Keeping Community Transport Moving
As a charity, Buzzer Buses relies on an annual grant from Central Bedfordshire Council along with revenue received from donations and legacies and other funders in order to keep the service running. Maintaining and replacing buses is a costly business and we are always most grateful for any donations large or small.
Make a Donation
Members are encouraged to make a voluntary annual donation of £10 with their yearly renewal form which is a great help. We also receive funds raised by local groups and individuals as well as generous donations and grants from:
- Arnold Clark Community Fund
- Albert Hunt Trust
- The Connolly Foundation
- Co-op Community Fund
- Edward Gostling Foundation
- Garfield Weston Foundation
- Leighton Linslade Town Council
- Masonic Charitable Foundation

We help other charities including Headway
“The service that Buzzer Buses provide is so essential – you bring our clients into the Leighton Buzzard Centre every Wednesday; without this service most of them would not be able to get there and would become socially isolated. You take our clients out on trips in the local community and bring them in to Luton for Christmas lunch every year. We feel this service is invaluable to our clients and I suspect other disabled people living in Central Bedfordshire.”
-Lynne Atkins, Service Manager, Headway Luton
Legacies
If you have reason to be grateful to Buzzer Buses or you would like to provide a lifeline to others, please remember our work in your will. We help local people to remain independent by providing reliable, and safe door to door transport.
Legacies ensure our service will be available in the future to help more people who will need it. We were recently able to buy a new bus with one very generous legacy, but we welcome gifts of any amount.
Family and friends can, of course, be provided for in your will but after doing this you may wish to make a gift to Buzzer Buses.
Your gift can be:
A residual legacy – a gift of the remainder or a percentage of your estate after all other legacies have been made and any debts cleared.
A pecuniary legacy – a gift of a fixed sum of money.
If you have not made a will, we strongly recommend that you have one drafted by your solicitor. Your solicitor can amend an existing will or add a codicil. We are happy to assist and to provide you with further details.
