About this organisation
Are you a member of a community group, club or organisation? Do you need to transport members to attend meetings, activities and events, or to go out as a group? The new Cambridgeshire Minibus Brokerage Scheme (CaMBS) may well be the solution that you are looking for.
CaMBS is a vehicle-sharing scheme that enables
community groups, clubs and not-for-profit organisations to use accessible and affordable minibuses. CaMBS has over 50 minibuses available for hire and nearly all are wheelchair accessible. The scheme can supply drivers; groups can (subject to training) use their own drivers.
All community groups, clubs or organisations wishing to use this service must be on a not-for-profit basis, to comply with our vehicle licensing. Not-for-profit includes:
• Charities and housing associations
• Health and wellbeing groups
• Faith and belief based groups
• Interest, hobbies and arts groups
• Over 60’s groups
• Parents, preschool and toddlers groups
• Schools, colleges and academic groups
• Sports and games clubs
• Scouts, guides and cadets
• Youth clubs and groups
• Social clubs and community groups
• After school activities
Individuals with a disability, for example a wheelchair user (or their families), may be able to hire an available vehicle.
Hiring a minibus will depend on availability. Normally vehicles can be hired at any time and for any reasonable length of time. For example: part-day, day, weekend or even longer.
For not-for-profit groups needing a minibus, please contact us to request a membership application form first.
