Where it is available?

What it costs:

Dorset Partnership for Older People Project (Dorset POPP) provided start-up funding for this Scheme, with the aim that it would become self-funding. Donations are requested (volunteer drivers are paid mileage expenses at 50p per mile). The driver will provide an envelope for your donation.

How to access or apply for it:

Telephone 01202 885559 to register.

What to expect then:

Once you have registered, you will be given the telephone number of the Co-ordinator in order to make a future booking.

Additional information:

Our drivers are volunteers and use their own vehicles. The scheme normally operates Monday to Saturday but if you need help on a Sunday, this may also be possible.
