Your FAQ

Question: Is there a carer’s card availble for when you accompany someone travelling to the mainland for treatment? It seems Hovertravel have been saying that free or subsidised travel can only be given if the person has a carer’s card??

Answer: No, we do not currently have a carer’s card available, although we believe that Wightlink may offer something to carers and you just need to have a letter from the Care Manager/GP to identify that you are a carer. We do however hope to have a carer’s card up and running shortly.
