At Newry and Mourne Community Transport, we’re committed to making life easier for those living in rural areas who find it difficult—or even impossible—to access conventional public transport. That’s why we offer Dial-a-Lift, a reliable, flexible transport service designed to keep you connected to the things that matter most.


What is Dial-a-Lift?

Dial-a-Lift is tailored for individuals in rural communities who are unable to use standard public transport due to mobility issues, isolation, or lack of access. Whether it’s a trip to the GP or a catch-up with friends, Dial-a-Lift ensures you're never left behind.


Where Can I Go?

This service can be used for a wide variety of everyday and essential journeys, including:

  • Shopping trips

  • Visits to the hairdresser

  • Doctor or local health centre appointments

  • Pharmacy collections

  • Trips to the Post Office

  • Accessing education and training opportunities

  • Participating in community or recreational activities

  • Visiting friends and family

Our goal is to empower you to live independently and stay socially connected—wherever life takes you.


Am I Eligible?

To qualify for Dial-a-Lift, you must meet the following criteria:

  • You must live in a rural area that is not covered by the Disability Action Transport Scheme (DATS).

  • If you hold a SMARTPASS, your first two trips of the week is FREE.
