Good news for Malmesbury!

Good news for Malmesbury!

A new community minibus for Malmesbury and beyond! The 17 seater Cartmell Community Minibus is now on the road and available for any non-commercial community group to hire, in and around our area, at just £1.25 per mile.
It was wonderful to meet the family of the late Cyril Cartmell, former Malmesbury youth worker and the inspiration behind the original minibus, which has been replaced with a brand new bus, thanks to funding from The National Lottery Community Fund and Malmesbury League of Friends
 
For the bookings calendar, opportunities to volunteer to drive the bus and the story of Cyril Cartmell, head to http://www.cartmellminibus.org.uk/
 
Well done to John Fairhurst and the hard working Management Committee of Trustees for making it happen and organising yesterday's launch event at Malmesbury Town Council
