A MINIBUS has been donated to a community hub serving villages south of Hereford as it continues to support members of the rural community through the coronavirus pandemic.

The hub, which supports the villages of Llangrove, Llangarron, Llancloudy and Three Ashes received a boost as a member of the parish donated the vehicle for them to use.

The community hub had been set up to help all in the parish through the pandemic by delivering shopping and prescriptions to those in need.

A group of volunteers came together to help locals with anything from IT problems or loneliness to delivering meals or collecting items from the supermarket or surgery.

The hub said public transport in all rural communities has always been difficult, but will be slightly easier now thanks to Dr James Hull's donation.

Once the Covid-19 situation improves, it will allow volunteers to offer considerable transport links within the community.
