Our Group Hire service is available for non-profit voluntary and community organisations and groups, who must apply for membership with Newry and Mourne Community Transport Hire Services. The annual registration fee is £25.

​

We offer your group the convenience of a professional, uniformed driver who holds a full D1 CPC Minibus Driving qualification along with MiDAS (Minibus Driver Awareness Scheme) certification. All our drivers have been Access NI checked and undergo regular training in disability awareness, adult safeguarding, and first aid.

​

Alternatively, your group can nominate a volunteer to drive instead, provided they hold D1 category on a full UK driving licence and must be on the Newry and Mourne Community Transport list of approved drivers.

​

Our minibuses can accommodate between 9 and 16 passengers, including wheelchair users. Each vehicle is fully licensed and equipped with seat belts throughout. To ensure the highest safety standards, all our vehicles undergo regular maintenance and safety inspections every ten weeks, meeting MOT standards.

Rates:
£20 a hour with a nominated driver.
