It would seem that several members are reluctant to come on theatre visits if they do not have their own transport, and they do not like to depend on others. With increases in group size, it is possible to hire a minibus from Stokesley (as we did for the Sage) but we do need sufficient numbers. If you don’t book until you see if there is transport, then it is chicken and egg! We then can’t get enough firm bookings to book public transport and have to rely on drivers accommodating non-drivers.

So please in future if you will send with the booking form and cheque an indication that transport is essential for you to book and then your ticket will only be booked on condition that transport is made available.
