Bus firm offers support to local good causes
Bus company trentbarton wants to hear from local good causes who could benefit from cash donations, sponsorship or its time and resources.
The firm is offering the support through its trentbarton together community fund.
The fund was put on hold soon after its launch just before lockdown in March 2020. Now it is back and welcoming applications from sports teams, schools, charities and other local groups.
The bus company will support at least one good cause every month, with the successful applicants chosen by a panel of trentbarton staff.
Managing director Jeff Counsell said: “All through 2020 and into 2021 we have been reminded of the importance of the roles played by the local groups, charities and networks of people who help each other when help is needed.
“Now, as lockdown lifts, trentbarton together is back to help out the sports teams, community groups and local schools who get in touch and let us know what support they need.
“We won’t be able to help everyone but we will make sure to select a worthy cause each month. It won’t always be about money. If our team is needed or the loan of a bus would make a big difference then we we’d love to help out.”
