In 2019, the Lupus Trust was chosen to receive £85,000 over three years from the Society’s HA Andrews Memorial Fund. Sadly, we had to send this year's instalment in the post rather than present it in person, but the Trust’s research team were keen to update us on how their work was progressing despite 2020’s challenges.

North Gloucestershire Oddfellows has donated £1000 to Merton House in Ross-on-Wye to help the hotel, which offers specialist care breaks, get back on its feet after a temporary closure due to the pandemic. This local gesture is on top of a central donation of £5000 from the Oddfellows earlier in the year.
