the patients, assist in the educational facilities and provide funding for projects which come
within our remit. The Friends also fund the distribution of toys to the wards at Christmas.
Thanks to the efforts of Lynne Hebblethwaite and her team of volunteers, our shop has
enjoyed another record year and we feel that we play an integral role in making visrts lo the
Hospital less intimidating. However, we still need more volunteers to enable us to keep the
shop fully staffed.
Last year was almost a record year for the value of donations that we made to the Hospital
and we are pleased that this year we have donated Similar amount, howèver we are
conc8m8d that the actual number of requests we have received for funding has reduced this
year.
In order to promote more requests, we have redesigned our publicity leafiet and request fom
for distribution throughout the Hospital. We now encourage applications for funding by email
so that requests can be dealt with quickly.
We do emphasise that we are always pleased to receive requests for funding and no
reasonable request is ever rejected,. y 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.
