Buying or commissioning services from us..
As a national social enterprise, we’re keen to work with partners to deliver services that:
- are good value
- transform users’ experience of public services
- help us to maintain and develop core services
We aim to innovate and adapt to what is needed. Please contact our Regional Operations Managers or local branches to discuss how we can work together to develop new and exciting services for your community.
Here are some examples of the successful services we have provided:
Home to school transport for children with Special Educational Needs
We operate 30 minibus routes for 7 metropolitan authorities. These are won by competitive tender and we pride ourselves on the quality of vehicles, the professionalism of our drivers, and the delivery of reliable and punctual services.
Inter-school travel for pupils aged 14-19
In Wolverhampton, we have worked in partnership with the City Council since 2004 to enable pupils to get to Diploma, GCSE and A level courses at campuses across the city; we’ve helped optimise the timetable and kept children safe whilst in transit.
Transport for Pupil Referral Units (PRUs)
Our service for Sandwell MBC has transformed the way the PRUs work, as we handle all regular and ad hoc transport requirements for children recovering from illness, teenage mothers and children with challenging behaviour.
Social care and health
We run a wide range of contracts, transporting people to regular day care, to therapeutic and social activities, to primary and secondary healthcare appointments and shopping facilities.
Furniture contracts
We are able to supply starter packs of furniture for new tenants of housing associations. We also have contracts for storage in Dudley and Newcastle.
Training contracts
We are a national provider of driver training (MiDAS, PATS, PCV etc.) and are developing the capacity to deliver a range of NVQs to meet the new skills agenda and the challenges of the recession.
