Flutter is 8 re￿Stered charity in Fiigland. Scotlaiid and Wales. nuniber 1208259.
This has significantly improved the operation of our small charity, enabling safe and
secure storage, and overall effective running of the charity day lo day. Furthermore, this
has provided a suitable area for preparation of our care bags and comfort cushions.
This move and rental costs have been possible due to a successful grant from Essex
Community Foundation through the Cancer Community Fund. A grant of which has been
hugety impactive lo the daily operation of Fluller.
This much needed space means Ihal our volunteers from local communities can come
together with a renewed sense of purpose and value. This includes our much-valued
sewing bees, who sew the cushion covers and care bags. They benefit enormously from
their volunteering aclivilies, stating il improves their wellbeing and mental health.
Many of our volunteers reside in rural communities, and some with disabilities, and their
involvement with FlJller has been instrumental in maintaining their overall health. Flutter
is now able to receive new volunteers and visitors. Our volunteers are now increasing as
we have the additional space to invite the much-needed help to Flutter.
Both patients and staff are incredibly grateful to our small charity. and this is
demonslraled in the emails that we receive thanking Flutter. Having larger premises lo
operate Flutter from has been productive. Flutter had outgrown the very small unil we
were previously operating from. and il was impossible to store products, and safely
utilise the space.
This had become incredibly challenging in so many ways. To now be able lo operate
efficiently and safely in our larger premises has ensured a safer and more productive
working environment. and a place where our volunteers can come together for friendship
and a sense of purpose. We know how important their connection and relationship is
with Team Fluller which has significantly contributed to the mental wellbeing of our
volunteers.
Since the project commenced, we have distributed 3440 Care Bags and Comfort
Cushions to kidney cancer patients throughout England, Scotland and Wales.
The impact that Flutter has, is demonstrated by the flow of messages and feedback from
clinical staff, patients and their loved ones. We regularly receive small monetary
donations via our GoFundMe page and emai15 requesting ways lo donate to ensure we
can continue providing kidney cancer patients with c8re bags and comfort cushions.
Flutter is fortunate to have two ambassadors supporting our worf<ings. Professor

Dated 01.08.2026

Royal Free hospital in London. Based at Mid Essex Trust. is Dr Karan Wadhwa who is
the other ambassador. Both are very big supporters of the Work Flutter undertakes and
active in such.
A compelling endorsement for the work of Flutter, is the statement made by both
consultants and clinical teams, that we are positively changing the treatment pathway for
those patients affected by kidney cancer.
Furthermore, this is demonslraled by the nurses who seek to fundraise by undertaking
innovative events to raise funds for whal we do, as they all see firslhand the benefits for
their patients.
We know already from the clinical nurse specialists Ihal the provision of care bags
enables positive dialogue lo begin between the CNS and their patient, and they report
that they learn so much about their patient. This assists them lo identify a suitable
roadmap for reassurance and dealing with any issues that may need lo be addressed,
that were not established previously.
Flutter continues to form relationships with other charities and companies. Small groups
of volunteers have also formed in communities, fundraising for the support we provide.
These groups provide companionship and a sense of purpose and are very much
valued.
Funding
Flutter continues to apply for essential funding grants, some of which have been
successful and this has been hugely impaclive on the great work that our sm811 charity
uqdert8kes in order to continue bringing a little brightness to kidney cancer patients.
We are currently on year 2 of a two-year grant from the Cancer Community Fund, which
has been invaluable and integral to our essential operations. Flutter has been successful
in its application to the National Lottery in July 2026, receiving a grant for of £19978.
Each grant is gratefully received, enabling Flutter to purchase and fO￿ard plan essential
purchases of products for the care bags, fabric. cushion inserts, printing. rental costs
and delivery fees lo the 37 hospitals, that to dale have received care bags and comfort
cushions to continue bringing a little brightness to kidney cancer patients. This remains
essential as there is limited support and awareness for patients affected by this type of
cancer.
As a small charity of volunteers. but with a national reach, we have found il necessary to
fundraise lo ensure that we can continue to operate lo provide support for kidney cancer
patients. This has taken place in the form of quiz nights, golf days and events arr8nged
by our supporters.

Volunteers
Fluller has a very small group of volunteers who are integral to its success. Our regular
sewing bees produce the care bags and comfort cushions that are distributed to kidney
cancer patients nationally. Small groups have formed in some communities who come
together to also create these items, and this has resulted in firm friendships 2nd
purpose. These groups are beneficial to the community, but also lo Flutter as a small
charity, and our patients.
Flutter has involvement with the local Chelmsford Ukrainian settlement group, and a
year ago, Flutter was introduced to Alla, who was sellling into the local area. In this lime

allendances at Flutter Ha. In her words, she describes the benefits of f￿endShiP and
support that this has provided to her, but also the opportunity to improve her English
skills.
