Sleep Apnoea Trust November 2024 Annual Trustees comments
Since the previous report, the Trust has had another successful year with a lot of work being done, some of it ‘behind the scenes’
We are delighted to welcome a new Committee member, David Petrie, who has extensive experience in Social Media. His expertise fills a substantial gap in experience on the Committee. We are also in conversation with another potential member who has a medical background.
As commented at the recent annual conference, all Committee members are actively involved in various activities, including publicity, website, answering patient queries, volunteering opportunities in sleep centres, liaising with other sleep related organisations, NICE, and looking after the Trust’s finances. A copy of the Trust’s financial statements can be seen below.
The financial model on which the Trust has worked for many years will, we believe, evolve somewhat over the next year or two. Having been dependent upon unpaid Committee members to carry out the vast majority of its work, since the last financial year end, the Trust has been notified of some substantial income which will allow us to pay for more assistance. We anticipate the Committee members will continue to be heavily involved, but as has been noted before, some members are of an age where assistance with some activities will be welcome.
Our excellent long term Managing Secretary Chris Rogers has not been well in the last few months, so providing additional support for him will be a priority.
It is clear that some Sleep Centres are suffering as a result of squeezed NHS resources and the Trust is actively involved in promoting the financial benefits to the NHS of providing a very cost effective program of treatment for Sleep Apnoea patients. The costs of failing to provide timely treatment are significant, to say nothing of the dangers of undiagnosed/treated sufferers in certain occupations.
In the coming year the Committee will do its best to continue support to Sleep Apnoea sufferers as set out in our Charitable Objectives
F W (Bill) Johnston Chairman.
