Well this is a new experience for me and like all of us I expect we are reflecting on a year that has brought all of us at the Terrible Titties a variety of challenges and successes, obstacles and opportunities. 

Despite a year that no one could have predicted, despite the challenges brought about by COVID, the organisation has completed its development into a registered charity. 

Throughout this year we have been able to increase the number of families assisted by around 25% and now support 100 families in the Staffordshire region. 

Fundraising has continued and by all accounts there is money to spend as some of the planned events had to be paused or rearranged. 

With the gift of a plot of land from our friends at Stafford Rugby Club a beautiful memorial garden has been first imagined and designed, has now been planted and created and awaits a suitable official grand opening just as soon as circumstances allow. 

I’ve only seen a few pictures so far but I know that it’s going to be a really beneficial focal point to both publicly and also privately remember those who you have all worked so hard to support. 

The effects of COVID on where we all hoped the charity would be by now should not be underestimated. 

The advent of lock down for almost all of us and shielding for some of us has meant that the nature of the support and services offered had to change.   However, although it did change it has never stopped. 

Regular monthly zoom meetings have been held for both small and large groups so that, as much as possible, connections and friendships are maintained and so that support is uninterrupted. 

In fact it may be that once we are out the other side of this long pandemic, we may find that COVID has taught us as a charity several things.   For example, many of us will feel that nothing will beat a face-to face meeting, seeing friends for a coffee and a catch up and even a cry.   However, it may be that some of the people you all work so hard to support feel that, at different stages in their cancer journey, that they might actually prefer to stay home and catch up on a laptop and a zoom meeting that we’ve all had to learn to get used to. 

If there are lessons like this , and others to learn then we should be ready to listen. 



The next 12 months brings many opportunities and only some will be affected by the rate of opening up after lockdown. 

We have a Grand opening for the memorial garden to look forward to and off course there’s a Gala ball that will need planning but however long restrictions apply we aim to investigate and develop new funding streams such as grant applications and other donations. 

I would like to thank everyone involved with TTOBs for both their patience during a tumultuous 12 months and for their continued dedication and hardwork in supporting the many families who reach out for your help
