Cuckmere Community Bus

Serving the Cuckmere Valley and beyond in East Sussex
Our latest bus

Our bus services throughout the Cuckmere Valley have been running since 1976 taking village people to their nearest towns for shopping, doctors appointments, or just pleasure. Our services are provided entirely by volunteers, keen to look after you. Try us one day!

Community bus services:
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday
Hailsham Town Services | 25 Alfriston - Lewes (Saturday)
126 Eastbourne - Alfriston - Seaford (Sunday & Bank Holidays)

We are very pleased to have been awarded the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service.

We operate the following leisure services:

At weekends and bank holidays we operate our award winning
Cuckmere Valley Ramblerbus Service 47 (resuming 24 March 2012)
For 2012 we are operating an Observatory Science Centre Shuttle
on the second Friday of each month from March to November

National Concessionary Passes are accepted on all of our services. We issue and accept Explorer tickets; we also accept Downlander and Lewes PlusBus tickets. (Please note: We do not accept these passes or tickets on our Special Event services)

No services operate on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

All our 16 seat minibuses are also available for private hire.

Latest News: January 2012

NEW SERVICE: From 9 March we are operating a new Observatory Science Centre Shuttle from Polegate Station. This circular service will operate on the second Friday of each month until November with an hourly frequency to connect with trains from Eastbourne, Lewes, Brighton, Hastings and Ashford.

We regret that the Cuckmere Valley Ramblerbus is not operating this winter because East Sussex County Council has withdrawn funding for the route from November until the end of March. The service will resume on Saturday 24 March 2012.

Volunteer drivers required

As a very busy volunteer organisation, we are always seeking to increase our team of drivers.

PCV licences are not required. All you need is a standard driving licence with a D1 classification (all licences prior to 1997 have this classification).

Full training and back up are given and you will work with a great team of people.

For further details phone John on 07802 305155.
