Testimonials

"We are very happy with the services provided by Bath Community Transport. Without them we wouldn’t be able to take the residents on the important and enriching trips that we organise as a charity.

The drivers are brilliant, and nothing is too much trouble. They are also very knowledgeable about the places we drive past, and always try to make the journey to the destination enjoyable and interesting.

Thank you to BCT for always going above and beyond, we highly recommend!"

“Southdown Lunch Club helps to support people in Bath from all backgrounds, many of whom have experienced social isolation.

Thanks to Bath Community Transport, we can provide access to a safe and friendly environment where people can socialise, enjoy a low cost hot meal and try activities such as singing, dancing and shopping.

Another blessing of this transport and their drivers, is that, thanks to this service, many older house-bound people have enjoyed days out around Somerset, sometimes for the first times in months or longer. The drivers always show kindness and support to our guests, many of whom have additional needs.

Thank you. "

“With multiple health conditions, I have hospital appointments several times a week. Bath Community Transport always pick me up on time, and as I have no-on else to take me, it’s a reassurance having their service.”

Golden-Oldies regularly use the services of Bath Community Transport for all our BANES Big Singing Events.

Goldies (as we’re more fondly known) run monthly daytime Sing & Smile sessions across the UK. We have several sessions in Bath and the surrounding area which are aimed at over 60’s who are feeling lonely, isolated and those living with dementia, but everyone is welcome. We sing-a-long to popular hits from the 50’s onwards including artists like our very own Patron Sir Cliff Richard, The Beatles, Lulu, ABBA and many, many more. We’re not a choir so you don’t have to be a good singer, just enjoy music, meeting people and having an hour of fun.
