## **VOLUNTARY EMERGENCY SERVICE TRANSPORT (V.E.S.T.) (Registered number: 02059997)** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. 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, Operations, Organisation and Funding.** 

VEST is a company limited by guarantee without share capital and is a registered charity. It is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association that were last amended on 26 September 2013. 

VEST operates a fleet of specially adapted vehicles providing a door to door transport service to people for whom the use of conventional public transport presents difficulties due to restricted mobility through illness, age, disability or isolation. VEST serves the residents of Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. It operates three services: Community Transport (CT), Dial-a-Bus and Ring & Ride (DR). CT is the purely charitable element of VEST. Both the DR services are operated on behalf of the Cardiff and Vale Local Authorities on a net cost recovery basis. 

Community Transport currently owns and operates five large (16 or 17 seat) minibuses providing a scheduled transport service to Day Centres, clubs and charitable organisations such as the Stroke Association, Age Concern, the Parkinson's Disease Society and the Sight Life Wales. Around these scheduled bookings, and subject to the availability of vehicles and drivers, it also provides a transport facility to registered groups and individuals wishing to travel to and from any UK destination. Community Transport offers its services every day of the year. 

DR provides two services. Dial-a-Bus operates one large (13 seat) minibus. It is a bookable, scheduled 'door to town centre and return' shopping service that runs each day except Sundays. It serves five areas of Cardiff on two and a half weekdays and the Vale of Glamorgan during the remainder of the week and Saturdays. Ring & Ride provides a bookable 'door to door' bus service within the City of Cardiff operating from 9:30 to 16.00, Monday to Thursday, 09.30 to 15.30 Friday. It has a fleet of six smaller minibuses. The DR fleet of seven vehicles is owned and capitalised by the Local Authorities. 

The operation and finances of VEST are the responsibility of the Directors, who are also Trustees under the Charities Act and hold their posts in an honorary capacity. In shaping the objectives for the year and planning its activities, the Board has considered the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit. The Charity gives careful consideration to ensuring its activities are accessible to all eligible users from all aspects of the Community. 

Overall day-to-day operation of VEST is the responsibility of a salaried full time manager paid from CT's funds, to which the Cardiff and Vale local authorities make a 15% gross salary contribution. Community Transport is dependent upon trained volunteer driver/carers to operate its services. At year-end two administrative staff and eight full-time drivers/carers were employed on the provision of the DR services. These staff are paid directly on an agency basis by the local authorities. This sum does not go through the VEST accounts but is quoted in the published accounts to satisfy the Charity Commission's SORP requirements. In total 11 full time paid staff were employed by VEST during the year. 

The main sources of funding for Community Transport are fares, grants from Cardiff County Council Adult Services Department, a bus services support grant, the local authority's manager's salary contribution, donations, fund raising activities and interest on Community Transport's reserves.

## **(V.E.S.T.) (Registered number: 02059997)** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Review of activities and future developments** 

2021/22 was our fifteenth full year at our Portmanmoor site. In November 2011, November 2016 and April 2021 we negotiated an extension of our 5-year lease on this site with our current landlord. 

The Covid-19 pandemic seriously disrupted services during the year. Most CT services were cancelled and the fleet decommissioned. DR services were transferred to other activities such as delivering medicines from pharmacies to individuals, food parcel deliveries etc. Some normal services have resumed as lockdown eases and there is a positive trend back to pre-COVID business 

Overall, during 2021/22 we received 19,527 requests for service (up from 9,770 the previous year), of which the customers subsequently cancelled 2,608 (down from 3,030). We were unable to service 1,338 requests due to the unavailability of a vehicle or driver at the date and time required, so that we serviced 15,582 requests. Overall during the year we satisfied 92% of demand, carried 19,303 passengers and the fleet covered 119,768 miles. 

Each year Community Transport (CT) needs to make a surplus of income over expenditure before vehicle depreciation of about £50k to service the vehicle replacement reserve. The current state of this reserve is satisfactory. Vehicles are replaced only when their reliability begins to cause concern. Delivery of a newly converted replacement 16 seater vehicle was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The average age of the CT fleet at the end of 2019/20 was 8 years & 10 months. 

There has been a rise in donations during the year to £9,305 (from £3,561). Fares income rose to a billed amount of £5,494 (from £281). The net result of all this is that CT had a loss of income over expenditure of £20,375. 

We have been advised that some funding for BSSG wil lcontinue to be forthcoming. 

Recorded data for VEST's safety statistics confirm no significant change in standards for the year (2021/22). As in previous reporting periods, all incidents and accidents, were investigated as a matter of routine, and were of a minor nature. Focused driver training is key to sustaining safety standards. Prior to being allowed to drive fleet vehicles, all drivers - whether volunteers or permanent staff - undergo training in compliance with the Minibus Driver Awareness Scheme (MIDAS) which has been developed by the Community Transport Association (CTA) and is nationally recognised and designed to enhance minibus driving standards and promote safer operations. 

Some marketing activities have been introduced to make the public at large more aware of the services we provide and how they can benefit from them. Our old web site has been replaced by a modern one with up to date articles anddescriptions of our activities and we maintain an active social media presence. 

The composition of the Board is unchanged. 

We are deeply indebted to our volunteers; without their excellent contribution the Community Transport service could not operate. Our sincere thanks are also due to our manager, Caroline Cook, our administration staff and drivers for their hard work and outstanding commitment in providing these widely appreciated services. Mrs Cook is leaving at the end of March and is being replaced by Richard Davies. The trustees wish to thank Caroline for all the hard work she has put in on our behalf, VEST will not be the same without her. 

There are no Restricted funds.

## **VOLUNTARY EMERGENCY SERVICE TRANSPORT (V.E.S.T.)** 

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of VOLUNTARY EMERGENCY SERVICE TRANSPORT (V.E.S.T.) for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of VOLUNTARY EMERGENCY SERVICE TRANSPORT (V.E.S.T.) (Registered number: 02059997)** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of VOLUNTARY EMERGENCY SERVICE TRANSPORT (V.E.S.T.) ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales which is one of the listed bodies. 

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 the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. 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)). 

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.
