Wessex Hubs Mobility Advice Service

The purpose of the Wessex Hubs Mobility Service is to support people who may find that because they can no longer drive or have never driven, they are lonely and isolated and would appreciate free bespoke advice on how to stay mobile, considering their accessibility needs.

Hub staff can speak to you and establish how you are managing to stay connected and will look to support you through difficulties you may be experiencing.  The Hub staff can then assist you, utilising their access to a wide range of resources such as:

• Information on accessible bus, coach, rail, boat and air travel

• Journey planning, concessions and permit schemes

• The blue badge parking scheme and accessible parking

• Rights as a disabled traveller

• Suitable activities and groups in your area

• Community transport such as Dial-A-Ride

• Shop Mobility

• Accessible taxis

• Wheelchair and mobility scooter support

• Ways to reduce loneliness and isolation
