Public benefits
The direct benefits which flow from NIMAST’s purpose includes: Promotion of excellence in care for patients of stroke, their families and carers, at all stages of their journey following stroke; the delivery of support, training, research and education leading to increased knowledge of NIMAST members through the sharing and dissemination of
information and experience resulting in improved services in stroke care; enhanced knowledge of stroke care for NIMAST members and associated individuals who attend the annual N.I. stroke conference, workshops and utilise the links and signposting in the website; enhanced networking and sharing of good practice across professions, stroke services, Health & Social Care trusts, and voluntary agencies; opportunities for study, research or to attend conferences and workshops relevant to stroke care via the new NIMAST bursary. These benefits are demonstrated through the high number of delegates attending events and also the positive feedback from evaluations / questionnaires following training events, networking sessions, workshops and annual conference. The purpose of our charity is not thought likely to lead to any harm and we do not provide a direct public service. The charity’s beneficiaries are individuals with a professional interest in stroke care delivery across statutory, voluntary and independent sectors, and consequently stroke patients and their families/carers benefit as a result of the provision of excellent stroke care in Northern Ireland. There is no private benefit for individuals who are NIMAST members or for those on the NIMAST committee.
