VAR Transport Survey
Our Transport Survey is now live and running until mid-November.
VAR has provided a Transport service to the residents of Rutland for over 40 years, and we want to ask our users how we are doing and whether changes are needed to make the service better.
This survey is to help VAR continue to serve the rural community of Rutland by shaping the survey to the needs of our users.
Please complete this survey if you use our Transport service yourself, book on behalf of others or have interactions with our Transport Staff and Volunteers.
Please click the link below or scan the QR code to the left to complete the survey. It should only take about 5 minutes to complete.

VAR launches Helping Hands DIY service for Rutland residents in need of a little help
In a new move for VAR, we have started to work more closely with Rutland County Council to provide much needed school transportation. The county has always struggled with a poor transport infrastructure and the school run is no different. From September 2023, VAR will be providing transport to school children in parts of the county where there is a real need.
We are really excited about this next step as it continues our role supporting our rural community, alleviates some of the pressure on the Council and also gives VAR an opportunity to become more sustainable as we look towards the next 40 years…
