We have received this promotional material from Epping Forest Community Transport a local charity providing a much needed public transport to residents of Chigwell.  Many of the families that use the service find it extremely convenient as it shaves of over an hour for their children's school travel or find it necessary, because of their vulnerabilities or the cost of the service.

We ask that you read the material and see if the public service they are providing is valuable to you as we believe the vital bus service should be saved.
