Now that some progress is happening, I’ll keep this page updated with new info as it happens. The (grossly simplified) plan is below:
- Form a committee to take over the Bus ✔
- Set out and sign a Constitution to form a charity ✔
- Register with Charity Commission Registered Charity Number 1190312 ✔
- Open a bank account ✔
- Legally take over Bus ✔
- Get 240V system checked- Gazeley Coachworks ✔
- Get quotes for repairs needed (est: £10,000 total) ✔
- Fundraise for tax, insurance and repairs = ON THE ROAD! ✔
- Open Days to show Bus to potential stakeholders and donors – IN PROGRESS
- Fundraise for other essentials✔
- Recruit volunteers – IN PROGRESS
- Start operations.

As with all plans, it can be flexible if needed, but the above is at least a guide to what we want to happen.
