π©βπ Studying at university or college is an exciting time, but navigating transport can be a challenge, especially for students with disabilities and special needs. Executive Cabs Glasgow understands these challenges and is committed to providing safe, reliable, comfortable, and accessible transportation for disabled students across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Paisley, Ayr, Falkirk, West of Scotland, and surrounding areas. We accept payments through the Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA), making travel easier and more affordable. We directly invoice the Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS), eliminating the need for you to pay us on every trip and keep receipts to claim it back from SAAS.

βΏοΈ What is DSA?π©βπ¦½
The Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA) is a non-repayable grant available to students in the UK with disabilities, long-term health conditions, mental health conditions, or specific learning difficulties. It helps cover the extra costs you may face during your studies, including transport. DSA covers the taxi costs to and from college or university for eligible students. Consult your Disability Advisor/Co-ordinator at your college / university for details.
