TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2021
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the 1 March 2020 to 28 February 2021.
The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (issued in October 2019).
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The objectives of the charity are the advancement of health or the saving of lives in particular by the following:
-
Providing funding towards screening or collaborating with other charities or organisations to identify health issues - Providing or assisting in the provision of funding towards defibrillators primarily for grass roots sporting teams
-
Providing or assisting in providing training on CPR and the use of equipment, including defibrillators.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
During the year ended 28 February 2021 the Trustees continued to promote the charity and its activities through its social media platforms where possible. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and all organized events being cancelled, any physical promotion including the distribution of information material and merchandise was not possible.
There was a very short period of relaxation of the Covid-19 restrictions during the summer months which allowed a small window of opportunity to promote the charity and its activities at two socially distanced and shortened defibrillator donations and thereby raise awareness amongst officials, representatives and players and the families of grass roots sports clubs.
c. Main activities undertaken to further the charity's purposes for the public benefit
The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit whilst reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. Details of how the charity has clearly delivered public benefit are summarised in the activities for achieving objectives paragraph above and the review of activities on page 3.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2021
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic the charity was severely restricted in its activities with limited opportunities to fundraise and therefore raise awareness of sudden cardiac death in the young. With all sport on hold for a large part of the financial year, there was also limited opportunity to hand over defibrillators. That said, during the short Covid relaxation period during the summer, we safely donated two defibrillators at a total cost of £1,678.
Other normal activities such as the distribution of information flyers and posters, sale of clothing merchandise including the ‘Do it for Dan’ t-shirts was also seriously curtailed. The website and social media outlets were consistently under review and, where appropriate, heart and Covid related issues were reported along with charity promoting reports. There were also some small individual challenges which were promoted via our social media platforms which brought in a modest amount of fundraising.
The Covid-19 pandemic resulted in the cancellation of all the heart screenings that had been booked, 3 in 2020 and 3 in 2021. Heart screening sessions have now recommenced, albeit at a reduced level. The Trustees were eager to provide funding for as many sessions as possible and have secured 4 screenings for 2022 and 3 for 2023.
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Review of financial performance and position
Income for the period was £10,484 (2020: £29,888) and expenditure was £3,998 (2020: £28,825) which resulted in a surplus of £6,486 (2020: £1,063).
At 29 February 2021, total funds carried forward are £61,994 (2020: £55,508) which are all unrestricted.
c. Reserves policy
The amount of reserves held at the end of the period is £61,994. The Trustees felt that the reserves at this level are acceptable and consistent with the previous year. The charity retains the general reserve to provide sufficient resources to enable the charity to fund its future activities, and, as there is a requirement to book the heart screenings almost two years in advance, the policy is to have a sensible level of reserves to maintain committed expenditure in order for the charity to continue to achieve its objectives.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
The Daniel Wilkinson Foundation is a registered charity, number 1171728, and is constituted under a CIO Foundation.

Structure, governance and management (continued)
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co opted under the terms of the CIO Foundation.
c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies
The Board of Trustees hold meetings on a regular basis throughout the period to review the charity’s work, funds and services, and to ensure they are following the aims of the charity. The Trustees are also in regular electronic communication, ensuring they are up to date with current activities. Other than the day to day running of the charity, decisions are made on a majority basis. All five trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity other than travel expenses.
Plans for future periods
With the relaxation of restrictions relating to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Trustees have been planning and look forward to arranging further fundraising events and promoting awareness of sudden cardiac death in the young. The Trustees have already secured future heart screenings for 2022 and 2023. Since the February 2021 year-end, and as Covid-19 restrictions continue to relax, we have seen an increase in donations compared with the previous year. This has enabled the charity to donate an increased number of defibrillators to grass-roots sports and have confidence in booking the additional heart screening sessions.
Since the February 2021 year-end, and at the time or writing, we have been informed that our chosen fundraising platform is to cease in existence from the end of November 2021. The Trustees are vigorously engaging in looking for a replacement platform.
The Trustees feel the current financial year will see a positive effect on the charity both financially and with the promoting of awareness and donation of defibrillators.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2021
1. Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
1.2 Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The expected income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
1.3 Income
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
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.
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. Accounting policies (continued)
1.5 Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Sch. 6, para. 1 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charity for UK income tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Income Tax Act 2007, Part 10 s521 – s537 or s. 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
1.6 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.
1.7 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.8 Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.9 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.
2. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. There were no estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
