Swindon’s Bus Company is offering its support to local charities and other organisations as part of a good causes initiative.

The bus operator’s Community Fund is a dedicated resource for backing local causes with funding, marketing help, free travel or the use of its buses for events. 

“At Swindon’s Bus Company we’re proud to play an integral role within the local community,” said Swindon’s Bus Company general manager Andrew Sherrington. 

 

“As well as providing bus services across, we endeavour to support and raise awareness for those doing excellent work on behalf of those living here. 

 

“The Swindon’s Bus Company Community Fund is open to everyone - from charities to sports teams - and we encourage anyone who needs a helping hand, however big or small, to apply.”

 

To apply, groups should visit Swindon’s Bus Company’s website and provide details about their cause, what they need, and the difference this support might make to their organisation. The winners will be announced in July. 

 

Previous beneficiaries include Swindon Domestic Abuse Support Service, Westlea Primary School, and Swindon Music Trust.
