
I confirm that there are no other matters to which your attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. Loveth Watson AFA
