To achieve this we have a rota of volunteers who are ready to respond to requests for help from hospitals, hospices and health centres who need urgent items transported. These items include blood and blood products from our local NHS Blood Transfusion service, blood samples to go to laboratories for analysis, donated human milk from the donors to the two milk banks in our area and from the milk banks to the neonatal units, and blood to the two air ambulances in our area and prescription drugs to patients at home who are unable to collect them. Most recently we have started to support a ‘Virtual Ward’ concept at one of our hospitals which involves our volunteers transport blood samples collected at the weekends. The main hospitals we work with are Peterborough City, Hinchingbrooke, West Suffolk, Ipswich, Addenbrookes, Royal Papworth and the Rosie Maternity Hospital. We also assist a number of hospices and health centres, the East Anglian Air Ambulance and the MAGPAS Air Ambulance. Our service is available 24 hours a day 365 days a year. To support our work we raise funds via collections at local supermarkets, display stands at fairs, bike rallies and exhibitions, and talks to local community groups. ## **Achievements and performance** The trustees have adopted the Chairman’s Report for 2024/25, prepared by Mrs Cindy Dickerson, as the Achievements and Performance section of this Annual Report. The full text of the Chairman’s Report is reproduced below. ## **Chairman’s Report 2024/25** Our group is now approaching its 15th year and our achievements over that time have made the charity almost completely unrecognisable from where it began back in late 2010. Operationally, we have settled into completing well over 2,000 tasks per year and have recently completed our 20,000th task delivering urgently required blood, blood products, donated human milk and medicines free for our local NHS hospitals, air ambulance services, human-donated milk banks and hospices. 1 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Trustees’ Report (continued)** ## **For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** We have increased the number of volunteers on duty during the day to accommodate a significant increase in tasks we receive, and we are continuing to recruit as we take on more daytime delivery commitments including in the rapidly developing area of Virtual Ward tasks. We increased our controller team as the workload became a busy balancing act between answering the all-important calls from our hospitals, delivering and collecting daily to our air ambulances and organising scheduled deliveries for human milk, medicines and more recently, blood samples for our Virtual Ward hubs. Having started with less than 30 volunteers 15 years ago, our team of around 160 volunteers covered over 166,000 miles during 2024. They have given over 6,000 hours, which excludes the time they have offered in addition to making deliveries such as attending events, doing administrative work, controller duty, talks and presentations. It is so important to acknowledge that dedication by everyone involved. ## **Tasks completed** Recommencement of deliveries to MAGPAS began early in 2024 and in September, as the trial ended, the decision to continue supplying them was made due to its success. This has meant that the drop in medicine deliveries has now been replaced by air ambulance tasks and we are regularly hitting over 220 tasks per month. Last year our average number of calls per day was eight; this year it has increased to nine per day. Year on year our task profiles have changed little. Blood and platelets continue to dominate what we carry, closely followed by blood samples and donated human milk. Blood which we supply to the East Anglian Air Ambulance and MAGPAS Air Ambulance has been used almost 100 times on scene so far this year. All our service level agreements have been signed up for the next five years, a first for the charity, showing the NHS’s commitment to our service. ## **Our events, fundraising and donations** We remain in a strong position financially with a reputation for professionalism and reliability. During 2024, we continued to receive some incredibly generous donations. This has meant that we have been able to add to our fleet of liveried vehicles, introduce a new look website and update some of our outdated events merchandise. We are so grateful for any financial support, whatever the amount, to cover our vehicle running costs, volunteer equipment, operational and training costs. 2 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Trustees’ Report (continued)** ## **For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** We have many different streams of income including regular payments, talks, shopping online and pay as you earn. During the last 12 months we have joined JustGiving to add to the fundraising options which our supporters can now use to donate including tap and pay, QR codes and text donate. We also have a regular income from collecting and selling mobile phones and asking people to recycle used printer cartridges. Whilst we are aware other charity groups around us are struggling for funding, we cannot thank our regular supporters enough for their contributions and we certainly cannot be complacent about the funds we raise ourselves. ## **Our liveried fleet of vehicles** The trustees were made aware that the BMW RT1250 model was going to become obsolete by the end of 2024. We decided to invest in two new bikes instead of the usual one being replaced each year. This was to take advantage of the discounts available and to put ourselves ahead of the position we were in previously where no suitable bike was available for some time. We decided to keep the older Yamaha FJRs as they are still reliable and relatively low in mileage, which means the bike fleet has now increased to eight. The vans and car are all still low mileage and will remain in the fleet. ## **Our operational procedures & policies** Our operations team has been strengthened, we have reviewed, renewed and updated where necessary our policies, insurances and operational risk log together with introducing an updated DBS process, meaning this can now all be completed online. In summary, 2024/25 has been another very successful year for the charity. We have an incredible team of trustees who work well together, respect each other and are always there for guidance and support. Our volunteers, responders, controllers and fundraisers are reliable, trustworthy and always willing to act quickly when needed. With the help of our loyal and generous supporters, we do what we can without complaint, often with a bit of banter and always proud to represent SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire. 3 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Trustees’ Report (continued)** ## **For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **Financial review** The charity reported total income of £82,408 in the year ended 31 March 2025 (2024: £104,921). Expenditure for the year increased to £66,403 (2024: £64,472), reflecting the costs of maintaining and expanding our fleet. Despite the reduction in income compared to the prior year, the charity achieved a surplus of £16,005 (2024: £40,449), demonstrating continued financial resilience. We were fortunate to benefit from the generous support of funders and donors during the year. A grant of £18,046 was received from the Mark Benevolent Fund to purchase a new fleet motorbike, and Precon Products kindly donated £2,500 towards the maintenance of another bike. These contributions enabled us to strengthen our operational capacity through the purchase of two new motorbikes during the year. The charity also invested in a new website, capitalised as an intangible asset with a net book value of £2,898 at year end, which will support both fundraising and operational effectiveness in future years. At 31 March 2025, total funds stood at £265,710 (2024: £249,705), of which £51,433 (2024: £39,731) were restricted. Unrestricted reserves increased to £214,277 (2024: £209,974). Cash at bank and in hand remained strong at £158,354 (2024: £155,783), providing a robust financial base to support the charity’s work. ## **Reserves policy** The trustees aim to maintain reserves equivalent to approximately two years of running costs in order to safeguard the charity’s ability to meet its obligations and to continue operations in the event of unforeseen circumstances or fluctuations in income. Current levels of unrestricted reserves meet this policy and place the charity in a secure financial position. ## **Post year-end developments** Following the year end, the charity was awarded a grant of £30,000 from the People’s Postcode Trust. This has been used to purchase a new van to support both operational activities and events, further strengthening our service capacity. The trustees are satisfied that the charity remains in a healthy financial position with adequate reserves to meet its ongoing commitments. There are no material uncertainties that cast doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 4 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Trustees’ Report (continued)** ## **For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **Structure, governance and management** The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), association model, registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales (charity number: 1189346).

Basis of preparation** ## **1.1. Basis of accounting** These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with - the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 - and with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. ## **1.2.

Accounting policies** ## **2.1. Income** ## _Recognition of income_ 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. ## _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. ## _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 goods_ Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. 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. ## _Donated services and facilities_ 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. **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk 11 **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **2.1. Income (continued)** ## _Volunteer help_ The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. ## _Income from interest, royalties and dividends_ This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. ## **2.2. 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. ## _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. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, e.g. allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. ## _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. 12 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **2.3. Assets** ## _Intangible assets_ 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 5.2. They are valued at cost. ## _Tangible fixed assets for use by charity_ These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £100. They are valued at cost. The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 6.2. ## _Stocks_ Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value. ## _Debtors_ Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk 13 ## **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)** **For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **3.

Prior year comparatives** The prior year comparatives have been reclassified to better reflect the nature of income under the Charities SORP headings. This reclassification has no effect on the total income, expenditure, or funds carried forward. **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk 21 **SERV Suffolk & Cambridgeshire** **Registered Charity Number 1189346** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2025** ## **13. Transactions with trustees and related parties** None of the trustees have been paid any remuneration or received any other benefits from an employment with their charity or a related entity in the current or prior years. During the year trustees and other related parties made donations to the charity totalling £65 (2024: £38). In addition, trustees purchased teamwear at cost of £18 (2024: £7). The charity reimbursed trustees £496 (2024: £413) in respect of a garage rental used for the storage of charity equipment. This arrangement has since been transferred to a direct payment to the landlord. The charity also reimbursed advanced qualification fees for trustees amounting to £70 (2024: £127). Other minor reimbursements of £13 (2024: £nil) were also made. The charity reimburses trustees and volunteers for expenses incurred wholly and exclusively on behalf of the charity. Such reimbursements are not considered related party transactions and are therefore not included in the disclosures above. ## **14. Post balance sheet events** Subsequent to the year end, the charity was awarded a grant of £30,000 from the People’s Postcode Trust. These funds have been used to purchase a new van to support the charity’s operational activities and fundraising events. This is a non-adjusting event after the reporting date and does not affect the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. 22 **Registered address:** SERV Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, Chiltern, Building 3, Funthams Lane, Whittlesey, Peterborough, PE7 2PB www.servsc.org.uk
