HIGHLIGHTS
Tiny Lives aims to ensure that all families being looked after by the Newcastle Neonatal Service at Newcastle RVI are able to access the practical and emotional support that they need through their neonatal journey, and that the babies are able to benefit from the highest standards of care leading to improved outcomes in their health and quality of life.
Please see below for some of highlights of the year ending March 2024.
2023/2024 has seen a continued increase in the levels of support and services provided to neonatal families, with more families than before accessing our services and support. Cost-of-living continues to directly affect neonatal families in the North-East and north Cumbria.
This year, Tiny Lives are proud to have supported the neonatal unit with a full refurbishment of the neonatal unit, to improve the overall atmosphere and comfort for families as they spend weeks or months on the unit with their baby, providing a more nurturing environment.
Request for emergency financial support directly related to time spent on the neonatal unit is up by 25% on the previous year (the previous highest ever need). More families than ever are accessing our post discharge services and we have increased the range of groups we are able to provide for neonatal families, to reduce help reduce isolation, increase confidence and provide opportunities for sharing of lived experience.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives
The objects of the charity are the relief and care of new babies and their mothers and families, in particular those looked after by the Newcastle Neonatal Service at the Royal Victoria Infirmary, Newcastle upon Tyne, by:
i) the provision of financial or other support for families
ii) the purchase of equipment
iii) the improvement of amenities, facilities, and services
iv) such other charitable means as the Trustees determine
v) promoting and advancing research that relates to babies and families under the care of the Newcastle Neonatal Service and to publish the useful results of such research
Our Vision:
Having a premature or sick baby can be one of the most difficult and life changing challenges a family experience. Tiny Lives is here to help ensure the best possible outcomes for babies and their families throughout their neonatal journey.
Our Mission:
Tiny Lives recognises that the neonatal journey is different for every family. For some, it may start during pregnancy and for some it may continue long after discharge. Tiny Lives supports babies and their families throughout this journey, particularly those who have been cared for by the neonatal service at the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Our Guiding Values:
Tiny Lives recognises that around every premature and unwell baby there is a family and families come in all forms and have many different needs. In order to enable the most positive outcomes for babies, we will work with families, neonatal professionals, supporters and other stakeholders to:
Engage - Reflect
Listen - Improve
Respond
Our Strategic Aims:
All families are able to access support for their emotional and mental health
We will support an environment that nurtures family relationships, promotes wellbeing and removes barriers
We will support an environment that delivers excellence in clinical care
We will be a sustainable and adaptive organisation with a focus on impact
The Trustees continue to ensure that charitable funding is allocated in line with the charitable objects and the aims and objectives within the 2019 – 2024 Strategic Plan. Areas of charitable funding allocated are outlined in our achievements below.
During this year, we have supported over 730 families with babies on the neonatal unit, and over 140 families with a variety of support activities post-discharge from the unit.
We have delivered a range of services for families once discharged home and trialled new groups including swimming classes and messy play groups as well as trialled existing groups in new areas to reach more families where they are.
The charity made a significant investment this year to fund the refurbishment of the neonatal unit. The clinical space has been transformed into a more nurturing and comforting area, designed to enhance the overall well-being and comfort of families with their premature or sick new-born baby.
Along with the refurbishment we have been able to fund more new initiatives this year including:
An online course on ‘Lactation after Bereavement’, for healthcare professionals to be able to help parents understand their lactation choices after baby loss
Activities to improve neonatal staff learning and development including
Supporting RVI staff to attend the leading hospital for FI Care and International FI Care conference, share knowledge and learning to improve care for families at the RVI
Purchase of 2 new iPads to improve neonatal training simulation activity for clinical staff whilst on the neonatal unit
Butterfly Hearts in Hands keyrings for families who experience baby loss in multiple births
Expressive writing workshop – a project with researchers from Northumbria University to explore potential wellbeing benefits of a range of expressive writing activities for neonatal families
A fridge/freezer for the family room to enable families to bring their own food to the unit, to help achieve a more healthy, varied and balanced diet, as well as reduce costs of eating at the hospital.
We have continued to fund a range of staff roles to provide enhanced support for families. This has included:
Clinical psychology support for both on unit and post-discharge
Neonatal Physiotherapy
Specialist Family Support Social Work
The charity has realised a financial deficit this year. This was a planned deficit by the Trustees of Tiny Lives utilising surplus from previous financial years. The deficit realised is smaller than budgeted due to exceptional fundraising performance, which has meant we have also been able to expand our services and support for families.
We have seen a continued increase in community and corporate fundraising. Tiny Lives is very grateful to everyone who has undertaken any fundraising activity for the charity, no matter how small or large.
As a result of the fundraising, we have seen another exceptional year, with another hugely successful charity ball. We would like to thank all of guests who attend our charity ball to make it the incredible event that it is, to ensure that Tiny Lives is able to continue to provide services for neonatal families.
The Board would also like to pass their thanks and appreciation to all Trusts and Foundations who have provided support to Tiny Lives this year, further details of which can be found in more detail in the notes to the accounts.
We have spent this year consulting with neonatal families, professionals and other stakeholders to inform and shape the development of a new charity strategy to be launched in 2024. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has contributed to this significant project which will help us improve our support and services for neonatal families in the North East and north Cumbria.
Tiny Lives does not receive any government funding and fundraising continues to be the principal source of the charity’s income.
Financial Position
Full details of our financial position can be found in the accompanying financial statements attached to this report. The statement of financial activities shows total incoming resources of £660,454, resulting in a deficit for the year of £46,915.
Designated funds have been utilised to develop new services and projects for the benefit of families.
Reserves policy
The Trustees have established a reserves policy to ensure the long-term sustainability and financial stability of the charity. This policy stipulates that the charity will maintain unrestricted reserves equivalent to at least six months' operating costs, which currently amounts to £210,525. The charity held unrestricted free reserves of £546,149 at 31 March 2024. When taking into account known factors, including designated funds, fixed assets, and contractual obligations, the balance of reserves is £282,223.
The reserves, designated funds and contracted commitments are reviewed annually in conjunction with the budgeting process, and adjustments are made as needed to reflect changes in the charity’s activities, funding environment, and risk profile. The Trustees believe that maintaining adequate reserves, designated funds and provisions for contractual obligations is essential to safeguard the charity’s ability to operate effectively and to provide continuity of services to our beneficiaries.
In 2024/2025, Tiny Lives will launch our new strategy. Tiny Lives heartland is in the North East, supporting families from across the North East and north Cumbria. Changes in maternity services and the needs of families who experience neonatal care has changed in the 10 years since the charity became independent. Our new strategy will set out how we aim to meet those needs over the next 5 years.
2024/2025 will see the charity continue to develop and deepen our support for families who spend time on the Newcastle Neonatal Service at the RVI. Alongside this, we will explore opportunities to strengthen support for families across the family health pathway, including fetal medicine and transitional care.
We will scope support for neonatal families across the geography of the Northern Neonatal Network, and establish opportunities to work in collaboration with others to provide appropriate support where it is less readily available. We will also begin to explore opportunities to engage with families who are under-represented within our services, including with families who do not speak English as a first language, bereaved families and young families.

Effective day to day management is delegated to the Chief Executive. Quarterly board meetings are held to discuss strategy and performance, and to consider funding applications.
Risk Management
The Board receive an update on risk at each meeting and review the risk register in detail annually, unless events dictate a more immediate detailed review. The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular the financial and operational risks, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to major risks.
The Board of Trustees have identified a risk related to succession planning for the role of Chair of Trustees. Due to exceptional circumstances, the Vice Chair stepped into the role of Chair during the year on a temporary basis. To accommodate this, the Board of Trustees have enacted an extension to his final term of service in 2024/2025 to ensure there is continuity for the charity during this period.
Staff reviews
Staff salaries are reviewed annually. Salaries for new posts are benchmarked against similar local charities.
Pay policy for senior staff

Related parties and co-operation with other organisations
Any connection between a trustee or senior manager of the charity with a supplier must be disclosed to the full board of trustees in the same way as any other contractual relationship with a related party. In the current year, no such related party transactions were reported.
The trustees, who are also the directors of The Tiny Lives Trust for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company Law 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 charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In accordance with the company's articles, a resolution proposing that Robson Laidler Accountants Limited be reappointed as auditor of the company will be put at a General Meeting.
The Trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Tiny Lives Trust (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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 Auditor's 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.
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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
the information given in the Trustees' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared, which includes the directors' report prepared for the purposes of company law, is consistent with the financial statements; and
the directors' report included within the Trustees' report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors' report included within the Trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Trustees' report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees' responsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they 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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
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 an auditor's report 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.
The risk of material misstatement due to error or fraud has been assessed in conjunction with how internal controls may mitigate any such risk. These controls are reviewed as part of the audit be performing systems walkthroughs to ensure they are operating effectively. Other substantive testing is also performed on all material balances and therefore any instances of non-compliance should be identified or considered as insignificant.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the audit engagement team;
• obtained an understanding of the nature of the industry and sector, including the legal and regulatory framework, in which the charity operates and how the charity complies with that legal and regulatory framework
• inquired with management and those charged with governance about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, including any know actual, suspected or alleged instances of fraud
• discussed with management and those charged with governance any non-compliance with laws and regulations and how fraud might occur including assessments of how and where the financial statements may be susceptible to fraud.
The risk of management override of controls was also considered an area of potential misstatement due to fraud. Audit procedures performed included testing of manual journal entries and other adjustments and evaluating the business rationale in relation to significant, unusual transactions and transactions entered into outside the normal course of business.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Raising funds
The Tiny Lives Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 19 Amethyst Road, Newcastle Business Park, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE4 7YL, United Kingdom.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Income from trading activities include income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Trustees' Report.
Investment income relates to interest earned through holding assets on deposit.
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs and administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and included project management carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings the have been allocated to the cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.
Expenditure is accounted for an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is 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.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure incurred.
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable activities. Where unconditional grants are offered the grant is recognised when they are awarded . Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is accrued when the conditions have been met.
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
