## **`ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE`** 

## **`Internal and external factors`** 

```
The Road Victims Trust has historically been wholly financed by charitable donations and grant making
trusts supplemented with occasional Government grants.
```

```
Since 2014 we have forged close links with the Offices of the Police and Crime Commissioners in
Bedfordshire,CambridgeshireandHertfordshire.Theselinkshavebeenfurtherdevelopedwiththesigning of
formal Service Level and Information Sharing Agreements.
```

```
The funding position of the RVT, in common with many other small charities, remains hugely challenging
and far greater emphasis and focus has been placed on the delivery of a financial strategy that enables
us to provide the best possible levels of victims care within the constraints of the budget.
