Please click here for timetable information Self-Drive Vehicles for Voluntary Groups The company operates a self-drive service for bona-fide voluntary organisations who are registered with Dial-a-Journey. Organisations wishing to hire must be registered as member organisations as legislation means we can't make vehicles available for hire to the general public. Many groups use our vehicles to take their members a variety of places for a number of purposes. We offer vehicles such as MPVs and 16 seat minibuses for hire at affordable prices. Drivers of minibuses must be holders of a current Midas certificate and hold a D1 minibus entitlement on their driving licence before being allowed to hire vehicles. We can also provide the required training (see details on the following page). We can also provide minibuses with drivers for Groups who don't have their own driver. Self-drive for family Members For further details on these services, please Dial 01786 465355 Training Our Community Transport Association qualified trainers deliver training courses such as the Minibus Driver Awareness Scheme (MiDAS) and Passenger Assistant Training Scheme (PATS). We also offer Vehicle Evacuation Training to raise awareness of what to do in the event of an accident. In addition to these courses, other members of staff have considerable experience in our field and are keen to give advice on a wide range of transport related matters to anyone in need (be it a small voluntary organisation, commercial operator or an individual).
TaxiCard Booking Service This service provides a subsidised Taxi journey for members of the scheme who are also unable to use conventional bus services, but who don't require the same level of specialised service of Dial-a-Journey or, depending on your mobility difficulty, you can have both memberships and mix and match services. Eligibility for this service may vary depending on the Council area in which you live, and each Council has their own membership form to complete. For more information please dial the Taxicard Office on 01786 465355
