Stagecoach and Rotary Club work together to take kids to Cairnie Fruit Farm

25 Jul 2024

  • Stagecoach provided a bus free of charge for children in the Buckhaven and Methil area to visit Cairnie Fruit Farm on Sunday 21st July
  • Excursion arranged by The Rotary Club of Buckhaven & Methil

 

On Sunday 21st July, Stagecoach East Scotland, in partnership with The Rotary Club of Buckhaven & Methil transported a group of children in the local area to visit Cairnie Fruit Farm for free.

This provided local children, who may not ordinarily have got the chance to go on an excursion to a local attraction, to have a fun day out without worrying about entry fees or travel arrangements, thanks to The Rotary Club and Stagecoach.

Working together with local charities to improve the community, The Rotary Club of Buckhaven & Methil are a local organisation who look to grow local communities and unite people from different backgrounds, and this trip was just one of many events throughout the year that they organise. This trip allowed children to Cairnie Fruit Farm, near Cupar, which includes fruit picking, a farm shop and cafe, an outdoor funyard and a 6 acre Mega Maze!

Jamie Lawrie, Operations Manager at Stagecoach East Scotland said, “Community is at the heart of everything we do at Stagecoach, and we’re absolutely delighted to help out The Rotary Club by getting children to Cairnie Fruit Farm.”

Alistair Robb, President of The Rotary Club of Buckhaven & Methil said, “Buckhaven & Methil Rotary are delighted to have worked with Stagecoach on this event. Supplying a coach and driver for the trip meant that we could afford to take even more families than planned to Cairnie for the day out. The kindness of Stagecoach also means that we can put more money towards our other summer events for children in this area."

Kay Rooney, Rotary Member said, "Sunday was a fantastic day out and we can't thank Stagecoach enough for their support. Everyone had such a great day out, and we had some very tired out kids on the way home. Tommy, our Stagecoach driver was a superstar"
