Review of a¢tivitl8s durlng the year endod 31 Do¢embor 2024
The trustees continue to meet regularly in the Physlo Room at the Hospltal.
During Ihe year, the League has purchased visitors. chairs for th& Ward, chai¥s for wailing CArtpali@nts, a
further rlserlreclbner chalr for the Ward dayroom, a wa3herldryer for patients, ¢lolhlng, new patio fumiture, a
repla￿ment aquarium. and a kettle and mlcrowave oven for the community nursing teams who work from
the Hospital. Major ongolng expenses have agaln been milk and fruff for Staff. newspapers and magazlnes, a
conlribulion towards the upkeep of the gardens, servlcing of the hospital car. VOLtch6rs for all th8 hospital
staff al Christmas, 8nd Christmas grfis for the patients. At Christmas. the League organised the traditional
Carol Concert 9Sven by the Lenborough Singers, together with accompanying retreshments.
In 2024, the Leagu8 was grateful lo receive a substantial legacy from the 88tate of Mrs Tessa Dancer and
donations were received from, among others. North Bucks Country Show. Tingewick Historical Society and
G.B. Slopps.
SubscTlPtion Income, following the pattern of rerenl years, is again slightly down lo just under £2,500,
teflecting the fact that there has been no active recwilment of members. The performafice of the League's
investments with Evelyn Partners increased in 2024 to over 7%. justfying our portfolio rebalancing decisions
in late 2023. Our total y8ar4nd fun(Is Increasad from £344,068 10 £391,048.
The committ9e has Conllnued to promote the development of the orGhard area at the Hospital lo mark tha
service of Hospital staff sinc8 its foundation. Eady in the year. conlfactors for the Buckinghamshirg
Heallhc8re NHS Twst created a path through the orchard, bul unfortunately th18 was done whhoul
consultallon.- il is an eyesore whichlgads n¢)where. So far discussions with the Trust to remedy the situation
have been unproducthre and thgrg appears little willlngness to engage.
In th8 same way the offer of the League of Friends lo fund a much-needed new sh¢)wer room to replace the
redundant bath has again not been taken foNard.' although the current bathroom is an obvlous heallh and
saf8ty ri8k, there appear to more urgent pilorltles elsawhere.
The League's Presldent and Ch8lrman represented the League at a meeting of Friends from other BHT
Community Hospitals. all of whom have similar concgms to ours. but athough there wiu be a follow-up
meeting in March 2025. for Iho moment we appear to have reachod an impasso,
