CANCER CARE AIYD HAEfvL4TOLOGY FUND STOKE MADEILLE HOSPITAL REPORT OF THE TRusfEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST IlL4RCH 2024 OBJECTIVES AND AcfIviTIES The trustces present their report with the financTal statements of the charity for the year ended 31 st March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provision of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Ststement of Recommended Pra¢tice applicable to charilies preparing their accounts in accordance with UK Genernlly Accepted Accounting Practice (UK GAAP). ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMAYI CE Charitable actii'ities The Cancer Care and Haematologj, Fund (CCHF) continues to provide financial support to the oncology and haematology services of the Buckinuhamshire Healthcare NHS Trust (BHf) in ways that enhance NHS provision, in line with the objectives of the charitsble trust: 'The relief of si¢knes5 amongst persons suffering from cancer or haematological disease in particular by the provision of a unit designed to offer ¢hemotherapy treaknent in pleasant surroundings". Overview ofthe year The CCHF has continued to fijnction smoothlv. has been well supportegl by staff. patients and lo¢al people and has worked closely with the hospital trust to deliver a number of iyorthivbile projects. Space within the hospital remains under pressure and workload hiJo . The original Cancer Care and Haematology Unit (CCHU) at Stoke Mandeville Hospltal, which was funded by CCHF. has now been tn use since 1999. With chaT]ges in practice, and weaT, there are areas i¥hich would benefit from redesign and renovation and discussions have started as to how the CCHF might support this. Management of cb8rity Seven trustees, meetinus ivere held this year. These are now held bimonthly. as 'in person, meetings but with the option to join 'online'. The group remains unchanged ex¢ept for the loss of Dr Joe Browning who has moved to a hospital onsultant post elsewhere. We thank Joe for the tirne be spent as a trustee and ivish him well in his new position. It is hoped that one of the recently appointed oncoloov or baetnatology consultants will replace him. It is recognised that representation froEn the younger generation of rnedical staff is essential for the future of the chartty. The CCHF remains fortunaie in having access, Ivithin the trustee body. to the wtde range of expertise necessary to Tun a charity of this size, and is working efficiently and smoothly. along '1th the support of two valuable volunteers. All give their time voluntarily, and bear most of theiT own support wsts, for which the CCHF is extremely grateful. Office space is retained within the CCHF to provide a base for meeting ivith staff. collecting post and some document Storage but the bulk of the chariry's Nvork has moved online ivith the digital storage of documents using 'One Drive,. This system is supported by extemal computer consultants. OMSUK Ltd. This necessitates additional costs but is essential to ensure tbe system WOTk5 reliably and safely and that the trustees have the digital support they need. The digital systems facilitate distance working and allow tbe charity to work more efficiently than with the more traditional model. This is especiatly important given the space issues within the CCHU. However, contact with the staff on a regular basis is still essentia] for maintaining the profile of the charity, keeping abreast of developments within the trust and making the CCHF available for the discussion of funding requests and other suggestions from staff. For enabling this, special thanks go to CCHF volunt¢er secretary Susan Harnian who attends the unit re¢rularly, collects donations, feeds back messages, and organises meetings and visits as necded from the chairnlan and other trustee5. Special thanks also go to a second volunteer. Chrls Lowe, who with his company Camfield Chapman Lowe Limited, has for many years provided an annual financial audit of the charity, free of charge. tn addition. Chris has kindly acted as a wise friend to the CCHF and we have been grateful on man> ocwions for his experience and expertise. Fundraising The CCHF continues to attract generous support from local people and patkents and their families and friends, encouraged by an active social media programme and also by the staff ivho are very supportive of the charity.. It is evident from letters received and from tslkino to donors and staff that mu¢h of the ndraising carried out and many of the donations CCHF receives. result from the excellent care which patients receive at BHT and the wish of supporters to give thanks to the staff and give something back to help future patients. The CCHF still has adequale reserves and can afford to spend generously on deserving projects. If the ambitious projects under discussion progress, a moTe specific fundraising prooramme might become necessary. A special fundraising thank you goes to the reception staff of the CCHU who regularly Set up sales. raffles and run a second-hand book st211, all of which publicises the charÉty and its work as well as brÈnging interest and pleasuTe to those attending the unit. Also, it would be hard for the CCHF to fun¢tion as well as it doe5 without their willine$S to take messages, hand out leafiets and accept donations on our behalf. Page I
CNCER CARE AND HAEMATOLOGY FUN'D STOKE MANDEI'ILLE HOSPITAL REPORT OF THE TRUrEEs FOR THE YEAR ENI DED 31ST MARCH 2024 Fundraising continued Ve have been fortunate in having three very generous charity Partners this year. hlccorniick UK, a large successful lo¢al business with a long tradition of charitable giving and volunteerin& Aylesbury Invitalion Pool League, who have a long history of fundraising in the area and Magdalen College School, based in Oxford but with a wide reach. Through AIPL. CCHF were put in touch with R H Amar. b&sed in High Wycornbe. who added their own very generous donalion. These contacts have proven very useful, not only becaw of the generous funds they have donated but in raising the profile of the charity among local people. Funding of Projects The digital chemotherapy pumps prop)sed last year were finally instsIled in July and proved very su¢¢essful. They provide an improved service for patients. and it is gratifving to See the support and the job satisfaction they give the nursing stsff who are now using state of the art equipment not widely available in a district general hospitsl. The option of extrd digital computing power h35 noi yet been adopted but remains a possibility which would require further CCHF funding. The CCHF is pleased to offer ongoing funding to the Cancer Inforniation and Wellbeing Team, based in CCHU, which ¢ontinues to develop innovative ways of providing their services throughout the Trust. The CCHF funds outreach meetings. large and small and closer to patients. homes, staff training. improved surroundings, and the funding of wigs foT patients undergoing chemotherapy. The major project this year h&$ been the commissionino and funding of a stand-aIone modular building adjacent to the CCHU to provide a home for the Cancer Inforrnation and Wellbeing team. It fr>rn)s an attractive. quiet. non-clinical and calm space for those going through difficult treatsnents. It will also free up some much-needed space within the main building. Given the crowded nature of the hospital site and the limited space available. this Project proved more complex than at first envisaged: but it is now in place. open and a valuable addition to the cancer service. As a small. flexible charity, the CCHF is able to respond quickly to requests and suggestions from stsff. Small pieces of equipmenL additional furniture and other small projects have been funded through the year: extra wheelchairs for outpatients, roll-away beds for the use of relattves staying on the wards with very sick relatives, furniture for staff coffee rooms, training courses not funded by BIif and maintenance and development of the garden. TVS in the haetnatology i501alioD side rooms on the inpatient ward are shortly to be replaced. funded by the CCHF. We continue to pursue some of the bigger more complex projects ivhich have been under discussion for some tiTne: additional chemotherdpy training posts and building WOTk to create outdoor space for haematology patients in isolation following intensive chemotherapy or bone maTrow transplants. by recommissioning a large balcony attached to the inpatienl ward. It is an ambition of the CCHF and the chemotherapy staff to renovate. and hopefully extend, the chemotherapy suite in CCHU. This ivould be a sizeable project and involve considerable project management work by the hospita] and is in the early stage5. STRUCTURE, GOVERYANCE AND .MANAGEMENT Governing dotument The original declaration of trust was made in Nlovember 1990. It is governed b>. a deed whT¢h was last amended on 2nd February 1998. Its objects are to carry out aclivities that provide for the r¢lief of sickness amongst persons suffering from cancer or haematological diseases in particular by the provision of a unit designed to offer chemotherapy in pleasant surroundings. Recruitment and appointment of new trustee5 An action plan for the CCHF was drawn up by the then acting chaIan. Helen Falcon, in early April 2021. after extensive one to one discussions with all the trustees and a review of the fjjnctioning of the charity- The final version 'as produced on 27104121. In response the following changes were introduced.. l. The Charitable deed was amended (08106121) to increase the possible number of trustees from 7 to I l. 2. A risk register was introduced. This is discussed at each full trustees meeting, risk5 highlighted, and actions recommended. 3. During the year Dr J Brovming resigned. 4. The trnstee group still iTJcludes a number of longstandin(v members who bring valuable experience to discussions. However, it is recognised that for the charity to remain relevant. and for it to have a future, it has to include those who are currently working in the field and who can help plan to the needs of the fvture.
