The time has come to replace our old, battered mini bus which we have had for four years. It has served us well but is not as reliable as it used to be and in fact let us down once this year already when we were at a camp in Derby.

Since having our mini bus it has enabled us to take the cubs and scouts on camping trips further afield. Until we got the mini bus we tended to stay nearer to Bletchley, as parents could drop the children at the local designated camping sites. With the benefit of the mini bus we are able to go more or less anywhere, to sites which have more facilities/activities and the children enjoy the trips immensely. The mini bus is also available for other groups in the community to use too.

Getting a new mini bus would give us more security going further afield on camping trips with the group. Earlier this year our current mini bus let us down whilst we were on a trip to Derby, forcing the leaders and children to have to return to Bletchley by taxis under our inaurance. A new mini bus will give us and the parents peace of mind and benefit the children and local community alike.
