## **SHPVCS TRUSTEES REPORT 2025 – 2026** 

The South Holland Parish Voluntary Car Service continues to provide low cost transport, primarily for health and medical appointments, within the South Holland District of Lincolnshire. 

We have a Service Level Agreement with South Holland District Council covering numerous parishes in the South Holland District of Lincolnshire. Each member parish contributes an annual precept payment enabling the Charity to subsidise the cost of the voluntary transport provided. 

The demand for the service continues to increase. During the financial year April 2025 to March 2026 a total of 5349 journeys were made taking people to hospitals and other health care facilities. Our 46 Volunteer Drivers travelled 164,687 miles. 

As our running costs increase we continue to look at opportunities to attract grant funding and more volunteer drivers to ensure we can meet the increased demand for the services we offer. 

We thank our volunteers immensely for the ongoing support in ensuring the Charity meets its objectives and works within its financial constraints. We value the trust and respect placed in the Charity by people using the service offered.
