Freedom of the County

Have the freedom and independence to explore Essex and beyond!

The Mobility you need to do more!

Mobility challenges shouldn’t limit independence, confidence, or enjoyment of everyday life. Freedom of the County is our commitment to helping people with mobility challenges get out, explore, as well as stay connected with friends and family.

Mobility issues can sometimes make planning a day out feel daunting. Our aim is to remove uncertainty, provide honest guidance, and help people feel confident about where they can go and what they can enjoy.
