## **Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO**
## **Trustees' Report**
The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the CIO for the year ended 31 December 2024.
## **Objectives and activities**
## _**Objects and aims**_
The object of the charity is to provide for the relief of physically and mentally disabled, aged or infirm persons by providing transport upon terms appropriate to their means. Transportation is provided by way of a bus service and associated amenities, specifically designed or adapted to meet the disabilities and requirements of such persons in Sherborne and District.
## _**Public benefit**_
The bus is on the road seven days a week, transporting the elderly and those with disabilities to lunch clubs, shopping trips, society meetings and day trips to a variety of destinations. As well as outings for pleasure, the bus is vital in providing transport for people to do their weekly shopping in Sherborne or Yeovil. People are collected from their homes, or care home, and taken into town or to their club or outing, and returned safely at the end of the trip. Often the bus makes two or three trips in a day. The users, from the local area, benefit hugely from the social support and interaction provided by the service offered.
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
## **Achievements and performance**
## Bus Hire
2024 has seen the bus hire maintain the level of the previous year. Care Homes have continued to book outings and the trips to the coast and surrounding places of interest have been well received. Weekly shopping trips to Sherborne and Yeovil are very important to users who cannot access the shops independently.
The mileage charge to users of £1 per mile which was introduced in May 2022, following years at 80p, has been maintained.
Maintenance costs for the bus were lower this year (compared to 2023), as there was only one significant breakdown which necessitated the bus being off the road for several days.
## Donations
We continue to be very grateful for donations from local organisations and people, including bus users. We were particularly touched to be the recipient of donations made at several funerals. We are also very grateful for small donations, (such as £10), made by bus users who are on low incomes but value the difference the bus makes to their lives and independence. We have also been fortunate to be successful with applications to charitable trusts and these have been greatly appreciated. Donations for the year are slightly lower as the income from grants was less.
## Fund-Raising
Our regular events took place in 2024, namely the Bridge Tea, Cake Stall and Turing Ride and were well supported as usual. We arranged a talk by a local celebrity (Sir Mark Sedwell) in March 2024, which was well attended. Due to the purchase of an electronic card reader, we are able to offer on-line ticketing, which works very well. We also used our card reader at the Cake Stall. We have recently purchased a new card reader which works on Wi-Fi and does not need to be linked to a mobile phone.
## Social Media
We have been able to develop our website and social media presence in 2024 and recently acquired the services of a digital champion. We see this as being an important step forward in improving the website and accessing other means of accepting donations. We shall be able to promote activities and accept on-line payments and donations more easily. There is still work to do is this area but we are pleased with the results so far.

## **Trustees' Report**
## **Financial review**
The surplus for the year before unrealised gains amounted to £20,393 (2023 : £20,011). At the year end the total reserves were £250,974 (2023 : £210,557). All funds are unrestricted.
## _**Policy on reserves**_
The current level of reserves is maintained in order to purchase a new bus within the next few years, once the current vehicle is deemed to be in need of replacement.
## _**Investment policy and objectives**_
We have continued to receive investment advice from a financial adviser from St James’ Place and made further deposits into our fund. During the year, on our adviser’s advice, we moved our investment from a basket of unit trusts into one consolidated managed unit trust. Our investment is now starting to perform well, following the period of volatility due to the war in Ukraine, rising inflation and political instability. We are confident that the long-term will show investment success.
## **Plans for future periods**
## _**Aims and key objectives for future periods**_
## Purchase of a New Bus
It has always been the intention of the Trustees to work towards purchasing a replacement bus in 2025/26. The current bus is over ten years old and will soon start to need more in the way of maintenance. Current time scale for delivery of a new bus is 12 – 18 months. Research was carried out, by a small group (including the bus drivers), in the summer of 2024. Their recommendation was to purchase the same make as currently (Iveco) and to use Courtside Conversions to carry out the necessary conversions as previously. At a Special Meeting of the Trustees in July 2024 it was agreed to purchase a new Iveco bus. The order was placed and a 25% deposit made with the expectation that the bus would be ready for service in late 2025/early 2026.
## _**Activities planned to achieve aims**_
We are hopeful that the operation of the bus during 2025 will continue to provide the service for which it is well-known. The charity intends to continue to operate the bus as previously i.e. to provide transport for the elderly and those with disabilities, living within Sherborne and the local area, to lunch clubs, shopping trips, society meetings and day trips to a variety of destinations.
Established fund-raising events, such as the Bridge Tea, Cake Stall and Turing Ride will continue and we are always mindful of new opportunities. Dates for future events during 2025 have been agreed and it is hoped that these will generate the usual level of funds.

## **Structure, governance and management**
## _**Nature of governing document**_
Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO was founded as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 17 January 2020, and operates in accordance with its governing document dated 1 July 2020. The members liability is limited to £1. The charity reference number is 1187433.
## _**Recruitment and appointment of trustees**_
Trustees are appointed, in accordance with the Constitution, for a term of five years, by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. In seeking individuals for appointment, the charity trustees have regard to skills, knowledge and experience required for the effective administration of the charity.
## _**Induction and training of trustees**_
Trustees are inducted by the Chair and given written copies of the Constitution and Trustee Responsibilities. Training is undertaken as appropriate to their existing skills and experience. All Trustees receive Safeguarding training and a copy of the Safeguarding Policy and Procedures.
Trustees are also required to sign a Trustee Eligibility Declaration.
## _**Organisational structure**_
The day-to-day running of the charity operation is administered by the Bus Manager, Mr John Miller, in consultation with the Chair and a designated trustee. The trustees meet every three months or more frequently if required, and an AGM is held annually, in accordance with the Constitution.

## **Trustees' Report**
## _**Major risks and management of those risks**_
## _Assessment of risk_
The principal risk to the CIO is that the bus ceases to be roadworthy, or is rendered unusable for any other reason, and a replacement needs to be purchased sooner than anticipated. The CIO manages this risk by regular maintenance of the vehicle, as well as ensuring adequate cash reserves are held to finance a replacement. A secondary risk is that the current Bus Manager and volunteer drivers are unable to continue in their roles and new drivers have to be found in order to be able to continue the service. The CIO manages this risk by ensuring there is an adequate pool of available drivers to mitigate for any departures.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO ('the charity')**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2011 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Sherborne Voluntary Ambulance CIO as required by section 130 of the Charities Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].
