Community Friends was formed in June 2018.
We are a part of The Charity Commission of England and Wales.
It is a voluntary support organisation for the Community and its aims are to give service and raise funds to improve facilities and equipment for the benefit of patients and people in the local community Our Constitution ensures that money received and raised is used solely to benefit the Community. The Community Friends will publish an Annual Report and Audited Accounts each year. These can be viewed on the Charity Commissioners website Community Friends are a highly respected and trusted organisation and as such have encouraged the support of many people.
It has a proud record of voluntary service and raising funds, as a former Hospital League of Friends, all project donations that are received are applied in full to benefit the Community and people in need.
The Community Friends has a Board of Trustees who manage the organisation in a responsible and professional manner. These Trustees, along with volunteers of the Friends, give time and services for the good of the cause. Community Friends bring along a wealth of experience from their time in the League of Friends for St Leonards Hospital.
