The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and the Statement of Recommended Practice, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities", issued in March 2005.

Objectives and activities

Summary of Objects of the charity set out in its governing document :

'The relief of sickness and the preservation of health by relieving persons suffering from cancer and the families and carers of such persons by the provision of positive individual and/or family experiences with the object of aiding the recuperation of those suffering from the effects of cancer and its treatment and improving the conditions of life of such persons and their families.'

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects:

‘Something To Look Forward To’ provides donated gifts, experiences and essentials to people affected by cancer and facing cancer poverty as a result of their diagnosis.

These include free breaks in holiday cottages; restaurant meals; a day at the races; hotel stays; theatre tickets; beauty treatments; tickets for attractions… the list is endless.

Our

vision

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

Our

mission

To enhance the emotional wellbeing, relieve the stress and aid the recuperation of all people affected by cancer and their families.

Our Values

“Having ‘something to look forward to’ sounds a simple enough idea…something nice after you’ve had a rough time. But it is much more than that. After more than a year of worry, stress, pain, anxiety, and sadness, having ‘something to look forward to’ helps you have positive emotions again, and helps you relearn to experience joy. After so long of feeling detached from the world around you, it helps you find your place again. The kindness shown by your charity and your donors, in doing this for us, helps us feel supported on our journey with cancer.” (Beneficiary)

History

‘Something To Look Forward To’ was founded by Fiona and Andy Coldron in 2015 as a direct response of Fiona’s personal experience of living with a terminal cancer diagnosis and the impact this had on her, her family, and their finances. They found that small treats like a meal out or a night away gave them ‘Something To Look Forward To’ and this respite from the relentless slog of hospital visits, scans and treatment gave a great sense of wellbeing and assisted in the recovery process for them both. However, they also learnt firsthand the financial impact that comes hand and hand with a cancer diagnosis known as ‘cancer poverty’ meaning that at a time when they wanted to do these nice things suddenly became a time they could least afford to do so.

Fiona dedicated the last 6 years of her life to running the charity and improving the lives of others alongside her husband, daughter, and their small staff team. Fiona sadly passed away in 2021 and the charity is now spearheaded by her daughter and her husband in her memory alongside their small but mighty team.

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

This report covers the charity’s eighth year of operations and highlights our substantial growth and development in giving people affected by cancer poverty across the UK ‘Something To Look Forward To’.

Context

This year saw our charity providing services to people already experiencing cancer poverty which had been further exacerbated by the post pandemic and Brexit climate, the war in Ukraine and resulting food and energy crisis, surging inflation and debt tightening.

When requesting feedback from our beneficiaries to evaluate the impact our service has had, we ask people to scale themselves using the following question:

How much was your financial situation impacted by your cancer diagnosis? (1 being the lowest, 10 being the highest)

The average self-reported rating was 7.3 out of 10 indicating a moderate to severe financial impact.

Qualitative feedback highlighted the following:

“I have had to reduce my working hours due to effect of ongoing treatments. I am the main earner in our family of 5, so along with the cost-of-living crisis this has meant we have significantly less money left over after bills to do fun this as a family.” (Beneficiary)

“Prior to using ‘Something To Look Forward To’, my mental and physical health was at a low, I felt restricted by the fact that, having been the main earner in our family, I was not able to work and provide for my son. Treats went out of the window, and his mental health was suffering immeasurably.” (Beneficiary)

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

Provision

The charity provides the following donated gifts and experiences which are sourced from businesses and individuals:

Holidays and short breaks – These gifts provide couples and families with a break from their usual world of cancer treatment, scans, and results.

Business Partnerships

We maintained key partnerships with larger businesses who could donate a higher quantity of gifts and experiences helping us improve our reach within the cancer community and improve efficiency of service delivery.

New partnerships formed this year include:

Eve’s Place

Our charity caravan funded by the Pink Ribbon Foundation entered its second year of welcoming families affected by breast cancer for weeklong holidays that they couldn’t otherwise afford.

Through the period this report covers, we provided 42 breaks which improved the lives of 230 people affected by breast cancer including patients, carers, and families.

“Whilst in the caravan I reconnected with myself and felt more alive than ever. It has brought us all together. I had my kids cuddling up to me and I was emotionally available to them. It was great to have those quality times back after 9 months of not having those moments and sensations. Your generosity has made a huge impact on my and my family's life. We reconnected and enjoyed the nature surrounding the area, while being in a comfortable caravan. I was able to feel like a mum to my kids again after 9 months of just putting the face and holding on. THANK YOU is not enough.” (Beneficiary)

Projects

During the period of this report, we successfully delivered the following projects:

Our regional response programmes are delivered over the period of 1 year and enable us to set up, roll out and deliver the ‘Something To Look Forward To’ service in a geographical area that has been identified as having a lack of provision for it’s cancer community.

An example of what we were able to achieve via this type of project can be seen via our Midlands Project in which we with £10,000 of funding from the Woodhill Charitable Trust we were able to provide the following:

During this specific project we were able to provide a value of gifts and experiences worth over 10 x the value of the grant provided.

Impact

We continue to measure our impact across four main themes: Emotional Health and Wellbeing; Emotional impact on family and Carers; Identity; and Isolation. We ask beneficiaries to scale themselves on how they were feeling before and after using our service using a ten-point scale, with ten the highest level of wellbeing, and 1 being the lowest as well as leaving qualitative feedback.

Our quantitative results are as follows:

On average, service users rated their experience of applying for, receiving, and using their gift or experience from ‘Something To Look Forward To’ as 9.6 out of 10. Considering the above we believe we delivered a highly professional service which made a considerable impact across the often-overlooked areas of need within the cancer community.

Profile Raising

This year saw us raise the profile of the charity through national press coverage and winning awards. ‘Something To Look Forward To’ was featured in an article in the Times Newspaper regarding our work with accommodation owners which resulted in an influx of new accommodation owners across the UK donating time in their properties to our cancer community as well as one off financial donations.

We were also successful in winning both awards we were shortlisted for at the Federation of Small Business Awards in the East of England - The Best Family Business Award & Community Award 2023.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Something To Look Forward To is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 84 Coleridge Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB1 3PJ.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures, fittings & equipment

Straight line over 3 years

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Donations and gifts includes income from donated goods of £449,580 (2022: £540,492), which is measured at the fair value of the goods donated unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value.

Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
