|Policy on social investment<br>including program related<br>investment|Para 1.38|n/a|
|Contribution made by<br>volunteers|Para 1.38|Our team of around 40 volunteers make a vital<br>contribution to the work of the Hypermobility<br>Syndromes Association (HMSA).  Almost all our<br>volunteers live with hypermobility, and we see it as|





essential that the charity is truly led by people from within our community of need. Our volunteers genuinely understand hypermobility syndromes and have daily lived experience and are empowered to shape the support, advice and solutions we provide. Their lived experience and insight, combined with an ethos of practical self-management, enables the HMSA to provide validation, support, and practical advice that cannot come from theoretical understanding alone. The composition of our trustee board, staff and wider volunteer team all demonstrate the value we place on being led by lived experience. We do a huge amount with very limited resources thanks to our amazing volunteers who cover a wide range of roles from social media, to fundraising, to running local groups providing peer-led support, to editing our journal, to supporting and leading our work with professionals.  Through these roles, many volunteers gain valuable experience, build confidence, and develop transferable skills. “It makes me feel I belong.  After years being supported by the HMSA, I can now give something back.” “ I absolutely adore volunteering for them, and I hope to continue to do so for many more years to come... I am passionate about empowering the audience with knowledge to self-manage better” “I believe it's vital for the voices of people who have hypermobility to be heard and valued - in everything the HMSA does and in its own board and organisation. I've met people with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences since becoming a Trustee. Hearing their stories and seeing how these stories can support and improve other people's lives is one of the best parts about being a Trustee” We are also extremely lucky to have a voluntary group of Clinical Advisors, led by Dr Philip Bull, who bring expertise, skills and knowledge across a range of specialist fields relevant to hypermobility ensuring that the information we provide is up to date, rigorously checked and comprehensive. The HMSA is run by 2 paid, part-time staff whose total Other hours do not equate to 1 full-time role.  Both paid members of staff also live with hypermobility. All other work is carried out by volunteers. 



## **Achievements and performance** 

|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20||The HMSA is here to support_everyone_with<br>symptomatic hypermobility, whatever the cause, and<br>however mildly or severely they may be affected.<br>We promote a holistic, solution-focussed approach to<br>living well, providing self-management tools and<br>support including:<br>• Patient Support Groups<br>• Education Programmes<br>• Information and Advice for hypermobile people<br>• Evidence-based information and advice for<br>healthcare professionals<br>Our mission:<br>Improving the quality of life for everyone affected by<br>symptomatic hypermobility by:<br>• accelerating access to timely and accurate<br>diagnosis;<br>• promoting awareness and understanding<br>amongst professionals to support better care;<br>• providing validation, support and practical self-<br>management tools from a community who truly<br>understands<br>Our vision:everyone affected by symptomatic<br>hypermobility is able to access the care, support and<br>advice they need – from both peers and professionals.<br>Our Values:Empowering, inclusive, collaborative,<br>community-led, trustworthy.<br>“The Hypermobility Syndromes Association … has<br>done more for me than any other organisation or<br>appointment to help me manage my symptoms, feel<br>heard and to improve the quality of my everyday life”<br>(member)<br>With the NHS continuing to be under extreme pressure,<br>with waiting lists still growing, we help to reduce the<br>burden on statutory services by delivering support<br>when it was not available elsewhere.

they are able to live well.  Session content was shaped by feedback from members and volunteers.  This series of events has been extremely well attended and received with over 2200 people registering for live events – with many more watching them on playback. A threefold increase on attendance from last year, shows the growing need and demand for these sessions. “It's good to know we are not alone. I'm learning all the time and since I joined the organization I feel more confident helping my Granddaughter...” “Absolutely amazing. I look forward to more sessions in the future to help me develop my own resilience within my hypermobility.” “Very good information provided in an understandable format.” (Post event feedback) For a charity staffed mainly by volunteers, many with their own health needs, this level of service provision when services are so stretched is vital and is a major achievement. “ The information given was very useful and personalised to my questions. Jo's delivery is fantastic and her communication skills are brilliant. I felt very much at ease. (Feedback about our support.) The ‘Living Well with Hypermobility’ 5 week course for members at the start of the year was also a great success again and was extremely well attended with excellent feedback.  The sessions included: Anxiety and mental health; Pain management; Sleep management; Weight management and an open Q&A session. Feedback given from participants post sessions told us: • “They're really good at getting trusted information to the public / patients, who would struggle to find it elsewhere.” • “Just vital for us. Please continue forever!!! (with pacing of course) . Thanks” • “Excellent session wish I had had this years ago. I will go pass on what I have learnt to my 3 adult daughters all of whom have these issues too as well as myself. Cannot thank you enough.” 



We also run a helpline and deliver online support, offering validation, signposting and practical advice. • “Thank you.  No one else has understood or listened or helped me like you have.” (Helpline feedback) • “Thank you so much.  No one else understood and not only have I been heard, I’ve been helped with practical advice.” (Helpline feedback) As well as offering support via a wide range of sessions and events including weekly online relaxation classes to support wellbeing, we also run monthly online ‘ask the Occupational Therapist’ sessions which are free and open to all. Feedback after ‘Ask the OT’ session: “ I love ALL of these sessions .please continue. They are vital for my health.” “I cannot wait to attend more sessions. “" Calm, friendly, constructive approach " Additionally, our local regional groups successfully continued their transition to hybrid delivery providing much needed support, connection and information for our members with regional groups regularly running. In response to feedback, we have also started to offer national online support groups that focus on specific issues.  Feedback stresses the importance of sharing and support within a community of peers that understand. Feedback: “…The feeling of community and being with people who understand is so important.” “Community - a group of people who understand and not being preached too by a healthcare professional who doesn’t get it” Our social media team continued to be very active in raising awareness and providing information not only about hypermobility but also a wide range of related conditions.  Over 500 individuals were supported with 1:1 advice and support via Facebook or online enquiries, in addition to the very high levels of public engagement with our posts.  For a small charity, our reach on social media which continues to grow (c.50k on Facebook, c. 12k on twitter and 3k on Instagram) continues to be impressive. Additional help was provided by our trained helpline team led by volunteers helping to support over 800 more people via email, online and phone. 



During 2024, we continued to work closely in partnership with relevant charities in the field. Together we worked hard behind the scenes to ensure that key hypermobility services remain open and that more healthcare professionals are better informed about hypermobility. This important work is necessary so that patients can access earlier diagnosis as well as better support in their local area in the future. We liaised with a wide range of clinicians and attended some key events such as the British Society of Rheumatologists’ Annual Conference in Liverpool attended by over 2000 professionals.  Supported by volunteers and our Lead Clinical Advisor, Dr Philip Bull, we spoke directly to hundreds of professionals, delivered a very well-attended presentation and shared new resources. Many of the key achievements in 2024 were ensuring that the HMSA was continuing to build the foundations for future growth and development.  Significant progress was made in reviewing and stabilising the financial position, helping to sustain and develop the charity’s work. The board and CEO reviewed the charity’s strategy and future plans.  The key priority for the short-term remains on raising vital funds so that the charity can extend and further develop its work. We were pleased to receive an Awards for All grant from The National Lottery Community Fund.  This will help us to run a national awareness event with a range of sessions to reach more people, and offer advice, support and resources in June 2025 – sessions will be led by both clinical experts and those with lived experience on how to manage symptoms and will be an opportunity for the whole community to come together to learn and share. We would like to thank The National Lottery Community Fund for making this possible. Key changes: After years of fantastic service and contributions – particularly with strategy development – Gil Hilleard retired from the board.  The HMSA is indebted to the support and expertise Gil provided and we extend our thanks to him for all that he has done to strengthen and develop the charity. We are lucky to have a strong trustee board and the varied skills and very extensive experience that they jointly bring means that the charity is fully able to meet any challenges ahead while continuing to shape and develop the HMSA’s future strategy. 



We are also pleased to confirm the reappointment of Rachel King, Nichola Gardner, Zoe Lomax, and Mark Austin (Chair) for a further three-year term. We are deeply grateful to them and to the entire board for their continued commitment, insight, and leadership.

|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The charity aims to keep around 3 months in reserves<br>up to a maximum of 6 months. This allows us to<br>manage smoothly any month-on-month<br>income/expenditure and cash flow variations as these<br>can have a greater impact on a small charity. In<br>determining appropriate reserves levels, our reserves<br>policy takes into account the size of the charity and its<br>sources of funding and also follows the Charity<br>Commission Guidance that recommends we consider<br>the following when determining reserves levels:<br>•<br>“plans for the maintenance of essential services<br>for beneficiaries”<br>•<br>“the risks of unplanned closure associated with<br>the charity’s business model, spending<br>commitments, potential liabilities and financial<br>forecasts”<br>•<br>“addresses the risks of unplanned closure on<br>their beneficiaries (in particular, vulnerable<br>beneficiaries), staff and volunteers”<br>Reserves are actively considered as part of our financial<br>planning and cash flow monitoring, ensuring we<br>maintain a sustainable and responsive approach to<br>managing our resources. In this way, trustees can<br>ensure that we prevent the build-up of excess reserves<br>or of reserves being unexpectedly or rapidly depleted.|
