Trinity Hospice Annual Review 202324 V6

Page 1


Message from the Chairman & Chief Executive

One year ago, as we looked ahead to 2024, our aims and ambitions were to work with local healthcare partners to deliver local priorities around improving timely access to consistently good palliative and end of life care. This is at a time when we are caring for more people with multiple complex needs at the end of their lives. And to do so at a time of significant financial strain both to us and the community we rely on – the people we care for – for support.

We said we’d have started the process to set out ambitious plans to create a workplace that was fit for purpose for our growing workforce, and set out bold strategies to increase income for our charity that would allow us to continue to support all who need local hospice care now and in years to come.

It’s a testament to our staff that we have achieved so much despite an increasingly tough landscape as hospice statutory funding continues fall in real terms. It remains at around only

27% of our overall operating costs. It is getting tougher and tougher every year, however, we continue to strive to improve our services and the quality of our care and working with our supporters and partners, despite these pressures.

All who come to work in hospice and palliative care cannot accept poor end-of-life care or that nothing can be done to improve the lives and deaths of those travelling the path to the end of life, even in such challenging times. This mindset drives our staff and volunteers to always try to go the extra mile, to make the time to listen to the individual needs of all who we care for, and to advocate for all who live on the Fylde Coast for ‘consistent’ and ‘timely’ access to good quality palliative and end of life care. Your support makes this possible.

Who we are

Trinity has been at the heart of the Fylde coast for nearly 40 years, providing compassionate care for people on their journey towards the end of life. Our dedicated specialist nursing teams touch the lives of thousands of patients and families each year, with one vision for the future – that everyone across Blackpool and the Fylde coast has access to high-quality and consistent end-of-life care.

Our outstanding care and support is free to all who need it, wherever they want it; whether they are in our hospice, in hospital or a residential care home, or in their own home in familiar surroundings. And we don’t stop at the end of a person’s life – our care continues through bereavement support for as long as someone needs us.

Our business objectives

we will work with our partners to make sure palliative patients know their choices and receive only the best care from us

We cared for more than 3,936 patients and 404 carers/loved ones across our family of services.

30 patients were admitted to the In-patient Unit

HOSPICE AT HOME saw 1,158 patients WITH AN AVERAGE OF... admissions OUR HOSPITAL TEAM supported 1,594 PATIENTS TRINITY HOSPICE’S COMMUNITY PALLIATIVE TEAM

362 Per month

Of those patients known to the community service... 94% died out of hospital 85% died in their preferred place of care

9,933 20% of all patients supported 68% of all home deaths supported 1,941 patients making 5,136 visits to patients and provided specialist palliative care and clinical support to 34% of all hospital deaths

86 children were given support at Brian House with 29 new children referred

Total number of face-to-face Lymphoedema appointments 1,182

VISITS were made to people at home

That’s much more than the national average

We ran a total of 1,179 Adult One-to-One Counselling Sessions and 645 groups We ran a total of 222 Child One-to -One Counselling Sessions had a non-cancer diagnosis

303 people supported through 822 complementary therapy treatments

Across all services, we supported 41% of all deaths on the Fylde coast, in 2023 (January –December), as well as coaching, training and supporting other health care professionals

Sustaining success despite the challenges

Over the last year the numbers of patients that our dedicated care teams have visited outside of the hospice – whether that’s in hospital, care homes or people’s own homes – has increased on the year before.

We’ve been able to meet the increased demand on our service, continuing the significant positive impact we have on the wider health and social care system, whilst achieving many of the ambitions we set ourselves for the year, significantly our partnership working with the wider system in order to deliver against the new five year Dying Well Strategy.

This achievement has been possible because our staff are so committed and prepared to keep “making a difference” despite the health and social care system being in crisis.

We have been wrapped in a warm soft blanket since coming here with Mum. You kept her safe, comfortable and respected her dignity.

Working together to put patients first

This, in turn, is achieved with incredible fundraising as the Fylde coast’s largest charity, which is relied upon to keep our doors open and our care always free at the point of need – even more so as our annual funding increase from the government abjectly fails to adequately meet the increased levels of inflation.

Over the last year we have developed twice-weekly clinics held at Trinity through the Living Well Service, providing patients with an opportunity to receive a full assessment of symptom management, advanced care planning and psychological support.

The clinics are led by our Community Palliative Care Team, and are an excellent example of the work we’ve carried out this year to integrate Trinity’s key services for the best possible outcomes for our patients. With our team working collaboratively, our one-stop-shop embeds the ethos of Living Well – a patient-centred approach with a key focus on what matters to them.

These clinics are resulting in a reduction in the need for home visits to some patients and have provided

an opportunity for upskilling our Associate Clinical Nurse Specialists and Healthcare Assistants to support advanced care planning.

Patient story

It’s not just our Community team reaching in to Living Well. Patients on our In-patient Unit who are well enough are accessing some of the sessions provided by Living Well, including complementary therapies and our regular baking group, creating special memories with their loved ones.

Cheryl was first supported by Trinity Hospice 10 years ago, when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She had regular appointments with our lymphoedema nurses and received counselling from our specialists at the Linden Centre.

After being in remission for seven years, Cheryl was told her cancer had returned. She had a tumour removed from her small intestine, but doctors gave her the devastating news that her cancer had spread and was, sadly, incurable.

Cheryl coped for a long time on her own, while caring for her mum who also has lung cancer and is living with dementia. It was at our Dementia Lounge that our Admiral Nurse Team recognised that Cheryl could do with more support. They put her back in touch with Trinity.

She spent six weeks on our In-patient unit getting help to bring her pain under control and manage her symptoms.

She said: “Trinity is amazing.

“Different people from different roles came to see me and took a real interest in me. They cared and they listened. They treated me, and everyone else around me, with dignity.”

While under our care, Cheryl took part in some of our Living Well Service activities, like our baking group.

Despite being out of her comfort zone, she loved the experience.

“I really surprised myself,” she said.

“There was another family there with young girls and it just reminded me of when I used to be a Rainbows leader.

“And my cakes turned out really good!”

After returning home, Cheryl is continuing to live well with her diagnoses with support from our Living Well Team, Palliative Care Consultant and the Linden Centre.

Supporting Brian House Families at home Spiritual care for all patients

We’ve developed a new Community Nurse Lead role at Brian House, giving us the ability to support our families at home.

While our dedicated children’s hospice is able to relieve the pressures parents face when caring for a child with a life-limiting condition through respite care, there are times when families need our input away from the hospice.

One of the special things about this role is that we are now able to care for our children and the wider family in the place they feel most comfortable.

It’s a chance to introduce them to the work of a children’s hospice when they may be preconceptions about what a children’s hospice does.

We can have important conversations around advanced care planning in comfortable, familiar surroundings for the family, and support the transition from home to hospice care. When the time comes, we can also support end-of-life care at home if that’s what a family wants.

And it’s not just the home – our Community Nurse

Lead visits patients in hospital, from Blackpool Victoria Hospital to our partners at Alder Hey and Manchester Children’s Hospital.

It’s our aim to provide a seamless link for children and their families between the hospice, the hospital, their GP and home.

Hospices are not religious organisations, but we will always do our best to meet the spiritual care needs of all patients.

Spirituality doesn’t always mean religion, but is more about what is most important to the person at

heart; their belief system that lies at their centre. It’s a place where they seek comfort and can be true to themselves and their feelings.

This is incredibly important to some people as they approach their final days, and we’re proud that our Chaplaincy Team – made up of faith leaders and volunteers – was able to spend time with more than 90% of patients who came into the hospice.

We’ve worked to develop our Holistic Assessment for patients so that we know what is important to them as they reach their last days and hours, ensuring their wishes are documented at an early stage and met when the time comes. We will roll this out throughout the next year.

Thank you is not a big enough word for what we feel about the whole service.
A nurse I spoke to said it was a privilege to work there and she would not want to work anywhere else. I was very moved by what she said.

An excellent start for our Virtual ward

At the start of the year, our Virtual Ward had just accepted its first patients. 12 months later, this incredible service has supported 243 patients.

Our Virtual Ward provides a safe environment for hospital or hospice patients to be cared for in their homes, using effective technology and support from specialist palliative care teams. It’s an alternative to the hospital or hospice setting for palliative patients who are in or reaching a crisis, and supports their early discharge from the acute or hospice setting.

Through our Virtual Ward, we’ve saved a total of 1,162 bed days which represents a cost saving to the acute trust where patients may otherwise have been cared for. Working with our healthcare partners in the community, we’ve been able to recognise and effectively manage the deterioration in patients, resulting in just two patients requiring admission to hospital.

Over the year, we’ve seen 52% of our virtual ward beds in use, and have been recognised as having the highest level of bed usage in the area in comparison to paediatrics, frailty and respiratory virtual wards.

Sharing our resources to provide consistent cover

As recruitment and staffing through the year has been a challenge, we’ve agreed new ways of working between our clinical teams and external partners to ensure consistent care in the hospice and in the community overnight.

Our nurses and health care staff working at Hospice at Home have spent time working on the In-patient Unit to help cover staff absence.

And to cover times when our Hospice at Home team is not able to meet the need in the community during the night, we’ve developed a new partnership with the local District Nursing Team which we hope to formalise with a Memorandum of Understanding.

As well as working smarter to deliver palliative care, these measures help to support clinical colleagues to enhance their knowledge and skills which, overall, lead to positive outcomes in our patient care.

Supporting schools to help pupils with grief

We’ve agreed new ways of working between our clinical teams and external partners

Our Schools Link service is supporting 47 primary, secondary and special needs schools in Blackpool who are automatically subscribed to the service. In addition, we have a total of 34 schools independently subscribed from across Fylde and Wyre which we intend to expand throughout next year.

As well as providing networking events for our subscribed schools and access to appropriate resources on grief and loss for school aged children, our Schools Link partnership includes one-to-one therapy for children at school by one of our trained counsellors.

Schools Link is a vital service for our subscribed schools, sharing key skills to school staff on supporting children through grief and loss, but it also acts as an income generation tool for our charity.

We can’t support all the children across Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre through their grief and loss, but we can empower those who work with them to provide vital support at a difficult time.

Laura’s story

Fourteen years ago, Laura was touched by Trinity’s care. Her experience inspired her to become a volunteer and now she’s enjoying a new career as a Healthcare Assistant on our In-patient Unit.

This is her story

I initially fell in love with Trinity when my Dad came to the hospice after his diagnosis and treatment 14 years ago. He was in and out of Trinity five times, and I can still remember to this day how we were treated as Dad’s family and the care he was given. It’s something that has stuck with me.

After he died, I enquired about becoming a hospice volunteer. After taking time to come to terms with our loss, I started my role as a trolley volunteer, making cups of tea and coffee for patients on the unit, which I absolutely loved. I also volunteered on the main reception, taking evening shifts once a week to work around my full-time job at a local school. I would always look forward to my shift at the hospice.

When Covid hit, we weren’t allowed into the hospice. I understood, but I realised how much I missed Trinity. It was such a relief when volunteers were able to return.

Last year, my eldest child was in her final year of secondary school, preparing for her GCSEs. I took a step back and realised I didn’t need to work in a school anymore to suit our lifestyle. So I got talking to the staff at the hospice and they suggested I apply for a ‘bank’ position at the hospice.

The team were amazing, and really boosted my confidence to go for it. I’ve always been a caring person, and Trinity has become such a huge part of my life. I went for it, and in November reduced my hours at school – where I had worked for 17 years – and started as a Healthcare Assistant, covering shifts on an ad-hoc basis.

In February, the hospice put a vacancy out for a full-time position. With the encouragement of my colleagues, I went for it.

Trinity is a place where I feel very comfortable. It’s a privilege to be able to help others and my only wish is that I’d done it sooner. Of course, some days are tougher than others, but Trinity is just an amazing place to be. This is an opportunity I’ll be eternally grateful for.

Even today, I can stand outside the room Dad was in and take a breath. I have wonderful memories of being here with my family.

Here at Trinity Hospice, we pride ourselves on supporting staff to undertake professional development.

For nursing staff and allied health care professionals, this is an important part of demonstrating their fitness to practice. Revalidation supports nurses to capture their learning and, more importantly, how they have applied this to patient care.

Over the last three years we have supported a wide range of staff to develop their skills to improve the care they provide for patients and families. Clinical services celebrate this success and congratulate individuals and teams for their achievements.

Staff development successes include:

• Developing the Advanced Clinical Practitioner role (ACP)

• Developing the Nurse Associate Programme

• Commencing Management and Leadership upskilling across all clinical settings and teams

Promoting staff wellbeing throughout the year Supporting colleagues through their career

This year we have relaunched our Wellbeing Steering Group to ensure that staff wellbeing remains amongst our top priorities as we recognise the resilience required to work for a hospice charity.

We have continued our programme of Schwartz Rounds, providing colleagues with regular opportunities to share emotional experiences from both inside and out of the workplace in a supportive and confidential environment.

Each session continues to grow in popularity as colleagues see the value in taking the time to share

and listen to these stories, but the most popular was a Round focused on the effects of menopause on our workforce.

This has led to the development of a new Menopause Network at Trinity Hospice, supporting colleagues with fact-based information and resources and the chance to share concerns, advice and experiences.

After launching with a Menopause Café, the network is planning events throughout the year aimed at all genders and age groups across the hospice.

It’s our aim to have everyone talking about menopause freely and without embarrassment.

Providing the right skills to care for complex needs

As we are seeing more children with extremely complex health care needs, we have completed a programme of training to increase the clinical skills and competencies of colleagues working in Brian House. This includes:

• Compassionate communication

• Grief and bereavement

• Symptom management planning

• Advanced care planning

We have also introduced bitesize education programmes such as ‘medication of the month’ and a focussed session on medical calculations.

We’ve facilitated sessions led by external partners like Alder Hey Hospital on ventilation and tracheostomy, Blackpool Teaching Hospitals on stoma care and epilepsy management and even local funeral directors who have provided training on care of the deceased.

Our colleagues now have the right skills and the right place and time to be able to support the increasing medical complexities and developing technology needs of the children who access our care, and we are able to offer short stays and day care to children who require a higher level of ventilation.

Two of our Brian House Champions are now delivering training across the acute trust.

Delivering an art trail for the first time

As the year drew to a close, we were on the cusp of launching our biggest ever fundraising event –Elmer’s Big Parade Blackpool.

We had a total of 71 sculptures based on celebrated author David McKee’s much loved patchwork elephant ready to take pride of place in outdoor spaces and indoor locations across Blackpool.

Focussing on the main tourist attractions down the Promenade and in the town centre, our trail was expected to bring people to the resort from across the country, keen to see the unique artworks which were created by local and national artists – including our own Graphic Designer!

Each large sculpture was sponsored by a local business, and 35 schools and community groups joined our Learning Programme with a commitment to raise at least £850.

Our art trail was delivered in partnership with Wild in Art and Andersen press, with the support of Presenting Partners Thompson Contracts and Ameon, Learning Programme Sponsor Tower Insurance Brokers and Official Supporters Shared Services Connected Ltd (SSCL), Beaverbrooks, Partington’s Holiday Parks, RSS TM & Events and Blackpool Council.

Although not reflected in this year’s income report, we’re delighted that once all of our large sculptures were sold at auction at the end of the trail, along with the sale of merchandise, donations and event tickets, our first ever art trail exceeded expectations and raised a magnificent £200,014 for Brian House Children’s Hospice. This income will be included in next year’s financial review.

Our fundraising promise We will be clear, honest and open We will be respectful We will be fair and responsible We will be accountable

Special gifts that keep on giving

Our commitment to fundraising

As a registered charity and member of the Fundraising Regulator we are committed to the highest standards, adhering to the Fundraising Code of Practice, monitoring our fundraisers and those we work with and complying to charity and other associate laws and regulations.

• 610 supporters donated through a regular gift each month, totalling £73,436

• 69 people remembered Trinity Hospice and Brian House through a gift in their Will, raising £2,315,118

• 187 businesses across the Fylde coast and beyond chose to support local hospice care

• 390 supporters and community groups organised their own fundraising events and challenges, raising a collective total of £368,650

• Over 1,800 people supported hospice care in memory of a loved one, worth £298,901

We’ve had another year of exceptional support from our friends at the Kentown Wizard Foundation, who have once again sponsored our Blackpool Night Run and Blackpool Santa Dash events with a grant of £30,000.

Together, a total of 6,700 people took part in these events, raising an incredible £137,000 for Brian House Children’s Hospice.

We have also been very fortunate to receive grants from some of our local masonic organisations.

In total we received £87,764 in Grants and Trusts

In 2023-24 we had 10,741 people playing our weekly lottery, with 12,586 weekly plays

Supporting our charity to provide outstanding care

We received six exceptional legacies over £100,000 which, together, brought in over £1.1m

Fundraising for the Fylde coast’s biggest charity continues to be an ever-increasing challenge as our community’s needs for palliative and end-of-life care increase while statutory income from the government fails to meet exceptional levels of inflation.

It means we must find new and creative ways for our community – the people we serve – to support us, raising more money so that we can continue to provide care and support that is free at the point of need for those who require it.

An incredible 12,418 people took part in our events throughout the year

Elmer’s Big Parade Blackpool is an excellent example of our creative fundraising, but is also being delivered against a significant fundraising target to be met through our enviable events programme, our community and corporate activities, and people who chose to fundraising for us in memory of loved ones, through making a regular donation and through gifts left to us in Wills.

Using the high street

to provide excellent care

It’s been another significant year for our retail activities, which have now surpassed a £1million net income for hospice care on the Fylde coast. We’ve experienced our best-ever year not only for sales, but also for the donations of good quality second-hand items from the public.

Throughout the year, we’ve opened four new shops, including our first shop in Garstang in aid of Brian House. As well as providing people in the area with the chance to grab a bargain, it’s the furthest we’ve gone to promote Brian House as the town’s children’s hospice.

We’ve also opened our first Superstore – also supporting Brian House – on Vicarage Lane, Blackpool. It sells end of line stock that would have

otherwise gone to landfill, and has proved exceptionally popular. In its first week, it took an incredible £11,500 in sales and received 178 bags of stock donations.

As well as another Trinity Hospice shop close to the town centre, we have opened our second Attire by Trinity Hospice menswear shop in St Annes, which is drawing attention from across the North West. In its first week, it made a fantastic £8,000.

We have excellent shops in fantastic locations, which drive customers in thanks to the great stock we are able to offer and our internal décor which puts us in the leagues of well-known high street stores.

This year, we claimed £158,030 in Gift Aid

More than 374,457 bags of items were donated Our retail teams processed more than 825,357 donated items

Our team of shop managers and assistants, our volunteers, van drivers and admin team are an incredible asset to our charity, always striving to raise as much money through their shop as possible to support local hospice care.

• This year, our shops raised £1.1m, an increase from £800,000 last year

• Our door-to-door van picked up an extra 750 bags of new stock

A celebration of 40 years of hospice care

2025 marks the 40th anniversary of providing dedicated hospice care in Blackpool.

Trinity Hospice was incorporated as a charity in January 1981 as the Fylde coast community rallied together to fund its local hospice.

Four years later, on 3rd June 1985, Trinity, the Hospice for the Fylde, accepted its first patient.

Built on a dream to provide compassionate care on the journey to the end of life, Trinity’s ethos has never wavered, but grown to meet the increased needs of the community as people live longer with complex health care needs.

Next year will be one of celebration, honouring the exceptional people who made Trinity what it was, and those who continue to put their all into ensuring Trinity will remain at the forefront of outstanding palliative and end-of-life care well into the future – the teams passionate about working at Trinity and Brian House, the dedicated volunteers who donate their time and the committed fundraisers and supporters.

Without all of whom, Trinity could never exist.

Working with partners to deliver Fylde coast strategy

Trinity Hospice continues to play a central role in the strategic planning for palliative and end-of-life care across the Fylde coast, and this year has seen the launch of the Fylde coast’s Dying Well Strategy 20242029. This strategy sets the blueprint for an integrated and collaborative working approach with our key Fylde coast partner services across health, social and spiritual care, and with other community voluntary sector service providers.

The strategy is based on six ambitions identified by key partners based on feedback from local people and health care workers who have experienced palliative and end-of-life care. They are:

• Each person is seen as an individual

• Each person gets fair access to care

• Maximising comfort and wellbeing

• Care is coordinated

• All staff are prepared to care

• Each community is prepared to help

Across the Fylde coast, all health care providers are committed to providing palliative and end-of-life care that is consistently good to all local people, wherever they are and whenever they need it. We are passionate about making sure all patients have the most positive experience possible as they reach the end of their lives.

It is our vision to achieve consistently good and timely access to palliative and end of life care for the communities of Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre.

Increasing access to our children’s hospice

While Brian House Children’s Hospice continues to deliver exceptional care to the Fylde coast’s most fragile children, we have identified that our current staffing structure doesn’t permit the hospice to be operational seven days a week.

Over the next 12 months we will work towards an increase in our service provision to provide an integrated and flexible workforce that meets the needs of the families who need our care and support.

This will be done through collaborative working with children’s community services and social care via a new Community Senior Staff Nurse to improve access to Brian House and support children and their families in their own homes, community and hospital settings.

Supporting more families in twilight hours

Our Community Palliative Care and Hospice at Home teams provide access to hospice care and exceptional support to families at home through the day and night.

Our Hospice at Home team in particular are constantly praised for helping to keep patients out of hospital during health care crises when other services are closed.

But we have identified a gap in external community services which close at 6pm, before our Hospice at Home services begins at 9pm, resulting in a reduction in community nurses and specialist clinical oversight from the palliative care team.

Therefore, we will develop a twilight service using our current workforce which will integrate Trinity and NHS Community services in supporting patients at home in the evening. We envision that this will reduce hospital admissions in the last six months of life and increase the number of patients dying in their preferred place of care and death.

As well as providing a more consistent service for patients, this will also create more flexible working options for colleagues.

Creating a hospice building that’s fit for the future

Our plans to upgrade our hospice buildings which are nearing 40 years old continue, with preferred options being developed that will replace appliances and core systems that are reaching the end of their lifecycle while creating a hospice that is better suited to an increased workforce and more complex patients.

The project will take a phased approach in order to focus on the older infrastructure.

It’s expected that work will begin in 2026.

Developing career pathways to retain and recruit staff

In the current climate, competition for skilled clinical staff is intense. In order to attract the right candidates and keep them, we want to offer opportunities for learning and development alongside career progressions.

We want to achieve a well-defined career pathway and a comprehensive training programme that meets colleagues’ needs and equips our clinical team to be ‘fit for the future’, recognising their full potential.

We want Trinity to be known as an employer dedicated to fostering a culture of learning and continuous improvement in a positive and supportive environment.

Focusing our fundraising to provide exceptional care

While we anticipate Elmer’s Big Parade Blackpool will raise over £100,000 for Brian House, the need for us to raise over £5 million continues year after year.

We hope to develop our income streams through continued stewardship and identifying new supporters, particularly as we approach our 40th year.

We will celebrate those who support us, and show their impact through continued storytelling to ensure our message shines through – that we are only here, thanks to you.

Recognising our volunteers for the impact they make

With more than 650 volunteers supporting our work across all services, it’s important that we continue to recognise the significant impact they have on all who need Trinity’s care.

We plan to restore our final volunteering service –Hospice Neighbours – which was halted due to the pandemic, seeing volunteers visit patients at home to carry out light tasks and provide respite for carers.

As we approach our 40th anniversary, we will celebrate the incredible people who donate their time so we can continue to care.
