Thistle Card and App

If you have a disability, you often need a little more time to get on and off public transport and to have a safe and comfortable journey to your destination. The aim of the Thistle Assistance Card and App is to help anyone who has difficulty in using public transport because of their age, disability or illness and who perhaps can't communicate their requirements easily.

The card and App, is supported by a wide variety of voluntary organisations in Scotland and is recognised by most public transport operators.  It is credit-card sized and comes with a supply of peel-off stickers, which advise the driver/staff of your disability and the help you need in an easy-to-read format.  It is also useful for those with a temporary mobility impairement or are pregnant.

For further information or to request a Thistle Card please visit Thistle Assistance.  The App is available on both the App Store (apple) and Google Play (android).
