Trustees’ Annual Report for the period
From 26 January 2023 Period start date To 1 July 2024 Period end date
Charity name: Standards Authority for Touch in Cancer Care (“SATCC”)
Charity registration number: 1201728
Objectives and Activities
To promote and protect the physical and mental health of people in the UK who have received a diagnosis of cancer by providing standards for the training of touch therapists in all areas relating to cancer, and providing accreditation, with the aim of enabling the spa and wellness sector to offer touch therapy for people living with cancer.
Our aim is to provide 3 things:
-
A direct means for consumers to find SATCC accredited, safe and welcoming salons, spas and therapists who offer treatments for those touched by cancer.
-
A register of SATCC approved training providers for salons, spas and therapists to further their cancer education.
-
A trusted source of inspiration, research & guidance for those scouring the internet
We confirm we have had regard to the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit.
Achievements and Performance
In this first period since establishing the charity the focus has been on establishing standards for training therapists, identifying and establishing a cadre of accredited training providers, and developing an easily accessible and useful website.
Financial Review
Expenditure in this period was kept to a bare minimum as no donations were accepted pending successful registration for GiftAid, achieved in March 2024. Actual income of £5,765 was received as a result of the charity providing some consultancy advice. Expenditure in the period totalling £11,056 was partly funded by an interest free loan of £10,000 (based on committed future donations) leaving a bank balance at the end of the period of £4,708.
Whilst technically in deficit at 30 June 2024, subsequent donations have enabled full repayment of the loan, and funded continuing expenditure. Based on continuing commitments of donations, combined with the expectation of generating income from annual subscriptions, the trustees are confident of the charity to continue as a going concern.
Structure
The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, governed by the trustees in accordance with the charity’s constitution.
All trustees are individuals who have been selected carefully to cover a range of skills and experience.
The trustees received no remuneration in the period and the charity has no employees, but does use some freelance administrative services.
