Emergency Taxi Service
Ballymena Runners has an “on call” taxi service with E Cabs that leaders can avail of should the need arise. The service is available on any formal training or runs to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our members. Leaders should put this number in your phone now - 028 2588 0004
If during a run anyone becomes unwell, or injured or is unable to continue the leader should consider getting the person back to the starting point. Often this may involve the person leaving the group and walking back with company to the start. However, should the person have difficulty doing so, or if the weather is poor, or the person wants to, it would be appropriate for the leader to call for a taxi. The taxi can take the person, along with any appropriate company, back to the start, or their home or another reasonable destination.
The leader should call the taxi service, advise that you are calling from Ballymena Runners quoting Account No 85 and require an urgent pick up. Give your details and location. A taxi will be put on route asap. There will be no charge made so no money is required.
The club will be billed for the fare so its important that you notify Stephen Brown of the details as soon as you can.
The use of this service is for the health and safety of members and is at the discretion of the leader of the group.
