Public benefits

The benefits flowing from our activity of transporting patients to hospital alleviate the worry and stress incurred by the beneficiaries in making sure they are comfortably, safely and timely able to meet their medical appointments in the absence of reliable and suitable public transport available in the County Fermanagh area. The charity

regularly receives oral feedback, letters and cards of thanks from the beneficiaries who avail of the service provided. Donations flow into the charity from members of the public and the beneficiaries and their families. There is no harm arising from any of the purposes. The beneficiaries are those patients suffering from cancer and their relatives and friends whom the beneficiaries may feel more comfortable traveling alongside than just the volunteer driver. There is no private benefit flowing from any of the purposes.

What your organisation does

The engagement of volunteer drivers with their own means of transport to convey the beneficiaries to the cancer centres across Northern Ireland.
