Monthly Bus Trips

20230719_135639

We organize fun bus trips for members, cruising through the South Canterbury countryside. There is a stop for a delicious lunch at a local café or pub.

We use mini vans (easy to get in and out), with volunteer drivers and assistants.

This service is for Age Concern South Canterbury members only. The bus fee is $10 per person and members cover their own meal cost.

Bookings essential. A medical consent form is required and will be organised by Age Concern Manager close to the bus trip.
