Dear Toby Trust Trustees Annual report
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The purpose of the charity as set out in its governing document is to relieve sickness and to preserve and protect good health for the public benefit of children with cancer, by funding new research, providing financial support to trainee oncology and haematology nurses and financial assistance to those caring for seriously ill children and infants. Additionally, the charity seeks to advance the education of the public in childhood cancer funding and treatment and the critical role played by nurses, hospital staff and volunteers in caring for and nurturing seriously ill infants and children.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The Trust secured its first corporate partnership in March 2024 with FTI Consulting. Through this partnership we hope to fundraise as well as raise the profile of our charity through a variety of events. In addition, the charity has access to a number of pro-bono benefits via the partnership – including support with advocacy, accounting, communications, and networking. The Trust has also commissioned a new video to be produced in 2024 with the aim of increasing engagement and awareness with the charity objectives.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
On 1 June 2024 The Dear Toby Trust will host its first gala dinner and fundraiser – with the ambition to raise another £20k in one evening. Research in the UK is desperately underfunded with only 2% of cancer research funding dedicated to fighting children’s cancer. For many medical professionals at the vanguard of new and promising research, lack of funding is a barrier that can stand in the way of critical early discoveries. What’s lacking is prime funding – enabling researchers to obtain provisional data that can be the spark for an all important clinical trial. Just 10 to 20 thousand pounds could overcome this – providing an important and significant early step towards finding new and kinder ways to treat children with rare forms of cancer.
Statement of trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust deed. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
