Chairman of Trustees’ Review 2024, 1st April Ending 31 March 2025 

What a difficult 12 months for the daily running of Dial-a-Ride (DAR). 

Overall, we are still struggling to recruit new volunteer drivers although we have managed to attract one or two but could still do with more. However, as the year progressed it slowly became apparent that we were having financial difficulties and solutions had to be found. Overheads were increasing, our fleet of buses was ageing and requiring more maintenance, plus general increases in insurance, rent and fuel etc.  So the Trustees decided we should approach the council to see if there was anyway they could assist us and after a couple of fruitful meetings, a light at the end of the tunnel started to come into sight.

Thanks once again to our dedicated office staff, Marianne, Fiona and Ken, who helped enormously through our financial difficulties by selling items through various car boot sales, online market sites and pick ups from the office. 

One of our biggest challenges now is to recruit some new drivers, which is proving exceptionally challenging, as people don’t seem to want to volunteer for no monetary reward. 

We are still not out of the woods at the moment but I feel more hopeful now than I did this time last year and again my personal thanks to all the office staff and volunteer drivers for helping to get DAR through another very tough year.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 

Thanks once again to our dedicated office staff, Marianne, Fiona and Ken, who helped enormously through our financial difficulties by selling items through various car boot sales, online market sites and pick ups from the office. 

One of our biggest challenges now is to recruit some new drivers, which is proving exceptionally challenging, as people don't seem to want to volunteer for no monetary reward. 

We are still not out of the woods at the moment but I feel more hopeful now than I did this time last year and again my personal thanks to all the office staff and volunteer drivers for helping to get DAR through another very tough year. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

To act as a resource to provide accessible community transport for people who find it difficult to use public transport due to illness or disability based on the following eligibility:- 

a) Age requirement is in line with qualifying for a national concessionary fare pass. 

b) Physical or mental disability (including those with chronic illnesses e.g. heart, pulmonary) who have difficulty accessing public transport. 

## **Public benefit** 

Providing accessible transport to those in need is in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and complies with section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities act when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. 

## **Volunteer review** 

We continue to be blessed by excellent volunteers; some have worked for the charity for many years. The charity however still needs more volunteer drivers to ensure that it can continue to provide the continued level of service to the local community. We would be delighted to hear from any new volunteer drivers to help support the service. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

We would first like to thank our funders for their support and all our volunteers and staff who without everybody's help it would not have been possible. During the last financial year, Dial a Ride has continued to provide accessible transport to those in need acting as a vital lifeline. 

Passengers can book any number of journeys with one telephone call and they can book for others making the same journey. Nursing Homes, Group Dwellings etc can book an entire bus or buses for lunches or outings (when available). 

Passengers ring the office preferably 3 to 4 days before they want to travel and book their ride. Our booking clerk will work out the route to be as efficient as possible, collecting people in the same area with similar travel requests. The service is door to door for the passengers and a companion. Dial a Ride can be used for any purpose, whether you are visiting friends and relatives, have an appointment at the doctors or hospital or are going out to work or shopping.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

Incoming resources for the year amounted to £93,793 (2023: £117,327) and resources expended £134,989 (2023: £139,722). 

The charity made a loss in the year due to falling income combined with increasing operating costs as our fleet gets older. The charity sold one of the fleet vehicles to raise additional cash. 

Due to our financial issues we have had to increase our fares. We do this extremely reluctantly but it is necessary as we strive to find solutions to long term sustainability. 

It is the policy of the charity to monitor unrestricted funds which are free reserves of the charity to achieve a minimum level of £15,000. This will provide sufficient funds to cover management, administration, support costs and to respond to emergency applications for grants which arise from time to time. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

As always plans are in place to maximize the use of our current resources, maintain the existing fleet and continue to support as many people as we can in the local community. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The charity seeks to appoint trustees from those who share the same ethos. It seeks to identify those most suitable to bring a balance of skills and strengths to the board. Each trustee is given a job description which utilises their skills. New trustees are appointed by a majority of the trustees in office at that time. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The charity has a board of trustees who meet regularly and are responsible for its strategic direction and policy. 

## **Induction and training of new trustees** 

We have a policy for induction and training of trustees. As stated in our policy each trustee receives a training pack and are directed to guidance published by the Charity Commission. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks that the charity faces and confirms that systems are in place to monitor and control these risks and ensure that the necessary steps can be taken when appropriate. Any major risks to which the charity is exposed will be reviewed in an emergency trustees meeting.

## Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and District Dial-A -Ride 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and District Dial-A -Ride ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs where appropriate. The aim of each restricted fund is set out in these notes to the accounts.

Purposes of restricted funds: 

Restricted funds received and expended during the prior year were from the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme for use towards employee salaries. 

The restricted funds balance related to a donation of £25,000 received on 29/01/2019 from Grantscape's East Coast Community Fund towards the purchase of a new minibus. The grant had a 10 year restriction over subsequent use and disposal of the vehicle i.e. until 29/01/2029 which is being amortised evenly across that period.

## | Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and District Dial-A -Ride 

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Grimsby, Cleethorpes and District Dial-A -Ride (‘the Company’) I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## Responsibilities and basis of report 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## Independent examiner's statement 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2: the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4, the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
