What we do

The EDDIE Bus is available for eligible Bromsgrove groups who need accessible transport for local outings and day trips. Our volunteer-run minibus helps passengers get out and about, whether they are visiting a garden centre, going for lunch, attending a social activity or enjoying a group day out.

The minibus is fitted with a passenger lift, making it easier for people with walking difficulties or wheelchair users to get on and off safely.
