02 Activities

What the charity does

We are a good neighbour charity run entirely by volunteers, serving Corsham and the villages of Neston and Gastard. Activities mainly involve volunteers using their own cars to convey people to medical appointments, visit relatives, go shopping etc. where the use of public transport presents a problem.
