Group Hire

A minibus hire service is available for any community group, youth group or voluntary organisation. The minibus has 4 seats and will take wheelchairs. For a very reasonable hire charge we provide the vehicle, fuel and driver. Our vehicle can also be used on a self-drive basis. We will train and test your driver.

If you are elderly or infirm we can arrage a volunteer to drive you to a hospital, health centre, dentist, optician or day centre. We can also take you to visit someone close to you who is a hospital patient or give you a lift to catch a train or bus. All we ask is a donation to cover our running costs.
