TAXI CONCESSIONARY
FARES SCHEME
FOR RESIDENTS OF
GERRARDS CROSS, AGED 60 AND OVER,
TRAVELLING TO MEDICAL
FACILITIES.
The Parish Council has
successfully operated the Taxi Concessionary Fares
Scheme for a number of years now. The service is aimed
at residents aged 60 and over who live within the Parish
of Gerrards Cross and have difficulties in getting to
and from appointments at local hospitals and medical
services (such as doctors surgeries, dentists and
opticians). We use one approved taxi company and members
can obtain a rebate of up to 70% on fares.
There is a very simple
application form to fill in (which can be obtained from
the Parish Council Office) and once this has been
approved and a pass issued, you become a member of the
scheme and can start using the service.
If you think you, or someone
you know, could benefit from joining this scheme please
contact the Parish Council Office at South Lodge, East
Common on 01753 888018 and we will be delighted to give
you more information or send you an application form.
For current members, we
are pleased to say that the King Edward VII Hospital in
Windsor has just been added to the list of approved
destinations included under the scheme.
