Our Movement’s Manifesto: Improve Access to Health & Social Care
Creating Connections is a UK-wide research project exploring how Community Transport can better support disabled children and young people to get where they need and want to go.
The Department for Transport (DfT) has published its review of Enhanced Partnerships (EP’s), sharing a detailed look at how they are working across England and where improvements are needed. CTA contributed directly to this process by responding to the survey and attending one of the national roundtable events. Our insights, alongside those shared by operators, local authorities and partners helped shape the finding and next steps set out in the review.
The Department for Transport has published a new franchising manual for local authorities that want to franchise their bus networks. This matters for our sector because the direction of travel is clear: more councils are being encouraged to take greater control of local bus services.
Scotland will go to the polls on 7 May to elect a new Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh. What does the Community Transport movement need from our future MSPs and the next Scottish Government over the next five years?
CTA were invited to attend the new bus launch by Llanwrtyd Wells Community Transport at PAVO in Llandrindod Wells, Mid Wales just before Christmas.
Join the Community Transport Association for a workshop for Local Authority colleagues and local VCS infrastructure organisations that support volunteer car schemes in their area, even if they do not run schemes themselves.
