Report of the Trustees and Financial Statements for Spotlight YOPD (Registered Charity number 1165177)
1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023
Chair's Report
This last year has been brilliant and surpassed all my expectations. My thanks go out to the Trustees and all our Partners and supporters, and particularly those that went the extra mile in terms of enthusiasm and focus on results. I call out a few of the exceptional groups and people below.
Our CEO and Founder, Gaynor Edwards has spent the last 10 years building the Charity and raising awareness of Young Onset Parkinsons. In that time, we have seen YOPD recognised as a separate rare condition by NICE, improved the knowledge of YOPD globally and identified genetic traits most commonly found in those with YOPD.
You can read her story on our website at www.spotlightyopd.org. Gaynor still has ambitions, so she let it be known that she would like to resign from the CEO role. She agreed to stay on as CEO until we found a suitable successor and has kindly accepted a role as Patron, so we will continue to have access to her insight and amusing anecdotes.
Planning for World Parkinson's Congress (WPC) in July 2023 started in earnest in July 2022. We knew we had an uphill battle, both persuading the WPC organising committee that we should have a special place and/or stand for YOPD and also in creating enough funding for enough people to attend the event.
This is a special event and the only one of its kind that allows us to talk with researchers, Neurologists, and other medical professionals to raise the profile of YOPD and the different challenges that a diagnosis at a younger age brings. We also believe there is an untapped opportunity for longitudinal studies of many years if younger patients can be enrolled into research programmes.
As part of our key purpose and aims and building on the work on our Communications Plan last year, we spent the best part of the year designing and creating an awareness campaign. This campaign, led by a team at OpenHealth, built up to the World Parkinson's Congress in Barcelona in July 2023. The campaign was a huge success. We raised our profile, got many more supporters in the UK, and spread the word across all social media platforms about Young Onset Parkinsons. There is more detail in the Operations Report.
Virgin Media gave notice to close their/our online donations platform, which was our main tool to collect online donations. After a lengthy review, we settled on Total Giving which would appear to give the best return to the Charity for donations made. There are costs associated and these are predominantly due to the “Stripe“ platform, which is used to accept the credit card payments with all the necessary banking requirements.
The change has not been without its problems, both in terms of initial setup and then latterly in the acceptance of large value donations (over £150), the last of which is attributed to new government legislation related to the need to validate large donors.
As a result of a review there were some adjustments to our Governance to keep us up to date and compliant, these actions are outlined in the relevant section below.”
As a Board we are poised to take the Charity to the next level in its development and are excited to have begun the process of recruiting our next CEO.

Introduction
The Trustees present their report with the financial statements of the Charity for the period 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023.
Spotlight YOPD is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) that is eligible for gift aid.
Objectives
The objects of the CIO are:
-
1) To promote health and to relieve those suffering from Young Onset Parkinson's Disease (YOPD) and to provide support both for such persons and their families.
-
2) To advance the education of the public (including scientific education) and raise awareness in all areas relating to Young Onset Parkinson's Disease.
Vision :
Shining a light on better living now with young onset Parkinson’s (YOPD) and researching for a brighter future
Aims :
-
Ensure YOPD is recognised globally as a rare (often genetic) syndrome that requires focussed research.
-
Mobilise genetic testing ensuring YOPD patients have an effective diagnosis leading to better care.
-
Deliver campaigns so YOPD families have access to research, innovative treatments, and other emotional, practical, and financial support.
-
Have YOPD recognised in guidelines enabling holistic disease management at every stage of life.
-
Accelerate diagnosis and empower patients and families to take control of the condition.
The Trustees had due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, ensuring that the Aims and Strategy are aligned with the objectives, reviewed at Board meetings. The risk register also helps to focus the attention of the Board of Trustees
Achievements and Performance
This last year we had the luxury of having a few focused projects in addition to the CEO continuing to consult with and work with other Parkinson's charities and our partners.
Awareness Campaign
Discussions started in July 2022 between OpenHealth and SpotlightYOPD about the possibilities of a campaign to raise awareness of Young Onset Parkinsons. OpenHealth accepted a brief from SpotlightYOPD and started to create ideas and a team.
In September, the Board of Trustees were given a comprehensive presentation and then participated in a discussion with OpenHealth, OmniCom and Braincell on the social media campaign and branding refresh.
Braincell undertook market research on our brand and had the results of market research on the brand and on the various campaign options.
All the plans were aimed at:
-
Raising awareness of YOPD
-
Raising the profile of Spotlight YOPD
The campaigns presented and approved included:
-
Glitch Campaign – A video storyboard aimed at making people realise that Parkinson’s does affect people who are young and in the prime of life. This was delivered broadly across all social media platforms.
-
Hero Campaign – A poster campaign with real people diagnosed with YOPD. This was available to put up on both electronic billboards and print out for events such as WPC.
-
Rare Revolution magazine – Have an article placed in an issue of Rare Revolution Magazine. In the end we were offered, and accepted two articles in Rare Revolution Magazine and they also allowed us to take over their social media channels for a day to get our message out to their network.
The various campaigns kicked off at the end of March 2022, just ahead of Parkinson’s Awareness Day and the whole of April we kept up the communications for maximum effect.
Not only did we raise our profile in the UK, but we also had a lot of interest globally for our work.
Fundraising
Fundraising was an ever-present item on the agenda throughout the year in order to be able to fund our ambitions at the WPC 2023. With this in mind, we undertook actions such as:
-
Push for everyone to both use and advertise Amazon Smile which could generate small amounts consistently.
-
Undertook a social media push on AbleLable – who provide designer clothing for people who find it difficult to dress in normal clothes. AbleLable provide SpotlightYOPD with a small commission for any business that comes through our website or social media platforms.
-
All Trustees undertook some sort of fundraising activity.
-
The Board approved agreements for volunteers, policies and procedure and training programmes to enable the recruitment of a team of volunteers from outside the organisation to help with fundraising.
In addition, we had a number of people who undertook events, like cycling, running, and birthday fundraisers that made a difference to our funds. It was an excellent start, and we now have a platform from which to grow in 2023.
Alliances and Partners
The CEO was active in a number of alliance and partner organisations. In addition to the regular calls that the CEO undertakes with Parkinsons UK and Cure Parkinsons, there were interesting additional events this year, which included:
-
Neurological Alliance – a member of the rare conditions sub-group.
-
Gaynor attended the inaugural PD Avengers event on Health, Diversity, and Inclusion of YOPD globally. For example: access to meds in Africa.
-
Gaynor works with the Davis Phinney Foundation (as a member of an expert panel) on embracing diversity and equity for women with Parkinson’s.
-
A meeting on Dystonia and Genomics courtesy of Cure Parkinsons.
-
A Cure Parkinson's research meeting.
-
Participated in an expert panel for Cure Parkinsons on a symptom discussion, in particular constipation.
External Events
The CEO is selective about the events that we pick up, however we do believe that it is important to support other Parkinson's Charities and pick up specific events that can spread the word about YOPD. To this end a sample of the external events include:
-
Arranging the ‘Dance A Thon’ for the SportParkinson’s Triathlon.
-
Meeting at PUK on press possibilities, Jeremy Paxman show and “Suspect“ TV series that portrays someone working with Young Onset Parkinsons.
-
Attended a Nurses conference.
-
A meeting with PD aware developers to create an app to track PD. Fee donated to Spotlight YOPD.
-
Attended an event to plan out a series of podcasts. Jeremy Paxman and Rory CellanJones were driving the idea and Gaynor participated in a podcast specifically discussing YOPD.

Future Plans
We have ambitious plans for 2023 to 2024. It started with the recruitment of a new CEO, who we are happy to report has been announced as Carl Beech. Carl joined the Charity in September 2023.
As planned, Spotlight YOPD had a large contingent at the World Parkinsons Congress in Barcelona and the profile and actions from that event are key for the Objectives remaining in the Year
We plan to build upon the Social Media campaign started during the 2022-2023 year.
Two new Trustees have joined the Board and bring specialist expertise and contacts that will help us in the getting our messages out across research and healthcare professionals.
Manchester University research into a sebum test to identify Parkinson’s and other conditions. This would appear to be a game-changer in diagnosis of YOPD so we will be keeping close to these developments.
Risk
Managing our risks continues to be a very important aspect of our work as a Charity. Being aware of those areas that may adversely impact on our vision, mission, aims, and objectives is not just good governance and good leadership and management, it also allows us to act and proactively mitigate and improve in our work.
The Charity’s risk register has been in place since 2020. Risks are discussed regularly at Board. The management of risk continues to be a dynamic process. New risks are discussed and added, and existing risks are reviewed with their actions monitored.
During 2022 to 2023 we have introduced a number of new risks that have emerged. We also provided risk management training for every Trustee, and this is now embedded in the induction and onboarding process of new Trustees. In addition, risk management training is being developed for volunteers.
Our top two risks are Finance and Chair and Succession planning.
Finance
This risk score has increased over the year and is described as a risk that the Charity’s finances may deplete resulting in a lack of money to undertake our charitable aims. Its risk score is 12 meaning its likelihood to occur is possible and the impact is deemed as moderate. Mitigation actions are in place with monthly reporting to the Board, and robust financial controls are in place.
Chair, Senior and Specialist Roles
This is a new risk that emerged during the year. It scores 12 with the likelihood as possible and the impact significant. In order to mitigate this risk, we developed job descriptions for each of the key roles. We have plans for Trustees, following training, to assume the roles until recruitment should key posts become vacant.
Impact of the Charity
A key area of work the Charity has undertaken throughout the year was around communication and its influence on the impact of the Charity. This is a risk that has been present on the risk register since development of the register. During 2022 and 2023, as described earlier, a successful social media campaign was launched which resulted in an increase in awareness of the rare disease YOPD, as well as the Charity.
This is an example of practical action to manage identified risks to the Charity, in this case the risk that Spotlight YOPD will lack impact as a Charity.
Summary
Over the year we have continually monitored our risks. We have regularly reviewed all risks and discussed them in detail. Actions are in place to mitigate identified risks. Our risk management continues to mature, which has enhanced our understanding and improved our ability to identify and manage the risks we face.
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing document
The Charity is controlled by its governing document, a constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, dated 15 January 2016.
As a result of the Charities Act 2022, SpotlightYOPD Trustees undertook training. The Board had a presentation on the changes as a result of the Charities Act 2022 and followed that up with a Board discussion about how we review the way we work.
In fact, as a result of a review of all our procedures we determined we were compliant in all areas, with a review of the constitution as an action to take forwards and ensure it is fit for purpose. The SpotlightYOPD constitution was approved in its current form as fit for purpose. The Board received an update from Handlesbanken on banking security and the controls that need to be in place was provided to the Board. A brief discussion resulted in additional controls being agreed and subsequently implemented.
The Board of Trustees uses the knowledge and experience of medical professionals when we are asked to support research programmes or put additional medical information on our website. To this end we have an Advisory Board. During the year we reviewed and amended the Advisory Board Terms of reference to broaden the remit.
All Trustees and the CEO had a refresh of Safeguarding training, with the information having been updated as a result of Safeguarding legal clarifications over the past year.
A small group of senior Trustees helped the Chair with succession planning. This year we created and agreed the role descriptions for the Chair and CEO.
Submitted Trustees Annual report. With this Annual report we now have three sets of accounts with independent review.
The risks register was used extensively this year to help manage the risks and opportunities associated with the communications campaign and the social media campaign in particular.
Recruitment and appointment of new Trustees
No new Trustees were recruited.
The Chair (Nicola Cole) and one Trustee (Gavin Jones) were reappointed for a second term of three years in November 2022. The decision to reappoint was made on the basis of the positive impact both had made during their first terms and a need to provide both continuity and the right skills mix.
Financial Review & Reserves Policy
The Trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 2015) and also in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Income was slightly down on the prior year however expenses fell as well. As a result the reserves and bank account ended the year, as planned, in a healthy state ahead of the expenditure on the World Parkinson’s Congress (WPC). Due to some very generous grants by other organisations to our volunteers and parsimonious behaviour we have been able to set aside funds to redevelop our website.
Reserves
Unrestricted reserves ended the year at £5752. After deducting designated expenditure for WPC £1600 and redeveloping the Website £2000 this leaves £2152 which is approximately 11 months’ normal expenditure (calculated by averaging the last two years costs).
The Trustees do not consider this excessive.
