Bournemouth, Poole and East Dorset Cabs For Jabs
Donation protected
PRC Streamline Taxis are currently working with the local community to raise funds to provide over 1000 free cab rides for those in the Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Wimborne and Ferndown areas who cannot afford to pay to travel for their Covid - 19 vaccinations.
Some people are concerned about using public transport, exposing themselves to more people than they would in a taxi so we want to make it safer for those who are more vulnerable and the elderly to travel alone or with one other person from their household or bubble. Public Health Dorset would rather they didn't ask neighbours, not in their bubble, for lifts as this might also spread the virus. We already provide discounted fares for vaccination trips but having seen Cabs4Jabs on the tv thought that we should go the extra mile and get involved.
PRC Streamline are not in a position to offer this service for free as drivers are already working on a much lower income due to the pandemic and the reduction in work, .
We hope that by raising funds those eligible for the vaccine will be more likely to attend their appointments and not have to worry about the cost of getting there and back.
However we do hope that only those in genuine need of financial help will take advantage of this offer and ask that you help raise awareness of this service and donate as much as you possibly can.
We’d like to thank those who have donated and would be grateful if you can all share the link and spread the word to others who can donate and support this initiative.
You can also help by letting your parents, grandparents, great grandparents and anyone else who lives in the BCP and surrounding area and needs a lift know that they can use this service for free (funds dependent) to get to the vaccination centre for their Covid vaccination appointment.
We are working closely with many of the vaccination centres in the BCP area and beyond so please get in touch as soon as you receive your Covid appointment.
If you want to book a free cab to get to your Covid Appointment please call 01202 37 37 37
You'll need to confirm your appointment time and location please.
PRC Streamline Cabs for Jabs fundraising team will only use your donation to pay for taxi fares for local older and vulnerable residents who require assistance getting to and from their Covid vaccination appointment only.
