Community Transport in Essex

Community Transport schemes across Essex provide vital, accessible travel options for residents who may not be able to use conventional public transport. These services are run by dedicated local organisations, often charitable, and play a key role in helping people stay connected to their communities.

Whether you're looking for transport to medical appointments, shopping, social activities, or simply to stay mobile and independent, community transport can help.


Volunteer with Your Local Community Transport Scheme

Many of Essex’s community transport providers rely on the generosity of volunteers to keep their services running. From driving vehicles to helping with admin or passenger support, there are many ways to get involved.

If you have some time to spare and would like to make a meaningful difference in your community, please consider volunteering with your local scheme. You’ll be helping others stay connected—and you might find it rewarding too!

If you have a few hours to spare and experience or interest in areas such as office administration, marketing, social media, digital support, finance, project management, volunteer coordination, event planning, route planning, or creative service design, please complete the volunteering form below.

This will help us match you with a scheme that can benefit from your skills.
