Prison Service Charity Fund - Annual Report 2022

Chair’s Opening Message

Good afternoon, may I start by thanking you all not only for attending today, but also for the work you have done supporting the PSCF during 2022, in what has been another difficult year.

In December I was invited to HMP Lincoln for their Well-being Day and considering how the staff have coped with limited time, resources and regime restrictions over the last few years, they have still managed to raise money for various charities and I am proud we were able to further assist the staff in reaching their fund raising targets.

2022 has been a very challenging year for your committee having to restructure all our roles, whilst changing banks in order to make sure our payment systems were more reliable when paying out our awards. We apologise to those who were sent cheques, to only to have problems with our original bank HSBC. I have no doubt that our Secretary and Treasurer will comment further in their reports. I want to thank both John and Phil for the many hours they both have put in to deal with this and many other problems.

Continuing with the restructure, to allow your committee to carry out their roles safely, we had to renew our computer systems and update certain software. Also In the winter months, thanks to Sara we now have our own “Teams system”, so we can host our monthly meetings without having to travel.

In addition, Emily and Sara organised our own “Twitter” account for the PSCF, which has enabled our charity to reach a far wider number of Staff and Prisons, with present day events and news on the network. This has already raised our profile with enquiries about membership. For this, I Want to thank them both for their work on this project over this last year.

Our meetings have been enjoyable and lively to say the least and that is because of the input by Vicki, Sara, Emily and Denise, for their continuous and tireless work in their establishments and within their communities, thus bringing new challenges to all the committee to act in this time of a cost of living crisis. I am proud of this committee on how we have picked up so well after the loss of Bob and Peter, who served over 30 years with us on the PSCF.

One challenge we all agreed on was for the committee to help our less well off struggling with the present crisis, ranging from elderly patients in hospital, to various food banks, where mental health plays a big part, to community projects supplying warm bedding, a cancer charity and schools giving books to children, but we were only able to achieve this goal because the PSCF were left a legacy in a Will and therefore no members monthly donations were used, so rather than have leave this money in the bank, we hope you all agree on our decision to utilise it this way. Unexpected Special Donations, mean so much !

Finally, to repeat again it is good to have your continued support and long may this continue. To the committee, well done in the hurdles we have had to cope with during 2022 and overall, despite a tragic start, it has turned out to be a very good year. Thank you.

Prison Service Charity Fund - Annual Report 2022

Committee’s Report

Good afternoon one and all, welcome again to the Prison Service Charity Fund’s Annual General Meeting, reporting on the events of 2022.

We hope you find our AGM to be a relaxed, interesting and an informative one. As we progress through it, if you have any comments you wish to raise, please do interrupt us, as we always appreciate your constructive input.

Springbridge Riding School for the Disabled has been our venue now for a good many years, mainly because of it’s central location and not forgetting its wonderful setting, so we would like to thank our hosts, Linda, Jane and Dennis and Bob, for accommodating us again and making us most welcome.

Before moving on, at this point I think we would all like to pay tribute and say how sorry we are to here of the passing of Harry.

Harry contracted a bout of colic in January and had to be put to sleep. He was 30 years old and was Springbridge’s show horse, who won rosette’s all around the country.

For those of us, especially the young ones that have attended our AGM on a regular basis, Harry will be sorely missed and our thoughts go out to all the Springbridge family.

After steering our way through the pandemic years, your committee were preparing themselves for a busy 2022 and the return to some sort of normality, but the first two months were not to be.

We cannot forget the passing of our former Chair, Peter Mcfall on the 3/1/22, followed by our former Secretary/ Treasurer, Bob Howard on the 21/2/22. Our thoughts are still with you gents, one year on and of course not forgetting Cathy Smith, the third founder member we lost the previous November.

That said, we now move on to actual events of 2022, starting in January. We received eight appeals for ten charities, which is not a bad start to the new year. The startling statistic here is, five of the appeals relate to members of staff or close family passing away just before Christmas, but as is normal in cases like this, many hundreds of pounds were raised by colleagues at establishments around the Country, supported further by your fund.

February was a little quieter, but one of the appeals received from a member of staff, who was not a member and had raised no funds, but wanted our assistance for her cat that required specialist treatment for cancer. Whist we are totally sympathetic to the cause, our criteria does not cover animal welfare and as such was rejected. That said, another appeal received in February was for the Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. We are highlighting this appeal, to draw the difference between these two animal appeals. The second one is a medical aid for a person who cannot hear, which fits our criteria, whereas the first one is directly aimed at a specific animal.

March was even quieter with only five appeals, but we would like to draw your attention to two of them. The first one is an appeal asking us to support an individual for respite care. Over the course of 2022, your Committee received numerous appeals to send individuals and their families on a respite holiday, after suffering the most tragic of circumstances. Whilst we fully support respite holidays, we would like to point out that each appeal is a one off donation. However, there are certain other circumstances, whereby for example, a family might be making memories before a death of a loved one, in which case providing funds have been raised, more than one appeal can be submitted.

The second appeal we would like to highlight, is a charity called “Refuge”. We have for quite sometime declined to assist this charity, because it’s primary concern is assisting women, children and in certain circumstances men, with their social, welfare and domestic issues, which that alone does not fit our criteria. However, as the cost of living crisis started to hit home, later in this reporting year, your committee found that those in need of “Refuge”, had Mental Health concerns and so we decided towards the end of the year to support any future appeals for Refuge.

We as a committee are trusted with members monthly donations, so we consider very carefully every appeal and charity. Consequently, sometimes we do change our decisions on how or if we can support a certain charity. Refuge is one of them and we hope you agree with us.

At the beginning of March, we received a cheque from a solicitor, which was for a bequeathed donation from an ex member of staff who previously worked at Gloucester Prison, which unfortunately has been closed for some time. With this type of donation, if we can, we try and donate back to a charity related to the prison or area concerned, but in this case we couldn’t, so in memory of Bob Howard, we added it to the donations collected at his funeral and supported his charity, the ALD Club. Again we hope you agree with our decisions.

Also in March, another bequeathed donation, again totally unexpected but this time a much larger amount involved. A share of just under seven hundred thousand to be precise !

More will be explained a little later in the proceedings.

We couldn’t end this month, without mentioning King Felix, who sadly passed away at the end of March.

Felix was such a happy young lad and we have fond memories of his attendance at our AGM’s.

One year on, our thoughts are still with you King Felix.

Moving onto events in April. It was good to see the appeals on the increase, but there is one in particular worthy of a mention. Abbie’s Fund, which was set up by Abbie’s parents, to provide Memory Boxes containing no less than fifteen sentimental items, for their local hospital in Hull, where Abbie was born sleeping in October 2010. Fund raising has continued on since then.

This is obviously a Charity very close to the hearts of staff at HMP Humber and when we received this appeal, the fund raising had started at least two years prior, but because of the pandemic was not submitted to us until now. A substantial amount of money was raised, ably supported by an equal amount from your fund.

The month of May was even busier, which was great to see, but many of the appeals were for major charities, for example Cancer Research UK, Prostate Cancer UK, British Heart Foundation, to name three. We highlight these, just to remind you that part of our criteria there is a maximum limit of £500 for any National Charity. In the same vein, we received an appeal from someone who went on an organised trek along the Great Wall of China, raising funds for a local Hospice in the North East. Again, any treks abroad have the same maximum, because a large part of the fund raising goes towards air fares and hotels, which is not what members monthly donations are used for.

Also in May, we received a lovely letter from Ronald McDonald House Children’s Hospice in Manchester, thanking the Staff at HMP/YOI Hindley and the PSCF, for raising enough money to fund one bedroom for a whole year and the entire House for a day.

This is a great example of what your fund is all about and we’re sure it will continue for a good many years to come. Well done to all involved.

May was also a memorable month and a first in the 33 year history of the PSCF. We awarded two Honorary Life Memberships. The first one to our ex Chair Nevil Joseph OBE, who is in his 91st year and was a founder member of the PSCF. The second was awarded to Michael Flynn, whose association with the PSCF stems back many years and has not only been a Rep, but has served as a committee member as well. He was presented with his award at a surprise full staff meeting at Liverpool Prison, by our very own Treasurer Phil Boardman.

June was the busiest month of the year so far, with fifteen appeals, but like the previous month, many were for major charities and whilst we will always support these, it is always nice to receive appeals of a more local or individual nature, one being the Northumbria Blood Bikes, providing a vital service delivering emergency blood supplies to Hospitals in the North East, but latterly joining up with other areas providing a Blood Bike service and the Great North Air Ambulance, which your fund have supported for a good many years now. The second local appeal this month came from our Vice Chair Denise, who was raising funds for Rosemere Cancer Foundation, a charity with close personal connections to Denise. Again your fund further supported the Charity with a generous donation.

Prison Service Charity Fund - Annual Report 2022

We received an enquiry from our friends at Cookham Wood, who were raising funds for the Ukraine Ambulance appeal. We are all aware of the ongoing conflict and the destruction being caused between these two Countries, but this is a convenient reminder, that we have to protect the funds of the PSCF and part of our criteria states all our funds remain in this country and unfortunately on this occasion we were unable to assist with this appeal.

Finally for this month, with our new committee all settling in, the PSCF came into the 21st century, with the introduction of Twitter, which was set up by Sara and Emily. Our thanks to you both, it has certainly raised your charity’s profile, net working with other establishments.

July was a little quieter, with a further ten appeals, one of them being for the Broughton Veteran Care Village. This is a home in the North West for ex Service men and women, with varying degrees of disability, from dementia to respite care and one fully supported by your fund.

Your Committee are always aware of changes in our way of living and it was no more apparent when the cost of living crisis started to hit home and so your committee had a big discussion on whether we could support Food Banks, as these were now taking a big part in many people’s daily lives, especially when we heard Prison staff were using them. But it wasn’t just that, people using Food Banks we found, were suffering both mental and physical health problems. This was reflected in our decision, that we could support Food Banks and it came within our criteria. We hope you agree with us.

Like June, August was a very busy month, also receiving fifteen appeals and again a fair few of them, were for major charities, but there is one of interest from our colleagues at HMP Long Lartin. The Charity, “Turning a Gear for 3 with no fear”. A group of 45 cyclists, headed by Dave Williams, Custodial Manager at Long Lartin, cycled 115 miles from Cardiff to Evesham, raising funds for three Charities, Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice for Wales, The Grand Appeal and a PEI from Long Lartin, diagnosed with terminal cancer. £2000 was raised for the three charities and this was further supported with another £2000 from your fund. Three completely different charities, all worthy of a mention and from an establishment we don’t hear much from.

Also on the cycling theme, staff at Moorland did a two day challenge to cycle to every Prison in South, East and West Yorkshire, totalling 240 miles, for Dementia UK. A substantial amount of funds were raised, with a further donation from your fund.

A third and somewhat unusual appeal came in from the North East Area Office, who were raising funds for

Andy’s Man Club. This is a Charity set up specifically for men suffering from Mental Health problems and it’s a club, men can go to discuss their concerns with like minded men. Again this was fully supported by your fund.

September was a quiet month for appeals, with five of the seven being for Respite holidays. This is of a very sensitive nature, because four of the five were from family members who want to make memories, before the inevitable happens.

We touched on this earlier in the report, where more than one appeal can be made, whilst the individual is still with us.

We received an enquiry for a charity being set up by Prison Dog Handlers, called Tired Paws. Whilst this does have a Prison connection, unfortunately it is not medically based, like for example Guide dogs for the Blind and so we explained our situation and was accepted by the Dog Handlers.

With the introduction of Twitter earlier in the year, it was nice to receive an enquiry through our Twitter account from an officer at HMP Maidstone Prison Officers Football Club. They were raising funds for numerous charities which fitted our criteria. Having made the initial contact and had the offer of a new Representative, along with quite a few new members, we have unfortunately heard nothing from them since. We don’t now why, it’s a shame because the South East is one area we would like to hear more from.

Also this month, we received notification that our Representative at Full Sutton Peter Thompson, is handing over the reins, after being our Rep. for several years. We would like to put on record, our thanks for the work Peter has done in raising our profile at Full Sutton.

October was a busy month, with sixteen appeals, fifteen of them from either the North West or North East establishments. Whilst we don’t mind where the appeals come from, it is always a pleasure to receive appeals or enquiries from the South of the country or Wales, where we would imagine a good deal of fund raising takes place, but not involving your fund.

Three of your Committee Ken, Sara and Vicki, attended the PGA Conference between the tenth and twelfth of October. This again proved well worth while attending, with many high profile contacts made, at least twenty six, many Governing Governors and a fair few new members signed up by the trio. The wider picture is we have new Representatives at several establishments, which in turn lead to the raising of our profile and more new members. Our thanks go to James Bryant at the

PGA, for the invites. Their charity was Dementia UK, which was fully supported by your fund.

Towards the end of September and the beginning of October, the big launch of a brand new Ambulance named “The Forever Florence”, for the charity Daft As A Brush happened. This was three years in the making, with the first appearance being at St. Godric’s R. C. Primary School, where the pupils did all the artwork for the ambulance. The second part of the launch was at HMP Frankland. This is where the bulk of the fund raising happened, twenty seven thousand to be precise, with the highlight of the fundraising coming from a charity event by five Officers from Frankland, performing the Full Monty. It was an eyeful, to say the least ! Of course your fund contributed quite considerably as well. There is a full story and photos further on in the report.

November was again a busy month for appeals, supporting many major national Charities. Again, like earlier in the report, we cannot stress enough the cap we have on these Charities. Bearing in mind that most months we receive more than one appeal from major Charities, again examples being MacMillan, Dementia and Parkinson’s, to name another three, all receiving thousands each month, unlike smaller more local Charities and individuals, hence the reason why we have our cap of £500 for National Charities.

Not to dissuade anyone from raising funds for these Charities, but we always like to support our more local and individual Charities and we hope you agree with our decision.

So we come to December, another hectic year nearly over, but finishing with a flourish, sixteen appeals received, again a mixture of both National, local and individual appeals.

A very important event took place on the 9th December and that was a visit to the Memorial Garden inside Liverpool Prison. Plaques are on display remembering the lives of Staff that worked at the Prison who have sadly passed away. This included Bob, Peter and Cath, our three founder members.

Another decision your Committee made was to make Special Christmas donations to the less well off at Christmastime, ranging from assisting the elderly in hospital, disadvantaged children in Schools, to Food Banks where people attending have big Mental Health concerns. In addition we assisted the Homeless with blankets.

None of the funding for these Special Donations came from members monthly donations, but from bequeathed donations left to your fund, by ex members of staff in their Wills and we are extremely grateful to those, for thinking of your fund and for us to be able to support those suffering hardship during this cost of living crisis. Thank you.

Finally, your Committee would like to say thank you to John’s Son Ian at Potts Print UK, for printing this report free of charge, along with vastly reduced pricing for all our stationery.

To the various establishments providing your fund with the freebies on show today.

Also the establishments that have Invited the Committee to their Wellbeing Days.

Three members of staff, Michael Gilchrist, Howard Masters and Graham Chapman, all of whom have signed up hundreds of new members between them, to the fund. Thank you all.

Finally to you the membership, without which there would be no Prison Service Charity Fund. Thank you from all the Committee and we can honestly state, your fund is in very safe hands.

Springbridge Driving for the Disabled - A Volunteers View

It is a privilege to write this article on Springbridge Carriage Driving for the Disabled. Volunteering at the stables and meeting Linda, Dennis, Jane, and Bob has been a truly humbling experience. The four of them had a collective vision to create a top-class RDA centre and it is clear they have achieved this and much more. In addition to the physical centre, the stables, and buildings, they have created a large caring community that continues to touch the lives of many individuals and families. The creation and continued maintenance of the centre depends on their dedication and much intense physical work, and they can be found at the stables seven days a week.

The horses at the centre are so well looked after and they have the very best of everything, lovely large stables, food, and the ability to play on the large expanse of fields. It is comical to watch them come to the gate and ensure that the team know that they want to come in and go back to their stables. It is so funny to watch the horses when it is time for them to be fed their hot mash, which is served daily at the same time, if there is the slightest delay, they make sure it is known!

The incredible condition of the horses is a tribute to them and they always say, “only the very best for these horses”. The volunteers always joke that if we were to die and come back, we would like to return as one of the horses at Springbridge.

The horses are exceptionally well trained and they ensure that each horse has gone through rigorous training and are tested by the Disabled Association to ensure that they are safe to be used with their disabled passengers. The love that they have for the horses and how well they are treated is a joy to witness.

It has been a pleasure for myself, my husband, and my son to spend time volunteering at Springbridge. The team, volunteers, horses and everyone are excited to get the horses and carriages ready for the disabled participants. It is a very professional process overseen by the team with extensive detail given to checking and then double checking that the carriages and horses are in good shape and ready to drive.

It is such a joy and privilege to be on the carriage with the disabled participants. There is a lot of fun as we drive participants on the carriages. The passers-by adult and children alike wave with delight. It is a pleasure to witness the sheer pleasure that the disabled participants get from the experience. Many have been coming for many years and the carers have said it is one of the most special times for them in the week.

The families and carers also enjoy coming to the centre. The centre has beautiful flowers and trees, and it really is a magical place. Often family members who have a disabled adult/ child will stop in for a coffee and a chat. Many of the family members have said to me how important it is for them that the team know and care about their adult/ child. It is a sanctuary for them, their family, and carers.

However, it costs a lot of money to keep the centre running.

In addition to running the centre the team spend a significant amount of time raising the funds that underpin the financial requirements of the centre. They have two main fund-raising events, the Summer Dog Show and the Christmas event. For Christmas the barn is turned into a Christmas fairyland with a grotto complete with Father Christmas, and elves. In addition, for the disabled participants that do not like to be in places with too much noise they provide separate quieter times when the grotto can be visited. To pull these events together takes months of preparation and the success of the events lies on the shoulders of Linda, Jane, Dennis, and Bob. The volunteers help, but the leadership comes from the four of them.

It is difficult to convey in words what an incredible team they are. I, my husband, and my son have been volunteering for over a year and the dedication, professionalism and care to the disabled participants, their extended families and carers is incredible. They have been doing this for over 20 years and it would be impossible to count how many people have benefited from their kindness, care, and dedication.

I would like to thank you and the members of the Prison Service Charity Fund for your continued support for Springbridge Carriage Driving for the Disabled that you have provided.

Your continued support for the charity is greatly appreciated .

Best wishes

Elaine (Volunteer)

Prison Service Charity Fund - Annual Report 2022

Treasurer’s Report

This is my first annual treasurers report having taken on the role of treasurer in April 2022 following the death of Bob Howard our former Secretary and Treasurer. I want to pay tribute to Bob who left all our financial affairs in good order, which won’t be a surprise for those of us who knew him. I would also like to recognise the immense volume of work that he undertook on behalf of the PSCF, he was not only the Treasurer he was also the Secretary and both roles have demanded a significant amount of time for myself and John White our current Secretary, so I really don’t know how Bob managed both roles.

Turning to our finances. Our income from appeals and donations was up by £12,000 on the previous year to £140,000. The donations we made increased by £6,000. Other expenditure was increased, this in part is due to the expenses incurred in reorganising the Committee following the deaths of Peter and Bob and increased cost of living. Our current membership stands at 5418 members.

Overall, our assets have decreased by £19,603 although this includes a £33,000 reduction in the value of investments which is based on the value of our shares during a turbulent year for the markets.

At the year end, the charity had unrestricted reserves of £1,066,840 .

Since the establishment of the Charity, we have banked with HSBC, however, last year they started to bounce cheques randomly for no apparent reason. Despite our best endeavours, we were unable to prevent this from happening, which meant that we took the decision to open a new bank account in August 2022 with the Metro Bank in Liverpool. Our intention is to move all of our business to Metro Bank. However, this is not straight forward as many of our members paying by Standing Order pay this into HSBC. We will begin the process of asking our members to change the account in which they subscribe to the charity next year.

INVESTMENTS

I have now notified all our investment partners of Bob’s death and have changed the signatories for these investments.

A number of our investments matured during the 2022 Financial Year, and they have been invested as follows: £85,000 Charity Bank for one-year fixed term investment paying 1.36%.

£85,000 with the Cambridge and Counties Bank for a one Year Fixed Term Investment paying 2%.

£85,000 with the Union Trust Bank for a two-year term 2.75%

12£85,000 Hampshire Trust Bank for a three-year term investment paying 2.6%.

When the PSCF became a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation), our investments were transferred from the names of Bob Howard, Cathy Smith, and Nevil Joseph to the PSCF. When I scrutinised the share certificates, I noticed that we were missing one certificate for Murray Income Trust. It seems that when the transfers took place, this one investment was missed out. Because two of the three trustees have died, I have been unable to resolve this issue. I need to ensure that a stock transfer form has been signed by the existing trustee and the executors of Cathy and Bob’s estate. I have sent for a copy of Cathy’s Death Certificate as we do not know the name and address of her daughter. I will provide an update in due course.

CHARITY TRUST

Up until September 2022 we received our income from the MOJ payroll via the Charities Trust on a regular date each month. This then stopped and funds were paid on different dates without any explanation. After several exchanges with the Charities Trust, we hope that we have resolved the issue and I can confirm that all funds due have been paid. I am grateful to John White for his assistance in resolving this matter.

SPECIAL DONATIONS

During 2022 the Charity made a number of special donations to good causes, that had been supported during the previous year by our members. At last year’s AGM we presented cheques to the value of £23,000 which is a record for our charity. We then made £14,000 in Special Donations at Christmas, £37,000 in total. These donations are not funded by our income from subscriptions by our members, rather they are funded from a combination of Interest/Dividends from our investments and in 2022 from a bequest from Peter Lancaster who bequeathed us £24,300. To date we have received £12,000 and will receive the balance once the taxes for the estate have been agreed with HMRC. Our policy is to spend this money on the good causes brought to us by our members. Any monies left over will be used to fund next year’s special donations.

GIFT AID

This year we haven’t claimed the tax on the Gift aid due to us. This is due to the amount of work undertaken in the reorganisation of the committee, we just ran out of time. We will make a claim for two years gift aid in 2023.

Rosemere Cancer Foundation - Guiding Light for a “Walk in the Dark”!

In 2016 my mum was diagnosed with cancer in her womb and ovaries, two years after I had ovarian cancer. I had my ovaries removed and was lucky, no further treatment was needed, unfortunately that wasn’t the case for my mum, she had to go to the Rosemere unit at Preston hospital for 5 weeks of radiotherapy. This gave my mum a couple of extra years. Unfortunately she sadly died in 2018. I did some fund raising for Rosemere at the time, raising over £600 in her memory.

Then in May 2019 my very close friend Susan Higgins, her husband was diagnosed with cancer. Susan and I went to junior school together and have stayed close friends for over 55 years. His cancer had gone into his bones by the time it was diagnosed, so for three years now he has been going to Rosemere for chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

My mum’s best friend for over 60 years, last year her husband Harry was diagnosed with cancer and needed radiotherapy. My husband took Harry everyday to Rosemere for 4 weeks as he wasn’t well enough to drive. Unfortunately, Harry died in January 2022.

So, when we heard Rosemere were organising a sponsored walk Susan, Hazel, Marion and myself decided we would do our bit and try to get as much money as we could and do this year’s Rosemere Cancer Foundation “Walk in the Dark”, in memory of Harry which was held at the end of April, from Chorley hospital to Preston hospital, 11 miles in total.

The Prison Service Charity Fund donated further with £635.

This year’s walk raised a total of £23,600 for the charity’s new 25 Years Anniversary Guiding Light Appeal.

The appeal, which launched in May to mark Rosemere Cancer Centre’s and Rosemere Cancer Foundation’s joint silver jubilee, has a £1.3 million target to bring SGRT (Surface Guided Radiotherapy Treatment), to the cancer centre in the summer, where approximately 240 patients a day, receive Radiotherapy treatment. Breast Cancer patients will be the first to benefit.

Dan receives a cheque from (left to right) Denise Bolton vice chair of the PSCF, Susan Higgins, Hazel Derbyshire and Marion Hilton.

We were doing well for the first 4 miles, when Susan had stones in her boots, so we had to stop and ended up at the back. Eventually we started walking again and reached halfway, where the local school hall was open with live music, tea, coffee, cakes and a long queue for the toilets !

The second half was harder work, uphill to Preston Prison and all the way through Preston town centre to Preston hospital.

We talked and laughed for 11 miles and 4 hours 20 minutes later arrived at the finish line, raising over £650.

Ronald McDonald House, Manchester

In May HMP/YOI Hindley raised money for Ronald McDonald House Manchester this was in memory of Emmie Violet who was the daughter of an officer at Hindley who sadly passed away at the age of 4 months. During her short life, the family was supported by Ronald McDonald House. £6,672.46 was raised by Hindley Decency Team and further donations from the PSCF. This meant between the Hindley Decency Team and the PSCF we were able to pay for one room at Ronald McDonald House for 1 year (£5000). This room (The Mackintosh Room) now has a plaque outside to show sponsorship. Bob Howard MBE was due to visit for the opening but sadly he died suddenly before he could visit so in memory of Bob his name takes pride of place on the plaque to show how grateful we are for his support. Denise from the PSCF came to the unveiling of the plaque and got to see all the fantastic work Ronald Macdonald House do. The remaining money also meant we paid for the running of the whole of Ronald McDonald House Manchester for one day (£1,672.46)

We chose to pay for 1st May as this was Emmie Violet’s birthday.

Daft As A Brush - “Forever Florence “

A little before the pandemic struck, an officer at HMP Frankland raised a few hundred pounds for Daft As A Brush, in memory of his mother Florence, who used the DAAB transport, whilst undergoing treatment at the RVI Newcastle.

Then I suggested, wouldn’t it be great if we could raise enough money to buy a brand new ambulance for DAAB. Everyone thought I was a little bonkers, because we had to raise £27k !

All through the pandemic and after, prisoners and staff at Frankland continually raised funds, by all means, culminating in five staff from Frankland performing the Full Monty in front of two hundred staff, raising 11k alone.

The Prison Service Charity Fund were also very instrumental in further assisting the staff at Frankland with their fund raising and by the middle of 2022, we were left with a couple of thousand to raise and very kindly the company that prints all our stationery, Potts Print UK , donated the balance and the funds were all raised.

The new ambulance was delivered in September, followed shortly after with presentations at St.Godric’s RC School and HMP Frankland and will shortly be on the roads of the North East, serving those unfortunate people having treatment for cancer.

The Linda McCartney Centre

EMILY’S STORY

The Linda McCartney Centre at the Liverpool Royal Hospital undertake pioneering work for those with Cancer and I know from personal experience the amazing care and treatment that they provide. Linda McCartney provided life extending treatment for my Nan, Winnie and the care was second to none. She visited the Linda McCartney Centre weekly for treatment for the last two years of her life before being cared for by the team for the six weeks prior to her death in 2010.

I raised this money by asking colleagues, friends and family for sponsorship. I also arranged four Charity Cake Sales at HMP Liverpool and sold weekly Spot the Ball Cards. I raised a total of £1428.00 for Cancer Research UK and the PSCF matched this donation and donated £1428.00 to the Linda McCartney Centre.

I had the pleasure of meeting the team and presenting them with a cheque for £1428.00, which they will be using to purchase specialist equipment.

On Saturday 8th July 2022 I took part in the Pretty Muddy 5K Race for Life to raise money in memory of my Nan, Winnie and Grandma, Kitty, both who I lost to Cancer.
