Story
SOS - Support Old Southampton Buses
The Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust (S&DTHT) is a Southampton based bus preservation charity, which relies on donations and support from its members and the general public. Visit our website www.sadtht.co.uk for more information about our work.
Due to the world wide pandemic 'COVID-19' health crisis, the usual fundraising methods have ceased for the time being. We are therefore asking for support from as many people as possible to keep the wheels turning during this difficult time. Any donations would be greatly appreciated and will go towards general costs of the Trust and the upkeep of the vehicles.
The buses are regularly seen on the streets bringing back memories for many, this year so far more than 20 events we were due to attend have either been postponed or cancelled.
If you wish to support us by joining the Trust and becoming a member, we are able to process membership applications via email and BACS payment during this time of hardship.
Donations can be made via our Just Giving page, by emailing us at webmaster@sadtht.co.uk to make a BACS payment or by sending a cheque made payable to 'S&DTHT' to SOS - S&DTHT, 104 Oaktree Road, Southampton, SO18 1PH.
S&DTHT is part of a wider registered charity: Working Omnibus Project Ltd (WOMP), which is a company limited by guarantee.
