Ilkley & District Good Neighbours Community Transport

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To provide a community transport service for such of the inhabitants of Ilkley, Addingham, Burley-In-Wharfedale and Menston and its neighbourhood who are in need of such a service because of age, sickness or disability (mental or physical), or poverty, or because of a lack of availability of adequate and safe public passenger services.

The charity's main activities

Ilkley Community Transport provides transport for disadvantaged residents throughout our locality. We also assist voluntary and community organisations, charities and local authorities by providing the accessible transport and driver training necessary to achieve their own objectives.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

John Jewitt

Very sadly in August 2022 we lost John. He was one of the founders of the charity and a long term and active trustee. His legacy will live on the organisation.

Achievements and performance

The pandemic largely prevented any activity before July so there were effectively nine months of operation in the year. This followed a year with very little activity which is reflected in the prior year comparisons in the accounts. At the end of June our new coordinator, David Steel was appointed, and he has established himself effectively in managing the office operations and keeping the buses safe and legal to use, as well as helping with the driving.

We continue to operate 3 minibuses and a community car lift scheme. During the year we completed over 200 bus hires for 29 groups with 115 of the passengers using the lift. The buses covered nearly 8,000 miles during the year, supporting a range of local organisations enabling a regular supermarket run and a wide variety of social, cultural and sporting activities for young and old alike.

We provided 70 car lifts mainly for medical appointments, including Covid vaccinations in the early part of the year.

We are most grateful to the following organisations for financial support provided during the year:

National lottery community fund - Support to staff and office costs Ilkley Town Council - Support to staff and office costs Bradford Council - ARG Coronavirus recovery fund

The Trustees would like to thank not only our own volunteers but also the Community Action Ilkley co-ordinator Mary Hamilton and all the office volunteers for their unstinting efforts throughout the year. We would like to emphasise to them that by helping us to operate, they are also helping many other voluntary and community groups to achieve their aims.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £9,391, including net expenditure of £24,102 on unrestricted funds and net income of £14,711 on restricted funds.

3

Ilkley & District Good Neighbours Community Transport Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022

Reserves policy

The trustees believe there is no need to set aside specific reserves within the annual report and accounts. All potential liabilities would be adequately covered by available funds. The only unbudgeted liabilities would be major repairs to one or more of the buses. In the event that sufficient funds were not readily available to cover a repair, the trustees would have the option of disposing of one vehicle either to avoid the repair cost or to provide funds to repair another bus.

The trustees are of the opinion that the value of the fixed assets of the charity, namely the minibuses, should be considered as unrestricted funds. This is because they are held for use by the charity to achieve its charitable objectives.

In the event that unrestricted funds increase to a level that is more than adequate to cover any potential bus repairs and other budgeted liabilities, the trustees will consider deeming a proportion to a reserve for a future bus purchase, given the significant cost of such vehicles.

The trustees will review the adequacy of the unrestricted funds at least once a year, and prior to any major expenditure on vehicle repairs, these reviews to be documented and held with the trustee minutes.

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £37,010.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

approved by the board of trustees on 3/11/2022

Ilkley & District Good Neighbours Community Transport

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To provide a community transport service for such of the inhabitants of Ilkley, Addingham, Burley-In-Wharfedale and Menston and its neighbourhood who are in need of such a service because of age, sickness or disability (mental or physical), or poverty, or because of a lack of availability of adequate and safe public passenger services.

The charity's main activities

Ilkley Community Transport provides transport for disadvantaged residents throughout our locality. We also assist voluntary and community organisations, charities and local authorities by providing the accessible transport and driver training necessary to achieve their own objectives.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

John Jewitt

Very sadly in August 2022 we lost John. He was one of the founders of the charity and a long term and active trustee. His legacy will live on the organisation.

Achievements and performance

The pandemic largely prevented any activity before July so there were effectively nine months of operation in the year. This followed a year with very little activity which is reflected in the prior year comparisons in the accounts. At the end of June our new coordinator, David Steel was appointed, and he has established himself effectively in managing the office operations and keeping the buses safe and legal to use, as well as helping with the driving.

We continue to operate 3 minibuses and a community car lift scheme. During the year we completed over 200 bus hires for 29 groups with 115 of the passengers using the lift. The buses covered nearly 8,000 miles during the year, supporting a range of local organisations enabling a regular supermarket run and a wide variety of social, cultural and sporting activities for young and old alike.

We provided 70 car lifts mainly for medical appointments, including Covid vaccinations in the early part of the year.

We are most grateful to the following organisations for financial support provided during the year:

National lottery community fund - Support to staff and office costs Ilkley Town Council - Support to staff and office costs Bradford Council - ARG Coronavirus recovery fund

The Trustees would like to thank not only our own volunteers but also the Community Action Ilkley co-ordinator Mary Hamilton and all the office volunteers for their unstinting efforts throughout the year. We would like to emphasise to them that by helping us to operate, they are also helping many other voluntary and community groups to achieve their aims.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £9,391, including net expenditure of £24,102 on unrestricted funds and net income of £14,711 on restricted funds.

Ilkley & District Good Neighbours Community Transport Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2022

Reserves policy

The trustees believe there is no need to set aside specific reserves within the annual report and accounts. All potential liabilities would be adequately covered by available funds. The only unbudgeted liabilities would be major repairs to one or more of the buses. In the event that sufficient funds were not readily available to cover a repair, the trustees would have the option of disposing of one vehicle either to avoid the repair cost or to provide funds to repair another bus.

The trustees are of the opinion that the value of the fixed assets of the charity, namely the minibuses, should be considered as unrestricted funds. This is because they are held for use by the charity to achieve its charitable objectives.

In the event that unrestricted funds increase to a level that is more than adequate to cover any potential bus repairs and other budgeted liabilities, the trustees will consider deeming a proportion to a reserve for a future bus purchase, given the significant cost of such vehicles.

The trustees will review the adequacy of the unrestricted funds at least once a year, and prior to any major expenditure on vehicle repairs, these reviews to be documented and held with the trustee minutes.

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £37,010.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.
