Life-Line Community Transport Providers get share of funds to improve their vehicles

A number of Community Transport providers in the county have been awarded a share of funds to help improve their vehicles, which include minibuses.

£100,000 is being invested in improving life-line community transport services run by charities and volunteer groups in Leicestershire. 

Community transport enables elderly, vulnerable and disabled residents and those living in rurally isolated communities to access activities from medical appointments to shopping trips.
