Community
Transport Gloucestershire represents 28 organisations
operating voluntary car schemes and dial-a-ride
buses. Last year, more than 230,000 Gloucestershire
passengers were carried, 700,000 miles were covered
and more than 210,000 journeys completed.
Journeys to hospital, clinics
and doctor's surgeries are just part of the picture.
People isolated due to lack of access to transport
are able to go shopping, socialise, keep fit and
meet friends thanks to the services provided -
with many of the larger organisations contracted
to local authorities. The organisations work with
more than 400 volunteers contributing thousands
of hours of time, along with around 100 paid staff
across the county.
