I found the thank you note that went alongside this award from South Central Ambulance Service over the weekend. The award was for the contribution from Volunteer Driver Service throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. I’ll put them both together from now on :0)

**We made it**
Today is the one-year anniversary of our first journey as Volunteer Driver Service Community Interest Company. The map below shows all the client and volunteer driver locations from that year. The routes are from the last 30 days. VDS CIC makes a really positive impact to all those people.

If you’d like to help us keep providing journeys for many years to come, you can donate here:
