Helping Lyndhurst Surgery Thrive Through Local Support
Friends of Lyndhurst Surgery (FOLS) is a charity founded in 1994, dedicated to enhancing patient care by supporting Lyndhurst Surgery. Our mission is to raise funds for vital medical equipment and foster community engagement through various events. Driven by local generosity, we ensure the surgery maintains excellent standards and serves the community with care and convenience.
Membership of the FOLS committee is restricted to twelve people with many others wishing to work alongside us, these people known as “Friends of FOLS” are invaluable to us
Fundraising has proven difficult over recent years due to the pandemic. However our aim is to continually raise funds through various activities with such funds going towards the cost of new equipment and the servicing requirements of items already in use.
As equipment reaches the end of its useful life and is deemed to be unserviceable it becomes a priority to purchase like replacements, this of course being an on-going situation.
The FOLS Committee meets on a regular basis with a member of the Doctors Surgery Senior Team. In these meetings we discuss what equipment needs are required to help them be more efficient and provide a better service to their patients. We then identify the cost of the items and start to raise funds to be able to purchase and maintain the equipment.
