NSN: FREE Easter activities, new community transport partnership
North Staffs News & events in brief
Community transport projects team up to ‘complement not compete’
News of a great new collaboration.
Two community transport projects, Door2Door Transport and Newcastle Community Transport, have launched a new partnership to provide a united service to passengers.
Working together, thanks to funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, the new partnership will improve and increase transport for people with limited mobility, and those who struggle to access public transport, enabling passengers to access appointments and activities across North Staffordshire.
