Ring & Ride  
Overview of Service

What is it?  A wheelchair accessible minibus taking people from their homes for shopping and other trips.

How is it provided?  By a minibus.  The driver will help people on and off the bus and help with shopping. Volunteers are also available request to accompany you and help with wheelchairs.  We also have our own (manual) wheelchair which can be loaded onto the bus for your use at the destination - if you need it, please reserve it when you make your booking.

The service is provided by HCT with the support of the Big Lottery & Devon CC.

Who can use it? 
Those who have no access to transport of their own, and difficulty accessing public transport. This applies both to households completely lacking access to transport and in other cases as well - e.g. in a young family where there is only one car and one parent goes out to work, the other parent and child/ren would be eligible.
