Community Car Scheme

Did you know that Bakewell and Eyam Community Transport offer a community car scheme?

This volunteer-led service provides door-to-door transport to medical appointments for anyone living in the Derbyshire Dales and Hope Valley, and provides a valuable service for those who would otherwise struggle to attend essential healthcare appointments.

A little of your time can make a huge difference to someone’s health and quality of life – there is no regular commitment required; it’s completely flexible to suit your availability.

A friendly approach and access to a suitable car is all that is required and mileage expenses are reimbursed.

Many of the journeys are to rural surgeries so please don’t be deterred from offering your time even if you prefer not to drive into Chesterfield or Sheffield – there are plenty of opportunities for everyone.

If you would like information about using the car scheme or are interested in becoming part of this valuable rural volunteer service, please contact us on 01629 641920, send us an email: info@bect.org.uk or call into our office at Great Longstone Business Park for a chat.
