Description
Ambulance transport
If you are having trouble getting to your appointment you may be entitled to use the hospital transport service provided by South Central Ambulance Service. They provide transport for some people who are unable to use public transport due to their medical condition.
To find out if you may be eligible for the patient transport service, please call 0300 100 0015.
If you are eligible for patient transport, you can make a booking by calling 0300 123 9841.
If you are not eligible, there are also a number of subsidised community car and minibus schemes available that can give you a lift. A number of these make a small charge for their service so please ask when you book.
