All members (including individuals having functional roles) are volunteers and give their time freely, receiving no remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. **TAR** March **2012** 2 Operational meetings, to which all members are invited, are held normally monthly and are led by Area Leaders across the three counties of Shropshire, Staffordshire and Cheshire. ## **Related Parties** SSCBB is a member of the Nationwide Association of Blood Bikes and works alongside neighbouring blood bike groups to provide transportation of urgently-needed blood, drugs, human tissue, donated breast milk and any other urgent medical supplies to NHS hospitals & related organisations, primarily across the counties of Shropshire, Staffordshire and Cheshire. Blood bike groups exist across the UK and co-operate, via relays, to undertake long distance movements nationally. Services are set up locally with the relevant hospital trusts or related organisations and documented through Service Level Agreements (SLA). Regular reviews are held with NHS management to ensure services are maintained within the SLA and amendments or new services are formally agreed. SSCBB are privileged to have the continuing support and patronage of the Lord Lieutenants of Shropshire and Staffordshire. Anna Turner JP (Shropshire) has supported us for many years, as has Ian Dudson CBE KStJ (Staffordshire) up to his retirement mid 2025. The newly appointed Lord Lieutenant of Staffordshire, Professor Elizabeth Barnes CBE, was invited to continue Staffordshire’s patronage and gladly accepted. ## **Risk Management Considerations** The amount and type of risk that the charity is willing to take in order to meet its objectives is determined and monitored by the Trustees. Trustees take a risk-based approach to underpin decision-making about the kind of opportunities taken by the charity as well as how it operates and interacts with the public. To support growth and operational complexity, SSCBB continues to review and develop systems and processes. ## **Section C Objectives and activities** Our Objective as set out in the Constitution: “To relieve sickness and to preserve the health of the patients primarily, but not exclusively, in the Shropshire and Staffordshire area, by providing free transport services of urgently required blood products, human samples, breast milk, patient notes and medical equipment, not normally provided by the statutory authorities or NHS Trusts, that would normally be paid for by the said Trusts, allowing essential funds to be diverted back into patient care.” **Summary of the objects of the** SSCBB operate to ensure flexible & secure transport, using a 100% **charity set out in its** volunteer-supported team. **governing document** In some cases, the flexibility and zero charge of the service has facilitated treatment regimes that may otherwise not have taken place and in this way the charity adds incremental value to that which the NHS already delivers and directly benefits local communities. **TAR** March **2012** 3 In 2025 we completed 7,744 free of charge deliveries made by volunteer riders and controllers, using the charity’s fleet of specially adapted motorcycles and cars. In doing so over 335,000 miles were covered. During the year, a number of older Moto Guzzi bikes were replaced with new BMWs predominantly R1300s, as part of the charity’s strategy to have the bike fleet as solely BMW machines. Events and face-to-face collections took place throughout the year. Their core objectives remained - raising awareness of our activities supporting the NHS and - • securing donations **Summary of the main** • securing donations **activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to** The fundraising through donations enabled us to not only maintain our **these objects (include within** 365 day, 24 hour service across the 3 counties, but also to continue **this section the statutory** planned bike replacement as needed, invest in systems and training and **declaration that trustees have** maintain a reserve of funds ensuring that the charity and its important **had regard to the guidance** service is resilient and has future stability. **issued by the Charity Commission on public** A large number of volunteers are involved in teams, (many across more **benefit)** than one team,) supporting various areas of charity activity. Teamwork is very much part of the fabric of SSCBB and absolutely key to ongoing success. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** Our volunteer base fluctuated through the year, ending the year with 366 Members at year end. Many volunteers have trained in multiple roles (Rider, Controller, Speaker, Fundraiser) which serves to strengthen and support a very flat operational structure. You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. **TAR** March **2012** 4 Section D Achievements and performance ## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 2025 was the first full year we operated a car in each of the four counties, (Shropshire, Cheshire, North & East Staffordshire), allowing service to continue to be offered during weather conditions that would have made riding bikes unsafe. The trustees continued to be proud of the way members continue to operate and function. This ensured we could consistently provide continuity of service. Fleet maintenance was kept to its usual high standard. The continued dedication of our volunteers ensured our 24-hour cover remained, as well as all of the vital background services, and continued engagement with customers and supporters. In common with other charities fundraising is key to providing a 100% free-charge service. We are especially grateful to loyal supporters who continued to contribute in 2025 and to new donors who have been inspired by the service we provide. **TAR** March **2012** 5 ## **Section E Financial review** Due to increased risk, SSCBB now holds monies in reserve to cover a **Brief statement of the** minimum of 18 months of operational and capital cost. **charity’s policy on reserves** The Charity also recognises there exist several potential opportunities to expand services further (primarily due to the larger carrying capacity of the cars) and holds additional contingency reserve to cover potential higher costs of car replacement. **Details of any funds materially** None **in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. ## **Section F Other optional information** ## **Section G Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** **Signature(s) Full name(s)** Colin Cummins White Peter Allman **Position (eg Secretary, Chair, etc)**[Chair ] Secretary **Date** 15 / 07/ 2026 **TAR** March **2012** 6 |**SHROPSHIRE STAFFORDSHIRE CHESHIRE**

These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
 the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
 the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
**Donated goods**
**Contractual income and**
**performance related**
**grants**
**Offsetting**
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required
or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
**Grants and donations**
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
**Support costs**
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as
income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate
heading in the SOFA.
**Donated services and**
**facilities**
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
**Legacies**
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
**Government grants**
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
**Tax reclaims on**
**donations and gifts**
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the
donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift
and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or
the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.|||| ||||| ||Yes

**Intangible fixed assets**
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least
**Creditors**
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
**Provisions for liabilities**
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
**Basic financial**
**instruments**
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.
**Redundancy cost**
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
**Deferred income**
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
**Settlement of insurance**
**claims**
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
**Volunteer help**
**Governance and support**
**costs**
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
**Income from interest,**
**royalties and dividends**
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
**Income from membership**
**subscriptions**
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
**2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES**
**Liability recognition**
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
**Investment gains and**
**losses**
**Grants with performance**
**conditions**
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of
service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
**Grants payable without**
**performance conditions**
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.
They are valued at cost.
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5
They are valued at cost.
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
