OUR scheme offering free loan of a T-reg 16-seater mini bus to schools in East Lancs has been extended to run until the end of June.

Sponsors of the project, Lancashire Leyland DAF, Accrington, have generously offered the extra month for any school visit of up to five days.

Users will need to provide their own fuel, insurance and driver and can borrow the bus for any type of educational or leisure activity.
