## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 30 April 2022
## **The charity's main activities**
The charity continues to provide Medical Gaming Carts to sick children, young people and adults in hospitals throughout the United Kingdom, Gaming is increasingly being realised both in research and in practice as a valuable resource for providing psychological and social support to patients with medical conditions. The RockinR has witnessed first-hand the positive impact gaming can have on the emotional wellbeing of children and young people. Feedback from staff, clinicians, parents, and patients themselves, demonstrate the overwhelmingly positive impact the Gaming Carts have had. Clinicians have expressed how Gaming Carts allow young people access to activities that remove them from the constraints and anxieties that often surround the hospital environment.
## **Public benefit statement**
The activities set out in this report have been undertaken to further the charity's charitable purpose for the public benefit. The Trustees have complied with the duty under section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance by the Charity Commission and the trustees have paid due regard to this guidance in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
## **Achievements and performance**
In the period from 1 May 2021 to 30 April 2022 The RockinR installed over 100 Medical Gaming Carts into various hospitals throughout the United Kingdom. We aim to keep technology relevant and up to date, creating an enjoyable patient user experience for many years to come.
## **Financial review**
The net income for the year was £37,154.
The trustees have reassessed the charity’s ability to continue for at least 12 months from the date that the accounts are approved and conclude that no material uncertainties exist that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
## **Reserves policy**
The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £79,686.
The charity continues to assess the level of reserves that are required to enable the smooth running of the charity and to enable an orderly winding up of the charity if it had to close. A reserve level has been set by the trustees between £30,000 and £70,000, this will be continuously reviewed and assessed as the charity grows.
With over 300 Gaming Carts throughout the UK, reserves and funds support and sustain previously installed Gaming Carts. Theft, loss and accidental breakages are common occurrences within the medical environment. TheRockinR aims to keep technology relevant and up to date, creating an enjoyable patient user experience for many years to come.
We can also be owed substantial funds from the NHS and other charities. A healthy reserves policy enables TheRockinR to continue its charitable objectives while waiting for payments.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of TheRockinR
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the year ended 30 April 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the CIO's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Charities Act; 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- 3 the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.
