Salus Fatigue Foundation Trustee Annual Report 2026

CHAIR’S OVERVIEW OF THE PERIOD ENDED 31st March 2026

I am pleased to present the Salus Fatigue Foundation (Salus) Annual Report and Accounts and to share highlights from the 2025/2026 financial year.

Salus has continued to deliver outstanding Health and Wellbeing Fatigue Management support, advice and education, helping to improve the lives of people affected by Chronic Fatigue. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to our dedicated staff team, Health Practitioners, volunteers, Trustees, partners and funders for their continued commitment and support.

Throughout the year, Salus staff, practitioners and volunteers have provided vital support to many vulnerable individuals, their families and carers. Our services have helped people to build confidence, find hope and develop new skills to better manage the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue. We have also continued to extend our support to individuals living with other long-term chronic health conditions where fatigue is a significant factor.

During the year, ongoing economic pressures — including the rising cost of living, high inflation and increased interest rates — have had a disproportionate impact on people living with disability and long-term illness. Many of our members have faced increasing difficulty in meeting basic living costs, particularly food and utilities. Salus has continued, as far as possible, to provide support and guidance to help people navigate these challenges.

We maintained our omni-channel approach to service delivery, providing both virtual and inperson sessions across Birmingham, alongside the continued use of our Wellbeing Hub to deliver online support and educational resources to a wider audience. Our services remain user-led, with continuous review and evaluation to ensure accessibility, choice and clear pathways for individuals to access the support they need.

This year has been another successful period in achieving our outcomes, supporting people affected by fatigue to live healthier, more active, independent and socially connected lives. Our reach has continued at both national and global levels. Our TEDx talk, first delivered in April 2020, has now received over 411,791 views as of March 2026.

The organisation has also continued to invest in its staff, supporting flexible home working alongside in-person delivery from community venues, and prioritising staff health and wellbeing.

After 16 years of dedicated service, the Board of Trustees and staff have made the difficult decision to close the Salus Fatigue Foundation. In recent years, and particularly over the last five years, it has become increasingly challenging to secure the funding required to sustain our services. As a result, the trustees believe it is now the appropriate time to bring the charity’s work to a close on 31 March 2026 .

In closing, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all Salus staff, volunteers and Trustees for their unwavering commitment and dedication over the past 16 years. Their work has made a lasting difference to the lives of many individuals and communities we have been privileged to serve.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE and MANAGEMENT

GOVERNING DOCUMENT

Salus Fatigue Foundation is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) registered with the Charity Commission on 7th May 2013 under charity number 1151924. It is governed by the Foundation Model Constitution and its only voting members are its charity trustees.

ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE

TRUSTEES

The charity Trustees are responsible for general control and management of the charity. The Trustees give their time freely and receive no remuneration or other financial benefits.

The Trustees meet as a body quarterly and are responsible for the strategy, general control, and management of the charity, taking decisions about what is to be done, how money is to be raised and spent. Amongst these responsibilities is that of identifying and managing any risks to the charity’s assets or to the efficient and safe undertaking of its responsibilities.

The existing Trustees are responsible for the recruitment of new Trustees in line with our governing document and the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) guidelines. Selection criteria for Trustee appointment is based on ensuring the right balance of the board based on past experiences, skills, knowledge, strong leadership, the understanding of good governance and individual and teamwork.

Following appointment, new Trustees are inducted into their role and are given copies of the trust deed, the Salus Strategic Plan, and Project Delivery Plans. They are made aware of the Policies and Procedures relating to the Charity. This ensures that new Trustees are aware of the scope of their responsibilities under the Charities Act.

EMPLOYED ROLES

Our funding was sought to enable Salus to continue offering our free services of support, advice and education through the Salus Community.

At the end of December 2025, the team consisted of:

VOLUNTEERS

We have a team of 10 volunteers that offer their support throughout our delivery services. They come with their own lived experiences to provide peer support to give hope and inspire our members.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Trustees have assessed the risks the charity faced with respect to the strategy and delivery plans and have identified the major areas of risk, the likelihood of these risks occurring, the impact and contingency plans to address them. These are monitored and reviewed regularly at the trustees’ meetings. The trustees are satisfied that systems are in place to manage the risks that have been identified.

We have sought independent HR support to advise on our staffing processes and policies. All of our policies and been independently reviewed and updated by BVSC in June 2023.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

OUR AIMS

OUR VISION

Our vision is a world in which every person affected by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgia Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) has access to positive support and the opportunity to participate in all aspects of life. The objects of the charity are set out in the charity’s trust deed and are as follows:

“To promote and protect the good health of people who live with Chronic Fatigue and related conditions, their families, friends and carers in particular but not exclusively through advice, support, counselling and educational workshops”

OUR MISSION

Salus Fatigue Foundation helps to improve peoples’ lives affected by Fatigue through taking positive steps together.

OUR AIM

We aim to address the needs of improved health and wellbeing and social participation of a large number of people who have encountered major life changes as a result of the range of issues and multiple disabling symptoms, from severe chronic fatigue, chronic pain to anxiety and depression caused by CFS/ME and related conditions. The social isolation, loss of employment, lack of confidence and self-management has a large impact on their and their families’ lives.

We have referred to the information contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. The trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

Our Purpose

We inspire people to live a happy and healthy life.

Our Values

Our Approach

Salus takes a five-step approach – we: share, understand, support, learn and engage. We believe that taking positive steps together is what matters, and this extends through everything we do from first contact all the way through peoples ongoing Journey to Wellness.

Salus Fatigue Foundation Trustee Annual Report 2026

WHAT WE DO

At Salus we inspire and share our compassion to make a positive difference to people’s lives who suffer and are affected by Fatigue. We work directly with individuals, and we know what our local communities need through our past work of almost 15years providing support, education, and awareness to 40,000 people. We help to improve people’s lives and build sustainable healthy and happy communities.

Nobody understands Fatigue like we do – we know that our work is needed more now than previously due peoples lives impacted by Long Covid. We are the perfect organisation to provide solutions for one of the key symptoms of long term Covid Fatigue. At Salus we provide a unique service, our team come from their own lived experience affected by Fatigue. The charity started from the CEO own lived experience of suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 2009.

Our services are open to all and this year we have continued to have a strong focus to extended our support to some of the hard to reach areas of Birmingham. We have provided support for individuals to healthy living, mental / physical health, encourage movement, feel socially connected and feel confident to live independently.

Key specific areas we have been focusing on:

Individuals who are affected by Fatigue through an illness
Individuals who need menopause support in and out of the workplace
Individuals who affected by Long Covid
Fatigue awareness, knowledge, and education within our local communities

OUR OBJECTIVES

Individuals affected by Fatigue will have improved health and wellbeing through access to online and face to face support / education to self-manage the condition.
Individuals affected by Fatigue will have reduced isolation as a result of engaging with online and face to face activities.
Through access to increased knowledge, communities of interest will have greater understanding of Fatigue Management.
Individuals will be informed and feel supported through engaging in community menopause workshops and events.

OUR ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Salus Fatigue Foundation Trustee Annual Report 2026

HOW OUR ACTIVITIES DELIVER PUBLIC BENEFIT

The charity carries out a range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims. The Trustees consider that these activities, summarised in the section below, provide benefit both to those who access our services directly, GPs, health professionals, clinicians, and the wider community of Birmingham and Solihull, and increasingly across the UK through our on-line and face to face support.

Our activities are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit and all our charitable activities during the period provided a much-needed range of advice and support for people (and their families, friends, and carers) with severe physical and psychological needs caused by ME/CFS and related conditions, who face a lack of resources to support their recovery or have fallen through the net of support systems from the NHS and other statutory bodies. The multiple disabling symptoms often result in people suffering from social isolation, loss of employment, lack of confidence and self-management. This has a huge impact on their and their families’ lives.

Our awareness raising work with GPs, health care professionals, stakeholders and communities of interest in the area is essential to improving understanding of this very misunderstood condition and ultimately to increasing the number of people referred to our services. All staff and volunteers have had the condition, or have supported people affected by it, ensuring that an immediate understanding and compassion is reached with everyone. This has shown to be critical not only in supporting members but also for educating health professionals, encouraging them to have increased confidence in diagnosing and referring for support.
