About Us - User Testimonials

Caring in the Hamptons
since 1974
" My role each Tuesday is to drive and collect each person, taking them all to the 'Little Sainsbury's', help with trolleys, assist the Escort and ensure each passenger is safely returned home, hopefully with the right bags!
" My passengers generally behave well (better than the driver) and frankly we have a bit of a laugh.It is a team effort that all of us value".

John Webb, Volunteer Minibus Driver

 
" With time on my hands and a car at my disposal it is an easy way to provide a little help".

Lynne Young, Volunteer Car Driver

 

" I have started as an Escort on one of the regular weekly Shopping Buses. It only takes a few hours out of my week and I really enjoy my Friday mornings with the ladies on the bus".

Janie Willis

 
" I drive minibuses for shopping trips and occasional sightseeing tours .I enjoy the work enormously and find all the passengers very pleasant and appreciative".
Mervyn Jones

............. And from appreciative clients

" The wonderful service you provide has been a lifeline for me. The Shopping Bus with the escort and driver, both so kind and cheerful… I look forward to my shopping bus trips and meeting the others on the bus. The Tours too are excellent (and meet a great need for people who do not have cars)".

Lorna Langley

" Every Friday Don takes me to Tangley Park Sainsbury's. .Don is very kind, on the return he carries the shopping right to the door. I'm sure that many people who use the bus would be housebound without it". Doris Parker passed away quietly at the end of last year and kindly left us a small legacy.
