Appointed Trustees meet regularly to review goals and set plans.
OBJECTIVES & ACTIVITIES
The advancement of health or the saving of lives.
Summary of the objectives of the charity set out in its governing document
Raising awareness of PCOS will lead to earlier opportunities for diagnosis, prevention of long-term complications and better support for people with PCOS. This can be demonstrated in the amount of people engaging with us as there is currently no charity for PCOS in Ireland. General awareness among the public should also increase. There is no potential for harm as we are solely providing information that is general. No medical advice is given. Women and people with PCOS are the main beneficiaries but the public at large will also benefit by understanding more about PCOS through our work.
Summary of Main Activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objectives
Facebook Peer Support Group, Social Media Awareness Campaigns, Publication of online information for educational purposes. These activities increase understanding and awareness of the condition which can help people get earlier diagnosis/treatment and can also reduce stigma. No fees are charged for our membership/information.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
| PRINCIPAL SOURCE OF FUNDS | We do not receive any funds and are hoping to open a bank account in the future. We are fortunate to be able to use social media to our advantage as it is free. We currently have a team of volunteers who can help sometimes although due to illness sometimes this can be inconsistent which sets things back from time to time. Nevertheless, we do continue to raise a lot of awareness in the local community and once we are more established we should be able to secure funding/donations. |
|---|---|
| OTHER OPTIONAL INFORMATION | Plans include opening a bank account so we can receive donations. We continue to focus on community awareness to help reduce stigma and to help increase the likelihood that women will get an earlier diagnosis thus reducing chances of complications or future health problems/co-morbidities. |
