Dragon Taxis Newport & Torfaen has revealed they will provide free transport for elderly and vulnerable to get COVID-19 vaccinations.
The company has rolled out a free taxi service for elderly and vulnerable patients to attend appointments at COVID-19 vaccination clinics.
The service is for vaccination clinics only and does not apply for Coronavirus testing centres as the guidance from Welsh Government is to avoid using public transport on the way to and from testing centres.
