Commentary on the model Trustees’ Annual Report and accounts: The Phoebe Hoskin Trust
The charity had an income of £1491.46 in the year and is eligible for independent examination. As the charity is below the larger charity threshold it may also prepare a simple annual report (refer to CC15d Charity Reporting and Accounting: The essentials and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008). An example report by the charity’s the independent examiner (see ‘CC32- Independent Examination of Charity Accounts’ for further examples of examiner’s reports) is also included.
The trustees’ annual report CC16b pro forma
Trustees do not have to use the pro forma to write their annual report but the form includes all the information trustees must provide and gives an opportunity to provide further optional information if the trustees so wish.
The ‘ Summary of the main activities undertaken’ also includes confirmation that the trustees have had regard to our guidance on public benefit when planning the charity’s activities. Further information about is provided in a ‘Summary of the main achievements ’ Additional voluntary information is provided about the contribution made by volunteers, collaboration with other organisations and details of the charity’s main policies and future plans. In addition, the report confirms that the trustees received no remuneration or other benefits from the charity.
The accounts CC16a pro forma (in original form as a separate excel document)
The accounts pro forma is suitable for comparatively straightforward accounts. Before using the pro forma please read the completion notes. We also recommend that a bank reconciliation is prepared to reconcile the closing balance at bank before completing the form. Also charities with several restricted funds or more complex affairs may need to summarise their information before using the pro forma or alternatively use it as a tool to assist in the design of their own accounts.
The statement of assets and liabilities includes online banking

Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year.
Moonlight Memory Evening: In October, we held our annual Moonlight Memory Evening, a poignant gathering where families came together to remember the children they have lost. This event provided a safe and supportive space for parents and families to share their stories, light candles, and create lasting memories. The evening allowed participants to connect with others who are going through similar experiences, fostering a sense of community and healing. Garden Days at the Forever and Always Garden:We have organized several Garden Days at the Forever and Always Garden, where families participated in activities such as painting rocks and creating memory markers for their children. These garden days have proven to be therapeutic, allowing families to express their feelings and keep the memory of their loved ones alive in a beautiful and serene environment. Christmas Tree Commemoration: In a touching tribute during the holiday season, we placed a Christmas tree in the Forever and Always Garden. Members of the community were invited to purchase plaques to hang on the tree in memory of a child. This initiative brought comfort and joy to many families, allowing them to celebrate the memories of their children while being reminded that they are not alone in their grief.7 Awareness Campaign:To further promote our charity and raise awareness about child loss and grief, we distributed a number of informational leaflets around Dartford Hospital. This campaign aimed to reach families who might benefit from our support services and to educate the community about the complexities of grief and loss. Fundraising Initiatives:We are grateful for the collaboration with a local solicitors firm, which has adopted us as their Charity of the Year. Their fundraising efforts at the Forever and Always Garden have raised significant funds to support our mission, helping us to expand our outreach and provide more resources to families in need. Conclusion:The Phoebe Hoskin Trust continues to make a meaningful impact in the lives of families who have experienced the heartbreaking loss of a child. Through our recent initiatives— from remembrance events and creative garden days to awareness campaigns and successful fundraising—we aim to support grieving families, honor their children, and promote understanding of child loss and grief in our community. Thank you to all our supporters, volunteers, and partners who have helped us achieve these milestones.
