What is the Community Bus?
Our Community Bus takes passengers from Welwyn and Hatfield from their front doors to Jimmy Macs - a registered charity for over the 55s and people with learning disabilities to enjoy a change of scenery in a comfortable environment, making friends and joining in with fun activities.
Our vehicles are wheelchair accessible and have low-floors for those who struggle with steps. This is the perfect low-cost alternative to public transport for those who have difficulties using it.
