Objects of the charity, principal activities and organisation of the work The Charity’s objects and principal activities are to be performed for those within the Borough of Nuneaton & Bedworth and its surrounding districts.

The objects are to:

Developments, activities and achievements this year

e Medicar

Medicar Transport started to pick up this year following a huge dip the previous year in people requiring transport to their medical appointments, mainly due to GP surgeries still opting for more telephone appointments in place of face to face, and hospital appointments working on their backlog due to the Coronavirus. Our volunteer miles and hours were less than half than pre-pandemic levels, but we are starting to get busier.

Page 3

VOLUNTEER FRIENDS (A company limited by guarantee)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31*t MARCH 2022 continued

The volunteer drivers’ undertook journeys in 2021/22 covering over 57,814 miles and contributing 6,974 hours of their time.

e Supported Shopping Service

Our Supported Shopping Service resumed this year to a once-a-week shopping trip to ASDA, Nuneaton for clients requiring assistance to carry out their weekly shopping. Due to a slow start and low client numbers and a shortage of shopping escort volunteers, we decided to stop the Friday shopping trips and just run it on Wednesdays, this has worked well so far, and we'll monitor the situation as to whether or not we need to reintroduce the shopping service on an additional day during the week.

In total, our volunteers gave 3,335 hours of their time to help us deliver this valuable service.

« Public Health ~ Vaccine Transport

In addition to the usual Medicar trips for medical related appointments, our volunteer drivers have been transporting vulnerable members of the community to get to their Covid and/or Flu vaccination appointments. In additional to the Medicar Stats mentions above, our volunteers drivers did 1,285 miles and transported 93 clients to their covid / flu vaccinations.

Our Dementia Choir restarted this year following the Coronavirus pandemic. However, it’s been a slow start as many still lacked the confidence to get back to “normality”. We sadly lost a few choir members during the pandemic, but we have started promoting and building the group back up.

e Friendship Group

Our Friendship Groups returned this year and how lovely it’s been to see so many familiar faces again and not to mention the wonderful smells coming from the VF kitchen, thanks to our wonderful volunteer cooks. Our groups have enjoyed two course lunches, garden centre and pub lunch outings, afternoon teas, raffles, and bingo and not to mention “DJ Jim” and his wonderful selection of music.

¢ Coventry and Warwickshire Co-operative Development Agency — Accelerate

We have continued working on the Accelerate program as a partner providing volunteering opportunities as well as online cooking and Food Hygiene and Safety courses. This year, we supported 17 participants across a wide range of activities to help them towards employment or training.

VOLUNTEER FRIENDS (A company limited by guarantee)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31° MARCH 2022 continued

Our workshop space has been transformed into a wonderful multi-purpose workshop suitable for wood craft and wood turning. Thanks to our team of enthusiastic and skilled volunteers, we are able to teach those who would like to learn new skills in woodcraft. The members have made some lovely items that VF has been able to sell to help generate some much-needed funds for the charity.

We have continued to provide DBS guidance and processing service for a number of organisations and community groups.

Towards the end of 2021 we successfully piloted a Youth Craft project provided for children who are home educated. This saw them using the facilities in our Woodcraft Centre under volunteer supervision, to produce coat hangers made from wood and hooks from copper piping, a serving / lap tray and a light up snowman to brighten their Christmas.

As the financial year drew to a close, we set up a new project called Crafty Friends which is a Friday Coffee and Craft Group, and we were finally able to re-introduce our Renal Transport service provided in association with West Midlands Ambulance Service. tn March 2022 we learned we had been nominated for a Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service and we started to plan our Summer Jubilee Garden Party to celebrate Her Majesty the Queen's Platinum Jubilee and thank our Volunteers and Staff for all their hard work and success during this very different and difficult period.

It goes without saying that current trends and financial constraints continue to have a significant impact upon our current work and developing plans, particularly in view of the fact that we have a leaner and more pared-back staff; but alongside the frustrations come opportunities for proactive and innovative thinking.

The ethos of voluntarism and the efforts of our volunteers mean that a high quality, professional and valuable contribution continues to be made to our community. On the one hand that doesn’t come at no cost but on the other its effects are invaluable and beyond price.

Equipment purchased which is fully funded by project grants is not capitalised but a sum equivalent to the cost is transferred to the Fixed Asset Replacement fund. For Motor Vehicles which are fully funded, the grants received for their purchase are treated as Restricted Funds and the annual depreciation charge is taken from that Restricted Fund until the vehicle is fully written down.

The charity aims to manage risk at all levels of the organisation and has written policies on Heaith and Safety, Child Protection and Volunteers. Risk management is actively carried out in relation to governance, finance, health and safety, equal opportunities and volunteer and staff safety.
