Community transport in South Staffordshire
Across South Staffordshire we have a range of excellent voluntary transport schemes that provide essential journeys for people who are unable to use or have difficulty accessing public transport.
Each scheme can be used for a wide variety of purposes including; making connections with public transport, doing the weekly shop, medical appointments, or just for visiting friends. For those schemes that operate larger vehicles this also provides the opportunity for group transport to activities in South Staffordshire or further afield.
