Advice & Information
The CTA is dedicated to educate, inform and promote the role of community and voluntary transport for enabling social inclusion and access.
The CTA's Advice and Information service covers the UK and is supported by national governments. We are the only organisation in the UK that provides an advice and information service on community transport issues.
The CTA Advice Team number is 0845 130 6195 or you can email us at advice@ctauk.org.
This resource provides free advice leaflets, good practice guides and information packs for the voluntary sector and local authorites. You will be required to register or log in to access this information, but will only have to do this once to download multiple leaflets.
This resource provides authoritative expert information on the complex problems faced by the voluntary sector and local authorities and will be updated as soon as there are any changes in the law plus we will email all subscribers to let them know about the changes.
The CTA has helped organisations using institutional Blue Badges for many years. Now it is using this expertise to help people with disabilities and older people entitled to individual Blue Badges. The helpline calls are diverted to the CTA’s office in Manchester and provides a service for those wanting more information on the Blue Badge scheme.

This resource has been provided for schools, colleges and universities who hire, own, or operate minibuses (9 to 16 passenger seats plus driver) as part of their activities. It provides an overview only of what educational establishments should know in order to ensure that they operate their minibuses legally. Signposts to further reading for more detailed information have been included.
