News the local

Dear Readers Firstly, thank you so much for all your comments and positive feedback about our new website. Advertisers have already started to benefit from this additional service which is easy for you to use so why not have a look today?! Due to the increase in advertisers in the printed edition this month, we have had to remove our events page.

However, details of all events can be found on the website calendar under the events tab. We do have a few fantastic events lined up with adverts in this edition so do flick through and put the dates in your diary.

Please don’t forget to give your feedback on the new coach commuter service planned to start in September (See page 5 for info.).

If you enjoy walking and would like to earn some extra money then we are looking for new distributors. Call Anna on 01732 844246.

Please also ‘Like’ our Facebook page....it all helps!

COMMUTE NE W

COM MUT ER SER VIC E

BER! M E T P E GS STARTIN

Brookline Coaches are looking at the feasibility to operate a Brand New Commuter Service to and from London.

Commuter Coaches have become popular due to the escalating rail fares and parking charges.

We intend to drop off in London where the train does not.

Making it easier to get your place of work.

From Maidstone, Kings Hill Estate, West Malling areas to London.

Serving Canary Wharf, The City, Cannon Street, Embankment and Victoria.

Offering all Commuter Customers: Luxury coach with ample leg room, guaranteed seat, on board WC and hot drinks facilities, FREE WI-FI. We have a provisional timetable and fares.

At this stage we need YOUR feedback. If you are interested in a brand new Commuter Coach service to London, please call our team or email on the details shown. Once we have compiled everyone’s feedback we hopefully could get the wheels in motion.

Fares from £268 for a month* and Annually from £2.335* *Proposed fares. Timetable and fares to be confirmed

@brooklineTours We also offer......

Private hire, Day Breaks and Holidays.

Executive and Corporate Hire with our cars and coaches.
