We are pleased to announce that for the fourth year running we have been independently assessed by CHAS as being competent with our Health and Safety Policies. We are one of the few operators within the county that have consistently achieved this award which reflects greatly on the attention that we pay to all aspects of providing our customers and staff with a very high level of care when using or working with Bennetts Coaches.
We see that this is another benefit when choosing to use Bennetts Coaches that you are guaranteed to get the complete service and recommend that customers check all operators for their compliance with Health and Safety measures.
Bennetts Coaches are proud to be corporate sponsors of Rugby For Heroes and with an event scheduled for 31st July 2010, are sure many of our customers will be interested in showing their support for our Armed Forces.
Bennetts Coaches are delighted to announce that we have been awarded the National Express Contract between Gloucester and Gatwick/Heathrow Airports. We are currently arranging for the purchase of new coaches that will be all leather interior and with wheelchair access adding a new dimension to our already prestigious fleet.
This contract award now brings the total amount of new business secured by Bennetts in the last six months to an additional £2.5 Million per annum and underlines the hard work and effort that all of our staff have put into making Bennetts Coaches a Premium Operator and the leading independent bus and coach company in Gloucestershire.
We are looking forward to providing all future customers on the National Express Services a truly customer orientated service.
The Park and Ride services in Gloucester and Cheltenham continue to be very popular, with one million journeys completed this year. With new buses now in operation in Cheltenham the service continues to grow.
