Let's work together to build a healthier, happier community.

We have a dedicated team of volunteers who provide transport to those who need it. Volunteers can collect you using the Seachange minibus, or car or use their vehicles. All volunteers have undergone full DBS checks, are fully insured and have been inducted in safeguarding policies. Our vehicle can be specially adapted to carry wheelchairs.

The transport can be used for any wellbeing activity throughout the areas of Woodbury, Exmouth, Budleigh and surrounding villages. That may be but not limited to exercise classes or medical appointments. We can also provide transport to RDE Exeter.

The service is supported by donations given to the driver or Seachange reception.

The service is brilliantly organised by Tracey. Registration is requested upon first use of the service so we can best attend to your needs.
