I come to Dirrans, it’s the only chance I have to get out the house. If I could afford it I’d come more than once a week but I need to pay £26 by taxi to come here. Transport is a real issue for people living in Garnock valley. Dial a bus didn’t work – I would need to stay on the bus for over 3 hours to get to Dirrans and there aren’t volunteer drivers in the area.
It’s all good staff in here, they really help you.
I get to socialise. Before I came here I didn’t mix with folk. Through time I’ve got to know everyone here. Everyone here has a disability, we’re all in the same boat.
