About us

The mission of Nutmeg Senior Rides is to improve the quality of life for people 50 and older and adults with visual impairments by providing members affordable, door-through-door, personal transportation. Rides to work and any other purpose and service are available 365 days a year.

Volunteers provide over 50% of our rides and are the key factor in keeping rides available and affordable, keeping program costs down, and keeping our program intrinsically connected to the community. Nutmeg Senior Rides has a specific service area for senior transportation in Connecticut.

Nutmeg Senior Rides provides senior transportation in West Suffield CT, Bloomfield CT, South Windsor CT, Somers CT, Enfield CT, Granby CT, East Granby CT, Suffield CT, Windsor CT, Windsor Locks CT, and East Windsor CT.

Every person who has it in their heart to contribute to the noble cause of helping improve seniors' transportation in Connecticut can be part of our family by becoming a rider, becoming a volunteer, making a donation, or becoming one of our sponsors.

Our Director

Margaret Hale is the Executive Director of Nutmeg Senior Rides. She joined them in January of 2008 to help build the program. First rides began in January of 2009. Recently she was awarded a citation from the State of Connecticut presented by State Representative Jane Garibay who thanked Margaret for acting with compassion, never giving up on the commitment to service elderly members of our community, and providing a vital service that improves the quality of life for seniors and their families.

Prior to her work with Nutmeg Margaret was an insurance executive in Boston having the Resident Manager for the Boston Office of the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies and Senior Vice President of the Broker Frank B. Hall of Massachusetts. Margaret is listed in Who's Who of American Women.

A lot of seniors face isolation and a reduced quality of life due to reduced access to affordable transportation options, that is why we allow people to "age in place" without being home bound.
