About this project

We are hopeful to purchase an electric minibus for use in the community of Tillydrone.  We aim to provide services for vulnerable/disabled adults/children, elderly folks & low income families.  

The minibus would be used for a variety of activities, these would include: providing transport for those who have mobility issues, possibly for shopping, appointments etc, funded outings etc. We could also provide transport for volunteers to carry out community work. The minibus can also double up as a van to distribute care packages or similar within  our community. We could also provide travel for other groups within Tillydrone

Our people carrier transports our service users to the groups and activities which we provide – particularly the children and young people of our Young People’s Sensory Service (YPSS). The funding requested would enable us to replace our current people carrier, now seven years old, with a similar but electric vehicle.
