LERRYN AREA MINIBUS ASSOCIATION

• Don't drive?
  

• Hate parking?
• Want to reduce your carbon footprint?
• Enjoy company on outings and shopping trips? 
• Need to hire a bus ?

Travel by LAMA!

 

 

Volunteer drivers take our community minibus from Lerryn via Lostwithiel to local towns, shops, garden centres and places of interest. Charges are very modest, and a phone call (01208 871272) books you a place. In addition, many local organisations such as the primary school, Women's Institute, playgroup, church and theatre club find it very advantageous to hire the bus for their own activities.

The timetables you  can see on this page are also displayed in public places in Lerryn and Lostwithiel, and are published in 'The Bridge' and 'Lostwithiel News'.

Keep your bus on the road

Keeping a community bus running is hard work! If you could give some time to helping on the committee, or if you would be interested in joining our team of drivers,  please call the Chairman, Ann Henderson, on 01208 873428.

Lerryn does drinking and gambling for LAMA !

"The only person on a winning streak is the bus!" muttered Ronald as he queued to place another bet at the hilarious Racenight evening in the hall. 'Honest Dave' St.John operated the Tote while bookie's runner Keith Rooker kept everybody in line and the rest of us ate bacon butties and cake and tried to predict which horse - or pig! - was going to win. It was a highly entertaining evening and we cleared almost £250 for the minibus, so thank you all for supporrting LAMA and see you next year!

MINIBUS FOR HIRE

Lerryn Area Minibus Association exists to support rural communities and help to combat rural isolation by providing accessible, safe and affordable transport services for local people and community groups. Our very comfortable minibus is operated under Section 19 or 22 permits and is available for private hire.

Only members of our association can use our minibus when operated using our section 19 Permit but we are authorised to operate private hires when using our Section 22 Permit when it is not being used on our registered routes.

Local people and community groups have used our services to make the following journeys:

-  Attend a concert in the Carnglaze caverns

-  Ferry a family group from their accommodation in Golant to Lerryn throughout a weekend on the occasion of their father’s 80th birthday party

- Attend a lecture at the University of Plymouth                                                                -  Visit a brewery in Rock followed by a meal in Padstow

- Celebrate an 18th birthday party at a disco in Newquay

The minibus can take up to 16 passengers plus the driver and the modest rate of £1.20 per mile includes all diesel costs. All drivers have to over 25 years of age and must produce their driving lesson at the half-hour familiarisation lesson that all drivers have to attend prior to driving our automatic minibus for the first time. In case any problems arise, we have RAC breakdown cover and are fully insured.

For further information or to make a booking, contact Keith and Annie Singer on 01208 871272.
