For the same cost as Ring & Ride (£1.30 per passenger journey) you can now book group transport for your users to get to your regular activities. No need for each passenger to book transport, group organisers can book on their behalf in regular 6-week blocks eliminating any uncertainty.
Passengers will need to register for the service but do not need to fulfill any mobility criteria to use transport, the purpose of the scheme is to encourage people back out into their community and to support community groups to grow their membership again after COVID.
