Sustainable Hayfield Secures Funding for Community Minibus

Hayfield Sustainable Transport’s (HSTL) community share offer to help fund a community minibus has been a success. Thanks to the generosity of local supporters together with a grant promised by the Department of Transport, HSTL has raised a grand total of £50,000 to buy a second bus.

The two minibuses will be used in the day by seven local schools to transport classes on educational trips, at a cost sixty per cent less than hiring a coach. In the evenings and at weekends the vehicles will be used by local community groups, as the current minibus presently is – but with more scope!
