We pick up passengers from their home and take them to their chosen destination. Waverley hoppa is a community transport service for people who do not have access to any other transport when they need it. Thanks to the candidness of everybody who took part we think the film fulfils its brief.Įvery year hoppa makes an extraordinary difference to thousands of people living in Waverley, a rural area in south west Surrey. Despite this, our overarching priority was to capture why so many passengers describe hoppa as a 'lifeline' and why it is so much more than a bus. In support of our strategic priority to reduce our carbon footprint and UN Sustainable Development Goal 13 (Climate action), we were also keen for the film to showcase our electric bus and the implicit message that travelling by bus is kinder to the environment.Īs a not-for-profit organisation that looks after every penny, the film has to work hard for us and fulfil more than one purpose. These messages support UN Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good health and well-being) and 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). ![]() We wanted to show our caring, friendly drivers in action and to give people who are thinking about using hoppa a chance to familiarise themselves with how the service works.Īlthough the film’s primary purpose is to reach potential new customers, we also want to show potential funders and supporters how hoppa is about more than getting people from A to B and how access to transport reduces isolation and loneliness and enables people to engage in their community.

To raise awareness about hoppa and to address some of the misconceptions about who can use the service, we worked with a student filmmaker from Godalming Sixth Form College to tell our story. We know that Waverley hoppa Community Transport is the answer to all these questions, but we are also aware that not enough people know that hoppa is here for them. ![]() What would you do if you could no longer drive and didn’t have access to any other transport?
