## **TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDING 5[th ] APRIL 2022** 

The trustees present their report along with financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5[th] April 2022.  The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 of the financial statements, complying with the charities constitution dated 25[th] April 1978 and amended on 1[st] February 1991 and 19[th] October 2010. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” issued in March 2005. 

The 2021-22 Accounts have been examined and approved as an accurate representation and review of our activities, fundraising and spend during this period. 

## **TRUSTEES** 

Trustees in office during this period and of this report are set out on page 3. 

## **FUNDRAISING AND FINANCE** 

## **Income** 

During the year under review members, staff, friends and relatives of patients raised a total of £42,129 in a variety of different ways, including sponsorship events and donations in memory of patients who have sadly died.  Normal fundraising activities were starting to resume as COVID restrictions were lifting towards the end of the accounting period.  Investment income was £13,960 and the unrealised gain on the COIF Investment Fund was £34,366, giving a total unrestricted income of £90,979.  We also received a £1,475 restricted donation from the estate of our previous Chair, Penne Sawford. 

## **Expenditure** 

The total unrestricted expenditure for the year ending 5[th] April 2022 was £33,374.   We spent a total of £27,796 on charitable activities, £2,480 on fundraising costs and governance costs of £3,098.  This resulted in a year end unrestricted surplus of £57,605. 

When added to the funds balance brought forward at 6[th] April 2021 of £383,686 this left us with a funds balance at 5[th] April 2022 of £489,816. 

The West London Kidney Patients’ Association (WLKPA) is a charity representing patients suffering from kidney conditions or failure who are treated by the Imperial Renal and Transplant Centre, together with their carers, families and friends. It is one of the largest kidney patient associations in England, representing around 6,000 people at any one time. It is run wholly by volunteers and has over 350 members. WLKPA works closely with the staff of the West London Renal and Transplant Centre, but is a completely independent body funded entirely by donations. 

## **The WLKPA seeks:** 

- To support and as appropriate act as an advocate for individual renal patients in West London 

- To maintain and improve the services provided for renal patients in West London 

- To work with National bodies representing renal patients to secure appropriate recognition of their needs by the NHS and other parties. 

- To advise and support the carers, families and friends of renal patients in West London 

- To support research into the treatment and management of patients with renal disease and failure

Flrst and foremost, we are on the patienvs slde. We wlll always seek to help any patient facing
difficulties or problems a5 a result of their condition. This rnay be as simple as talking to them aboLrt
what may be invow in dia￿15 or transplant or may involve working w￿h the Renal staff to address
partlcular problems and to make sure the patient gets the treatment arKI help they need. We are not
medical experts and we cannot take the place of the medical team- but we are all renal patients
ourselves, or have cared for someone wlth renal problAms. and we have a lot of practical experlence
we are hapF>V to share. We take part In diatysls and transplant conferences for patlents and thelr
carers and families: we produce newsletters and adv1￿, for example on diet. And very occasionally
we can help wlth small 8rnnts to meet p*iert< immediate needs. We also support patlents
partlclpatlng In ever￿ such as the Transplant Games. the NKF Confe￿nCe and other renal related
events.
In addition to pastoral and education support we also provth dlrect fundlng asslstsnce in the form of
purchase of equipment or materials for the Imperial Trust and associated units that endeavour to
Improve the patlent experfence durlng the course of thelr treatment. The fundlng Is provided In
response to requests made by both patients and Tntst staff. The year endlng 5 Aprll 2022 saw
continuation of the reduced nurn￿r of requests experIen￿d in 2020121, as a ￿Ult of the pressures
of cowf&19 on West London Renal Services. Our normal small capital grants contlnued to be less
$18nificant but we went on providing supportto the very overworked and pressurtsed stsff in the renal
service,
We ￿e always lookln8 for volunteers and resources. We fully appreclate the devastatln8 impart that
renal failure can have on patients and those around them and we are always grateful to those who
neverthele55 are wllllng to support the WLKPA artlvely, whether through furKlralsln& support for
patients, or as a trustee. The WLKPA provldes a ￿al opportunlty to make a difference; notjust for our
own treatment and support. for all those like us in West London and indeed across the country.
We would Ilke to thank all members of the commlttee for thelr hard work arNI asslstsnce In all our
endeavours throughout the year and to the event volunteers who support us In all of our fund raisin8
and awareness activltles t￿th at the hospital and in the wider communlty. We also would Ilke to
extend our gratltude to Professor Vassilios Papalois who has serrfed in the role of Patron for the last
6 years. HIS sUPPOrt and encouragement acro￿ the Trust Is greatly valued.
Flnally, at a tlme of on8olng p￿SUre withln the NHS. we would also Ilke to thank all the staff across
the Twst who help and a5slst the WLKPA and our patlent members ￿th dirertly and Indlrertly.
