Signed: Name: P£ i£K COLO￿lT Address: Ay Date: O>rl,./ i* ## **Chairman's Statement: Financial Year 2023-2024** The trustees have monitored the affairs of the Trust and are happy with the various investments and income. The trustees have met four times during the year to review the operations of the Trust. An AGM and an Ordinary Meeting for members were also held. Following the pandemic the use of our service by community groups has stabilised below prepandemic levels and our own excursions and weekly Rothbury shopping service for elderly residents remain popular. Our health transport service for elderly, disabled and mobility-impaired local residents using our own and volunteers’ cars continues to be a valuable and much used service, fulfilling about ten appointments a week. This year we have extended the Route 16 public bus service, which we operate on behalf of Northumberland County Council, in both coverage and frequency. The service provides access to the remoter parts of upper Coquetdale. To facilitate these services to the community we continue to liaise with the Rothbury GP surgery and with Northumberland County Council. We received funding to support our work from: The National Lottery Community Fund to support the running of our hybrid vehicle for the health transport service; the Coquetdale League of Friends to support the same service; Rothbury Parish Council; and Tarmac. We also received a number of donations. The charity did not carry out any fundraising activities of the kind covered by the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Fundraising Practice.
