Public Benefit Statement
The Trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Commission on exercising their powers or duties.
Objective and Activities
To preserve and protect human life and property by supplementing and supporting emergency services, statutory bodies and other organisations as deemed appropriate by the Trustees, in particular but not exclusively by providing 4x4 vehicles and drivers. Logistical support is provided to Hospitals, Doctors, Care Homes and to County Councils and to other Charities during events.
Achievements and Performance
2020 had been a difficult year for everyone and Community 4x4 Response is no exception, with the group being formed during lockdown. The COVID -19 pandemic prevented the Group from carrying out its usual training schedule but regular meetings were held via Zoom conference calls. Various e-Learning courses were adopted to ensure that the trustees were kept up to date as much as practicable but obviously no practical training could be carried out. The Group was, however, heavily involved with the NHS and local councils, distributing PPE and urgent medical supplies across the counties, predominantly Greater Manchester and parts of Lincolnshire, maintaining Covid regulations throughout.
Events that we are normally involved with were put on hold until the lockdown restrictions were lifted. This has had a huge impact on charity collections and donations, to the point that members were self financning the fuel used. Public Liability Insurance cover is provided by Zurich Insurance plc
