Love Po SCIO SC049472 ## Charity trustees ## Objectives and activities Love Po SCIO is a charity which donates gifts and experiences to those living with cancer; either currently receiving cancer treatment or received it in the last 12 months. The aim of the gifts and experiences is to put a smile on their face during a difficult time. Love Po allows eligible individuals to apply for gifts and experiences that suit them from the convenience of their own homes. Applicants can apply for: - Wee Gifts - Typically something small such as beauty vouchers or something to be enjoyed at home every two months. These gifts go to the first eligible person who applies. - Big Gifts - Includes weekend breaks etc every six months. This allows everyone a fair chance of getting what they want and allows the charity time to refresh our offering and source great new gifts and experiences. Love Po SCIO and friends of Love Po raise funds for the charity to operate through a variety of means. This could be through bake sales, raffles at events and various sponsored activities. These funds are used to purchase gifts and experiences that eligible individuals can request through our website and cover the operating costs of the charity. Love Po SCIO SC049472 ## Structure, governance and management Type of governing document Love Po is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO), registered in Scotland by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) under number SC049472. Love Po is governed in accordance with its SCIO constitution. The trustees ensure that the charity complies with the constitution. ## Trustee recruitment and appointment The current trustees are all individuals with the charities purpose close to their heart. Each of our trustees have a blend of different skills and experience which the charity benefits from. Their stewardship has allowed Love Po SCIO to have a successful first year and help a number of families whose lives have been impacted by cancer. There has been no recruitment of additional trustees in the year. Any new trustees appointed would need to have Love Po’s best interests at heart and add to the current trustee skillset. Love Po SCIO SC049472 ## Achievements and performance The focus of Love Po to 31 May 2025 was to continue to grow as a charity, increase the awareness of Love Po’s purpose and share more gifts and experiences with eligible individuals and their families. Notable milestones include: - Providing amazing gifts and experiences such as vouchers for: - Dishoom - Little Chartroom - Bodega - Tattu - Wagamama - And many more! - Since launch Love Po has now provided eligible individuals and their families over £6k worth of gifts and experiences.

All funds received were unrestricted in nature. ## Statement of the charity’s policy on reserves As at 31 May 2025, Love Po held unrestricted funds of £6,174 as reserves. Love Po is in the fortunate position of having very few recurring costs and the ability to operate without large expenditure if required. Love Po’s policy on reserves is to have enough to ensure the continued growth and financial security of the charity. Love Po SCIO SC049472 ## Future plans Looking to the future we continue to aim to grow the number of individuals that are supported by Love Po. We also want further increase the number of gifts and experiences we can offer to eligible applicants and deploy the money donated to us in the most efficient and helpful way possible. Over the last year we have begun to build partnerships with a number of local businesses which we will use to ensure there is a regular flow of new gifts and experiences available on our website. We aim to continue arranging fundraising events, offering a wider array of gifts and experiences to the people who rely on Love Po to put a smile on their face.

Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance
responsibilities Of with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) 2005 Act and the
trustees and examiner Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity trustees
consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (d) of the Accounts Regulations
does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section
44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts
examiner's statement Regulations. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the
charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks
explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken
do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, | do
not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner’s |, the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention
statement
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the
requirements:
* to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and
Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and
* _ to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with
Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations

2. towhich, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
