The charity is an unincorporated association.
Trustees are appointed/re-appointed annually at the Annual General Meeting.
Objectives.
The charity's objects are the relief of 5ickne55, in particular through the provision of
equipment and services for the benefit of the patients of Stow Surgery not provided from
state funds or by statutory authorities.
Summary of the maln achlevements of the charlty durfn8 the year.
Over the last year FOSS has continued to fulfil its main aim of providing equipment and
services for the benefit of the patients of Stow Surgery. During the last year we have funded
the purchase of ten blood pressure monitors. Funds donated to the Surgery have continued
to be used by the Sur8ery to support the employment of the Acute Care Practitioner and will
do so for the next year.
As always, we are very grateful for the kind donations made to FOSS from patients. This year
we have received someverygenerous donations; Without such donationswe would be unable
to continue our support of the Surgery. A regular contribution to our funds is made by
Odditeas, a group who serve tea and cakes at Chastleton Church once a month during the
summer. During the year, we received cheques for over £6,000 from Odditeas. We very much

appreciate the donation made from this group and will be used towards the purchase of a
Doppler Ultrasound scanner next year.
The newsletter has been published three times this year. The content covers a wide range of
issue5 to do with the Surgery and the NHS in general. The committee would like to thank
Sophie Williams, the Practice Manager for the time and effort she spends providing the
newsletter content. The new51etter is emailed to 147 patient5, With 54 copies posted. Copies
of the newsletter are also available at the Surgery, the post office and the library. The copies
held at these 3 locations are soon snapped up.
