## **About Us** 

_Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd wants to prevent people dying from blood cancer through more effective treatment in the future. We are willing to fight blood cancer regardless of how long it might take._ 

Founded in 2015, our mission is to prevent people dying from blood cancer through prevention, research and more effective treatment. 

Unfortunately, blood cancer affects a large number of people. Every 13 minutes, someone in the UK is told they have a blood cancer. That’s around 110 people per day, 40,000 people per year. There are an estimated 4,700 leukaemia deaths every year, that’s 13 every day! 

We are aiming to become the UK’s leading charity in supporting efforts to combat the three major types of blood cancer. The work we do helps fund vital stem cell research, raises awareness of stem cell therapies and helps families protect their children’s future health by storing their cord blood stem cells at the time of birth. 

There are 3 main types of cancers of the blood; they are lymphoma, leukaemia and myeloma. 

treat patients with blood cancer, particularly through stem cell transplants. We do this by: 

The blood is made up of three different types of cells: 

• Red blood cells which carry the oxygen around the body • White blood cells which fight and stop infections 

• Actively supporting stem cell research into blood cancers • Raising awareness of stem cell therapies 

• Platelets which help the blood to clot 

• Provide information about blood cancers and treatment options 

The course of treatment given will depend on the type of cancer. The most common treatments are chemotherapy, radiotherapy and in some instances, a stem cell transplant. 

• Protecting the vulnerable by offering qualifying expectant mothers, with a family history of cancer, the opportunity to store their baby’s umbilical cord blood stem cells at the time of birth, in case they are needed in the future to treat that child or another member of the family if they’re a suitable match. 

In essence, the Charity wants to eradicate blood cancer once and for all. One of the ways we are aiming to achieve that is through advancing our understanding of stem cells and how we can use them to 

This service is called Model Cell Biobank (MCB).

## **Stem Cells** 

_In humans, there are two types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells, which are found in various tissues._ 

Adult stem cells are the primary focus of the research that the Charity supports. They typically generate the cell types of the tissue in which they reside. 

For example, a blood-forming adult stem cell in the bone marrow normally gives rise to the many types of blood cells. It is generally accepted that a blood-forming cell in the bone marrow—which is called a hematopoietic stem cell— cannot give rise to the cells of a very different tissue, such as nerve cells in the brain. 

## **Where are stem cells found?** 

There are four known accessible sources of autologous adult stem cells in humans: 

• Bone marrow which requires harvesting by drilling into bone (typically the femur or iliac crest). This is done under a general anesthetic. 

• Blood, which requires extraction through apheresis, wherein blood is drawn from the donor (similar to a blood donation), and passed through a machine that extracts the stem cells and then returns the blood to the donor. 


• Adipose tissue (lipid cells), which requires extraction by liposuction 

cancers, such as sickle cell anaemia and aplastic anaemia. 

• Umbilical cord blood - these stem cells can be collected from the umbilical cord blood just after birth. 

For most types of blood cancers, for example: leukaemia, lymphoma and various anaemia’s, the treatments use allogeneic stem cell transplants (someone else’s stem cells). The reason for this is that the person may have a genetic predisposition to the disease; their genes have a defect that predisposes them to that disease. 

## **What can stem cells be used for today?** 

There are treatments where Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplants (HSCT) - the transplantation of blood forming stem cells - is a standard treatment. For some diseases they are the only therapy, and in other diseases they are only employed when front-line therapies have failed or the disease is very aggressive. 

However there are various types of cancers (some myelomas, plasma cell leukaemia, some anaemia’s and solid tumours) that are treated using autologous stem cells (using your own stem cells). 

There are other blood disorders that can be treated with stem cells that aren’t

## **Charitable Activities** 

Providing Information Throughout the year we have shared facts about blood cancer, including the signs, symptoms and treatments. We have achieved this through our regular newsletter, social media channels, website, and our blood cancer booklet. This provides patients with clear and informative advice that would answer their questions, explain terminology, discuss treatments so they are better prepared and able to make informed choices. 

We produce a quarterly newsletter that shines a spotlight on our inspirational fundraisers and their stories; highlights our exciting plans for the future and provides information relating to blood cancer. It is available from our website free of charge. 

## Medical Research 

Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd allocate research grants to those who uphold our primary objectives. These are to benefit the public, in particular by research into the nature, causes, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cure of leukaemia and myeloma. 

Our current funding priorities are to advance understanding of stem cells and how they can 

be used to treat blood cancer patients. All grant applications are reviewed by the Charity’s Research and Review Committee, an independent panel of experts. The Charity is a member of the Association of Medical Research Charities, the AMRC. 

## Fundraising Activities 

Over the last year, the Charity expanded its textile recycling project so it now includes local schools to the Merseyside and Greater Manchester areas. This is with the aim of raising awareness of both blood cancer and of the environmental benefits of recycling. It also continues to raise valuable funds for the charities work. 


In conjunction with this, our fundraisers have been busy running events from cake sales to sky dives. This has secured £127,500 of funding to support our services and help in the fight against cancer. 

Model Cell Biobank Service This service was established to support families who are on low income, have a history of cancer in the family, to store their babies cord blood stem cells at the time of birth. These cells are stored for 25 years in case that child, or another member of the family, needs them in the future to treat a disease. 

The cord blood stem cells can be used today instead of bone marrow stem cells to treat blood cancer and genetic disorders. In fact, recent studies show that over 80 diseases could be treated using cord blood stem cells.

## **Chairman’s Report** 


It remains one of our key focuses, to widen awareness of blood cancer. We have achieved this in a number of ways. 

In May, the Charity engaged in World Blood Cancer Day, sharing informative posts on social media and producing an article for Charity Today. Following this, in June we marked National Myeloma Awareness week, where we shared our informative blog ‘What is Myeloma?’ to help raise awareness of the signs and symptoms. 

A poll carried out by leading charities found that out of 2,000 participants only 1% were able to name the 4 main symptoms of leukaemia. This highlighted the urgent need to raise public awareness of the symptoms of this type of blood cancer. In response, during Blood Cancer Awareness Month in September we helped 

people identify common symptoms and also raised awareness of the different treatment options available, particularly cord blood banking and its many benefits. 

In November, we celebrated World Cord Blood Day, sharing information and networking with like minded bodies. 

In January, we launched the School Textile Recycling Scheme in the Liverpool and Greater Manchester areas. The team have been working hard to engage with schools and spread the message. 

In March we celebrated Myeloma Awareness Month by educating people about this form of blood cancer and the common symptoms to look out for. We teamed up with former NHS worker and myeloma survivor, Jan Cashen (pictured above) and the West Lancs & Merseyside Myeloma 

Support Group, to promote the importance of funding blood cancer research and the value of support groups to those being treated or recovering from the disease. 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our volunteers and fundraisers without their support we wouldn’t be able to continue to offer the services that we do.

## **Operation Director’s Report** 

I would like to start by celebrating our inaugural winners of the charities Fundraiser of the Year award, Elaine and Peter Kinsella. They raised an incredible £8,000 for three charities. 

We have had some fantastic fundraising efforts this year from walking and cycling to skydives! To give a few examples, 21-year-old Ben Saunders (pictured below) took part in an epic skydiving challenge to raise money for Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd in memory of childhood friend, William Pearce. 

For the first time ever we secured places in the London to Brighton Charity Bike Ride in September 2022. We were incredulous at the response - with 74 riders taking part, including 50 employees from professional machinery and service provider Lister Wilder. The Lister Wilder Team 

raised £22,250 which LMRUK are honoured to have allocated to a grant named the Lister Wilder Research Grant (pictured right). Someone who knows the importance of our research work is Research Review Committee member, Dr Rhys Morgan. Dr Morgan raised more than £1,400 in the ride, which he completed in memory of his younger brother David. 

Further support came from members of the congregation at a church in Coventry have helped to raise over £5,000 for blood cancer research in memory of a much-loved member of their congregation who passed away from the disease. 

We were fortunate to be awarded some corporate support including becoming Charity of the Year for Bognor Regis Golf Club. Ladies 


Captain, Heather Tidy, kindly secured £2,767 over the year. 

A Scottish recruitment company celebrated its 35th birthday in business with a £3,000 donation. 

We were fortunate to be one of the 20 good causes the Orion Group, headquartered in Inverness, who donated a total of £35,000 to, as a way of marking its anniversary. 

Our cord blood banking service continues to grow from strength to strength. At the turn of the year we began a partnership with Smart Cells

We are extremely grateful to the generous funding received from Fundraising Support Ltd who have helped this service support even more families. 

Much Loved is a special memorial website in tribute to loved ones, where people can share thoughts and stories with family and friends. Through this scheme, donations can be made to charity. We are incredibly grateful to all the donations we have received this year in memory of loved ones. 

I would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to all our fundraisers for their hard work and to our dedicated staff team and partners who have pulled together to make 202223 such a huge success. All of our fundraisers are important - we simply would not be able to run these services without their help.

## **MCB Service** 

## **Overview** 

**The Model Cell Biobank (MCB)** service allows the storage of a child’s umbilical cord blood stem cells at the time of birth, in case they or another member of the family needs them in the future to help in the treatment of a disease. It may be possible to use the stem cells to treat blood cancers or in emerging therapies to treat diseases such as diabetes, cerebral palsy and Parkinson’s disease. Clinical trials are being performed all over the world looking at the potential use of stem cells to treat new diseases and hopefully further breakthroughs. 

When a baby is born and the umbilical cord is cut, the placenta and umbilical cord are normally thrown away. The blood that remains in the cord and the placenta contains stem cells. The Charity offers a service to collect these stem cells without any risk to the mother and baby, and to store them in case that child or another member of the family needs them in the future. 

the age of majority, at which point, ownership transfers to the child. After 25 years, the cells can be privately stored, donated for research, offered to a public bank, or destroyed. Consent from the child will be sought at this point and we would strongly encourage the donation of any remaining cells to public banks. 

The cord blood banking service is available to qualifying expectant mothers who live in the UK. They must be in receipt of Housing Benefit, Council tax or Universal Credit (at least one of these) and must meet the following criteria: 

• The stem cells will be used to treat the child, or another member of the family, for a medically attested treatment; • There is a history of cancer in the immediate family. 

We recently extended the project to support low-income families by implementing a part funded service for those who have medical history, but are not on benefits. 

Smart Cells Technical is our chosen partner to procure; process and store cord stem cells under its Human Tissue Authority licence. 

Smart Cells has a strong reputation for standards it applies to the storage and processing of stem cells derived from umbilical cord and peripheral blood, bone marrow, now extending to many types of tissues for human application or transplant. 

Smart Cells not only works to the highest standards, it also has an ethical approach, which aligns with our charity, something we are proud of. 

The cord blood stem cells are stored on behalf of the child for 25 years. The mother is the legal guardian of the cells until the child reaches

## **Advantages of Cord Blood Stem Cells** 

Today, cord blood banking is changing lives and there have already been more than one million stem cell transplants around the world since the 1980s. 

The stem cells in your baby’s cord blood are fully developed adult stem cells, which are the building blocks of the blood immune system. These stem cells can be used instead of bone marrow stem cells to treat blood cancers and genetic disorders. Cord blood stem cells have many advantages including: • They are easily available, having already been harvested and stored; 

## **Future Plans** 

• Cord blood stem cells can be stored for many years - the longevity of these cells has proved they are as good 30 years later as on as the day they were first extracted and stored. 

• A new born baby has been exposed to fewer viruses and infections and so the stem cells are less likely to transmit infection and react with the patient; 

• Cord blood stem cells offer the life-saving option of a transplant and avoids the invasive, painful and expensive procedures of other stemcell collection, such as bone marrow; 


There are now a number of stem cells banks in the UK and interest in private storage has grown considerably over the last few years. 

However, this is hugely expensive and means many people cannot take advantage of this service as the cost is too prohibitive. 

There is also a huge shortage of stem cells being collected from BME communities - leaving them vulnerable and without a choice of treatment should they fall ill with blood cancer or another disease. Those from a minority ethnic background have only a 37% chance of finding a bone marrow match from an unrelated donor, whereas 

someone from a white Caucasian background has a 72% chance. 

For this reason, over the next financial year we are promoting our funded stem cell collection and storage service to BME communities to increase awareness of stem cell treatments and encourage donations from this sector.

## **Case Stud – Natalia’s Stor y y** 

The Cord Blood Stem Cell Pilot project was launched in 2017 and since this time we have received nearly 300 enquiries – which far exceeded our expectations. To date, this has resulted in 36 successful cord blood stem cell extractions. 

Our very first client was Natalia and this is her story: I am 24 years old and have 3 children aged six, three, and six months old. Whilst pregnant with my third child, I was diagnosed with lymphoma cancer in my neck. When I found out that I had cancer I was filled with guilt for my children – I was so worried that this could be hereditary and passed onto them. After doing some research into my family, I found out that my auntie had been diagnosed with cancer and that my grandfather had died from it. I had to do something to protect my children. 

Cord blood stem cell storage and transplants are very costly so many cannot afford to use this potentially lifesaving service. This would certainly have been the case for us, however Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd’s Model Cell Biobank offers a fully-funded service to qualifying families. If it wasn’t for this service we would never have been able to afford to store our baby’s cord 

of whom should be a strong match should any of them ever need it. 

## blood stem cells. 

The process was really straightforward, we were sent a kit which contained all the information that we needed for the cord blood storage and collection. 

Ever since my diagnosis I have felt an enormous sense of guilt about the chance of any of my children getting cancer – it is a mother’s worst nightmare. 

When I went into labour, a phlebotomist came to the hospital and waited until the baby was delivered. Then they took a sample of cord blood to collect the stem cells, which caused no harm or pain to our baby or myself, and packaged it safely and securely. 

I am incredibly grateful to have found out about this potentially lifesaving service, and even if we don’t use the stored cord blood stem cells, it is reassuring to know that they will not go to waste. 

My reason for storing my son’s cord blood stem cells is not for my use but for my children, all

Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd offer research grants to those who uphold our primary objectives: to protect and promote the health of the public, in particular by research into the nature, causes, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cure of leukaemia and myeloma. 

“On average less than 15% of AML patients will survive longer than five years. FLT3 is a significant contributory factor, it’s really pushing this disease and we have to shut it down,” said Dr Fernandes. 

The Trustees funding priorities are to advance understanding of stem cells and how they can be used to treat blood cancer patients, particularly through stem cell transplants. In July 2022 we awarded Dr Ricardo Fernandes and his 

The grant money will help the team move the research forward more quickly and 


allow them to focus all their attention over the next year on tackling the FLT3 receptor problem. 

It will ultimately help in the development of a prototype for a drug that can be used as an effective treatment in the future. Dr Ricardo Fernandes hopes that moving forward, this type of research could be applicable to other types of cancer as well.

## **Fundraisin and Volunteers g** 

## _Churchgoers fundraising campaign in memory of a much-loved friend and wife._ 

Members of the congregation at a church in Coventry have helped to raise over £5,000 for blood cancer research charity, Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd (LMRUK) in memory of a much-loved member of their congregation who passed away from the disease. 

Pat Elliman from Coventry was about to begin a round of stronger chemotherapy treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) in hospital in December 2020 when she passed away in the arms of her devoted husband Malcolm. 

Well known for her generous and kind nature, as well as a talent for baking, Pat was an active member of Holyhead Road United Reformed Church in the city for many years. Since her death, other members of the church have been holding a range of fundraising events after selecting LMRUK as its chosen charity for 2022. 

The fundraising effort has been coordinated by Karen Adams, supported by her mum, Sue Adams and Malcolm. It was 

August 2020 and Pat had just given her 97th donation of blood when she arrived back home feeling very tired. Within a few days, blood tests and a bone marrow analysis revealed she had incurable AML FLT3 WILD. 

emergency admissions for infections. It was only two days before her death that she was told her condition was worsening and she chose to undertake the stronger chemotherapy treatment. Malcom says “I could write a book about Pat’s trials and bravery during those five months but also understand that many people have the same experience. The haematology staff were incredibly kind and caring throughout and I can’t thank them enough. “I am grateful that the church Pat loved so much is raising money for LMRUK in memory of her, but also to help other sufferers. I will do everything I can to support this fundraising,” 

Malcom has already been part of the fundraising effort by doing a sponsored walk from Coventry to Kenilworth, a walk he and Pat would often do. Other fundraising events have included quiz and bingo evenings, a sponsored spell event by members of the 7th Coventry Girls’ Brigade Company, a secondhand book sale at a local shopping centre, craft and cake sales. 

Karen and fellow family members completed a sponsored step challenge while on holiday in Devon. They set themselves a target of 600,000 in eight days and managed over 900,000. 

During the Covid-19 pandemic she endured three courses of chemotherapy over several months, much of which had to take place at her home because of lockdown restrictions. But she also had to endure many visits to hospital for treatment, including two 

“We were originally aiming to raise £4,000, but our current total is over £5,000 – the highest amount we have raised for a chosen project”, said Karen. The cheque was presented to LMRUK in January 2023.

This targeted level is deemed essential by the trustees to ensure an adequate financial cushion for covering support and governance costs. The Reserves Policy will undergo an annual review, aligning with the scrutiny of the charity's annual accounts. 

In light of the events of the past year, marked by a significant surge in inflation, escalating living costs, and an increased risk of economic downturn, the trustees have determined that a prudent Reserves amount must be set at £150,000. This decision is reflective of the charity's commitment to financial resilience and its responsiveness to the evolving economic landscape. 

## _**Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds**_ 

The board of trustees is satisfied that the charity's assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **Statement of  the Directors Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . 

In particular, the Companies Act 2006 and charity law require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :- 

- to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and 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 business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of 

recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material 

departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. 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. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements.

## **Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd** 

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charitable company on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charitable company on pages 9 to 33 for the year ended 31 March 2023 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 15. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report** 

As described on page 5, you, the charitable company's Trustees, who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of Company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. 

The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to Section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act; 

b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000, the charitable company's examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am an authorised member of Chartered Certified Accountants , which is one of the listed bodies. 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under s145 of the Act. 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 setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charitable company and of the accounting systems employed by the charitable company and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the Trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries and does not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide 

Consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. 

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters.

## **Leukaemia & Myeloma Research UK Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Policies relating to the production of the accounts.**_ 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice. 

## **Risks and future assumptions** 

The charity is a public benefit entity. 

This policy is a formal acknowledgement that LMRUK is committed to maintaining a strong risk management framework and making every effort to manage risk appropriately by maximising potential opportunities whilst minimising the adverse effects of risks. It should be used to support the internal control systems of the charity, enabling LMRUK to respond to operational, strategic and financial risks regardless of whether they are internally or externally driven. 

## _**Policies relating to categories of income and income recognition.**_ 

## **Nature of income** 

Gross income represents the value, net of value added tax and discounts, of goods provided to customers and work carried out in respect of services provided to customers. 

## **Categories of Income** 

Income is categorised as income from exchange transactions (contract income) and income from non-exchange transactions (gifts), investment income and other income. 

Income from exchange transactions is received by the charity for goods or services supplied under contract or where entitlement is subject to fulfilling performance related conditions. The income the charity receives is approximately equal in value to the goods or services supplied by the charity to the purchaser. 

Income from a non-exchange transaction is where the charity receives value from the donor without providing equal value in exchange, and includes donations of money, goods and services freely given without giving equal value in exchange.

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## **Income recognition** 

Income, whether from exchange or non exchange transactions, is recognised in the statement of financial activities (SOFA) on a receivable basis, when a transaction or other event results in an increase in the charity’s assets or a reduction in its liabilities and only when the charity has legal entitlement, the income is probable and can be measured reliably. 

Dividends are accrued when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established. 

Income subject to terms and conditions which must be met before the charity is entitled to the resources is not recognised until the conditions have been met. 

All income is accounted for gross, before deducting any related fees or costs. 


## **Income from legacies** 

Income from legacies is recognised when the charity has sufficient evidence that a gift has been left to them, that where required, probate has been granted, the executor is satisfied that the property in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estate, that it is probable that the amount will be received by the charity, and the amount to be received can be estimated with sufficient accuracy, and that any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. 

Where a payment is received from an estate or is notified as receivable by the executors after the reporting date and before the accounts are authorised for issue but it is clear that the payment had been agreed by the executors prior to the end of the reporting period, then the amount concerned is treated as an adjusting event and accrued as income in the accounting period if receipt is probable. 

Where the charity has established entitlement to a legacy but there is uncertainty as to the amount of the payment, details of the legacy are disclosed as a contingent asset until the criteria for income recognition are met. Where a legacy is subject to the interest of a life tenant, the legacy is not recognised as income until the death of the life tenant. 

If it is doubtful that full settlement of a legacy debtor will be received, then an adjustment is made to reduce the amount of the legacy debtor and legacy income rather than charging the adjustment as expenditure in the Statement of Financial Activities

## **Donated goods, facilities and services** 

Donated fixed assets are recognised at the current fair value. All such donations are recognised as donation income, and debited to fixed assets. 

Donated goods that are not fixed assets are accounted for at a fair value, unless it is impractical to reliably measure the value of the donated items. 

In the absence of any direct evidence of fair value of donated goods, then a value is derived from the cost of the item to the donor or, in the case of goods that are expected to be sold, the estimated resale value after deducting any anticipated costs of sales. 

If it is impracticable to measure the fair value of goods donated for resale, or the costs of valuation outweigh the benefits, the donated goods are recognised as income when sold, with an equivalent amount being recognised as an expense. 

The costs of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those goods upon receipt. When the goods are distributed freely or for a nominal consideration, then the carrying amount is adjusted at the time of sale, to the value at the point of distribution and the adjustment is shown as a cost of donations made. 

The carrying amount of any stock held for distribution is assessed for impairment at the reporting date. All donated goods are recognised as donation income, and debited to trading stock.When trading stock is subsequently sold, or appropriated to meet an expense, then the carrying value of the stock is recognised as an expense. In accordance with the SORP, goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries, or for consumption by the charity are included in _'legacies and donations_ '. Goods donated for resale are included in _'Income from other trading activities'_ 

The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt. If the goods held are to be distributed freely or for a nominal consideration, then the carrying amount is subsequently adjusted to reflect the lower of deemed cost adjusted for any loss of service potential and replacement cost. Replacement cost is the economic cost incurred if the charity was to replace the service potential of the donated goods at its own expense in the most economic manner. 

Donated services and facilities (including seconded staff and use of property) are included in the accounts on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. 

All donated services and facilities are recognised as donation income when received,(provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably) and recognised as an expense with an equivalent value. 

## _**Policies relating to expenditure on goods and services provided to the charity.**_ 

## **Allocating costs to activities** 

Direct costs that are specifically related to an activity are allocated to that activity. Shared direct costs and support costs are apportioned between activities. 

The basis for apportionment, which is consistently applied, and proportionate to the circumstances, is :- 

**Staffing** - on the basis of time spent in connection with any particular activity. **Staffing** - on a per capita basis, based on the number of of people employed within any partiular activity. **Premises related costs** - on the proportion of floor area occupied by a particular activity. 

**Non specific support costs** - on the basis of the usage of resources, in terms of time taken, capacity used, request made or other measures 

**Estimation techniques** used in apportioning costs - give details

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023** 

## _**Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters.**_ 

## **Stocks and work in progress** 

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date. 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

Liabilities are measured at their settlement amount. A liability is recognised for the amount the Charity anticpates it will pay to settle the deb t or the amount it has received as an advance payment for goods or services it must provide. 

## **2 Liability to taxation** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity** 

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity. 

No employees received emoluments (excluding pension costs) in excess of £60,000 per annum. 

## **4 Defined contribution pension schemes** 

Any liabilites and assets associated with the scheme are shown under debtors and creditors. 

## **5 Remuneration and payments to Trustees and persons connected with them** 

The trustees received payments in the amount of £1,292 as travel expenses related to providing services for clothing collection. 

No persons connected with the trustees received any remuneration from the charity, or any related entity. 

## **6 Trustees' expenses** 

There were no Trustees' expenses in the year and in the prior year.
