Section D Achievements and performance

The emergency measure of HOCl tablet supply to health workers Summary of the main continued but became less intensive demand subsided following the achievements of the charity reduction in Covid virus prevalence. The trust decided to sell our during the year remaining stock of HOCl generating tablets to provide an income stream, and this has had some success. The revision and development of the Trust’s website, initiated in 2022, continues. In order to clarify and more effectively define and communicate the ambitions of the Trust, time was spent developing new mission statements. The trust is now working to make a clearer statement in our public facing profile through our website. The Trust changed the site’s host service in 2022 and embarked on a redesign of its appearance and content. An additional web site resource was added by the provision of a “forum” which facilitates a dialogue between the Trust and interested parties on the science, use, action and applications of hypochlorous acid. The change and upgrade in web site resources has been successful and gives us enhanced interaction with both individuals and groups.

A change of banking provider was also initiated, with the intention of making more efficient use of the Trust’s financial resources, and to more effectively harmonise funding with new website content and operation. The Trust continues to hold weekly management meetings throughout the year via Zoom communication. These have proven to be most effective in the management of the Charity. A short break in the schedule was made at the time of the Trust Founder‘s (Charles Cocking) death in August. The Trust remains firmly committed to his vision. The first of what the Trust hopes will be a series of interviews with leading scientific voices was conducted. Further such interviews with HOCl Trust supporters and users is currently being planned to add as informative videos to our web site resources. The Trust continues to develop and maintain its status as an independent science based source of information on HOCl, and looks forward to further developments in the coming year.
