Hire a Jumbulance
The Trust has 2 Standard Jumbulances and one slightly smaller
one. Each is a luxury coach/ambulance which offers
facilities that make travel possible for those who need extra care
and specialst facilities up to a maximum of 24 excluding the drivers.
We employ friendly, caring and experienced drivers who understand
the needs of the disabled and sick.
The Standard Jumbulances are primarily suitable for long distance travel throughout Europe, often driving throughout the night, but are also available for use in the UK where their more comprehensive facilities would be advantageous.
The smaller Jumbulance known as the Midi is mostly used for day outings both in the UK and to the Northern parts of France but also for holidays in the UK where requirements are less demanding. But if there is much to carry by way of luggage or wheelchairs we have an excellent and spacious trailer.

- 8 stretcher beds, 4 of which are removable trolley beds,
with adjustable backrest and knee support
