Why the community needs usWe have a fleet of 12 buses, all with passenger lifts and the latest safety equipment, providing a door-to-door service for our membership of 4000 disabled or older people. Our surveys show satisfaction with all elements of the service, and we encourage a member-led ethos. Our combination of voluntary and paid work enables us to work flexibly, with evening and weekend journeys undertaken to fit with members' varied needs. An escorted service is available for high dependency passengers.
Our impact on the communityWe have used the Social Return on Investment process to show that each £1 spent with us generates a benefit of at least £5 for our members.
