Achievements and performance

promising students addttional specialist tuition. Similady, we are
thanktul for the Whitaker Award that ￿lebrateS high standards in medical
art.
Summary ofthe maln
achlevements of the charlty
durlng the year
We have continued to maintsin and 8nhance MAET webstte which is
a valuable resou￿ fty students. slaff and visitors to the site.
The main achievement during this p8riod has been continuation of our
educational programmes ouuined in Section C. Also, thanges in systems
to enhance efficiency. ensure sustsinabilty and improve promotion and
éducalional experience. as follows:
1. Completion of a four-year stepped increase in officer fees lo bring
them in line with minimum wage. Previous fees were set in 1997
and had not been changed which, combined with a rise In student
numbers (from c. 5 up to c.15), had become an unreasonable
W0￿0a￿ expectation for currenl and fvture officers. Trustees
continue to assess fees on an annual basis.
2. Well managed and organi8ed handover of the Director of
Education role from Joanna Cameron to Catherine Bone. Joanna
has tsken the rde of Advanced Foundation Course Director, from
Jenny Halst8ad, and so her knowledge and commitment slays
with us. We are extremety thankful for Joanna's near 27 years of
dedication to the MAET.
3. We have received a generws donation of £4000 from The
Bedhampton Trust- we are calling it the Stanley Fund. To align
with the donorfs objectives. it is proFKssed that the ftjnds will
suppcwt projects such as patient leaflets. posters. or similar
materials that can be utilisod in care homes or the health service
system. Studenfs will benefit from real-world projects that can be
subsidised by the Stsnley Fund to ensure they come to fruition.
4. Acquired annual funding for. and pl￿ned, a 3D modelling
Workshop at King's College L0ndc￿. Professor Rhodes at his
lab in the Hodgkin Building. Guy s Campus. We are extremely
grateful to trustee Margot Ccrtjper, and Limbs and Things Ltd. who
are generously maknng an annual donation of £600 to fund this
initiative, and to Catherine Bone for designing and putling the day
inlo practice. The first session happened in Septsmber 2023..
5. We have begun migration of our administration systems to
Google Workspa¢e for non-profits. Google offer this free to
d￿ritieS and it provides a more se(wre and efficient system of
working and adminislration. This year a student database has
been built and a Workspace with shared resources has been
cr8ated. We envisage a one- or t￿year process for migration of
all and personnel io Gwle Workspace.
6. As part of our ongoing marketing plan. an MAET Facebook page
has been set up and is now actively promoting MAET activities
and engaging with ff*dical artists and the public.
Sincere thanks to the supervisors. volunteers, trust88s and committee
members for their absolute support and er￿Quragement in everylhing we
have done and lan.

Financial review
Brièf statement of the
harity's policy on reserves
The trustees endeavour to keep expenditure within income and not use
capital. The main finanrial risk is loss of funding from the investment
distributions and reduced course fee income. Reserves are held to cover
these losses should the situation arise. Where the trustees are confident
that we have SLrfficient fijnds they allow expenditure that ￿1[ progress our
activities.
