REPORT OF THE TRusfEES (continued)
OBJECTIVES AND AcrivrrIE5 (CONTINUED)
Charitable activities
As the Charity ￿lebrate5 30 years of supportin9 families, I am pleased to report that our current
year has been even busier than last year, we have had over 40 new members join the Charty.
The* new members have found us as a result of our Awareness Week and also increasingly bEing
referred to us by physiotherapists treating the children. We attribute this increase In refe￿alS to
the very successful Study Day we held for theraysts at Coventry University Techno Centre thi5
year.
The deasion made by the Board of Trust&s to only host a Family Fun Day every years has
allowed the Charity to recoup some funds following the lockdown periryj.
Subscriptions remained fairly steady throughout the year. however, general donations were just
under £5,000 up on last yearfs figures. Total donations reduced by £11,500, but this was due to
some On￿Off prOj￿t-s￿C1fiC donations in the previous year. Whilst this rise in incoming general
funds was welcome, the organisation, like many others, found the surplus in(L)me wa5 soon
ex￿nded with the rising costs of produang the newsletter and higher tharges in general for
stationeryi telephone calls and intemet costs.
At the suggestson of one of the Trustees we trialled a new method of delivering the newsletter to
memtrErs, with members teing able to opt into an electronic version being sent at no cost to the
Charity. We have not yet seen the financial benefit of this. however, we are sure this will
reflected in next yearfs aco)unts.
We recruited a new Trustee, Stscey Prschard who has tsken on the role of Awareness and
Fundraising Co-ordinator. Sta￿Y has (reated a Tik Tik account for us to upload video content and
has re-vitslised our Instsgram offering- this has given the Charity a much-needed boost in our
Social Media presence.
The Charity was offe￿d the OPF()rtunity to work with Students from Queen Mary's University in
London. The students were tssked with identifying how the Charity could engage new memtrErs
and raise awareness of the condition and the Charity. Two groups of students wothed hard on the
project and delivered a Social Media strategy which we have formally adopted and we are
delighted to see eX￿lIent resuts with the combination of our new T￿5t￿ and the suggestions
from the students.
We continue to partner with several NHS Trusts treating the condition and have sent publications
to many more District Hospitals than previouslyi with more requests than ever before for our
information to disseminate to families and Health Gire Professionals.
My fellow Trustees and their partners have worked hard all year in supporting the Charity in
achieving our goals of SuppKJrt and Education, and l extend my huge thanks to them all for their
tireless efforts. Wrthout their support the Charity would not be as Suc￿sfUl as it is.
