‘Newbold Pacey and Ashorne: 2020 vision’ is a beautiful book of nearly 50 pages of photographs and stories of the houses and households as they are in 2020.  It is a reference point for future generations wishing to research both Newbold Pacey and Ashorne, as well as providing a memory for all those currently living in the villages.
 
You can choose between the coloured and bound paperback version at £22.50, or printed copies of the individual pages held together with a removable spine at £14.99. All profits from these books will be divided equally between Newbold Pacey and Ashorne Village Hall and St George’s Church, Newbold Pacey.
 
Please fill in the order form and return to Kate Freeman at kate@freeman.org.uk as soon as possible and no later than 15.12.20.
 
Once total numbers are known,  final printing will take place and hopefully the books will be available before Christmas.

VASA - ​JOIN OUR DRIVE TO CHANGE LIVES

3/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Before coronavirus struck, demand for community transport was rising dramatically in Warwickshire, driven by the needs of some of our most vulnerable residents.  Those who needed help to get to hospitals and health services … to stroke clubs, dance classes and many more social activities.  To do things many of us then took for granted! And until March, when pandemic hit, this was what VASA helped to provide every day.   

In the meantime, we’ve managed to restart our transport service for medical appointments thanks to our fantastic team of volunteers.  Community spirit is at an all time high - and we need you to help us keep up the great work too!  We’re keen to recruit more drivers as soon as possible as demand is starting to rise again and more people need to get to medical appointments.  Here’s how you can help our vulnerable passengers as a volunteer.

For some people, you may be the only person they can chat to that day.  Knowing they can rely on someone who’ll turn up on time, drive them to the right place and be ready to collect them after their appointment, makes them feel more confident and less stressed.  And community transport is usually much cheaper than using taxis.

As a volunteer driver, you’ll enjoy flexible hours to suit your lifestyle.  The work may be challenging and also great fun!  You can make a difference to other people’s lives in a very short time - and it can change your life too, giving you new interests and confidence.

We’ve taken every precaution to make our service as safe and supportive as possible for drivers and passengers alike.  This includes providing volunteers with a written agreement, detailed guidance and procedures to follow, PPE (including face masks for drivers and passengers) and practical advice. 

Can you join our drive to change lives as a community transport driver?  If you’re interested in volunteering, please get in touch immediately: call VASA on 01789 262889 or email emma@vasa.org.uk.  We’d like to hear from you even if you can’t start straight away.

NEW IMPROVED UBUS SERVICE

26/10/2020

0 Comments

 

​From today, the UBUS demand-responsive minibus service will offer a much-improved service in Stratford District, and there will be changes to a number of Flexibus services in the area.
 
All Towns and Parishes in Stratford-on-Avon District will now have a UBUS operating every day Monday - Friday. The service will operate from 0930 until 1900, except between 1430 and 1630 on school days. This gives a substantial increase in the number of potential journeys that can be made. The Booking Centre is open from 0830 to 1800 making it easier to book journeys. Bookings can still be made by calling 01789 264491. Fares on the service are £4.00 single and £6.00 return, however Concessionary Passes will also now be valid for travel on the service making it hugely beneficial to the majority of passengers.
 
The UBUS service is available to anybody who is unable to make their journey by normal public transport or if they have mobility impairment as the vehicles are also wheelchair-friendly. There are 5 operating zones and passengers can travel anywhere in their local area or to Stratford-upon-Avon. Passengers in Parishes within the Southam area will only be able travel to Leamington Spa and not Stratford-upon-Avon. Full details can be found in the attached dedicated UBUS information sheet.
