Our corporate plan

For over 60 years, Shine has been involved in remarkable developments, which have brought about improvements to the lives of thousands of people. 

Shine’s Corporate Plan sets out our priorities and the outcomes we should be striving for.  It helps us focus on what matters most to our members, and helps them and other stakeholders, (such as our Trustees, the Charities Commission,  and auditors), hold the organisation accountable for delivering results we say we would. 

In 2022, we launched our latest Corporate Plan, informed by years of experience, expertise and most importantly, our members’ feedback and input.

Our knowledge of spina bifida, hydrocephalus, NPH and associated conditions has evolved so much, more so than ever, we understand the importance of careful management to prevent and reduce their effects on daily life, health and well-being. 

We have successfully progressed activities across each of the strategic goals we set out in 2022 and produce an annual report to show what we have achieved.

 

 

Our goals for 2022 - 2027

  1. Enabling babies and children with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus to achieve their potential
  2. Empowering young people with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus through knowledge, confidence and skills to manage their conditions and thrive
  3. Adults with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus have the choices and opportunities to live healthy and independent lives
