The accounting year has been brought forward to 31/5.
Funding has been received from a number of local grant funding organisations to enable the initial purchase of a vehicle and fitting out with safety features and appropriate PPE protection to be used for transportation of people of all ages from their homes to local medical facilities inc hospitals, doctors surgeries, opticians etc where they have no other means of transport.
In addition to the vital work of the transport side of the charity, the charity also runs a number of standalone groups and Partners with others to provide community support. Within this period the charity has started and continues to run a computer training group to enable the isolated (and older generation) to connect with the digital world and learn how technology can be used in a positive way. An online singing group has run and was enjoyed by all those taking part.
