New look for community bus
Over the past few weeks, the charity has launched a new colour scheme for its fleet of buses which operate around the Battle, Burwash and Ticehurst areas.
The new livery incorporates the image of a knight on horseback, with the words ‘The Bus’ emblazoned on both sides of the vehicle against a striking blue and yellow design.

“Hopefully we have achieved this”
Not only has the charity launched a new colour scheme but it has also started a new route.
Every Monday the bus will pick up passengers from Broad Oak, Brede, Sedlescombe and Westfield to take them to Sainsbury’s for their weekly shop.
To launch this new route Broad Oak resident Jean Brown was welcomed as the first passenger to use the service and presented with a small gift.
