The Business Office has moved from the Department of Dermatology at the Churchill<br />
Hospital, Oxford to 68 Church Way, Iffley, Oxford, OX4 4EF. This has given us more<br />
space and Christine Cherry, who has retired from the National Health Service, is now<br />
the administrator of the office continuing the active rôle that she has had since the<br />
EPUAP was founded.<br />
The audited financial accounts provided to the Charity commission are included in<br />
this issue of the EPUAP <strong>Review</strong>.<br />
Interest for our eighth annual meeting in Aberdeen, Scotland (5–7 May 2005) is<br />
extremely robust and, judging by the number of commercial exhibitors that have signed<br />
up as well as the scientific and social programme which is planned, it will be one of the<br />
best meetings since we began. The meeting is preceded by a one-day Tissue Viability<br />
Society meeting whose theme is ‘Fundamental principles and good practice in tissue<br />
viability.’ Individuals who attend this meeting will be given a discount on the registration<br />
fee for the EPUAP meeting to encourage their attendance for both meetings.<br />
Professor Terence Ryan, one of our founding trustees, has received a grant for wound<br />
care and pressure ulcers in developing countries to be administered through the EPUAP.<br />
If you are involved in pressure ulcer education or treatment in developing countries<br />
please write him directly at the Business Office.<br />
The Business Office would like to wish all of our members and corporate sponsors a<br />
joyous holiday season and a prosperous and peaceful 2005!<br />
Dr George W. Cherry<br />
Secretary/Treasurer<br />
