PLYMOUTH Citybus's sparkling transport initiative is once again returning to the city to spread some festive cheer.
From December 15 to 23, the Santa Bus will be heading to parts of Plymouth for family and friends to come together and see the "spectacularly Christmassy bus" This year, Plymouth Citybus is raising money for the Primrose Foundation in Plymouth, and Luna's Fund in Cornwall.
The Primrose Foundation is a local breast care charity, originally set up in 1995 via an appeal to help fund and develop a 'One Stop Clinic' in Plymouth, where a oneday assessment is carried out by a variety of different breast care services to find out whether or not further investigations are needed.
Luna's Fund aims to support grieving parents who have lost their baby before, during, or after birth, by offering a choice of practical services immediately upon leaving the hospital. The services aim to positively impact the family's grieving process and give hope.
Below are the areas and dates for the Santa Bus 2023. Each route aims to start at around 4pm. All updates on timings and changes each night can be found on the dedicated Santa Bus Twitter page.
