Trustees’ Annual Report for the period

From 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2021

Charity name: Team Evie

Charity registration number: 1164489

Objectives and Activities

SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document		 Para 1.17 The objects of the CIO are the relief of
sickness and preservation of health of
children and their families by the provision
of equipment and resources to the
Community Nursing Team in West Cumbria
and the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit at
the Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle.
Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.		 Para 1.17 and
1.19		 The CIO provides equipment to the
community team to enable families to look
after their sick children at home (such as
monitors of heart rate and oxygen
saturations). The CIO provides resources
for families who are nursing a sick child in
hospital, such as a portable library
(research proves that parents reading to
children aids recovery, promotes
relationships and gives parents a greater
sense of control, intimacy and normality),
iPads (with educational resources and to
aid cognitive development), sensory
equipment, physiotherapy aids and
bereavement services/ materials for
families. The CIO will promote awareness
of particular medical problems, such as
Tracheoesophageal Fistulas (TOFs), which
affects 1/3500 babies, yet parents are
unaware and unprepared for what this
means for their child and their family.
Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit		 Para 1.18 The trustees have had regard to the
guidance issued by the Charity
Commission on public benefit when
planning the activities of the CIO. Without
vital equipment, e.g. SATs and heart rate
monitors, families cannot care for their sick
children at home and they would need to
remain in hospital. Through the CIO’s
purchases families are able to be together
at home, where they should be. The
equipment bought will be used by a
succession of families over time in the
West Cumbria area. Having a child in
intensive care can mean that families can't
bond with their child as they would
normally. Research has shown that 69% of
parents feel closer to their baby through
reading and 86% of parents said they
enjoyed it. Parents described how reading
helped them to gain an increased sense of
control, intimacy and normality. Staff in
PICU (Paediatric Intensive Care Unit)
suggested the iPads. They felt they would
aid cognitive development, provide
educational resources and could be used
by siblings of sick children and parents as a
reprieve from the intense environment.
There is a lack of sensory equipment and
physiotherapy aids in the PICU. Long term
patients in intensive care need stimulation
to aid continued cognitive development
while incapacitated. The children also
require much support to continue their
physical development and without the
purchase of more equipment children miss
out. The bereavement support will provide
comfort, information and help for families in
their greatest time of need, following the
loss of their child. Raising awareness of
TOFs is vital in supporting families when
their child is diagnosed with this condition.

Achievements and Performance

Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its

benefits to society as a

COVID-19 restrictions, however we have
still been able to support families during
their time of need.

We have also provided these parent packs
to many of the wards we support.
We have also continued to supply packs to
families who are admitted to the Special
Care Baby Units in Whitehaven and
Carlisle. These packs include comfort items
for the baby, essential items for p
Although challenging due to COVID we
have been able to support families in their
time of need after the death of a child by
providing a respite retreat in the shape of a
holiday lodge for families.

Financial Review
