A huge thank you to the Enterprise Holdings Foundation, who have graciously donated £2.5k to Hartlepower in conjunction with CLIP, to establish a new accessible transport scheme for everyone with a disability or impairment in Hartlepool! 🚙👨‍🦽🚶‍♀️

Below is an example of the type of vehicle we hope to provide the community, a 5 seater vehicle with wheelchair accessible features to ensure everyone can be catered to.
