The Trust is administered by local trustees for the benefit of the Wrington Vale Medical Practice. Funds are derived from gifts, legacies, collections in memory of deceased patients, and occasionally fundraising when particular needs arise.
Trustees' meetings, attended by a doctor from the practice, take place twice a year. An AGM is held in early March, to which all patients from the practice are invited. The date is posted in both surgeries
Below are some items purchased by the Trust, thereby enhancing the service provided by the Practice:
ECG machines at both surgeries
Emergency bags equipped for the doctor on call
Blood pressure monitors
An adjustable examination couch
Spirometers (for accurately recording lung function)
The existence of the Trust, and the value that it is able to offer the practice, depends entirely on the generosity of those who give to the fund. The patients are the direct beneficiaries of the fund, and the doctors and nurses also greatly appreciate the enhanced facilities provided.
