## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
## **for the Year Ended 31 December 2021**
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and aims**
The objective of the charity is to provide an affordable bus service to the inhabitants of the local community who are in need of such a service because of age, sickness or disability (mental or physical) or poverty or lack of availability of adequate and safe public transport services.
Halesworth Area Community Transport Limited continued to operate as an association under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 until 31 December 2020. On 1 January 2021 it transferred the assets and liabilities of that entity to the CIO.
## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE**
## **Charitable activities for the public benefit**
During the year, we have had £10,000 sponsorship from the Co-op, £5,000 from International Chem, £2,000 raised by the Halesworth Golf Club, £500 from the Masons and £3,000 from a passenger who wishes not to be named. If it wasn't for all of these and the Covid grant of £10,000 then we don't think HACT could have continued with ease.
The Hoppa transported 303 passengers to Sole Bay Health Centre for their first and second Covid vaccinations. We cannot put into words how grateful we are to the team of drivers we have. They risked their own health at the start of this vaccination program to get all the residents of this area to have their jabs. It has been a mammoth task in unprecedented circumstances. The team at Sole Bay Health Centre have been amazing and made our job run so smoothly when problems have occurred at our end. We are very fortunate to have such a facility. Reydon shut their doors on Saturday 5th June for the last time.
We have worked closely with the Halesworth Volunteer Centre running the shopping service for them. We assisted with our buses and drivers for over a year ending on 12th April 2021 when the Hoppa commenced the 511 service. During that year, we delivered shopping on a weekly basis to around 84 residents. We clocked up 4,604 miles during this time, many hours driven on a voluntary basis. Halesworth doesn't know how lucky it is! We have worked together for the good of this community.
We have stopped driving for the Day Centre after many years. Sadly, over 80% of the passengers have either passed away or been placed in care since the pandemic began. They felt it wasn't viable to continue.
We have had to change our maintenance company due to being let down, and Hammonds have kindly taken us on.
We purchased a new Bus-A Ford Transit YN66 YCY and traded in DK12 BXZ in the transaction. It was sad to see DK12 go as she had been an old warhorse for us but the last bill of over £3,500 was just too much for HACT to warrant keeping her.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HALESWORTH AREA COMMUNITY TRANSPORT CIO**
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Halesworth Area Community Transport CIO**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Halesworth Area Community Transport CIO (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2021.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
