INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS IDCTA Annual Report 20221-22 P a g e | **2** ## ' - IDCTA Chairman s Report 2021 22 It has been another difficult year, with the covid virus still prevalent during 2021 making drivers and passengers having to isolate if coming into contact the virus. Many of the volunteer drivers have not returned to voluntary driving and many passengers have not returned to using the Ring n& Ride bus. As we entered 2022 we are now starting to get back to normal but we are still very short of voluntary drivers. Passenger numbers still remain below pre covid levels but are slowly increasing. We must give a special thanks to Alex and Lauren for all the work they have done to ensure our services continued through this very difficult period together with help from Dawn in the office and all the bus and volunteer drivers. Although Alex and Lauren still carry out some work from home the office is manned by someone every day. At the beginning of 2022 we embarked on a new project with a number of Community Transport Associations and working closely with Teignmouth/Dawlish Community Transport on a UK pilot project for a period of 6 months which was called “Stronger Together” which involved recruiting volunteers and providing training. We recruited Chris Varker who was one of our volunteer drivers to act as coordinator for the scheme. This would allow money to be available to help advertise for volunteers and also cover the cost of all training. The scheme was slow in starting, should have started in January but it was late February before it got going. The final results will be published in the 2023 report. When the scheme does finish towards the end of Aug., It will have also given Chris an insight into the workings of the office and we might be able to harness his skills within our staff structure. This will be discussed for the forthcoming year. Funding has now become very difficult as more charities have lost money during the pandemic and everyone is looking for grants to help them recover and cover their shortfalls over the last 2 years so there are large numbers of charities chasing smaller pots of money. I am sure Alan will give us all a full insight to this year’s financial results and what is needed for the future. After many months of driver problems with the West Dart Bus we hope we have finally resolved the issue. Because of the driver shortage we had to ask Devon C.C. if we could temporally suspend the school run towards the end of 2021 for a period, while we tried to recruit a new driver which they agreed to, but this caused us a drop in income for this period and will have affected our budget for the end of the year. We look forward to a new era with the pandemic behind us and hopefully our organisation will grow stronger in the coming years. - David Simpson IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **3** ## _**Staff & Trustees**_ ## **Ivybridge & District Community Transport Association** Unit 15, The Watermark Erme Court, Leonards Rd, Ivybridge.

The challenges of working through the pandemic, working remotely and changing our services as needs demanded, took its toll on staff. We returned to a hybrid of working remotely and reopening the office. As the year went on we managed to staff the office every day until towards the end of the financial year we were once again facing the perennial problem we have of insufficient room in the office for the number wishing to use it. The improvements made to our system to allow more efficient remote access have helped this greatly. We have unfortunately this year been plagued by health problems (unrelated to covid). Rick Green suffered a shoulder injury then a wrist injury preventing him from driving for some months. Rick has since left us to work for the Town council so we see him often & wish him well. Very Sadly Geoff Doyle suffered some considerable health issues and was hospitalised, then just when he was recovering and eager to return he was struck down tragically and has been left permanently disabled. We greatly miss Geoff & thanks go to him for all his hard work stepping in to fill the gap when Rick was injured (as did Steve Maslen). Geoff was a stalwart, always available to help out when other drivers were unavailable. We are told he still talks fondly of Ring & Ride. Tony Hemmings (West Dart bus) had to stop driving due to health problems and after a very long time waiting for NHS & DVLA to make decisions it became necessary to replace him as a driver (he still maintains the west Dart Bus). In Tony’s absence Claudia Benzies and David Blair helped greatly driving the school run whilst we recruited a new driver. Recruitment was fraught with difficulties at that time and as a result we had to suspend that service for two months with the subsequent loss of income. Dave Blair retired as West Dart Bus Liaison officer but kept coming back to help with our driver shortages. A huge debt of thanks is due to Claudia who as well as being a committee member representing the West Dart Bus, drove much of the school run during the arduous winter months and took on the role of Liaison officer until we could fill that role. We finally replaced Tony as driver with John Mills who has been a great help and has also helped out with Ivybridge & South Brent routes occasionally. We have appointed Rebecca Rumble as liaison officer. We lost most of our West Dart Bus volunteer drivers during the pandemic but can now welcome Dave Hawkes and Caroline Charnley, who have been invaluable (& hopefully we have a couple more volunteers training in the near future). We do need more drivers for the West Dart Bus to resume a full service to anything like pre pandemic levels. Claudia is stepping down as committee member but is continuing to volunteer as a driver for the West Dart Bus and helping Rebecca in her Liaison Officer role. It is in great part due to Claudia that the West Dart Bus has managed to continue at all and still exists after the pandemic. IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **5** Steve Maslen has as ever been a huge help and has taken on extra duties so many times when we have been stretched. Even Steve this year had an (albeit brief) period of ill health; previously unheard of. A massive thanks to Steve for all his help & his unflustered mild manner when times are at their most challenging. We also welcome Bob Claassen who has been an enormous help. Expecting to drive occasionally or once a week, he has been willing to fill in and has as a result been driving three days and more a week. He has so quickly become an established member of the team it is hard to believe it is only last May that he joined us. Jane left us to move to Spain but returned to help out between jobs when we were most short staffed. A special thanks go to her for being able to help when we most needed it. Bill Anniss too as so often has been a great help as relief driver. Thanks to John Owens, Dave Simpson, Chris Varker, Andrew Bawn, Jack Aust, Christine Gunning and John Lassan for all helping out when we were short staffed. The Demands of the office and administration have if anything increased rather than reduced despite fewer passengers both on the Ring & Ride service and Volunteer Car service. Lauren as ever has ably held the fort and it must be recognised what a difficult year it has been for the fund raising role she undertakes. As always Lauren has been a huge help unflappable & cheerful. A huge thanks also goes to Dawn Laver who volunteers in the office twice a week, places so many of the volunteer car journeys and undertakes welfare telephone befriending as well as volunteer driving. She also really goes the extra mile helping out some of our members in Sparkwell & Wembury. She has recently had her own health issues which brings home to us how much we rely on her. I will include a message from her at the end of this report. We undertook to get involved with the ‘Stronger Together’ Project for six months, in conjunction with Teignmouth & Dawlish CTA and under the umbrella of Mid Devon Mobility. It has certainly had its challenges but allowed us to work closely and strengthen our cooperation with Teignmouth/Dawlish CTA, to bring Chris Varker into the organisation to Coordinate that project (as well as bringing Judith tasker back into the office) and it has allowed us the resources to recruit and train a number of new volunteers. We hope therefore to be welcoming a handful of new volunteer bus drivers as well as a new part time bus driver. My own family commitments as well as the strain of the last couple of years compel me to reduce my hours in the organisation; to which end we are trialling splitting the position into its different roles; some of which I will continue but as a result we are welcoming Chris Varker to take on the role of Transport coordinator as well as driving some days. The committee will review the arrangement in the autumn. We hope this will reinvigorate our team, bring in fresh ideas and lead to a more efficient operation. My thanks to the Committee once again for their support and to our long suffering Accountant Adrian Pawlyn. Thankfully the proposed development of the South Hams District Council Leonards Rd Car Park, where we park our busses has been rejected so we no longer face the immediate need to relocate our busses & possibly the office. IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **6** Thankfully also the threat of imposing ‘O’ licences on Community Transport operators or increasing CPC training requirements seems to have either blown over or been overshadowed by other more pressing matters allowing us at least for the time being to carry on as we have. Finally a heartfelt tanks as always to all our volunteers without whom we could not operate, especially all the Volunteer Car Drivers who have continued through the pandemic or returned as conditions eased. -Alex Thom (Coordinator) ## **A Message from Dawn Laver - Volunteer; Office Help - Welfare Support - Car Driver** Good Evening All. Sorry I cannot be with you this evening. I am still recovering from being poorly. Cause still unknown. Quite likely sheer exhaustion with burning the candle at both ends & in the middle! ‘One volunteer is better than ten pressed persons!!’ It has been challenging in the office with more requests than drivers available. We do have super star drivers, however sometimes events overtake them. It is unfortunate to sometimes have to decline requests. There again very annoying when someone cancels at the last minute after a long search! Time catches up with a lot of passengers as they go to the garden of rest. Always a privilege & pleasure to have given some assistance either by car - bus or phone. A thankyou to the Tamar Valley Male Voice Choir for a lovely evening. Also to all those involved in putting on the event. Good to have additional funds for the Ring & Ride buses. Thankyou Lauren, Alex & team for all your good wishes and support. I want to be back soon to give a helping hand With all good wishes Dawn IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **7** ## Ring & Ride and Community Minibuses ## The Community Bus This MPV is now ten years old and has covered some 100,000 miles little more than last year. We have continued to use it to back up the Ring & Ride Buses, community groups increasingly for volunteer Car journeys for wheelchair users and where no other vehicle is available. The New 8 seat MPV (long wheel base is now our secondary vehicle for Ivybridge based journeys and has proved its worth for shopping trips with plenty of storage & is easy to drive. It now has covered nearly 10,000 miles. ## The Ring & Ride Buses The DfT 14 seat minibus has been in full service for four years now and is our primary Ring & Ride vehicle being in use almost every week day it has covered some 40,200miles. We have continued to run one DCC vehicle under a driver only contract with one supporting contract (which we have discontinued from September). We no-longer use this vehicle for any Ring & Ride services. We are have now transitioned to using our own vehicles for all the Ring & Ride services, with the maintenance, and checks that that demands. The West Dart Bus 16 seats, is now 8 years old (and has covered 64,000 miles). It carries out a school transport contract as well as Ring & Ride services. Although we have had the body work recently refurbished & the bus is generally in very good condition, due to its age it will be due for replacement in the near future. Passenger numbers increased promisingly in the first two quarters as we had expected however with a resurgence in Covid the increase then halted & numbers remained at about the same level for the remainder of the year with the result that overall passenger numbers were although about 40% greater than last year still just over 52% below the average for the previous 8 years. Unfortunately we had to suspend the weekly Plymouth service due to insufficient passenger numbers and the twice weekly journey to Newton Abbot has only returned to once weekly for the same reason. Otherwise our regular routes are back to pre-pandemic frequencies and destinations but on an altered timetable. Excursions have restarted but on a very limited basis, although they have been very popular again. Providing excursions at a reasonable rate whilst remaining cost neutral has always been a challenge. IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **8** The West Dart Bus resumed a Dartmouth service every other week and monthly service to Totnes and Newton Abbot, but as a Ring & Ride (pre booked) service rather than as Section 22 routes. We hope in the coming year to return to a weekly service to Dartmouth. This will be dependent on both passenger numbers and recruiting sufficient volunteer drivers. **----- Start of picture text -----**

IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **10** ## Voluntary Car Services Volunteer car services have continued to be a challenge with such reduced driver numbers able to offer their services. We have managed to continue offering a service & both thank and welcome the new drivers to our ranks. We welcome back many of our regular drivers who are returning after isolating. There have been increasing numbers of people needing medical appointments and our proportion of Medical to social welfare has been almost the same as last year with the significant emphasis on Medical needs. . Although considerably increased from last year passenger numbers are still significantly below or pre-2019 levels and we have been unable to find available drivers for significantly more requests than in the past. We have until now, very rarely been unable to fulfil requests, priding ourselves on our ability to find a way somehow to fulfil requests. I know that this increase greatly distresses both Lauren & Dawn when we can-not meet demand. Until we can recruit more drivers we are limited in that regard. Below is a table that shows the number of passengers carried from the parishes in our area. |**Year**|**Ivybridge**|**Prior**|**Shaugh**|**Cornwood &**

Grants this year have been few and far between despite the best efforts of Lauren who has tirelessly been applying to different funders but with little success. We always anticipated that this year would be very difficult with grants as so much had been spent the previous year. Alex has tried to keep our staff costs to a minimum and to this effect worked with Lauren and other Devon ring and ride schemes in making a successful grant bid to the Government Renewal Fund for the Stronger Together Fund which Alex will describe to you in his report. The net effect of obtaining this grant is that we have been able to offset some of our costs to reduce our loss this year. Passenger numbers are up on last year but this is no surprise, as the previous year included the COVID lockdowns. Numbers have recovered slightly but not back to pre-COVID levels and as a consequence fare income is lower than previously. Fuel costs have risen as have wages, we will need to review fares shortly. The accountant has included a figure of £13,000 for depreciation which is correct however, the funding model we operate is to fund raise for a replacement vehicle when the need arises as it is much easier to fund raise for a capital project than to fundraise for revenue expense. The overall loss this year for our model is £12,601. This is disappointing but not unexpected. Our team are working hard to increase passenger numbers and we will be adding to our fundraising team to take the weight off Lauren. I would thank all of our staff and volunteers for their hard work this difficult year. ## **Alan Hutson (Hon Treasurer)** IDCTA Annual Report 2021-22 P a g e | **13** ## Income & Expenditure Summary ## Income ## 2021- 22 ## Expenditure |Grants - Devon CC
