If you find it difficult to get to medical appointments, or our classes, you may find community transport a cost effective and supportive option.🚗 🌼 Community Transport Tuesday – Keeping Northern Devon on the Move 🌼
Community Transport is often a lifeline for people who have no other way to reach vital medical appointments.
💬 One client shared:
“I have to use the service for keeping my eye injection appointments every 8 and 10 weeks; my sight is greatly improved after the injections. I know of no other way I could get there…”
Thanks to funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, our partner network — including Braunton Volunteers, Holsworthy Rural Community Transport, Holsworthy Rural Community Transport, Ilfracombe Town Council Community Cars, South Molton & District Volunteer Bureau and Torridge Volunteer Cars, we’re expanding services so no one is left behind.
💛 Our volunteers don’t just drive — they bring peace of mind, compassion, and connection.
