Generous bus staff shell out on Easter egg treats for hospice kids

BUS operator staff teamed up to give children eggs-actly what they wanted over Easter!

Stagecoach’s Rotherham colleagues at the Rawmarsh depot teamed up with the Easter Bunny to deliver eggs to local youngsters at the Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice.

The Easter Bunny hopped on board a bus to help deliver the cracking gifts.

More than 100 eggs were donated by generous drivers, engineers, cleaners and other colleagues who came together to support young patients and bring a smile to their faces.

Matt Kitchin, managing director of Stagecoach Yorkshire, said: “I am so proud of the team who have, once again, shown their tremendous generosity.

“It is always wonderful to see our colleagues come together to support local children and young people.

“At Stagecoach, one of our core beliefs is that we will work to support our local communities – we want to give something back to communities where we live and work, and, at Easter, this is a brilliant way to do it.

“Everyone really got involved, and I know that our colleagues who delivered the eggs were very moved to see the smiles on the faces of the children, both on the bus and at the hospital, when they dropped off the Easter eggs.
