Who Can Use this Service?

If you cannot use a car, and find it difficult to access public transport, then this service is designed for you. To make your first booking, register with us to become a member. Membership is free.

How Does it Work?

The bus will call at your front door, and will take you to and from anywhere in the Bishop’s Castle area. The minibus has low steps, a passenger lift, and can accommodate wheelchairs. The driver will be able to help you on and off the vehicle, but please note that our drivers are not trained in lifting.
