There are five trustees of the Charity and they are Dr. Martln Steiner (Chairman), Carolyn

(Treasurer). All the officers have acted in their roles for the entire year. The committee
appoints the trustees and at the moment there are 9 committee members.
The object of the Charity is to raise funds to help and support the welfare and lifestyle of th8
patients, assist In the educational facilitles and provide funding for projects which come
within our remit. The Friends also fund the distribution of toys to the wards at Christmas.
We have continued to hold committee meeting by Zoom on the first Wednesday of every
month.
Thanks to the efforts of Lynne Hebblethwaite and her team of volunteers, our shop has had
record year and we feel that we play an integral role in making visits to the Hospital less
intimidating. However, we still need more volunteers to enable us to keep the shop fully
stsffed.
Our donations to the Hospltal have incr88sed again this year and our reserves are healthy,
thanks to the hard work of our volunteers over the years, so we are confident that we shall
be able to continue to support the Hospital.
We publicise the availability of funding throughout the Hospital but we rely on hospital staff,
departments and adolescent services to provide us with the opportunity to give. We are
always pleased to receive r8qU8Sts for funding and no reasonable r8quest is ever rejected;
we want to help as much as we can.
Paid fundraisers are not employed and our Charity is entirely run by volunteers. All services
are shown in our receipts and payments annual accounts, which we submit.
