OBJECTIVES AND AcfIviTIES
Objectives gnd aims
Our primary objective is to otrer a sustainable transport servic¢ for individuals who hav¢ di￿]¢u[tY accessing regular
transportation. We aim to bridge the transportation gap through a model that relies on volunteer drivers, ensuring the
service is affordable, comtnunity-driven, and tailored to the specific needs of users.
Key activities over the past year have included..
Door-to-door transport s¢rvi¢¢s for medical appointments, shopping trips. and social activities.
Community events transportation to encourage social inclusion and participation.
Special focu5 on elderly care by providing transport to ¢ld¢rly ¢itiz¢ns who may Struggle with mobility or accessing
public transport.
Achievements and performance

network of volunteer drivers and partners. Key achievements include..
Increase in service users.. We provided transport to ov¢r 850 indhviduals despite the rocky start to the year with the
minibus, an increase of l % compared to last year.

our services and acquire additional resource5, including n¢w vehi¢l¢s and training for volunteer drivers. We aim to
