I'm disabled with limited mobility. I can walk short distances, with the aid of a crutch, but not too far. Now my problem is that I do need to get out and about. A recent example, was I needed to get some cash, do a little shopping, charge my key for my electricity meter and post a parcel. To do all of this I'd have to had gone to 3 different locations, which while not far apart I'm incapable walking to each location.

Now, since I don't have a car other personal transport, my only choices left were public transport or cabs. Cabs are expensive and in current condition even with walking aids I can't walk as far the bus stop in either direction, let alone carrying a bag or two of shopping.

It occurred to me that there might be a small local charity that would help people in my situation, despite asking around social services, searching the internet and asking my support team there doesn't seem such a charity anywhere near by.

I know that there others who are in a similar position to me, whether disabled or elderly. So I have two questions:-

1) Does anyone know of such a charity?
2) If there isn't one, are there any people out there with cars, who would be willing to set up such a charity to help those of us who could use such a service?
