Buchan Dial-A-Community Bus

Buchan Dial-a-Community Bus (BDACB) is a growing social enterprise in North East Aberdeenshire, focusing on reducing social exclusion through the provision of high quality community transport delivery and support services. It is a community owned Company Limited by Guarantee and Scottish Charity which has been operating for almost 20 years. Originally BDACB operated as a weekly service utilising a borrowed social work minibus, driven by off duty police officers. Since 2000 we have evolved into a major transport provider in the Buchan area and currently run services in Buchan and in Aberdeen City. We provide thousands of passenger journeys per year. None of these services are commercially viable but all provide an essential link for elderly, disabled, rurally and socially isolated people. BDACB aims to provide the very best services achievable whilst adhering to the utmost levels of quality. Vehicles are maintained to the highest standards including 6-8 weekly inspections, lift services /tests, regular and intensive maintenance etc. Staff and volunteers are trained to the appropriate levels and our administration systems comply with all expectations /requirements. We are founder members of the Aberdeenshire Community Transport Forum and regular attendees of the Aberdeenshire Bus Forums where we have built excellent relationships with the local bus operators.
