TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024

1.4 Achievements and performance

Introduction

Shine A Light is in our seventh year of running and we have seen a lot of positive changes in this financial year. We have secured great premises, have had amazing support from both grant funders, local companies and community groups and individuals who have funded our activities, volunteered and donated items and time to help us.

Following some amazing training from one of our current grant funders, The Fore, we have produced our first impact report, which we hope will make interesting and informative reading.

Move of Premises

Following our decision to move premises in 2023 we hit some bumps in the road. The initial premises we took were unsuitable and we had a six-month period of securing and outfitting a better accommodation for the charity.

We have secured a premises within the main ground floor shopping centre in Rugby town centre. We have outfitted the premises to include a front shop and community café, with a children’s play area. A hub, to be used for youth activities and crafting groups, offices, a meeting room and two therapy rooms.

Service Provison

During this year we have conducted the following service provision:

Individual Family Support . As this financial year draws to a close, we are currently supporting a total of 58 families. Support offered to families this year has included: counselling and play therapy, day trips, drop-in and activity sessions, teen group sessions, home and hospital visits and Shiny Hampers. As in previous years, we have a large focus on encouraging peer to peer support throughout as many of our activities as possible. We have completed telephone and written surveys with families to assess the impact of our support and identify other areas we can consider providing support in the future.

Shiny Hampers have been sent out on a quarterly basis this financial year, one for each season. Each season’s hamper is themed and contains activity materials, crafts and treats appropriate for the age group of each family. With the hit of the cost of living we have also included some items such as blankets, drinks and food which might help families during half term and summer holidays to have a treat. Continuing to deliver the hampers to families doorsteps, enables us to check in with families, especially those who have not recently engaged in other activities and to remind families of other support we can provide them. Families continue to highly value this support and engage in the accompanying activities.

Family Welcome Hampers are taken out to a family as part of our first visit with them, which is usually at home but occasionally an in-hospital visit. This year we have delivered ten welcome hampers to families.

Each pack is individually made up according to the dynamics of each family and include age-appropriate board games and activities families can enjoy at home or in hospital, a throw which can be used to snuggle up in bed or on a sofa, popcorn makers, treats and sweets, DVD’s, takeaway vouchers, toys, and craft activities. All items in the pack are aimed at encouraging family time and creating memories whenever the family can be together.

Counselling - our adult counselling service has continued to run as a hybrid service with service users given a choice of face to face, online or telephone appointments. For the majority of this financial year, we have hired rooms at the Hill St Youth and Community Centre to deliver the face to face sessions of the counselling service, but we have been able to start delivering sessions from our centre from September this year.

Groups and activities this year have included our annual trip to Weston Supermare, alongside lots of local meet

ups and get-togethers for our families. We worked with a local therapy provider to run a workshop called Animix amongst other activities we organised during school holidays for all age groups which enabled families / young people to meet with others.

Other service provision We have continued to be an official referral partner for Coventry Foodbank and have seen an increase in the need for their foodbank vouchers and for social supermarkets across Coventry and Warwickshire. We have worked in partnership with several other charities to help overcome financial need for some of our families as well.

Our Christmas party this year happened at our centre in Rugby. The families who attended had a fantastic afternoon filled with games, activities, a disco and visits to Santa throughout. As always, our families reflected that it was a great time to catch up with other families and we saw the start of several new friendships with some of the young people who attended and were introduced. Having the party at the centre also gave us the opportunity to showcase the centre to lots of the families who had not already visited.

Christmas Gifts and other donations received this year were wonderful once again, we are ever humbled by the generosity of the general public and local companies. Christmas presents for our children and young people were provided this year by the customers and staff of Dunelm Coventry Store, The Works Rugby Store and individual donations. These presents were distributed to 108 young people and children, each family were also provided with a Christmas gift hamper made up of donations of bottles of juice, biscuits and other Christmas treats to ensure that all families had the little luxuries they deserved at Christmas time.

Our volunteer team and trustee board are vital to the very essence of Shine A Light. They are central to everything that we do and every family we support. During this year we have spent six months without an office and permanent place to work from, often having to hot desk and rent space to run activities and counselling sessions. Our existing volunteer board and our trustees carried on working steadfastly through this time and since securing our new premises we have started to recruit some wonderful new team to take our new centre to the next level. We have also had the opportunity of working with young volunteers who are completing work experience and Duke of Edinburgh opportunities.

Staffing levels have stayed the same with our CEO employed on a part-time basis with a grant secured from The Fore Trust, a role which has been entirely voluntary until this funding was secured.

1.5 Funding

Grant funding has increased again this year. With major funding received from: Aviva Charities Trust, Jaguar Land Rover, The Fore, Heart of England.

Community funding has also increased again, and we have had the pleasure of working with both new companies and some old friends too.

1.6 Financial review

During the year to 29[th] February 2024, the charity’s total income was £143,475. At the year end, the level of reserves available for the charity’s use (i.e. unrestricted funds and not represented by fixed assets) was £30,928. Total operating charitable expenditure was £134,698 giving an operating surplus in the year of £8,777.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024

1.7 Investment & Reserves policy

The charity aims to maintain total reserves at a level equivalent to at least six months operating costs based on current annual expenditure. The reserves currently held as of the 29 February 2024 were £30,928.

1.8 Future Development

Shine A Light continues to grow and explore various ways of increasing its scope of services. With our new centre now up and running, we have plans to improve the facilities on offer and

  1. Create an income stream from running a shop and a community café within the premises

  2. Create a second therapy room to enable us to provide therapy for more than one client at once

  3. Create a hub for gaming and crafts which our teen group can use for all of their activities

  4. Generate more ways we can use the centre to support the local community

The charity is exploring further measures to grow in membership and continue to develop its members to make life- changing impact in society. We continue to work with Coventry and Warwickshire councils, national and local charities, other agencies and NHS departments, to develop further long-term plans to ensure our growth and sustainability in all areas.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024

Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Shine a Light Childhood Cancer Support ('the Charity')

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 29 February 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Trustees of the Charity (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024

1. Accounting policies

1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Shine a Light Childhood Cancer Support meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the accounts, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.

1.3 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met.

1.4 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 allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

1.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024

1. Accounting policies (continued)

1.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation (continued)

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Computer equipment

25% Straight-Line

1.6 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

2. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgments estimates, and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
