Appleton Voluntary Transport Service (AVTS)

The Appleton Voluntary Transport Service can now offer a very limited service. It remains the case that our drivers are either over 70, and have to be aware of their consequent vulnerability, or are in employment. If anyone is unable to get to a medical appointment, we will try to fix up a driver.

Please phone the AVTS phone on 07503 447 884 and notthe home numbers of the drivers. Leave a message if your call is not anwered and we will get back to you. We need to have at least 48 hours’ notice of any appointment.

For Oxford hospital appointments, the 63 bus service resumed on 1st September and there is an excellent bus service from central Oxford to both the Churchill and John Radcliffe. We hope that patients will use public transport where at all possible.

Please be aware that it may not be possible to arrange transport for patients who are not personally known to drivers.
