Public benefit statement
In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular, the advancement of equality and diversity.
Achievements and performance
The CIO was formed on 25 January 2021; these are its first accounts and it benefited from a transfer of £21,458 from the preceding unincorporated association.
In the past year we have migrated to a new online learning portal. Updating of the website and platform has enabled more interactive spaces for groups to engage and connect online in a way that was not possible on our previous website. These interactions allow for more meaningful engagement and networking connections within the trailblazer trainees and Primary Care Network Health Inequality Leads whom currently use them. It is hoped to expand this to create a similar space for the Post-CCT GP Trailblazers.
We currently have 1,250 registered users registered on 2,340 courses. In the past year we have developed and published five new learning modules and three podcast episodes.
The charity has provided a quality and affordable space to develop and host content for the London Network of Nurses and Midwives Homelessness group – namely their online module on “health related street outreach” which is available and free to all whom wish to access it.
Ongoing provision of free, core, foundational e learning modules pertaining to health inequalities and related topics.
