Our 12 year old minibus has served us well but is coming to the end of its life. A minibus allows us to take volunteers out to nature reserves throughout Worcestershire to carry out essential conservation management. It is used at least twice each week all through the year.

    Situation

    Our minibus has worked very hard over the past 12 years but is finally coming to the end of its useful life. We are starting to have occasions when volunteers are stranded after a day working on a nature reserve. Without access to a minibus, many of our volunteers would not be able to join in with work parties as they don't have access to transport to often remote nature reserves. This could see an end to our twice weekly work parties and the valuable conservation work they enable.

    Solution

    A replacement minibus would mean we can continue running our work parties and maintain the enthusiastic contribution made by our many volunteers. Between 6 and 10 people take part in each work party and without their efforts the nature reserves would suffer.
