## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025. The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the Charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
The period from April 2024 to March 2025 has been a significant and transformative year for It’s Never You. The Charity strengthened its support for parents of children with cancer, expanded its national reach, and achieved meaningful progress in advocacy and policy engagement. Alongside this, fundraising activity and public awareness grew substantially, enabling the Charity to support more families than ever before.
## **Objectives and activities**
## **a. Policies and objectives**
The Charity exists for the public benefit to preserve and protect the health and wellbeing of families who have children with life limiting illnesses, by providing advice, support, facilities, and resources not ordinarily available through statutory provision..
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
## **b. Strategies for achieving objectives**
The Charity delivers its objectives by:
- Providing direct emotional, practical, and financial support to parents of children undergoing cancer treatment;
- Creating accessible digital platforms and communities for parents;
- Advocating for systemic change to improve how parents are supported during and after a child’s illness;
- Raising awareness of the wider impact childhood cancer has on families.
## **c. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives**
During the year the Charity focused on:
- Expanding parent support services across the UK;
- Delivering tangible support to families in hospital settings;
- Building peer-to-peer community between parents;
- Advancing advocacy work to influence policy and legislation.
## **d. Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit**

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Achievements and performance**
## **a. Main achievements of the Charity**
## **a. Parent Support and Services**
Supporting parents remains at the heart of It’s Never You’s work. During the year, the Charity’s Children’s Cancer Platform expanded further and is now present in almost every paediatric oncology hospital in the UK, enabling direct engagement with families when they need it most.
Key developments during the year included:
- **Redesigned Digital Platform** : The Charity’s app was redesigned to prioritise practical resources, forms, signposting to partner charities, and community connection. Feedback from parents has been overwhelmingly positive.
- **Grief and Bereavement Support** : A dedicated grief section was introduced within the app to support parents whose child has died, providing specialist resources and peer connection.
- **Counselling Services** : One to one counselling sessions were introduced for parents, delivered remotely to ensure accessibility. The Charity aims to provide sessions within 48–72 hours of a request, with costs covered by the Charity.
- **The Hughy Fund** : The Hughy Fund continued to provide direct financial relief to parents whose child is an inpatient receiving treatment. Support included food vouchers, Amazon vouchers, Deliveroo vouchers, wellbeing items, and themed gifts for children.
- **Partnership Support** : Through partnership working, the Charity distributed donated blankets, hats, and scarves to parents in hospital settings.
## **b. Advocacy and Policy Impact**
Advocacy remained a central pillar of the Charity’s work throughout the year, with significant progress made despite political change and external constraints.
- **National Media Coverage** : Hugh’s Law received substantial national media attention during the period, significantly increasing public awareness of the challenges faced by parents of seriously ill children and strengthening support for legislative change.
- **Impact of the General Election** : Progress on Hugh’s Report, which had been committed to at the despatch box, was interrupted due to the General Election. As a result, work on the report concluded under the previous Government before it could be formally advanced.
- **Parliamentary Engagement Under the New Government** : Following the General Election, a newly elected Member of Parliament publicly supported the campaign. In July, this MP raised Hugh’s Law directly at Prime Minister’s Questions, helping to re-establish momentum for the issue at the highest level of Government.
- **Parliamentary Drop-in Session** : The Charity held its first parliamentary drop-in session, which was attended by over 75 Members of Parliament from across parties. This event marked a significant step in building cross-party understanding and support for Hugh’s Law.
- **Cross-Party Support** : A cross-party letter signed by over 78 MPs was formally delivered to 10 Downing Street, calling for the introduction of Hugh’s Law and improved financial support for parents of seriously ill children.
These activities significantly strengthened the Charity’s profile within Parliament and reinforced the cross-party nature of support for reform.

## **b. Fundraising activities and income generation**
Fundraising activity during the year played a vital role in supporting the Charity’s work and increasing awareness. Major fundraising initiatives included:
- **London Marathon** : Two supporters completed the London Marathon, raising funds and national awareness.
- **National Three Peaks Challenge** : A demanding endurance challenge that attracted strong community backing.
- **Golf Days** : Multiple successful golf fundraising events held throughout the year.
- **Christmas Butterfly Ball** : The Charity’s first black tie fundraising ball, which was a significant success both financially and in strengthening supporter engagement.
These events not only generated essential income but also helped build lasting relationships with supporters and partners.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Financial review**
## **a. Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
## **b. Reserves policy**
The Trustees aim to maintain sufficient reserves to ensure the Charity can meet its commitments and continue to deliver its objectives while managing financial risk responsibly.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## **a. Constitution**
Its Never You is registered as a charitable incorporated organisation and was set up by a Memorandum of Association dated 15 March 2022.
## **b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees**
The Charity is governed by a Board of Trustees, who are appointed and elected in accordance with the governing document. The Trustees are responsible for the strategic direction, oversight, and governance of the Charity.
## **Members' liability**
The members of the Charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the Charity in the event of winding up.
## **Conclusion and future goals**
Building on the progress made during the year, the Charity’s priorities for the coming period include:
- Expanding The Hughy Fund to support more families;
- Increasing access to counselling and wellbeing support;
- Continuing advocacy to ensure Hugh’s Law and Hugh’s Report lead to tangible, lasting change;
- Further extending the Charity’s reach so no parent feels alone during their child’s cancer journey.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Statement of Trustees' responsibilities**
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial . Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Its Never You ('the Charity')**
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.
## **Responsibilities and Basis of Report**
As the Trustees of the Charity (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent Examiner's Statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

(Chair of Trustees)

**ITS NEVER YOU**
**(A Charitable Incorporated Organisation)**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1. Accounting policies**
## **1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Its Never You meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
## **1.2 Income**
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
## **1.3 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
## **1.4 Research and development**
Development costs are capitalised within intangible assets where they can be identified with a specific product or project anticipated to produce future benefits, and are amortised on the straight line basis over the anticipated life of the benefits arising from the completed product or project.
Deferred research and development costs are reviewed annually, and where future benefits are deemed to have ceased or to be in doubt, the balance of any related research and development is written off to the Statement of Financial Activities.
## **1.5 Intangible assets and amortisation**
Intangible assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable, and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

## **(A Charitable Incorporated Organisation)**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **1.5 Intangible assets and amortisation (continued)**
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life.
Amortisation is provided on the following bases:
|Patents|-|10|%|Straight line|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|Development expenditure|-|10|%|Straight line|
|Trademarks|-|10|%|Straight line|
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**
Tangible fixed assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Computer equipment - 15% Straight line
## **1.7 Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **1.8 Liabilities and provisions**
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
## **1.9 Financial instruments**
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
