Clare Local Lift
Support your community by giving a lift to those who need it.
Clare County Council in conjunction with Arvoia (Intelligent Mobility Solutions company) are currently leading a pilot community transport service based on a car-sharing model, known as Clare Local Lift. Funding for this pilot was secured from Enterprise Ireland under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Fund.
Carrigaholt Development Association is piloting this community car-sharing model which will serve the Loop Head peninsula. This is a voluntary initiative which will connect those in rural communities without transport, with those private drivers within the community willing to provide transport.
Volunteer drivers (transport providers) and passengers in the pilot area can now sign up to Clare Local Lift. Registered volunteers will post their local transport offerings to a specially designed mobile app which could then be taken up by local users (transport seekers) who have posted their needs on this same app, for example a weekly lift to the local doctor's surgery or shop etc.
Simple and intuitive, the Clare Local Lift App is designed to make it easy for drivers and passengers to connect.
If you would like to be part of this initiative, either as a driver or passenger, please contact Margaret on 087 1089847 or email clarelocallift@clarecoco.ie.
The app is now available on the Google Play Store.
