## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The charitable company was formed on 22[nd] July 1998 with the intent to take over the Un-incorporated charitable activities, known as Bart’s City Life Savers, which had operated as a defined operation of the Special Trustees for St Bartholomew’s Hospital since 1986. In the event, financial responsibility remained with the Special Trustees until 1[st] July 2000 when the trustees of the company assumed control of the accumulated general reserves at that time of £83,641. The company is a registered charity. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

Trustees are appointed by the board in accordance with the Articles of Association 

## **Organisational Structure** 

The Chairman is responsible for managing and developing the activities, reporting to the board of trustees. An Operations Manager is responsible for co-ordinating the work of 6 assessors, 12 trainers and 8 trainee trainers, all of whom are part-time. 

In addition, a volunteer coordinator leads 2 mentors and 8 volunteers who support trainers by attending and assisting with demonstrations at training courses. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The principal activity and aim of BCLS is to reduce premature death in accordance with the guidelines of the Resuscitation Council (UK).  In summary “to give all Londoners the confidence and competence to save lives through training in resuscitation skills, education and research” 

## **Achievement and Performance** 

Our training numbers of 558 included 262 medical students, 89 corporate clients and 162 members of the general public. All of these were charged a competitive rate for their training and feedback was excellent. Of the remaining 45 individuals, for whom we received no funding, 12 were research patients and 33 were from City Hall.
