At Community Connexions, we provide transport for people of all ages across Gloucestershire and beyond who would otherwise struggle to get where they need to go. This may be due to physical, mental, social or rural barriers.
Our fleet of qualified drivers and trained volunteers are dedicated to providing transport to help enable independence, inclusion and participation. As a registered charity with over 30 years’ worth of experience, we offer community transport at its best. Our transport services are reliable, punctual, safe and fully accessible.
Transport
Our transport services include a door-to-door car service, community bus routes, group bookings and vehicle loans. Find out more about our transport services, including bus timetables and how to register, on our transport page.
Volunteer
Without volunteers we would be unable to provide the breadth of services, or help as many people as we do. Find out more about volunteering on our volunteer page.
Donation
Donations are vital for helping us keep this invaluable service affordable, as there are many associated costs, such as vehicle maintenance and fuel. To find out more about how you can donate, please visit our donation page.
