STARTING UP. HOW TO RUN A COMMUNITY MINIBUS. A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE. SECOND EDITION

This guide was written to assist groups running their own vehicles and for those who are thinking of getting involved. It is aimed at showing what resources are needed, how and where to get them, and exactly what the venture involves. It covers the aspects of vehicle selection, costing (at September 1980 prices), organization (adoption of a constitution, to register or not), sources of funds, operation of minibus and day-to-day organization, legal aspects, and custom-built vehicles.
