Better Access To Local Transport And Health Services
PICTURE: KATE HEALY
Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford announced the funding today, which will help the Centre for Participation deliver pilot service where volunteers drive local residents to and from medical appointments.
Under the pilot, volunteers may use their own vehicles or those provided by local council and health providers to transport people who have difficulty accessing medical services to their appointments.
The Labor Government funding will cover the first 12 months of the 24-month pilot, which is set to begin in mid-2017.
The Centre for Participation, as well as local councils and health providers will partner to contribute in kind a further $60,000 towards the service.
It’s the sort of innovative community transport solution outlined in the Labor Government Regional Network Development Plan – Victoria’s first ever long term strategy for better public transport in regional Victoria.
