As a not for profit, social enterprise, Travel Assist has designed the business model on the foundation of their two major social objectives, which are;

However, as the business has developed, Travel Assist has recognised that it has a responsibility to look at the impact the work carried out by the organization has on the environment. Therefore, a third social objective has been added:

(3). Sustaining responsible use of energy to minimalise the impact on the environment.
