For older people that don’t have a car, have poor mobility, and find it difficult to use public transport or that live in rural areas with poor transport links, it can be difficult to get out and about. This can lead to feelings of isolation, loneliness and a lack of independence. Basingstoke Community Transport provides community transport to the community of Basingstoke and the surrounding areas. We run a fleet of fully wheelchair accessible minibuses. All with 16 seats without wheelchairs and all seats have seat belts provided and have transported more than 1.75 million passengers.
Group hire.
We provide mini-buses at competitive rates for group hire where we provide the vehicle and the qualified driver.

Minibus hire.
We provide minibus hire for voluntary and community groups. In this instance the vehicle can be hired and the group provides its own driver, however the organisation they driver for must provide their own PERMIT 19 and display it on the front window of the bus. This is commonly when groups want to go on longer day trips or weekly excursions. If a group hires a bus and wants to use their own driver then that driver MUST be MiDAS trained, we now provide MIDAS training. For guaranteed hire at the times you want book early.

Trips and excursions.
From time to time we provide daily excursions and trips out for individuals to book and travel as a group, from a garden centre, to the seaside.
