## **Report of the Trustees**
## **For The Year Ended 31 July 2024**
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 and aims**
Doing it for Daniel Foundation Foundation provides financial assistance for children and young people with a cancer diagnosis at the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow and The Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre by funding special gifts, experiences, days and holidays. We treat each application individually and support children in whatever way we can. We also support brain tumour research, particularly focusing on the childhood brain cancer DIPG.
## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE**
## **Charitable activities**
As we reflect on the past year with the completion of our third year accounts, we continue to be grateful to the many people, especially the young people, who have supported Doing it for Daniel Foundation. We held 2 large events this past year. The first was a ladies lunch at the Crowne Plaza Hotel which raised over £32,000. The second was our golf day at Turnberry which raised £36,000.
We continue to have many of our supporters raising money for us through their own events and fundraising activities. We are so grateful to all these individuals.
Our respite accommodation continues to be popular. Every week we welcome families dealing with childhood cancer who are very grateful to have a break away from home and treatment but close enough to Glasgow to return quickly to hospital if needed. We provide a welcome hamper of food for our families along with gift vouchers for local restaurants and activities. It is a privilege to meet these young people who are facing the most difficult of circumstances.
We have continued to support children and young adults with our gift and grant giving service. During this financial period we supported 72 applications. All our applications are through Young Lives v Cancer social workers based at The Beatson and The Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow. This is such an important part of the work we do and we feel it is especially important for the children and young adults with a terminal cancer diagnosis.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Reserves policy**
The capital account represents the funds arising from current operating results and the Trustees are satisfied that the level of reserves held are sufficient to meet all anticipated liabilities.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
During the coming year we plan to continue our gift giving service for any child being treated for cancer at The Beatson or The Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow.
We will also plan to continue to promote the Beach House especially with our partners in the Glasgow hospitals and online through our social media platforms and our website.
Our ladies lunch will take place in June at The Redhurst Hotel. This continues to be an important fundraiser for us.
Last year we raised our target of £21,000 for the high grade glioma laboratory at the Institute for Cancer Research In London. This marked Daniel's 21st birthday and was a fitting way to mark his special birthday. The scientists there carry out essential research to support new clinical trials for children in the UK with aggressive brain tumours like DMG/DIPG. We are in discussions as to the donation we would like to make this year for brain tumour research. It will be done at the time of Daniel's Birthday in May. We hope to make this an annual event.
We are continually grateful to all our supporters who help us make a small difference to the lives of children and young adults with all types of cancer.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Doing It For Daniel Foundation**
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 July 2024 set out on pages four to ten.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) 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 the independent examiner's report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. 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 seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :
- (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 to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
