Carol Gardner of Treasure Island asked for two trolleys to move oxygen cylinders to the patient's bedside when required. Two trolleys were purchased at a cost of £300.00,

Another inquiry was whether the Friends were able to purchase a wheelchair with a reclining back. The need for this type of wheelchair arises when children have hip spikers applied for congenital dislocation of the hips. Plaster of Paris is applied to the lower abdomen and legs to ensure the hips are rotated outward, which means the child won't fit in a normal chair, being unable to sit up and also wider than normal due to the plaster cast. Normally the parents have to hire a wheelchair from the Red Cross which rarely has a reclining back. The nurses then have to pack the child into the chair so that they can be taken home. The Friends were happy to purchase a wheelchair at a cost of £772.80. It was felt that the folder holders on the patients beds were in a very poor state and the Friends arranged funding for twenty holders at a cost of £401.85
