Lifts to appointments in Gloucestershire and Swindon

+44 (0) 1452 447 109

Don't drive, or can't at the moment? Your regular helper is insured to drive you to appointments, the shops and social events, and home again. £25 an hour.

Help getting where you need to be

Not everyone drives. Some people never have, some have given up the car, and some can't drive for a while after an operation. Buses don't always go where you need them to, and taxis soon add up.

Your helper is insured to drive you to hospital and GP appointments, the dentist, the shops, a club or a friend's house, and to bring you home again.

Because it is the same helper every time, you are always with someone you know. They can carry the shopping in, put it away and fit in some cleaning or laundry on the same visit.

Every visit is £25 an hour and lasts at least 2 hours.

Where your helper can take you

  • Hospital and clinic appointments

    Cheltenham General, Gloucestershire Royal, the Great Western in Swindon and local clinics. Your helper gets you there in good time and brings you home.

  • GP, dentist and opticians

    Routine appointments that are hard to reach without a car, with someone you know doing the driving.

  • The weekly shop

    A trip to the supermarket together, or your helper does the shop for you. Bags carried in and put away.

  • Clubs and social events

    A class, a club, the hairdresser, the garden centre or lunch with a friend. Getting out regularly makes a real difference.

  • Visiting family and friends

    A lift to see the people who matter, so bus timetables don't keep you apart.

  • Errands on the way

    The post office, the pharmacy or the bank, fitted into the same visit.

If you would like, family can see upcoming visits, your helper's notes and invoices in our app, wherever they live.

Time to do it properly

Every visit is at least 2 hours, so nobody is rushing in and out and the job gets done properly.

One clear price

£25 an hour for every service, whatever your helper is doing, with visits of 2 hours or more.

“I contacted Ellia because I didn’t need a carer, but I did need a bit of extra help at home. What I got was so much more than I expected.”
