Publlc Benefit
The Board of Trustees are aware of their duty to ensure the artivities of CTEA further its charitabfe objertive5 and that
artivitles are for the purFK)se of public benefit. Trustees reaffirmed their commitment to advancing the charity's public
benefSt objectives. Initiatives are in place to analyse and evidence CtEA's social value for statutory bodies.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due
gard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
A¢hlevements and Performance
M•ln A¢hlevemeDt•
During 2024125 acmss our transport Servi￿$, we carried out 6648 journeys for 7187 passengers wTrth 350 new
registrations. Over the 12 months CTEA rdn 279 Community Groups in 34 separate locatlons - weekly, fortnightly, and
monthly providing support and friendshlp for over 3,271attendees, helping to meet our objective of reducing lonellness and
i501ation in the community.
Stsff
All cfEA stsff are employed by Aspire Together CIC IATCIC), which is commissioned to deliver CTEA servlces. The tsam
con515tently provldes high-quality, reliable, and affordable support to beneflciaries. Due to funding ending for a number of
inltlatives during the financial year a staff restrurture was implemented in January 2025. Desplte ongoing changes to
management StrUttu￿, stsff have remained resllient, professlonal, and tommitted to tK)th dlents and the organlsation.
Flnanclal Revlew
Flnanclal Po$ltlon
Financlal data demonstrates that ￿SelveS have been used to maintaln key servI￿s, while addltional funding Sources were
sought. Despite these efft)rts, sufficlent fundlng was not secured.
As reported last year, the voluntsry settor remalns under significant flnancial pressu￿ In the aftermath of the pandemic.
Total revenues for the year were £740.779 compared with £887,488 in the previous year, refletting the continued
hallenges of the last ￿e1ve months in securlng grant fundlng in a flnancially challenglng dimate. This has affected the
voluntary sector with funding opportunltles.
Totsl resources expended were £737,348, compared wlth £968,316 In the previous year, reflerting the continued
commitment from the board and management team to create a robust, effectlve, and sustalnable oryanisatlonal structure,
while reducing costs, in line with the organisatlon's strateglc aims. As Is commonplace In the voluntary sertor, the Continued
challenge of full cost recovery and acknowledgement of such from commissioners and funding bodies puts pressu￿ on
continuation of vital services and support.
