## **Phil’s Kids** 

## **Trustees’ Annual Report** 

## **For The Year End 31 October 2022** 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The objects of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation are: 

1. To advance the health of individuals and families of people at risk of Huntington’s Disease (HD) and those already suffering by, in particular, but not exclusively, promoting safe, medically sanctioned, and proven methods of reproduction for people at risk or suffering from HD to have HD-free children. 

2. Providing the opportunity for those at risk or suffering from HD to access medically sanctioned and proven methods for reproducing HD-free children and helping to relieve the emotional and psychological suffering of people suffering or at risk of HD surrounding their reproductive choices. At this time, the geographical area is limited to the United Kingdom. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

As with many of our fellow charities, we at Phil’s Kids continued to struggle with the repercussions of the pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis.  Our supporters turned out for our regular fundraising event, the “Backyard Barbeque,” and we continued to receive monthly and sporadic donations. We did not receive any grant applications during this financial year; however, that was probably because the clinics were dealing with a backlog of IVF procedures and programmes after their temporary cessation during and after the pandemic. Therefore, although the year was quieter than usual, we continued to be available for inquiries, information, and support. 

One of our proudest achievements from the previous year was securing a place in the London Marathon.  Our first marathon runner raised a considerable amount which allowed us to give out multiple grants, and these grants led to our second and third HD-Free – Phil’s Kids babies being born. We were thrilled when we received a place for the 2020 race. Because of Covid-19, the race was deferred until October 2022.  Unfortunately, our runner for the 2022 race did not prepare or perform as expected or promised, and we missed out on considerable exposure. Instead of racing in one of our Phil’s Kids running vests, the runner chose to run in the costume for another registered charity showing absolutely nothing to mark or acknowledge the connection or sponsorship of Phil’s Kids.  The fundraising was also attempted half-heartedly, and supporters did not donate as expected as they stated they were unsure if the runner was for us or the other charity. The positive we gained from this was a new policy on representing Phil’s Kids in a formal or informal setting. 

We began work on our new webpage and placed a notice explaining that we were relaunching it. Until it is complete, we will remain available via social media, telephone and email.

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## Governance 

Phil's Kids was constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 27 August 2015. The accounts for the period of trading of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation for this report commence on I November 2021 and run until 31 October 2022. 

The trustees who have served during the period and since commencement are set out on page 3. None of the trustees. Nor has anyone connected to them received any remuneration or expenses from the Charity until 31 October 2022. 

The power to appoint trustees is vested in existing trustees. All significant decisions: including those of a financial nature, are made by the Board of Trustees at their meetings, which continued to be held via Microsoft Teams, Zoom and conference calls as this proved to be a much more effective way of doing business for our dispersed Board. 

The critical skills the trustees cover include economic management, planning and day-to-day running of the charity. 

## **Finance** 

The attached financial statements show the current state of the charity's finances, which the 

committee considers sound. 

## **Reserves** 

The current level of reserve total, £4,473.69, is considered an appropriate level of funds to be available for grants whilst allowing for some much-needed fundraising. 

1 PGT-IVF is the current acronym of the NHS, HEFA and Worldwide clinical bodies and organisations. 



## **Future Plans** 

For 2022/2023 onwards, the Board of Trustees plans to continue to re-establish their activities and build on the achievements of the charity by: 

- Aiming to inform and support people at risk of Huntingdon's Disease (HD) by using PGTIVF to start a family free of HD. 

- Investigating grants that may assist Phil’s Kids with grant dispersals and operating costs.
