Community Transport Scheme
Community Transport SchemeWhat does it do?
On behalf of Bexley Care Trust, we run a mobile health clinic, Health on Wheels, which can be hired by small groups for Health awareness, community outreach and social inclusion programmes.
We also provide Home-To-School transport for SEN (Special Educational Needs) pupils of schools and colleges who would otherwise find journeys difficult.
With support from the London Borough of Bexley we established a food accessibility scheme, providing a Hop 'n' Shop bus to help the elderly, disabled and parents with small children to access shops and markets.
Transport for London also supported us in the establishment of a small community bus route, the 938, which runs between Erith and Bexleyheath via Crayford and Hall Place two days a week.
This work is undertaken to ensure our long-term financial sustainability.
