## **The Andrew Rodger Trust** ## **Trustees Annual Report April 2021/2022** Outline of the charity’s work – What we can provide; **1. Training programmes for generalists in palliative/ end of life care, based on GSF (Gold Standards Framework UK) .** **2. Research, evaluation studies and academic collaborations** **3. Spiritual and religious support and training** The trustees, who remain the same as last year, continue to explore how to support resource-poor countries particularly in Africa provide better care for people nearing the end of their lives. This builds upon the expertise and experience in this area of the UK’s Gold Standards Framework Centre (GSF ) in End of Life care , from its founder and Chairman Professor Keri Thomas OBE , seeking ways that this work , resources , energy and experience can be applied and adapted for work within the context of resource poor countries. The objective of this work in enabling ‘gold standard’ care for people nearing the end of life is broadly focussed on enabling and supporting generalists caring for people in any setting whilst working closely with palliative care specialists . The GSF training and resources aim to support frontline care providers to give better care for people in the last phase of life, to reduce the burden of care on over-pressed hospitals and enable a better experience of care and quality of life and quality of dying for those nearing the end of life. We work closely with those involved in palliative care in Africa, notably the African Palliative Care Association (APCA) , based in Kampala, Uganda, their Executive Director Dr Emmanuel Luyrika, Dr Christian Ntimizira, Executive Director of The Center of Research on End of Life Care, based in Kigali, Rwanda, through the APCA International Conference and webinar series , and others involved in palliative care there to map out potential collaborations and pilots in several African countries and possible development of a Palliative/Supportive care register of identified patients in one area that could lead to spread then in other African countries. Prof Keri Thomas received an invitation to speak at the APCA International Conference due in Aug 22, and there were discussions of offering small grants for early pilots , called ‘ Planning Early , Going for Gold’ pilots, working with interested palliative care leads . This would continue in 2022-3 onwards, with further details , application forms and supported training workshops on line . In July 2020 , the charity received £70k from the asset lock of the UK’s GSF Centre CIC , when it moved to become a subsidiary of Hospice UK. The charity has now developed a very comprehensive website www.gsfinternational.org.uk , through which examples from the UK , from Africa and from other countries can be shared , with access to training resources and the GSF Virtual Learning Zone . This will be the platform for further communication and development going forward. There is a description of the origin, history and purpose of the charity, see https://www.gsfinternational.org.uk/andrew-rodger-trust-charity and a ‘Just Giving’ button enables donations to the Andrew Rodger Trust . Some of the previous work is detailed in the GSF Africa section . https://www.gsfinternational.org.uk/gsf-africa **The Andrew Rodger Trust 1160141 Receipts and payments accounts CC16a For the period** Period start date Period end date **To from** 06/04/2021 05/04/2022 ## **Section A Receipts and payments** |**A1 Receipts**|**Unrestricted**
