TENBURY MP Harriett Baldwin has praised the town’s transport trust and says that its new mini-bus is just the ticket.

Harriett Baldwin has been a long-term supporter of the Tenbury Transport Trust and its volunteers and formally backed the bid for the new mini-bus.

She was also instrumental in helping the trust to secure a bus under a government scheme and intervened when there was a long delay between agreement that the group would get the bus and any sign of its arrival.

“I have helped to support Tenbury Transport Trust for many years in any way I can and I was delighted when I was told that the bid for government funding has been successful and want to formally thank all the many volunteers who help to transport people living in and around Tenbury,” said Harriett Baldwin.

“The service reaches some remote outlying villages with a lifeline.”

“We are blessed to live in a beautiful part of the country but sometimes rural areas miss out when it comes to public transport.

"Tenbury Transport Trust is a great organisation for helping people who need help the most."
