Drop-in Sessions 

We are hosting a variety of support sessions to educate residents and passengers about the FoxConnect service. The sessions will be a chance to talk to the team, get some information materials, and receive support on the app or call centre. 

We are reaching out to local parish councils to organise drop-in sessions for areas that need them. There will be more sessions announced once confirmed. If your parish, organisation or village would benefit from a drop in session, get in contact with our team by emailing choosehowyoumove@leics.gov.uk
