REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. 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

The objectives of the charity are to relieve cancer patients, their family and friends, through the trauma, diagnosis and treatment of cancer by the provision of practical help and emotional support, and to further the knowledge and understanding of cancer, its treatment and its effects on individuals both clinically and psychologically.

Significant activities

In planning out activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings. Furthermore, any activities undertaken, or services delivered were carried out in accordance with HM Government's and NHS guidance around the need to protect and safeguard individuals from any threat including the re-occurrence of pandemics such as Coronavirus.

We are a local charity providing bespoke 1-2-1 practical and emotional support to cancer patients and those who care for them. Services include home to hospital transportation, counselling including bereavement counselling, complementary therapies, peer support groups, health and social activities, information & support services including prevention and befriending support. All services are delivered by a small number of paid employees and a dedicated team of 48 volunteers.

With the exception of the transport service, which is available to Dudley residents or those registered with a Dudley GP only, services are available to all cancer patients and those that care for them within the Dudley Metropolitan Borough and the surrounding areas of the Black Country.

Public benefit

The Trustees have complied with the duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission in respect of public benefit and in planning the activities for the year, have kept this in mind.

Volunteers

During the period the charity received help from the following number of people:

| 2025 |  |  | 2024 |

Administration and general |  |  | 11 |  |  | 18 |

Transport |  |  | 19 |  |  | 17 |

Therapy and counselling |  |  | 18 |  |  | 16 |

Additionally, during the financial year 2024 - 2025, charity received on-site volunteer support from 90 individuals working for Marston's Brewery who for one day during the period, helped to refurbish and re-decorate White House Cancer support premises.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Through commissioned service, the charity continues to receive financial support from the Black Country Integrated Care Services (ICS) and local Integrated Care Board (ICB) for the home to hospital transportation service. In addition, with funds received from the NHS/Black Country Mental Health Service through Dudley Talking Therapies Plus Programme, during the financial year, the charity received project funding to help relieve emotional pressure and to support the wellbeing of those affected by a cancer diagnosis. Furthermore, from the National Lottery funded initiative "Healthy Communities Together" we continued to receive funds to continue our work in addressing health inequalities in cancer services for various communities and in late March we were nationally recognised for this work, by winning with our Black Country Partners, the ICB/Macmillan Award "Going Above and Beyond" award. Further to this award, our Transport Volunteer Driver Services, won the runners up Team Award for Dudley borough.

Moving forward, both health inequalities and the provision of emotional support will continue to be a priority for the charity. Through existing achievements, we strive to receive further funds from NHS Commissioners to support the continuation of our existing work and services. During the next financial year, we will be developing and disseminating a consultation with both existing and new customers to ensure that all current services continue to meet the needs of customers and where necessary, depending upon the views of customers, will be will looking to develop both existing and potentially providing new services.

Where appropriate, we will continue to seek new and additional funds including the potential leasing out of the lower ground floor of the premises and in accordance with our objectives, all money raised will be used to provide continuous support to those affected by cancer.

GDPR and Data Processing

The charity's cloud-based customer relationship management database (CRM) continues to be fully operational and has significantly reduced the need to retain paper-based records. The system meets all national data protection requirements.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The funds of the charity at 31 March 2025 were as follows:

| £ |

General Fund (residue) |  | 133,783 |

Designated Fund (for improvements) |  | 225,000 |

Restricted Funds (various) |  | 31,818 |

Endowment Fund -(property) |  | 278,167 |

| 668,268 |

During the previous financial year the charity had a financial deficit linked primarily to continuous increases in the cost of living and particularly, the high cost of overheads for the charity and despite trying to seek additional funding from other sources including continuing to receive wide public support including, regular donations from individuals, legacies, corporations etc., we do envisage this situation to continue for some time to come. Additionally, amongst themselves, charities are experiencing greater competition for funds both locally and nationally and coupled with higher business costs such as increases to national insurance etc., greater demand in general on all services, the overall picture for all charities including White House Cancer Support remains challenging. Moving forward, the charity will continue to deliver on all current projects and will work with the ICB and other partners to meet demand where and when possible. Furthermore, we will continue to seek alternative funds or source alternative solutions to support the overall sustainability of the charity and the services it provides for those affected by cancer.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

The National Health Service continues to undergo many changes and challenges however, with respect to the commissioning of services, the focus continues to be centred on both system and place-based services with local services being procured and commissioned through the Black Country ICB on behalf of local people. Cancer continues to be one of the main priorities of the health service and although to date, by working with NHS and Voluntary Sector partners we have achieved many great outcomes, particularly with respect to raising awareness of both breast and lung cancers, locally there are various cancer priorities and much more work to do in respect of raising awareness of all cancers, screening opportunities and providing physical and emotional support for all communities continues. From a service perspective, White House Cancer Support transport services continues to receive an annual grant from the NHS plus, due to increasing demand for emotional support, NHS funding has been received in the financial year to help pay for our counselling service and due to the success of this project, we are hopefully that this funding will continue for the foreseeable future.

Additionally, we currently continue to receive funding from the Healthy Communities Together programme to help us in our fight to address health inequalities and again, much of the success of this project can be measured by the increasing number of people attending appointments and by the number of trained community and GP housed cancer champions, operating and supporting various communities across the borough and we are hopeful that due to the success of this work, more lottery funding through the Healthy Communities Together Programme will follow. Overall, the greatest supporters of White House Cancer Support continues to be the general public and local businesses living and operating in and around Dudley. Without their financial support we are in no doubt that the charity would struggle to continue to survive however, we recognise that the generosity of the public at large is only forthcoming because of the services and support the charity has and continues provides to the people of Dudley and beyond.

Investment policy and objectives

The Memorandum & Articles of Association for the charity authorise the trustees to make and hold investments using general funds of the charity. Accordingly, legacies received in recent years are invested through Brewin Dolphin, based in Birmingham, on behalf of the charity and its members, and continue to earn higher returns than would be gained through investing the funds with High Street Banks.

Reserves policy

It is board policy to attempt to maintain a cash reserve equivalent to at least a year's potential expenditure.

Going concern

The charity has no potential problems in continuing its activities in the medium term and has reserves available to meet and address any contingencies that may occur. It is envisaged that the cost of living impact and other threats either locally, nationally and internationally will continue to cause a crisis in funding for all charities including White House Cancer Support, particularly in respect of our investments and the amount the charity earn off these investments. The Board of Directors along with the Chief Executive Officer, will continue to monitor any potential threats.

FUTURE PLANS

In line with the charity's current business plan, where possible we will continue to diversify and expand service provision to meet client demand. Our contract for the transport service has recently been renewed by the Black Country ICB and we will continue to meet the requirements of this service. Due to the current success of our recent partnership with Dudley Talking Therapies Plus, we envisage the continuation of this service to help meet the emotional distress a cancer diagnosis can bring. Additionally, alongside NHS and voluntary sector colleagues, we will continue to work within the Healthy Communities Together project in order to address health inequalities for all communities. We will continue to assess the needs of both those affected by cancer and the suitability of White House services and premises to ensure we are meeting the needs of all.

17. | VOLUNTEERS

| The charity uses volunteers in the following areas:

| Transport

| Volunteer drivers provide transport services for cancer patients to take them to hospital appointments. Where possible patients get the same driver throughout their treatment to enable them to build a rapport and have a small, safe circle of support. All of the drivers have been affected by cancer in some way, which enables them to have a greater understanding and empathy to the concerns of the patients.

| Therapy and counselling

| Volunteers provide therapy and counselling services to cancer patients and their families. The emotional support service provides one-to-one support to those who need it. Complementary therapies are also offered alongside conventional treatments with the permission of the patients' GP.

| Administration and general

| Volunteers in this area provide a wide range of support services, including administration, peer support, fundraising and befriending calls.
