Age Concern Vehicles
Our two vehicles, operate out of our Day Centre. Their primary use is to collect our beneficiaries from their homes, to visit the Day Centre for our many daily activities, and then take them home.
Both vehicles have been specially adapted to allow for ease of embarking and disembarking of people with reduced mobility and their mobility aids.
A huge team of volunteer drivers daily wend their way, throughout our catchment area of Costa Blanca South, collecting our beneficiaries ensuring their safety at all times. They join in all the banter and stories that are told giving the passengers not only a secure way of transport but allowing them to enjoy a social life.
The secondary function of our vehicles and drivers is to fulfil a collection of clothes and household items, being donated, all of which goes to stock our charity shops.
Our Citroen Jumper Mini bus, which was purchased solely by public donations, has been adapted to facilitate the carriage of wheelchairs and miscellaneous mobility aids.
