Man says bus cut will mean he cannot get to job

A man in Guernsey says he will not be able to get to his full-time job following the news that a bus service for disabled islanders is stopping from July.

UnLtd at the Ron Short Centre said it was told on Wednesday its application to the Social Investment Fund had been rejected, forcing it to stop its transport service.

Lee Vaudin, 46, said: "It means a lot to me to actually get here [to work] because I get paid a wage for doing what I do. The Ron Short bus comes to pick me up in the morning and take me back at night. If there is no way of getting in, I can't come."

However, the States of Guernsey said there were other options for islanders like the Voluntary Car Service and Income Support payments, which could be used to cover travel costs.
