EGFR mutation positive lung cancer is a form of lung cancer drive which affects approximately 10% of those diagnosed with lung cancer. Patients are, on average, much younger than most other lung cancer patients and - are often non smokers. ## **1. Objectives and Activities** The objectives of the Charity are to relieve sickness and to preserve and protect good health of UK Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation positive lung cancer patients by:- - a. providing an information resource, including access to information about latest developments and clinical trials. - b. Identifying and locating UK EGFR patients and offering support and guidance on the location of UK EGFR specialists and services. - c. Liaising with and influencing decision makers eg. NICE, NHS, DVLA; - d. Raising awareness of EGFR lung cancer, particularly amongst the medical profession in order to promote the best treatment for patients. - e. Liaising with relevant organisations, in particular Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation and the pharmaceutical industry. - f. Raising funds for the above purposes. ## **2. Achievements and Performance** The charity was registered with the Charity Commission on May 29[th,] 2020. The charity grew from a support group for EGFR patients established in February 2019 by two patients. It became clear there was a need for more support and information for EGFR patients and their families and a desire from bodies such as NICE for patients affected by this form of lung cancer to take part in decision making **The notes on pages 10 to 11 form part of these financial statements.** **Page 2** ## **EGFR Positive UK** processes which would affect them. Our activities and performance in our first year have greatly exceeded our expectations. The charity remains patient- driven and led. The main activities undertaken to further our objectives were: ## **2.1 Support of Patients** ## Website The website was established. It provides information about the charity and is a source of information for members to be better informed about EGFR-positive lung cancer. Facebook Page The Facebook page continues to be a great success and the number of users has steadily increased. Each day, there are posting by patients sharing experiences and giving and receiving emotional support. It is particularly pleasing that new members receive a very warm welcome from existing members. A survey of followers showed that 95% would recommend the group to other EGFRpositive patients. Other activities included organising talks from EGFR experts which members were able to attend via Zoom and the introduction of Zoom coffee mornings which have been held on a regular basis. We also published our guide ‘Good Practice from the Patient’s Perspective’ Patients Forum Meeting – our first meeting was held in November 2020 in London. Approximately forty members attended to hear talks from EGFR experts and to meet each other. ## **2.2 Advocacy** We attended meetings with healthcare professionals where we raised awareness of the Charity and of EGFR-positive lung cancer and advocated on behalf of patients. These meeting were in person in the first quarter of the year and then online thereafter. It is important that healthcare professionals are aware of the charity and the support that we provide so that they direct their patients to us. The growth in members indicates that we are having some success in raising this awareness. We were consulted by the National Institute for Health and Care (NICE) on applications by pharmaceutical companies for approval of their products and we attended online meetings with NICE where we have given the patients’ perspective. We have attended and spoken at several meetings run by pharmaceutical companies to highlight the needs and concerns of EGFR patients. We have become members of the United Kingdom Lung Cancer Coalition and sit on the Clinical Excellence Group for Lung Cancer. ## **2.3 Fundraising** **The notes on pages 10 to 11 form part of these financial statements.** **Page 3** ## **EGFR Positive UK** Due to COVID and the fact that the charity was still establishing itself our fundraising activities have been minimal. ## **3. Financial Review** The Charity had £2,927 in its bank account at the end of the financial year. We do not have premises and we do not employ staff. We have a very low level of fixed costs, e.g. website maintenance, subscriptions to other organisations, insurance, and our end of year balances are largely available to promote the charity’s objectives. ## **4. Structure, Governance and Management** The Charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, and the governing document is its Constitution. The Constitution provides that there shall be between three and eight Trustees and there were eight throughout the period to the end of March 2020. The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. ## **5.
