REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The trustees present their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)."

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives

The object of Scannappeal (the charity) as set out in the Deed of Variation dated 23 February 2012 is to promote the relief of sickness, in particular by the purchase, maintenance and other running expenses (including the training and salaries of staff) of medical equipment and associated facilities, as may be appropriate at the time of purchase. This may include the building of premises on a site within, adjoining or near to any hospital or health care delivery centre within Buckinghamshire and adjacent counties, designed to provide all the facilities required by the housing and operating of such equipment.The payment or application of funds shall only be made in or towards such of these objects as shall be exclusively charitable.

Public Benefit Statement

The trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when deciding what activities, the charity undertakes.

By providing funds to the Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust for the acquisition of advanced medical equipment the charity meets the public benefit requirement through this process. All members of the public within the catchment areas are equally likely to benefit from the investments made in new equipment.

Payments

Payments to Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust for equipment purchased amounted to £665,431 (2024: £288,433) during the year.

The advanced medical equipment for which the charity raises funds, guarantees that a current service can be enhanced, or a new service will be established. The equipment is used to diagnose and treat patients in Buckinghamshire and surrounding areas, and it is estimated that the use exceeds over 100,000 patients per year.

SCANNAPPEAL

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

Throughout 2024/25, Scannappeal continued to demonstrate the power of community support in advancing healthcare across Buckinghamshire NHS hospitals. While financial pressures within the charitable sector remain well documented, Scannappeal has demonstrated resilience and stability, maintaining strong performance through low operating costs and the commitment of a dedicated team of staff supported by 133 volunteers.

Our events programme flourished once again delivering over 34 events in the year, including many long-standing favourites returning alongside exciting new additions that broadened community engagement across the county. Our hospital bookshops continued to thrive, thanks to the dedication of our volunteer teams. Legacy giving and individual donations provided an invaluable source of income, while a renewed focus on corporate partnerships has further strengthened our reach and impact. We are delighted by the growing level of engagement, which supports our strategy for sustained growth in this area.

The year also saw continued collaboration with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust to identify and prioritise projects that deliver the greatest benefit to patients, ensuring funds are directed where they are needed most. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, Scannappeal was able to continue funding advanced diagnostic and imaging equipment that enhances patient care and supports innovation within local hospitals.

We are immensely grateful to everyone who contributed their time, energy, and generosity in support of our mission to enhance healthcare across Buckinghamshire.

Highlights from the year

From Keith Wilson, Scannappeal Chairman:

I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to Scannappeal this year. Our annual report reflects not only our commitment to transparency and good governance, but also the incredible generosity and support of our donors, volunteers, staff and trustees. Your dedication enables us to continue making a meaningful impact within the community of Buckinghamshire. Special thanks go to our amazing team in Amersham led by our fantastic leader and CEO Karen Shardlow, and for the whole team's diligence, professionalism and hard work. Their work ensures we remain accountable and focused on our mission and goals.

We are proud of what we've achieved together, and we look forward to building on this in the year ahead.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

Reserves are held in both designated funds for specific appeals and an undesignated fund. The trustees regularly review the reserves in order to ensure they are appropriate to allow the charity to meet current and long-term objectives of purchasing state of the art medical equipment. We hold three additional funds, the Sustainability Fund (reserves for 6 months), the IT Development Fund (IT infrastructure) and the Development Fund (legal and regulatory).

Designated and Restricted Funds

At year end, 31 March 2025, the Designated and Restricted Funds totalled £1,056,469 across nine projects:

The 'William Baxter Memorial Fund' was launched in memory of our late Chairman William Baxter CBE (please see full details of the fund in note 16). At the year end date, the project had not been identified or defined. A decision was made in November 2025 that the William Baxter Memorial Fund will be used in a new Cardiac Appeal with a target of £2 million to raise.

Undesignated Fund (General)

The Undesignated fund is used to meet any immediate/small project requests from Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust for funding, as well as supporting the designated appeals. Trustees seek new projects with the Trust so that these funds can be utilised and are mindful that funds received are for investment into advanced equipment.

The trustees consider equipment requests under £100,000 to be classed as small projects and will allow, with approval by the charity Bids Committee and trustees, for these items to be purchased from undesignated and Best for Bucks funds immediately.

At the trustees meetings current commitments and appeal totals are reviewed. When appropriate, the trustees may transfer funds between the undesignated fund and designated funds to meet objectives.

FUTURE PLANS

Scannappeal' s Trustees are progressing conversations on a possible merger with another Buckinghamshire based charity which would strengthen and broaden the charitable support for NHS hospitals and healthcare across Buckinghamshire.

A merger of the two charities would reflect our long-standing commitment to ensuring that patients and staff benefit from the very best state-of-the-art equipment, innovation, and environments. While discussions are ongoing, both organisations are approaching this collaboratively and with a clear focus on continuity for donors, volunteers, and staff. The project is progressing and it is anticipated that assets could potentially begin to transfer to the new merged charity in the spring of 2026, with the existing charity remaining in place to maintain the Scannappeal legacy for a period of time to be determined, but currently anticipated to be at least until early 2027.

Scannappeal will continue its day-to-day work and delivery of current appeals throughout this period, with any future developments focused on achieving the best charitable impact for both the current charity and the potential future merged charity.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

Page 4

Docusign Envelope ID: C79E6375-540D-4DE6-9D99-3333027785C4

SCANNAPPEAL

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The charity's trust is an unincorporated trust, constituted under a trust deed dated 2 March 1987 and is a registered charity, No. 296291. The charity was originally called Wycombe Imaging Appeal. A deed of variation, which is supplemental to the original deed, was created on 1 July 2002. This included a change of name to Scannappeal. A further deed of variation was created on 23 February 2012.

Management and administration

The day-to-day operation of the charity and the implementation of its strategy have been delegated to the CEO, supported by a small team based at our office at Amersham Hospital.

The charity has a core team of seven employees, including the CEO (six part-time and one full-time), equivalent to five full-time staff. We were pleased to introduce a paid Summer Internship, which proved highly successful during our busy summer months. Following a review of the skills required within the team and to support our ambition to grow income, particularly through corporate partnerships, the new role of Head of Corporate Partnerships was introduced in November 2024.

Volunteers

With the equivalent of over 870 days gifted to us this year, we are incredibly grateful to our wonderful team of volunteers, whose dedication remains one of our greatest strengths. Our hospital bookshops alone benefit from more than 3,000 hours of volunteer time each year. In addition, our event volunteers supported a record-breaking 34 events, contributing over 1,200 hours of their time. We are also thankful for often unseen support behind the scenes including administrative support provided by volunteers working alongside our fundraising team and those volunteers who make, bake and craft in aid of Scannappeal.

Trustees

The charity is controlled by the trustees. The trustees meet quarterly with the CEO to review the status of fundraising and the progress of the current appeals. Future appeals are considered after submissions from the relevant NHS representative. The financial position of the funds, and the charity overall, are reviewed based on quarterly accounts. Decisions are taken by the trustees at the meetings and recorded in minutes. Matters concerning fundraising and administration are passed to the CEO for implementation. To facilitate effective operations the CEO has authority, within terms of delegation approved by the trustees, for operational matters including fundraising, administration and employment.

Appointment of Trustees

Under the terms of the Trust Deeds, a maximum of 20 trustees may be appointed at any one time. New trustees are appointed by a unanimous resolution at a meeting of trustees.

New trustees are sought from the community on the basis of their ability to add value to Scannappeal and to maintain a balanced governing body.

Trustees may hold office for a period of five years and may be reappointed for further periods of three years thereafter by majority vote. The exception to this rule is that medical specialists, for whose department's funds are being raised, are normally appointed for the period of those appeals. New trustees meet with the Chair and CEO, including a visit to the office, to ensure a full understanding of the work of the charity is obtained. Each trustee is referred to the publication 'The Essential Trustee: What you need to know'. Trustees are also asked to self-certify that they are 'of fit and proper status' to be a trustee.

Related Parties

Risk Management

The charity raises funds from a wide range of sources, which reduces the risk of not meeting the appeal targets. There is no liability to meet these targets by the charity, since fundraising for equipment purchases are on a 'best efforts' basis. The charity takes out insurance to cover liability risks of the charity.

Insurance

The charity has taken out trustees Indemnity insurance cover in addition to Public and Employer liability insurance.

Investments

Cash funds are held with NatWest Bank Plc. The charity operates a current account that does not receive interest for the day to day transactions of the charity. Any surplus funds are transferred daily to a Special Interest-Bearing Account. Four (2024: three) further bank accounts are held with NatWest Bank Plc, Shawbrook Bank and Redwood Bank which are held to take advantage of better interest rates. There are no other significant assets.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). Including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF SCANNAPPEAL

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Scannappeal (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF SCANNAPPEAL

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following:

As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charity for fraud. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override.

Page 10

Docusign Envelope ID: C79E6375-540D-4DE6-9D99-3333027785C4

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF SCANNAPPEAL

We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charity operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and local tax legislation.

In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the charity's ability to operate.

Audit response to risks identified

As a result of performing the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members including internal specialists and significant component audit teams, and remained alert to any indications of fraud or noncompliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report

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. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

SCANNAPPEAL

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Scannappeal is an unincorporated trust, constituted under a Trust Deed dated 2 March 1987 and is a registered charity in England and Wales . The principal address of the charity is Amersham Hospital, Amersham, Buckinghamshire, HP7 0JD. The registered charity number is 296291.

The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are set out in the Deed of Variation dated 23 February 2012. This is to apply the Trust Fund towards the relief of sickness, in particular by the purchase, maintenance and other running expenses (including the training and salaries of staff) of medical equipment and associated facilities, as may be appropriate at the time of purchase. This may include the building of premises on a site within, adjoining or near to any hospital or health care delivery centre within Buckinghamshire and adjacent counties, designed to provide all the facilities required by the housing and operating of such equipment. The payment or application of funds shall only be made in or towards such of these objects as shall be exclusively charitable.

The presentation currency of these financial statements is Sterling (£), being the currency of the primary economic market in which the entity operates. All amounts in these financial statements have been rounded to the nearest pound unless stated otherwise.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going concern

The trustees have considered projections and budgets for the next twelve months in order to assess the charity's going concern status. Following this review, the trustees consider there to be little impact on the charity's ability to act as a going concern.

The trustees have considered the substantial net assets of the charity and the cash resources available as well as the funding possibilities and charity's commitments. The trustees consider that the charity has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements and therefore continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of income, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements. If in the future, such estimates and assumptions, which are based on the management's best judgment at the date of the financial statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the year in which the circumstances change.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

SCANNAPPEAL

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Income

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donations.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:

Grants are payable to the Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust for specific items of equipment on receipt of an invoice from the Trust. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is expensed once the grant is received by the recipient. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.

Grants authorised for payment to Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust which are subject to conditions that have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as at the statement of financial position date.

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity.

Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.

Staff have been apportioned in accordance with the duties to which they relate.

Stocks

The charity holds a small stock of Christmas cards. This stock is valued at the lower of cost and selling price less costs to complete and sell, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds, including designated funds, can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Fund accounting

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Financial instruments

The company has applied the provisions of Section 11 "Basic Financial Instruments" and Section 12 "Other Financial Instrument Issues" of FRS 102 to its financial statements.

Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

The charity had the following designated and restricted funds during the current year or prior year:

IT Improvement Fund (Designated) - The purpose of this fund is for the redesign and update of a brand new website, database, and IT infrastructure. A new database has been selected, and a project has now started to implement and go live by 1 April 2026.

Sustainability Fund (Designated) - The purpose of this fund is to support our sustainability and is based on 6 months operational cost.

Spinal Surgery Appeal (Designated and Restricted) - In April 2023, our £1.1 million Spinal Surgery Appeal was launched to fund three pieces of state-of-the-art equipment that together transform spinal care at Wycombe Hospital: the ExcelsiusGPS® Robotic Navigation Platform, the Joimax Endoscopic Spinal Surgery System, and a 3D C-Arm imaging unit. In January 2024 we authorised the purchase of the 3D C-Arm, and to accelerate patient access Scannappeal trustees agreed a five-year payment plan for the Robotic Navigation Platform. Both items were subsequently delivered, and robotic spinal surgery successfully began, placing Wycombe Hospital among only a handful of UK hospitals able to offer this highly precise, minimally invasive approach.

In 2024/25 further major progress was made, including the funding and delivery of the Joimax system to support the introduction of endoscopic spinal surgery. The spinal team begun performing endoscopic procedures, offering patients faster recovery and less invasive treatment options. Fundraising continues to support the payment plan for the robotic platform, and the designated fund reflects transfers from reserves used to seed-fund the appeal.

The designated fund reflects transfers made from undesignated reserves to seed-fund the appeal.

16. MOVEMENT IN FUNDS - continued

William Baxter Memorial Fund (Designated) - In March 2024 we launched a memorial fund in memory of our late Chairman William Baxter CBE. The fund has been set up to not only honour the memory of William, but also to continue his legacy of wanting to make a lasting impact on the hospitals in Bucks. William was committed to our vision of providing local patients with access to the best possible diagnostic and medical equipment available today, and our goal is that the memorial fund will enable us to have a strategic impact, on the provision of healthcare across Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS hospitals, for years to come.

In partnership with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, we will identify a project that best reflects William's passion for innovation. This project will encapsulate the values he held dear, focusing on innovative medical equipment to support diagnosis and treatment for as many people as possible.

Development Fund (Designated) - Funds set aside to cover legal costs related to due diligence, regulatory compliance, and review, supporting the charity's governance and risk management.

Cardiac Appeal (Restricted) - The Cardiac Appeal was launched to fund a dedicated cardiac ultrasound system capable of producing detailed, real-time moving images of the heart. This specialist equipment enables clinicians to assess cardiac structure and function in patients with coronary artery disease, valve disease, heart failure, congenital heart conditions and stroke. The system was successfully purchased in April 2024, ensuring earlier diagnosis and more precise treatment planning for local patients.

With the equipment now in place, the appeal has been completed and remaining underspent funds have been allocated to support the development of future cardiology initiatives at Wycombe Hospital. This work contributes directly to Scannappeal' s growing focus on improving local cardiac diagnostics and enhancing care for patients across Buckinghamshire.

Best for Bucks (Restricted) - Best For Bucks is a fund that enables Scannappeal to prepare for future equipment needs within our local NHS hospitals. New appeals will benefit from a stronger financial start, as well as allowing us to react quickly to often urgent needs to purchase lifesaving medical equipment straight away, benefiting local patients quicker.

By having funds readily available we can act immediately to put in place state of the art medical equipment, both funded directly from this appeal and also by utilising this fund to boost other Scannappeal specific equipment appeals towards completion. This medical equipment would otherwise not be funded by the NHS alone and can therefore be in place quicker, helping to diagnose and treat patients in Bucks faster, crucially helping to save more lives.

Clinicians working within Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust may apply for funding from Scannappeal for equipment which will either bring about a step change to an existing service for patients; or allow a new service to be introduced. Our aim is to ensure local hospitals are well equipped, enabling diagnosis and treatment to be accessible locally, including the repatriation of services which may not currently be available within our hospitals- we want the best for Bucks, in Bucks.

Lung Biopsy Appeal Fund (Restricted) - In October 2023 we launched a £150,000 Lung Cancer Biopsy Appeal to introduce the innovative use of Peripheral Navigational Bronchoscopy at Stoke Mandeville hospital. Navigational bronchoscopy is performed using the latest, advanced technology which works like a GPS system. A three-dimensional roadmap of the lungs is created which allows clinicians to reach much deeper into the lungs. Clinicians can access the most distant regions of the lungs to detect and biopsy even the smallest lesions. Currently these suspected cancers are difficult to biopsy and patients may be referred to hospitals outside of Bucks for biopsy, which could lead to a delay in diagnosis.

The £410,000 appeal will fund both the mammography machine and trailer to bring screening services across to those living in the south of the county.

Fund closed in comparative year

19. EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD

Scannappeal's trustees are progressing conversations on a possible merger with another Buckinghamshire based charity which would strengthen and broaden the charitable support for NHS hospitals and healthcare across Buckinghamshire.

A merger of the two charities would reflect the charity's long-standing commitment to ensuring that patients and staff benefit from the very best state-of-the-art equipment, innovation, and environments. While discussions are ongoing, both organisations are approaching this collaboratively and with a clear focus on continuity for donors, volunteers, and staff. The project is progressing and it is anticipated that assets could potentially begin to transfer to the new merged charity in the spring of 2026, with the existing charity remaining in place to maintain the Scannappeal legacy for a period of time to be determined, but currently anticipated to be at least until early 2027.

Scannappeal will continue its day-to-day work and delivery of current appeals throughout this period, with any future developments focused on achieving the best charitable impact for both the current charity and the potential future merged charity.

20. CONTINGENT ASSET

At the statement of financial position date, the charity had been informed of two legacies which have not been recognised in these financial statements on the basis that it does not meet the income recognition criteria as per the Charities SORP (FRS 102).

Based on the information available at the date of signing this report, it is not possible to make a reliable estimate of the fair value of one of these legacies with the other legacy being estimated at £10,000. It is anticipated that the income for these legacies will be recognised during the year ended 31 March 2026.
