As you may be aware the village has had a community minibus in excess of forty years. We are now on our fourth vehicle, a 2012 14 seat Transit style vehicle, This valuable asset is owned and operated by the Parish Council, having previously been operated by the Community Council up to March 2021.

The minibus is available for self hire at the rate of 80 pence per mile including all fuel. Drivers must be over 25 years old, have a current clean driving licence and have the appropriate vehicle categories on their full licence. In practice this is D1, a normal car licence.

Now that we are coming out of the COVID Lockdown when use of the minibus has simply not been possible, the Parish Council is keen to reinvigorate its use.

If you would like to make a booking or require further information please email minibus@cockfield.org.uk with your contact details. You will receive a response within 24 hrs. Please note the availability of the minibus may be viewed on the minibus page.

Alternatively you may contact the Parish Clerk for enquiries of a general nature on parish.council@cockfield.org.uk
