Achievements and Performance

SORP reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 In this period, we supported 202 children
from 105 different families. This support
mainly came in the way of funding
counselling and arranging memory making
days to theme parks, sporting events, trips to
the theatre and many other activities to help
provide some respite and normality to the
child whilst their family member is
undergoing treatment for a life affecting
illness.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period
Para 1.21 Despite a significant increase in the number
of families reaching out to us that we
subsequently supported, we have managed
to maintain a high level of fundraising so that
the Charity retains a healthy amount of funds
in the bank.
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held
Para 1.22 We hold reserves to ensure that we can
provide support to any new families that
reach out to us/are referred to us as well as
being able to guarantee we can continue to
support families we have been working with,
particularly when it comes to counselling that
can be spread over a longer period of time
than a one of memory making day.
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 173,343.00
Reasons for holding zero
reserves

families that we support and our fundraising
activities to ensure we can provide ongoing
support.
