We were pleased and proud to be asked to contribute our story to this important new project, launched nationwide on 23rd June 2021. With stories of solidarity the project focuses on what we can do about economic injustice through activities bringing together examples of struggles for human rights and the arts to encourage action for change. The information sheet, video and podcast about the 65 bus can be found here

We’ve had several good news stories to report recently. The timetable was changed in March so that every service now calls at every village along the route. You can see the new timetable here.

And this week Monmouthshire County Council reported that they will be cleaning and making good every bus stop and shelter along the route. This will include cutting back greenery, washing around the stop, renewing the timetable holders and inserting copies of the new timetable at every stop.
