HAYLEY’S HEROES

TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The trustees have pleasure in submitting their report together with the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Hayley’s Heroes is a small charity registered with the Charity Commission on 15 March 2016 as a Foundation Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered number 1166074. It is governed by its constitution.

The registered office is 61 London Road, Maidstone, Kent, ME16 8TX.

As a Foundation CIO, the trustees are the only voting members of the charity.

The maximum permitted number of trustees is six. New trustees are appointed by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the existing charity trustees. In selecting individuals for appointment as new trustees, the existing trustees are required to have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO. Other than the first trustees, appointment is for a term of three years.

TRUSTEES

The trustees who served the charity during the year were:

Jodie Martin Zoe Bridges Julie Town Emma Stafford Charlotte Green

All trustees were appointed on 15 March 2016.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The objects of the charity are the relief and assistance for persons of all ages, but particularly young adults suffering from ill health as a result of cancer. Beneficiaries will be from England and Wales, but particularly across Kent, and include those suffering with cancer, their families and their carers. Relief is provided principally, but not exclusively, through emotional and financial support, educational and morale boosting activities. Beneficiaries are currently referred by mainstream medical agencies.

TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 continued

The charity continues to work hard to raise its profile through social media, fundraising in local stores as part of local store charity commitments and attending events, when able, to talk about our mission and the purpose we serve in the local community.

In the last year, due to Government restrictions, we were only able to help 10 families. The Covid pandemic has made it difficult for medical agencies to make referrals and for the charity to provide access to the benefits it would normally offer. The trustees actively considered other ways to deliver benefits in the Covid environment through 2022. It is hoped 2023 will see a return to the pre-pandemic level of events and activities offered by the charity.

The charity actively continues raising its profile aiming to be nominated as the chosen charity for various fundraising events to boost our funds.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The year to 31 March 2022 is the sixth year that the charity has been in operation. Fundraising has been severely restricted due to the pandemic and consequently expenditure has exceeded income this year. However, donors have been generous in previous years and unrestricted reserves of £108,953 were carried forward at the end of the year. The trustees are satisfied that the charity is on a sound footing and will be able to continue operating for the foreseeable future.

RISKS AFFECTING THE CHARITY

The Covid 19 pandemic has had a major impact on the activities of the charity at the present time. Many of the activities provided have not been possible. As restrictions ease some activities may become available where social distancing and family bubbles allow. The charity is also conscious of its dependence on medical agencies to provide referrals to enable the charity to attain its objectives. Covid 19 has impacted on the ability of agencies to refer families. The level of current reserves mean that the charity is well placed to be able wait until it is able to offer its services again.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

The trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by The Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties.

The trustees would like to thank all the donors and referrers for their support during the year.
