How your fundraising this Christmas could help people like 76-year-old Helen from Matlock:

In 2025, Helen was diagnosed with womb cancer and went through six weeks of radiotherapy treatment.

After quickly experiencing the difficulties with parking, Helen was introduced to the charity's free transport service. Helen used the service for the rest of her treatment and in her own words expressed that "the service was easy to use, with comfortable minibuses and wonderful volunteer drivers who made every journey pleasant. I’m incredibly grateful to the Transport Hub team. Their support made a difficult time so much easier, and their transport service is truly invaluable."
