Byng House – Replacement Amenity Coach

In 2004 Byng House, the Legion’s Family Break Centre in Southport, purchased a bus which has been used at least four times each week for day trips and excursions for beneficiaries staying at Byng House for a break. The amenity coach is a valuable and necessary resource for the well-being of those who are visiting Byng House.

The bus is now beyond economical repair and Byng House needs to purchase a replacement, which will be in the region of £160,000.

Windermere Branch Vice Chairman presented a cheque for £10,000 to Byng House towards the aforementioned appeal. This sum was drawn down from their Wallace Fund legacy held on behalf of the branch.
