Help Upmo stay on the road

 

We’re sad to share that our minibus is not currently roadworthy following an attempted theft while it was parked outside Prestonpans Community Centre, where we have been supporting adults with learning disabilities over the past 10 years.

This will greatly impact our ability to run trips for our students while repairs are underway, and this is a vital part of what we do. We are working hard to obtain a replacement vehicle that meets our student’s accessibility requirements so we can continue trips in the community and beyond over the coming weeks, including our planned visit to the Trimontium Museum in Melrose.

We would appreciate any help or guidance on contacts and businesses who might be able to help us with a replacement so we can continue to run trips for our students. Please email hello@upmo.org.

Following some requests, we have started a Just Giving page to raise funds to hire an accessible minibus to continue with planned trips.
