Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	The charity took delivery of the Triobike Trishaw in February 2021 and following training rides and route testing we commenced rides with passengers in August 21. We undertook 65 passenger rides in the year to 31 March 2022 (working within Covid guidelines). We provided regular rides to 3 care homes, 2 sheltered housing communities and a number of individuals. Feedback from the passengers and care homes was very positive, even when trips were of modest length, and appeared to contribute positively to their well-being. The charity makes no charge for the rides. In addition to the 4 Trustees, an additional 2 volunteers joined us to assist in the rides.
