Chalrrnan's report 2023-24
l am happy to report that the League of Friends (LOF} is in good health and going from strength to
strength. As our Treasurer's report shows we continue to generate much needed funds to support
health and wellbelng for patients, staff and visitors to Horsham Hospttal and the wider
community.
We have seen a number of changes in the Committee over the past year with some valued
members retiring,. Judy Mcmahon, Paula Whybrow, Brian Thompson and Graham Loft will all be
sorely missed. Happily we continue to attrart excellent volunteers and the Committee is happy to
welcome Maureen Vallon and Diane Farr.
The last year ha5 seen a number of successful projects supported by the LOF Includin& St
Catherine's Hospice Carers programme, the Phoenix Club, equipment for Horizon ward,
refurbishment of the Chapel and ongoing garden upkeep. It should be stressed that without
funding such as ours many of these worthwhile projerts would not be feasible.
Our Summer fete was a resounding success raising nearly £3000 and providing a wonderful
afternoon for the wider communityto come together with more than 650 attendees on the
afternoon. Thanks to Hana and the or83nizing team and to the numerous volunteers on the day.
The tea bar and shop continue to thrive under Albert and Maureen's guidance, and the dedication
of our volunteers ably coordinated by Anne & Jlll. The addition of a high end 'barista quality,
offee machine early this year has been enthusiastically welcomed by our customers. Book sales
under Brian continue to be a valued part of the Trust's activities. Income from these outlets
continues to grow and provides a vital source of funds for future projects.
My thanks to our dedicated committee for their support through the year; Peter Beaney (Vice-
Chairman & Draw coordinator), Paula Whybrow (Treasurer - retiring), Dawn Fincham Ihospital
liaison and secretary), Karen Mays (minutes secretary). Val Winterflood (Membership and
Christmas Cards), Albert Marrable and Maureen Francis (Tea Bar & Shopl, Debbie Beaney
Icommunicationsl , Brian Thompson (Book Sales), Hana Bailey IFete}, Lillian Bold (Gardens),
Graham Loft (Street Collections and tea barl, Maureen Vallon and Hilary Sherwin-smith. Thanks
also to Caroline Lucas our Patron for providing considerable support to our activities.
Thanks also to our dedicated team of volunteers in the tea bar. shop, and gardens. It really cannot
be stressed too much how the Trust values your efforts without whlch we would not be able to
continue our mission.
As we look forward to the next year the committee will focus on:
Continued success in service provision and fund raising
Effective management and utllization of our cash reserves
Reviewing and updating our governance documentation
Succession planning and attraction of new members
I look forward to working wtth you in continuing to make the LOF a wonderful place to volunteer
and to provide much needed support to the Hospital and wider community.
