Meeting other needs within our very rural and isolated communities to help all people get out and about
LWCT provides community transport services, linking with existing bus and rail routes wherever possible, in our endeavour to increase social inclusion and improve quality of life, in this very rural and isolated area. We started in 2002 and continue to improve our offerings and developing new initiatives. We are a voluntary non-profit organisation, and have successfully delivered a quality, demand responsive, flexibly routed, integrated transport service designed to meet the needs and aspirations of those living in the local communities.
