constantly learning new skills in a bid lo excel our charlty further. We
conlinuè to attend workshops and tralnlng Courses to enable us io buikl
our kno￿edge 8nd confKJence working within the ch8rity sector.
Workshops include bid writing, trust and corporate fundraising as well as
capital campaigns, prqecl management and ch8ri1y fin8nce. These aid us
greatly in ensuring we are following correct guidance and protocols
expected of us.
We remain membei ch8rrties wlth Brain Tumour Research and look lo
them also for 5UPPOrt and guidance. We have regular correspondence
with them and continue to attend annual member party workshops which
we find to be a great opportunity to network and leam from other charities
that have succeeded in Iheir goals and objectives. We have met many
wonderful and inspiring people through these workshops and we get the
opportunity to tell our own story and further our support nelwork by
altetyling these.
Newly appointed Iruslees and volunteers will need criminal record checks.
We continue our registration with the Fundraising regulator to ensure all
our charity fundraising adheres to Ihe policies and guidelines sel, to
maintain gcx)d ethical fijndraising.
We have accepted the Charity Govemance Cc*Je and are working towards
its principles. We have tsken the deasion not to adopt the suggestion that
trustees should not serve for more than 9 years as we see il is
counterproductive to our purposes. Our charty goals remain clear and we

ectives and activities

M8r¢* 2012

Our main objeclives Indude providing support and services for children
and their families diagnosed with cancer and Ltndergoing trealment in
Nottingham's Queens Medical Centre as well as supporting families of
bereaved children within Nottingham.
We r8ise awareness and advan￿ education for childhood cancers,
speufically brain tumouts which is the disease that took our Joria-Rose.
Summary ofthe objects of the
charity set out in Its
governing document
We have C#￿tinUed lo deltver our toiletry packs across many of the
childrens wards at QMC. We now provide packs across all childrens
wards as well as Billies house which houses families that musl travel to
Nottingham Hospital for treatment for their child. We have a cupboard on
ward E39 vthich is the children's oncology ward which holds our toiletry
pack stock which we replenlsh frequently Ihroughoul the year. We liaise
with staff and parenls lo ensure tt)e supplies we offer are useful and are
often adding extra items upon request to ensure we are provKling what is
aclualty needed for our families.
PASICS have continued to be our link wth famllies as they spend much
more lime on the wards and have direct contact with patients and their
families. I feel they have great insight to the needs within the hospital. We
greatly appreciaie their help for this as it can be mentally challenging at
times on the wards for me personally.
We were Ihrllled to offer our family's and worklng staff a Christmas dlnner
on Chnstrnas day. Each year our numbers grow higher and this year we
were pleased to be able to provide 145 dinners across 5 childrens wards
on christmas day. We have provided these for a number of years now
and slaff and p8rents are well accustomed to our annual visit whlch has
made our numbers grow futher each year. We are proud to be able to
provide these along with extra treats gifts for famllies unable lo enjoy
Christmas al home
Summary of the maln
activlties undertaken for the
public benefit In relatlon to
these objects (include vAthln
th1$ section the statutory
declaration that trustees hav•
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commlssion on publlc
benefit)
We have o)ntlnued to spread awareness and galn support for our
Campaign whlch is exlremely important lo us all. We are still working lo
gain support lo our petition which will be sent lo parliament in hopes to
educate doclors further In spotting Papllledema (swelling of the optlc
nerve) as we believe Ihls is vital In aiding doctors lo make 8 referral in
order for a tumour to be spotted much earfier. therefore ensuring
trealment begins as soon as possible.
We liaised with our local MP this year and were thrilled lo be a part of him
choosing to attend the Brain Tumour Research m8nifeslo launch. This is
vilal as11 INghlighls the need for hlgher funding and investments into
research as well as ensuring the government declares brain tumour5 a
clinical priority and increase participation in lrfe saving trials for those
affected by brain lumours. We a￿ extremely proud to have been present
for this and that our efforts in ensuring our local MP was presenl also
were successful.
Our website has proved useful in our networking aims, and we have
noticed a number of new enquirtes and support over Ihe previous
months. We continue Io UFrtYate and develop this as we go along.
We continue to push for our idea to install a gardenl nature sensory area
on grounds within Queens Medical Centre. This is something we have
been hoping lo achieve for a long time. We believe this will be a much
valued and extremely useful facility as there are r￿[rentlY such areas
available to patients or their families. Confirmation is needed before
some major fundraising action beglns to ensure this dream of ours
becomes a reality.

arch 2012

Our informative children's bcM)ks are in the last stages of development.
These will be given to familie5 upon diagnosis or before procedures
which aim to explain to children in 8 more chikllike manner about Can￿r,
procedures and machines. This is another important goal for us lo
achieve and we are excited for them lo be launched. However, given the
sensilivity and the need to be biologi(zlly correct we are assuring all
areas have been thoroughly checked by professionals before publi&g1ion.
We are thrilled with what we have created $0 far and are extremely proud
to be able Io Provide supwrt in Ihis manner. It was an area that I
persmally felt needed excelling within the hospital from when I myself
was in that situation. I felt the infofmation we were given was confusing
and scary foT my daughter and her siblings...in an already very scary
situatKsn we have aimed to explain clearty but in a way that is easier lo
understand what a diagnosis means and the treatments and procedure
that follow that diagnosis. We aim to illustrate our books in a childllke
manner to ease chlklren and sibllngs being glven such informalion.
Thls year we also purchased 8 number of birthday supplies to launch our
'Blrthdays in hospital, support. These include banners, balloons and paty
supplies as well links with local mascol serV￿S and cake providing
services paid for by us. Our aim is to support parents in making birthdays

Achievements and performance
Summary ol the maln
achlevements of Ihe charlty
during the year
Our toiletry and 8clivity packs have contlnued to be our most useful
conlribution to our famllies. We have donated hundreds this year once
again and with the help of PASICS tharity who work more directly on Ihe
wards we have distributed them across all children's wards and Bllly's
house, which houses f8milies recelving treatment that reslde out of
Nottingham.
We have also ensured a stock of glfts and activity equlpmenl to be
distributed by PASICS to patientsl families they feel thèse wlll b&neflt.
We have continued to add extra items lo our packs throughout the years.
Pamper products including bathrobes, sllppers, eye masks, ear plugs,
hair brushes and aromaiherapy oils have been added to our loilety
deliveries in hope to relieve some stress for parents and bring some
relaxation onto the wards. I have personally attended 8rom8iher8Py
courses to be able lo offer arom8therapy directly to families as I feel the
holistic benefits 8re masslve and can help ease the stress and straln of
hospi181 Ilfe.
Ddivering dinners lo famllies unable to be home for Christmas as well as
staff working on Christsnas day has been another success. Over 145
Christmas dinners were delivered across 5 children's w8rds on Christmas
day.
We have continued to highlighl the importance of our campaign lo ensure
doctors are able to SFQt papilledema in future patients presenting
symptoms which may indicale a brain tumour. This we hope will
decrease diagn05iS time further leading to faster and more effecttve
trealment.
We are exated to launch our information books and feel these will be a
vital source of support for families. Fin81 touches are needed lo ensure
the
are factuall
correct and that illustration is to 8 hi
h stsndard.

other o
tional information
The Jorja-Rose Foundatton wa$ eslablished followlrKJ the d88th of my daughter to an aggresslve braln
tumour in 2017. During our lengthy Stays in hospitsl, I
of course gained insight lo Ihe needs of the wards.
Our achievements and fulure goals are all bom from
this insight. We work dlreetly with the hospitsl and
PASICS to ensure our donations and glfts are
delivered to benefit those in need.
We are pleased that thls year has sllghtly Improved
Ilnanclally for us but we are still feel the effects of the
cost of living crisis is impacling us in our fvndraising
efforts. We have maintained a steady source of
support however which we are extremely grateful for.
We are 8iming lo apply for grants this year as we feel
this may aid us in excelling our charity efforts further.
We have never felt confident enough in Ihe past as we
recognise we are a sm811 tharity and concentrated
more on support from public donalions and fundraising. However, we now have support in applying for
grants and feel we are ready to move on to doing this.
Everything we do is in memory of Jory&Rose and we strive to follow poliaes and procedures woperly lo
ensure the continuation of her legacy. It is a personal achievement each lime we reach sometw)dy new by
leS1ing Jorjas story which has always been vit81 in raising awareness into childhood brain lumours.
We have many large goals which often feel a mountain to climb with us being such a small organisation and
are working hard in achieving them. Everylhing we do in J¢wia-Rose's name is extremely important to us and
we Strive lo continue the support we provide as we realise how these seemingly small things help families in
