As I described last year, 2013 was the 15th anniversary of LINC’s inception and I am pleased to be able to inform you that it was a very successful year. The difficult financial climate has continued but I am pleased to say that LINC has managed to increase its income during this period. This has allowed us to improve the amount of help we to give to our cohort of patients in Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and nsiv nsive South Worcestershire. te e C Inte C In he he & m & m a ia i o o t The continuing success of LINC is down to many things but not least our dedicated staff, supporters, t m h m h e e e a e r volunteers and the never-ending generosity of the general public and local businesses; I would like to thank a k a r k a u p p e y them all for their hard work, enthusiasm and their support of our charity u L e y L For more than 10 years LINC has funded a research post, I am pleased to say that we have again made money available to appoint a scientist for the current year. In last year’s annual review we announced that we had started a campaign to raise sufficient money to employ additional psychological help for our patients. This campaign is progressing very well, we are hoping to have enough resources to begin recruitment for one of these clinical psychologists soon. Both of these major projects have been in addition to an increase in the direct help to our patients - we hope to be able to extend this further in 2014. We have worked in partnership with our accountants Randall and Payne again this year to include in this report our annual accounts. Also included are some of the highlights from LINC’s successful year. We hope you find the report of interest. I would finally like to thank Dr Gill Rouse for her dedication and hard work, our Trustees for their commitment, expertise and endeavour during the past year and you for taking the time to read this report. Stephan Bates, Chair of Trustees Co- Founder & Director Gill Rouse LINC Trustees Stephan Bates – Chair Adrian Bamford, David Drew Geoff Fox, Rebecca Frewin Terry Hopley, Asha Johny Paul Nurden, Adam Rye Martyn Thomas 3 ntensive C I he & m ia o t m h e e a r k a u p e A word from y L the Director I am delighted to say that we have managed to stay above board during a difficult financial climate. We have been amazed at people’s generosity both financially and with their time. During this year I have also had the siv nsiv ten e C Inte e C privilege to be President of the Rotary Club of Cheltenham North choosing LINC to be one of my charities. In he he & m & m a ia i o o m t This close relationship has meant that some of our fundraising activities have been arranged in conjunction m t h h e e e a e r a k a r k a u p p e y with my Rotary Club. u L e y L Our wonderful Patrons have given their support during our 15th year. Laurence & Jackie Llewelyn-Bowen hosted a celebratory dinner at Ellenborough Park and also compered the Annual Rotary Carol Concert at Cheltenham Ladies College. PJ Crook held a weekend just before Christmas selling miniatures and greetings cards and raised an amazing £15,000 which she shared between LINC and the National Star College of which she is also Patron. LINC has forged a close relationship with Rendcomb side wards where our haematology patients are nursed. We continue to supply welcome toiletry packs for urgent admissions and during the year have purchased 8 new reclining chairs – one for each room – as well as a bladder scanner, 2 new dinamap patient monitoring machines and 8 drip stands – again, one for each room. We will hopefully be purchasing 6 more dinamap patient monitoring machines in the near future so that there is always one in each room reducing the risk of infection when they are moved from one room to another. LINC was instrumental is getting a broadband line installed for Rendcomb ward so that patients can now communicate with the outside world by email and can log on to the internet through the wi fi connection. This has made a huge difference and has been welcomed be all the patients and staff. We have also continued to support the LINC Edward Jenner Unit in Gloucester supplying 3 new reclining chairs, a new fridge and a bariatric chair to cater for patients up to 24 stone in weight. Incidentally, the Unit won the Patient Choice Award for the best outpatient department which we feel we can take some credit for by producing such a state of the art day unit facility for both the patients and the staff. Our Make a Difference Campaign now stands at a magnificent £130K and we hope to be able to appoint a LINC clinical psychologist for 3 days a week very shortly. There have been some changes in the LINC staff – Debbie Masding left us in November to go back to working in gynaecology . She is replaced by 2 part time staff – the first is Sally Gillespie who will be helping with marketing and bringing new people in to support LINC. She will be working 3 days per week. The second is Karen Evans who will be our administrative assistant working from 10am to 2pm each day but she will not be in post until the end of April.
