## **1. Executive Summary** 

The charity has made a significant impact in the community by providing free food parcels on a weekly basis. These food parcels are distributed to three distinct groups: individuals affected by cancer, their dedicated caregivers, and the broader community. The charity operates out of two key centres, Harpurhey Children's Centre and Transformation Community Resource Centre in Manchester. 

This initiative not only addresses the immediate needs of those battling cancer and their caregivers but also extends its reach to the general community, offering vital support to individuals who may be facing food insecurity or financial hardship. By providing regular access to nutritious food, the charity has played a crucial role in improving the overall well-being and quality of life for its beneficiaries, while fostering a sense of community and solidarity among residents. We have also a introduced a third midweek session to the Moston community and a standalone foodbank in Harpurhey on Saturdays. 

## **2. Our Impact** 

Cancer Care Diaspora, a charitable organisation, has made significant strides in raising awareness and support for cancer-related issues within the general community. Their achievements include: 

**Awareness and Education:** The charity has successfully educated the community about cancer, its causes, early detection, prevention, and the importance of regular screenings. This knowledge empowers individuals to take proactive steps towards cancer prevention and early intervention. 

**Weekly Food Support:** Cancer Care Diaspora provides vital support to individuals living with cancer and their caregivers through weekly free food parcels. This practical assistance helps alleviate the financial burden and nutritional challenges often faced by these individuals. 

**Community Engagement:** The charity operates from two centres, Harpurhey Children's Centre and Transformation Community Resource Centre Longsight, where we engage the community actively. We hand out food parcels at these centres, deliver to those home bound thereby fostering a sense of community and support among those affected by cancer. 

**Holistic Support:** In addition to food support, Cancer Care Diaspora conducts relaxation exercises and support group sessions at both centres. These activities promote mental and emotional well-being among cancer patients and their caregivers, creating a holistic support system. 

Overall, Cancer Care Diaspora has made a substantial impact by not only providing practical assistance but also creating a supportive and informed community that is better equipped to address the challenges posed by cancer.

## **3. Transparency and Accountability** 

The governing body of the charity is comprise of three Trustees: Dr Amara Ajaegbu, Christabel Abraham, and Chairperson Abigail Abara. These Trustees play a crucial role in the organization, as they are responsible for making key decisions, ensuring the proper management of funds, and overseeing the allocation of the charity's resources. The charity appointed Laura Urhobo as Chief Executive Officer in January 2024 to oversee the day to day running of the charity and report back to the board of trustees during regular board meetings. The role of the Board of Trustees include: 

**Decision-Making:** The trustees, led by Abigail Abara, are responsible for making important decisions regarding the charity's operations, programs, and initiatives. They collectively determine the strategic direction and policies of the organisation.

**Compliance and Governance:** The trustees ensure that the charity operates in compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements. They also uphold high standards of governance and ethical conduct within the organisation. 

## **4. Diversity and Inclusion**

Inclusion and diversity policies are essential in ensuring that all individuals, regardless of their race, ethnicity, or background, have equal access to the charity's services and resources. 

By actively promoting inclusion and diversity, the charity: 

**Ensures Equal Access:** It creates an environment where people from all racial and ethnic backgrounds feel welcome and have equal access to the charity's services, including food support and other resources.

Overall, the charity's commitment to inclusion and diversity not only aligns with ethical and legal standards but also enhances its ability to effectively serve a diverse group of beneficiaries, ultimately strengthening its impact in the community. 

## **5. Looking Ahead** 

Cancer Care Diaspora's expansion plans and its commitment to reaching diverse communities are commendable. Here's an overview of our goals and needs: 

## **5.1 Expansion Plans** 

Cancer Care Diaspora aims to expand its reach throughout the United Kingdom over the next five years. This expansion will allow the charity to provide essential support and services to a broader audience of individuals and communities affected by cancer. 

## **5.2 Funding and Support** 

To achieve its expansion goals, the charity is actively seeking more funders who are willing to support our mission. Increasing donations and financial support will enable us to expand operations, reach more community members, and enhance the impact of our programs. 

## **5.3 Youth Eat and Play Project** 

Cancer Care Diaspora has recently initiated the Youth Eat and Play Project, which is a promising endeavour aimed at addressing the unique needs of young individuals or children who have a parent or guardian affected by cancer. To effectively run and sustain this project, additional resources, including funding and support are needed. 

By garnering more financial support and engaging with new funders especially Local Authority and BBC Children in Need, Cancer Care Diaspora can work towards expanding its footprint and making a meaningful difference in the lives of cancer patients, caregivers, the youth and the community at large. This growth will enable us to provide vital services and support to a more extensive and diverse group of beneficiaries throughout the United Kingdom.

Each service user feedback journey demonstrates the benefits of collaboration and partnership with other stakeholders so that our service users can be signposted to other services. The testimonial and case study below indicate the gratitude that service users have shown and is reflective of the feedback we have received during year 3. Service users are keen to continue the collaboration with other agencies and are benefitting from a holistic service of support services they are empowered to use.

## **Case Study – Elizabeth*** 

Elizabeth and her family accessed various projects delivered by CCD and share the impact of the provisions on her and her family between January to August 2024. She started volunteering and now feel very much a part of the CCD family. 

I have witnessed firsthand the profound impact that CCD has had on the lives of individuals and families affected by cancer over the past year. This report reflects my experiences and observations from January to August 2024, showcasing the various ways our community has come together to provide support. 

**Support Group Meetings** - One of the most transformative aspects of our work has been the support group meetings. These gatherings have created a nurturing environment where individuals can share their personal journeys, fears, and triumphs. Participants often leave feeling uplifted and empowered, knowing that they are not alone in their fight. The connections formed here have fostered a strong sense of community, reminding everyone that they have a network of support. 

**Exercise Sessions** - These exercise sessions have been another highlight. Encouraging physical activity has proven to be essential for both physical and mental well-being. It has been inspiring to see participants engage in these sessions, often reporting increased energy and improved mood. Expressing this in a line; “these sessions have helped me regain my strength and confidence.” 

**Home Visits** – These visits have allowed us to reach individuals who may not be able to attend group sessions. These visits are often filled with heartfelt conversations, providing emotional support and practical assistance tailored to each 

8 



family's needs. I recall visiting a family who expressed how our support helped them feel less isolated during a challenging time. Moments like these reinforce the importance of our work. 

**Family and Individual Support** - Our commitment to providing personalized family and individual support has made a tangible difference. We have been able to address specific needs, whether it be counselling, resource referrals, or simply a listening ear. This tailored approach has allowed families to navigate their challenges with greater ease. 

**Foodbank and Cost of Living Support** - The foodbank initiative, especially with a focus on African foodstuffs, has been a lifeline for many families facing food insecurity. Knowing they can access culturally appropriate food has been crucial for their well-being. Recipients have shared their gratitude, highlighting how this support has alleviated some of their financial burdens. 

**Financial Support** - Financial assistance has also played a vital role in alleviating the stress associated with medical expenses. By providing this support, we have enabled families to prioritize their health without the added worry of financial strain. It is rewarding to see the relief on their faces when they receive help. 

**Holiday Club for Children** - The holiday club for children has been a delightful addition to our community offerings. By engaging children in fun and educational activities, we have provided them with a sense of normalcy and joy. Parents have reported that their children returned home with smiles and new friendships, which is heartwarming to witness. 

**Research Participation** - Encouraging community involvement in research has been crucial for enhancing cancer care. Participants have expressed their willingness to contribute to studies, understanding that their experiences can help shape future treatments and support systems. 

**Community Event with Doctors** - Our community event featuring two doctors discussing cancer signs and symptoms was a significant success. The doctors provided invaluable information, empowering attendees to recognize early warning signs and fostering a proactive approach to health. The positive feedback from participants emphasized the importance of such educational initiatives. 

## **Overall project impact** 

Cancer Care Diaspora is an organisation that promotes the health of the public through provision of information and raising of awareness on the causes, diagnosis, prevention and cure of all forms of cancer and we provide practical support to children, young people and adults affected by cancer including their carers. We are passionate about providing healthy meals for the community which is why we run a Food bank that supplies food items every Tuesday at Longsight, Wednesday at Moston and Friday at Harpurhey. 

In August 2024, Cancer care Diaspora collaborated with organisations such as Cancer Research UK, NHS Greater Manchester Cancer Alliance, Greater Manchester Integrated Care Partnership on Topic: Cancer Signs & Symptoms 

9 



Community Awareness and Themes – Spotting Cancer signs and Symptoms Early at North City Family & Fitness Centre in Harpurhey. We had several well-equipped speakers talk extensively on the Topic. Speakers include Dr Barbara Ogendegbe GP from Manchester and Dr Omotola Omotoso also a GP from Manchester.  The event was hosted by our CEO Laura Urhobo and major focus was on everything community members need to know to detect cancer early. 

On 22nd November 2024, we hosted a Lung Cancer Awareness session with Lung Cancer nurses Lauren Carrol & Abigail Afolabi from MFT NHS North Manchester General Hospital & Macmillan Cancer Support, they  lectured our  group in Harpurhey about the signs and symptoms of Lung Cancer and what screening services are available on the NHS. 

We wrapped up the year with our end of year Health Awareness event which was held on a Saturday 21[st] December 2024 at Manchester Communication Academy Harpurhey with Dr Edmond Edi-Osagie (Consultant Gynaecologist Alexandra Hospital Cheadle), Specialist Nurse Tolani Balogun- Akinjide (Pelvic Floor Practitioner Manchester Royal Infirmary) and Dr, Omotola Omotoso GP & GP Trainer Village Surgery, West Timperley) all experts in their field. We received funding from NHS Greater Manchester Cancer Alliance and Partnered with Manchester Integrated Care Partnership and Macc (Manchester Local voluntary & community sector support Organisation). 

During Easter, our holiday food programme HAF was a significant event for our organisation, we had in attendance over 45 children and young people from diverse backgrounds from 5yrs-16yrs including Special Education Needs children (SEND). Our staff and volunteers who are well trained implemented appropriate safeguarding measures and supervision during the event, we have colleagues who are equipped with the knowledge and skills to engage, and support SEND children. Our young people were excited to participate in the Art and Crafts session delivered by one of our partners Afrocats, Sports and Physical activities like hockey and football delivered by trained coaches, indoor games and book club with lots of exciting books donated by Read Mcr and Manchester Libraries. 

The Holiday Activity Fund has helped reduce the likelihood of children experiencing social isolation because children from all ethnicities and backgrounds had access to nutritious meals, fruits and vegetables and lots of fun activities at no cost. We were able to keep the young people engaged and entertained, encouraging positive interactions which promoted a sense of belonging and responsibility thereby reducing antisocial behaviour amongst our teenagers. 

Parents and Carers were excited about the sessions especially as the timing was fixed at 9.30am-3pm which took off the stress of them worrying about breakfast for their children since we had a breakfast club and parents and carers were able to go about their normal dailky activities  or work after drop off. The children of some of our service users who are undergoing cancer treatment were able to participate in the activities giving their parent’s time to recuperate.

The Charity also hosted an exciting litter picking community project in May 2025 for 10-16year olds encouraging the young people to embrace a good culture in keeping their environment clean and tidy, up to 10bags of rubbish and litter were gathered by our team. 

Harpuhey Parade is a yearly free family funfair aimed at families to come and unwind and have fun with free food, drinks, ice cream and free fun activities such as climbing tree, bouncy bungee, face painting, magician, circus skills and a whole lot of fun activities. We had a stand to reach out and interact with people and discuss early detection of cancer, prevention and other useful infomation we shared. We ended the financial year on a high note and are very proud of the positive impact we are making in our community.

## Impact data refreshes every day 

On behalf of  our Trustees, we would also like to say a big thank you to all our funders and donors this financial year including Mr Michael Osemede who donated £500 to support our community work, Costco Manchester Trafford and Oldham stores who both sent us cheques to support our community foodbank, Neighbourly for the great partnership we have formed this financial year and through this partnership we not only receive supermarket surplus donations every day from their partner stores but they also facilitated a grant of £4,500 from Sainsbury’s Good food for All fund for us in March 2025. Our biggest funder still remains the National Lottery Community Fund (Reaching Communities Grant) who have been very kind in supporting our organisation’s core cost and development this financial year.

## **Independent Examiner's Report** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Cancer Care Diaspora for the year ended 30 June 2025** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Cancer Care Diaspora (“the Trust”) for the year ended 30 June 2025. 

As  the  charity's  trustees,  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 Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the  2011  Act  and  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. 

The  charity’s  gross  income  exceeded  £25,000  and  I  am  qualified  to  undertake  the examination by being a qualified member of Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

1. the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

2. the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

3. the accounts did 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.
