Hello
Everyone
Here is the latest exciting news for everyone interested in the
Mobiloo. We are now getting increasing numbers of bookings, so
thanks to all of you who have already hired it. It’s being very
well received by events organisers and disabled people who use it.
Some
types of hire in Gloucestershire may now be free!
If you are a disabled person, or are a charity/not-for-profit
organisation running an event specifically aimed at disabled
people, the Barnwood
Trust and the Gloucestershire Disability Fund will
consider supporting part or all of your Mobiloo hire charge. Just
get in touch with us to check that the Mobiloo is available on any
dates you want, and we can link you with the potential funders.
Both have quite fast decision turn-around times.
Other
hires might attract a subsidy.
It is always worth getting in touch with us if you think the
Mobiloo could be useful for your organisation, event or family. We
need to bring in a good income to keep the vehicle on the road, but
we also want it out there being used rather than sitting in our car
park. So please do get in touch and talk with us about availability
and our flexible charging system.
Fancy
being a volunteer driver?
We have a growing pool of volunteers who drive the Mobiloo a few
times a year. You can go to interesting events! Save the Mobiloo
money! And then be able to write ‘I can drive a toilet’ on your CV.
There is a role
description on our website – Give Jane a call for
more information – contact details below.
There is
a Mobiloo film.
Our great little two and a half minute film introduces the Mobiloo
and highlights the benefits for disabled people by hearing from a
couple of its users. Here is the link to it - http://mobiloo.org.uk/mobiloo/
Want to
know where the Mobiloo is going to be?
Here’s a random selection of events the Mobiloo is going to in the
next few months. Gloucestershire summer festivals at Lakefest
and Milefest;
Active Gloucestershire adapted cycling events; Carers
Gloucestershire’s ‘Walk a
Mile in My Shoes’ day and Gloucester
Carnival. Just log on to our website to find out the
latest up to date list of all the public
events the Mobiloo will be attending.

information.

Best wishes
The

is!), please do forward this email on and help spread the word.
