The primary object of the Scheme is for the relief of the inhabitants of Shaftesbury and the surrounding areas of North Dorset and South Wiltshire who have need because of their age, poverty, mental or physical disability in particular through the provision of a community transport service. The scheme will transport a Client between a collection point (usually their home) and the location of their appointment. Normally this location will be such at it does not exceed a 100 mile round trip from the driver’s home. Whilst there is no obligation on the Scheme to provide transport to locations outside of this area this can be provided subject to the agreement and discretion of the co-ordinator. Drivers will wait for up to 3 hours whilst a patient is receiving treatment. The scheme holds a wheelchair accessible vehicle which carries over 30 people people per month to medical appointments. They also take wheelchair-bound people to social events, shopping and other non-medical appointments. During the last 12 month period over 3,500 trips have taken place taking residents to and from medical and non-medical appointments which has entailed almost 100,000 miles all carried out by 20 volunteer drivers. There are often no other transport methods available with public transport being almost non-existent in the area. The majority of residents are elderly and infirm and in need of assistance at both ends of their journey. Transport may also be provided for non-medical appointments such as social events, shopping, vets appointments, funerals etc at the discretion of the Scheme but priority will always be given to Clients requiring transport for medical needs.
Regular contact with local authorities and other key partners such as public health and the local NHS practices has led to the company supporting numerous projects as well as supporting half yearly covid, annual flu vaccinations and various other vaccinations including RSV and shingles. Other stakeholders include the town Council where the company forms part of the Transport Forum, members of which include local bus companies and Great Western Rail. The meeting takes place every quarter. The company works closely with the Local Authority, Royal British Legion branch and local charities as well as the community and residents of Shaftesbury and the surrounding areas. Ideas and suggestions are encouraged to enable the transport scheme to run more effectively and efficiently. Recent verbal consultations with local representatives, drivers and residents have led to the scheme increasing their minimum donations rates in order that the scheme may continue to run in a climate of reduced funding availability. Drivers continue to receive the HMRC expenses rate of 45p per mile, as allowed.
The two directors have received minor remuneration throughout the year of £1888 each to cover administration expenses. The directors, otherwise, provide their time to run the scheme on a voluntary basis without recompense.
