For a wheelchair-accessible taxi in Worcester, book ahead with us and the accessible vehicle comes to you: it carries passengers in their own wheelchair, works anywhere in the city and out to the surrounding villages, and is the vehicle we send for Worcestershire Royal Hospital appointments. Using it costs no more than any other journey, and assistance dogs ride free.
The Royal Hospital, out on the Charles Hastings Way side of the city, is the journey this page exists for. Outpatient appointments, clinics that run weekly for months and hospital visiting all follow the same pattern: a booked accessible car, timed to the letter, collecting from your door in Claines, St John's, Warndon or anywhere else in Worcester.
Discharges are the other half of hospital travel. When a patient is ready to leave and travels in a wheelchair, a pre-booked car that is already committed removes the scramble at the ward door. Families often arrange these for a relative, and the booker does not need to be the passenger.
Foregate Street and Shrub Hill stations both see accessible pick-ups, and Worcestershire Parkway serves passengers coming from further afield. A wheelchair user arriving by train can have the car waiting, which turns a two-stage journey into one arrangement.
The city centre itself, the cathedral quarter, the High Street shops and the university campuses at St John's and Riverside are all ordinary destinations. The point of booking is simple: the vehicle that arrives is the vehicle that fits, every time, rather than whichever car happens to be free.
The vehicle and our commitments are described on the wheelchair-accessible service page, and the rest of the city's journeys sit on the Worcester town page. South of the city the same car works from the Vale: see the Evesham accessible taxi page.
