24-hour Accessible Transport

“Nothing is accessible unless you can get there”

A six-strong fleet of adapted, wheelchair-friendly, fully accessible vehicles transport disabled people to work, doctor’s appointments, shopping, holidays and other leisure activities 24 hours a day. We believe this is the only 24 hours a day accessible transport service in the country and we are very proud of it!

Driving Centre

The Driving Centre provides driving assessments, tuition and transfer advice. Assessments help drivers regain their independence and return to driving in safety. We also assist with identifying the right adaptations to help you comfortably control your car. Driving tuition is available for learner drivers with disabilities or for drivers re-training to use adaptations.
