The Collingham Medical Centre serves over 30 local villages (some in Nottinghamshire and some in Lincolnshire: Aubourn, Balderton, Bassingham, Besthorpe, Brough, Carlton-Le-Moorland, Coddington, Collingham, Danethorpe, Doddington, Eagle, Eagle Barnsdale, Eagle Moor, Girton, Haddington, Harby, Holme, Langford, Morton, Morton Hall, Newark, Newton on Trent, North Clifton, North Scarle, Norton Disney, South Clifton, South Scarle, Spalford, Stapleford, Swinderby, Swinthorpe, Thorney, Thorpe on the Hill, Thurlby, Whisby, Whisby Moor, Wigsley, Winthorpe and Witham St Hughs)

We are located in a rural area and many patients are unable to access transport to attend medical and other appointments - We therefore treat hospital and other medical appointments as our main priority followed by Optician and Dental appointments. Other requests are be treated on a case-by-case basis, often depending on a volunteer driver being available.

As a registered charity trips are undertaken at a fixed rate

Our friendly team would welcome any member of any of the villages covered by the medical center wishing to volunteer as a driver

Journeys undertaken include local (around the villages) or longer distances (to hospitals) to suit drivers preferences and patients requirements
