Community Car Schemes

The Community Car Schemes recruit volunteer drivers who use their own car to provide door-to-door transport. The Schemes are open to people who do not have reasonable access to other forms of transport. In Powys the priority for transport is for health appointments, but also includes journeys that meet everyday needs.

The drivers are paid expenses to cover the mileage they incur up to 55p per mile. Users are asked to meet some or all of the costs, but additional funding is needed to meet the full costs of operating the service.
