Harry’s Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust
Chair’s Statement
for the Period Ended 31 March 2023
I’m delighted to submit my first annual statement, as Chair of Harry’s HAT. Over the last year, the Charity has experienced a rapid and exciting period of growth. This has shined a spotlight on the need for our work and has resulted in structural changes to the Charity, to enable us to provide more cohesive support to our service users. I am extraordinarily proud of how our Founder, Trustees, volunteers, and supporters have adapted to the increase in workflow and demand. Almost everybody involved with the Charity gives their time and expertise on a voluntary basis. They are the heart of Harry’s HAT, without whom we could not function.
I would like to say a special thank you to the Charity’s previous Chair, Teri Kearsey, who stepped down from the role due to a family bereavement. During her tenure, Teri was instrumental in creating our eye-catching Harry’s HAT branding and building the Charity’s social media presence. Her work in this area has allowed us to expand our reach, become an easily recognisable brand amongst families and clinicians, and increase our credibility. We are fortunate that Teri remains aligned to the Charity as a marketing volunteer and are delighted that we will continue to benefit from her expertise.
I would also like to thank Michelle Harley for diligently providing the Charity with sound guidance over the last few years, in her role as a Trustee with clinical expertise. Michelle stepped down to the Board to spend more time with her family, and we are so grateful to the insight she provided during her tenure.
To maintain a diverse mixture of voices on our Board, we were delighted to welcome Louise Fleming to the Trustee team this year. Louise is the mother of a hydro-warrior and brings key lived experience. In our latest grants panel for families, Louise was instrumental in helping the team understand the scale of impact which requested equipment and support could have on a family. We are thrilled to have her on board.
I’m also pleased that Non Hill’s role within the Charity has changed from Trustee to ViceChair. Non has a wealth of experience working in public health organisations and has been instrumental in spearheading our research efforts since she began volunteering with the Charity in 2019. Non has taken responsibility for reviewing and maintaining the Charity’s policies, to ensure that we are continuing good governance practices as the Charity grows. I could not ask for a more passionate, empathetic, innovative individual to work alongside and I am immensely grateful for Non’s work.
I would like to express my gratitude to our whole Trustee team, who all work tirelessly to improve the lives of hydro-warriors and their families. Each one of them brings a different skillset to the Charity, and we are fortunate that none are shy in voicing any concerns or
Page 7
disagreements. It is a privilege to work alongside them, and Harry’s HAT continues to benefit from their oversight and strategic leadership.
As noted earlier, the Charity has undergone some exciting structural changes over the last year, to ensure that we are able to keep pace with the exponential rate of demand from our service users. One such change was the appointment of a paid CEO, and I am delighted that Caroline Coates has taken on this role. With the kind assistance of David Fleming at Stanton House, we undertook a detailed recruitment exercise and marketed the role as widely as possible. As a result of this process, and after a formal interview, it was unanimously concluded that Caroline was the right person to spearhead the Charity. As Harry’s HAT’s Founder, Caroline had been carrying out many CEO duties in a voluntary capacity for some time already. She had fostered strong links with clinicians, stakeholders and families and had been instrumental in the success of key grant awards. I am thrilled that she is in post, and she has already demonstrated beyond doubt that her appointment was the right decision for the Charity. I am certain that Harry’s HAT will continue to thrive, and service users will continue to benefit, from her leadership.
As well as appointing a CEO, we also recognised a need to employ a Families Together Manager. This decision was made due to the strong increase in demand from families, who would benefit from peer-to-peer support and detailed signposting to other organisations. After another stringent recruitment process, Harry’s HAT appointed Vicki Hannay. Vicki is highly regarded by our service users and a true asset to the Charity. She has arranged inperson family gatherings, established WhatsApp groups for families in different locations, and created much-needed resources to help parents and carers navigate their child’s journey with hydrocephalus. Vicki is innovative and able to spot areas requiring further attention and, as such, is currently curating a Siblings Support programme. I have no doubt that hydro families will continue to benefit from her expertise.
The Charity has certainly experienced some key milestones and success over the last year. We held our first Parliamentary Reception at the House of Commons in June 2022, which was attended by cross-party ministers, leading neurosurgeons, services users, and other charities including the Hydrocephalus Association and Child Brain Injury Trust. The speeches throughout the event were focussed on how early identification of hydrocephalus, through regular and properly tracked head circumference measurement, can lead to improved outcomes for children, and I would like to thank Emma Pilling and Danielle Faulkner for sharing their personal stories so openly.
Thanks to the willingness of Emma, Danielle, and other families to share their experiences, it has become starkly clear that more focus needs to be placed on head circumference measurement in infants. In association with our service users, clinicians, and professional bodies, we consequently launched our Get-A-Head campaign this year. I would like to pay particular thanks to our Research Consultant, Roisin McNicholas, who has worked tirelessly to demonstrate the clinical benefits of early identification of paediatric hydrocephalus. Roisin is vital to Harry’s HAT’s research efforts and her academic curiosity and skill have enabled us to become a key voice for change in this area. We have received support for the
Page 8
campaign from government ministers and neurosurgeons, and we remain committed to championing head circumference measurement.
Of course, the work we have undertaken this year is only made possible by the generosity of funders and donors. I would like to express my gratitude, on behalf of the Charity and our service users, to the National Lottery, Globals Make Some Noise, BA’s Community Giving Fund, Stanton House, Big Picture, the Matthew Good Foundation, the Yateley District Lions Club and the many individuals who have kindly fundraised on Harry’s HAT’s behalf.
The rate of demand for our services has shown no signs of slowing this year, and I anticipate that it will only continue to grow. I am confident that we have the right blend of individuals in post to support the Charity as we expand and am immensely proud of the way in which our team consistently acts with empathy and integrity, even when workloads are extraordinarily high. I look forward to another year of delivering high quality services to hydro-warriors and their families and would like to extend my thanks, once again, to our fantastic team who make the work possible.
Harri Mead, Chair of Trustees

Founder’s Statement, for the Period Ended 31 March 2023
It is a pleasure to write my Founder’s report and to be able to reflect on how far we have come.
As always, our work is for the children and their families who battle hydrocephalus every day. Put simply we exist for them and, consequently, our only true measure of success is whether or not our work is making a difference to them. Comments such as “ without Harry’s HAT I don’t think I’d still be standing” reinforces the need and highlights why everyone involved with the Charity gives so much and works so hard.
To echo my comments from last year, and that of the year before, none of this work would have been possible without the tireless dedication of our team. The majority of them give their time in a voluntary capacity and for this I am truly grateful.
Last year we launched our ‘Get-A-Head’ campaign, which aimed to highlight the importance of head circumference measurement as a key method for identifying babies showing signs of the hydrocephalus, and to encourage early diagnosis. One of the highlights this year was our Parliamentary Reception where key stakeholders including Neurosurgeons, families and cross-party government ministers came to Westminster to discuss why head circumference measurement is so important. My special thanks go to parents Danielle Faulkner and Emma Pilling, who spoke so passionately about this work. I also want to extend my gratitude to our friends from the Hydrocephalus Association who travelled from America to attend the event.
This year we recruited our first paid member of the staff. Vicki Hannay joined us as our Families Together Manager, a role which was made possible thanks to the generosity of Globals Make Some Noise. Vicki has brought with her a wealth of experience and passion and is particularly interesting in making sure siblings of children with the condition have a voice. I am delighted to be working alongside Vicki who has already built a database of families needing support, organised vital family meetups and created essential resources to support families through their hydrocephalus journey.
In personal news I am delighted that, after four years of running the charity in a voluntary capacity, I am now able to lead the charity as it’s CEO. The need for this role became apparent as the charity has grown so significantly in such a short time.
Key achievements and highlights this year also include:
-
Funding 23 Specialist Neurosurgical Nurses to further their understanding of hydrocephalus.
-
Delivering a workshop to 250 health visitors about hydrocephalus and the importance of head circumference measurement in babies.
-
Attending a Midwifery festival to ensure midwives are better aware of the condition.
-
Launching our Families Together Programme
Page 10
-
Outreaching to all the specialist hospitals to ensure that families affected by hydrocephalus are aware of our work and can access our support.
-
Seeing Stanton House’s fundraising surpass £20,000.
-
Securing funding from BA’s Community Giving Fund to enable us to focus on the GetA-Head campaign.
-
Partnering with the Hydrocephalus Association to bring their HydroAssist App to a UK audience.
-
Developing a charity film to highlight our work, thanks to Big Picture and the Matthew Good Foundation.
-
Launching our Superstar Siblings Project which has supported 74 children to date.
-
Distributing 10,000 NHS approved paper tape measures, thanks to the generous support from the Yateley and District Lions Club.
-
Speaking about the charity and our work to attendees at the British Paediatric Neurosurgical Group in Birmingham.
I would like to pay a special thank you to Teri Kearsey who stood down after the loss of her father in this period. Martin was a tremendous supporter of the charity and is missed by us all. We want to thank Teri for her time, work and drive which has enabled to make significant progress. Teri remains a volunteer and is committed to developing the Harry’s HAT brand.
We have also bid farewell to Michelle Harley, as a Trustee with clinical expertise, due to personal reasons. As a family GP, Michelle has brought valuable medical experience to Board discussions and was a champion of our Get-A-Head work. I would like to thank her for all of her time and insight over the years.
Harri Mead stepped into the role of Chair, with Non Hill as Vice Chair. Under their strong stewardship we have been able to thoroughly review all our policies and governance procedures to ensure that we are strongly equipped to meet the challenges ahead.
We also welcome Louise Fleming to the Trustee Board. Louise has lived experience as a Mother of child with hydrocephalus and brings valuable fundraising and project management skills to the team.
Naghza Khokhar, known as Nags, also joined the Trustee team and takes the role of CoTreasurer. Nags brings a wealth of skills, as she is qualified accountant and a fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA). Nags has implemented a strong financial strategy, risk policy and management accounts. We are delighted to have both Nags and Louise on the Board.
Thank you to everyone who gives their time and/or donates their money to support our work. We really couldn’t do this without you, and we are forever grateful for your continued encouragement and support.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Directors and Trustees of
Harrys Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust
I report on the accounts of the charity for the period ended 31 March 2023 which are set out on pages 12 to 24.
Respective responsibilities of directors and examiner
The charity’s directors are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s directors consider that an audit is not required for this Period under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view” and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Other matters
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) 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 (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 in preference to the Accounting and Reporting Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn.
We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
Page 12
Independent Examiner's Report to the Directors and Trustees of
Harrys Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust (continued)
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
- 2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(vii). Taxation.
The charity is exempt from Corporation tax on its charitable activities. It has no trading income and therefore no liability to tax on this aspect of its activities.
(vii). Tangible Fixed Assets.
Tangible Fixed Assets (excluding Investments) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life.
The rates used are as follows:
-
Computer and IT Equipment - 33.3% straight line.
-
Fixtures and Fittings – 25.0% straight line

Page 18
Harrys Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Period Ended 31 March 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Basic financial assets.
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable in one year are not amortised. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(x). Investments
Investment assets held with the intention of retaining them long-term for the continuing benefit of the charity in the form of income and capital appreciation are classified as fixed assets except where the intention is to realise the asset without reinvestment of the sale proceeds. In such cases investments are classified as current assets.
Investment assets are shown in the balance sheet at quoted market price. Changes in value in the year, whether or not realised, are reported as gains and losses on investment assets in the Statement of Financial Activities.
(xi). Critical Accounting estimates and Judgments.
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. No judgements made by the trustees have had a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. There are no key assumptions or sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
