Worst Journey for OAPs
Search to find worst journey for OAPs
A new campaign to find the most difficult journey in Telford, has just been launched. Local campaigner, Stella Kyriazis, decided to highlight the plea of frail older people who have to face difficult, complicated or long journeys to get to the shops, the doctor’s, the library or the post office.
Stella Kyriazis said: “In Telford, getting around by car is not a problem. However, there are many older people who find it difficult to get to places that most younger people take for granted. Some people have to travel on buses with inconvenient timetables, do long trips by foot, or rely on others to give them a lift. I am trying to identify the most difficult journey in Telford, do the trip myself with local councillors, and then campaign to make transport in Telford more accessible, reliable and affordable for older people”.
If you know anyone who has an inconvenient, long, time-consuming, complicated or awkward journey just to do simple everyday things, write to Stella at: Nationwide House, Pearson Road, Telford, TF2 9TX.
