Getting around rural Lincolnshire has never been easier, more flexible or more enjoyable thanks to CallConnect. This demand-responsive bus service is transforming the way people travel, connecting communities that traditional routes often leave behind.
Whether you’re commuting, shopping, socialising, or simply enjoying a day out, CallConnect is a travel companion worth knowing about.
CallConnect isn’t your typical bus service. Instead of running on a fixed timetable or rigid routes, it operates on demand when you truly need it.
You book your trip in advance, and a fully accessible vehicle picks you up from a designated point, sometimes right outside your door. Taking you wherever you need to go without the service area.
With services running six days a week and a vast network covering market towns, villages, and coastal spots, it’s a lifeline for many, and a completely untapped gem for others.
The best thing about CallConnect is that it’s for anyone: students, pensioners, busy professionals and everyone in between. There’s no need for a special pass or reason. If you need to travel and CallConnect covers your area, then you’re good to go.
Registering for CallConnect is free and simple. Once signed up, booking a ride is straightforward via the mobile app, online portal or phone.
You can schedule trips from 30 minutes up to a week in advance, making it ideal for everything from last-minute errands to planned appointments.
Most journeys cost just a couple of pounds, with a cap in place to keep costs affordable, and contactless payment available for those who prefer to travel cashless. Concessionary passes are also accepted, allowing you to travel for free during off-peak hours.
Each CallConnect bus is equipped to accommodate wheelchairs and mobility aids, with trained drivers on hand to assist where needed. Whether you’re travelling solo with a shopping bag or using a mobility scooter, the service adapts to you.
You might be surprised by the range of destinations within CallConnect’s reach. From coastal adventures to countryside escapes, there is so much to explore.
Fancy a day out at the seaside? Skegness, with its sandy beaches, arcades, and fish and chips, is a classic destination you can reach with ease. If you’re in the mood for something a bit quieter, Anderby Creek offers a tranquil beach experience, perfect for a peaceful walk or a spot of birdwatching.
For a dose of history, head over to Wainfleet and take a tour of the iconic Batemans Brewery. The village itself is full of charm, with cosy tea rooms and riverside strolls.
CallConnect is also your ticket to community events. During the summer, you might catch a vintage car rally in Spilsby, a craft fair in Orby, or a local fete in Friskney.
If you’re travelling with kids, why not plan a visit to Natureland Seal Sanctuary in Skegness or take them crabbing at Chapel Point? CallConnect is here to support you wherever you want to go.
One of the best aspects of CallConnect is its role in promoting community well-being. For older people, those with limited mobility, or anyone living alone in a remote location, this service offers more than just a means of transport; it’s a social connector.
Regular journeys to market days, libraries or lunch clubs become opportunities for conversation and connection. CallConnect also enables you to access healthcare appointments, job interviews, and educational opportunities, which you might otherwise struggle to reach.
Choosing CallConnect isn’t just smarter for your wallet, it’s also better for the planet. By reducing the number of single-occupancy car journeys, CallConnect helps lower emissions and reduce traffic congestion in small towns and rural areas.
If enough of us make that switch even once or twice a week, the collective environmental benefit is enormous. Because it operates more efficiently than traditional rural bus routes, with vehicles running when needed, it reduces unnecessary mileage, fuel consumption and emissions.
When you ride CallConnect, you’re making a more sustainable travel choice without compromising on convenience.
Getting started is as easy as registering online or through the app. Once you’ve signed up, you can begin booking rides straight away.
All you need is your name, address and contact information. From there, plan your travel, get your booking confirmation and enjoy your journey.
The next time you’re thinking about how to get to your GP, do your weekly shop, attend an event or enjoy a spontaneous day out, remember CallConnect. It’s there to help, it’s open to everyone, and it’s quietly revolutionising rural transport, one ride at a time.
Travelling should be fun, easy and simple, but all too often, the stress of planning, driving, navigating, and dealing with delays can take the joy out of your journey. Whether heading out for a short day trip or embarking on a longer holiday, choosing the right mode of transport can make all the difference.
Coach travel is a fantastic way to enjoy stress-free journeys, offering comfort, convenience, and affordability. At Hunt’s Coaches, we take the stress out of your travel experiences, whether you’re travelling solo, with your family, or with a group of friends. Here’s why coach travel is the best choice for a relaxing and hassle-free trip.
One of the biggest advantages of coach travel is that you don’t have to get behind the wheel.
Driving can be exhausting, especially on long journeys where traffic congestion, unfamiliar routes, and parking issues can quickly turn a pleasant trip into a stressful ordeal.
Trains and buses can be unpredictable, with delays, cancellations, and overcrowding making travel stressful. Coach travel takes the stress away by offering a smooth and reliable service with guaranteed seating and a more personal experience.
One of the biggest stress factors in travel is getting to and from your departure point. Hunt’s Coaches offers convenient pickup locations and, in many cases, door-to-door service to make your journey effortless.
Coach travel provides a friendly, sociable experience that you won’t get when travelling alone by car. Whether you're travelling with friends, family, or making new connections on the journey, the relaxed setting of a coach encourages interaction and shared experiences.
If you're looking for an eco-friendly way to travel, coach travel is one of the best options. Coaches have a lower carbon footprint per passenger compared to cars and planes, making them a more sustainable choice for environmentally-conscious travellers.
If you're looking for an eco-friendly way to travel, coach travel is one of the best options. Coaches have a lower carbon footprint per passenger than cars and planes, making them a more sustainable choice for environmentally-conscious travellers.
With fewer vehicles on the road, coach travel helps reduce traffic congestion and overall pollution levels. Additionally, many modern coaches are designed with fuel efficiency and reduced emissions in mind, making them a greener alternative to traditional travel methods.
Unlike driving, you don’t need to worry about fuel, tolls, or parking fees. There are no hidden costs or extras which might unexpectedly pop up.
Many coach trips include tickets, accommodation, and entry fees for attractions. Take the stress out of organising by having someone else do all the hard work whilst you sit back and enjoy the whole experience.
Whether you're planning a UK-based getaway or looking to travel further afield, coach travel provides access to a wide range of destinations without the hassle of planning every detail yourself.
Hunt’s Coaches offers trips to seaside resorts, historical landmarks, vibrant cities, and even international locations.

The summer holidays are here, and Year 6 students are excited as they prepare to transition to secondary school in September. For parents, this can also bring a mix of emotions, from pride to anxiety.
How do you make sure your child is ready? We’re here to help you navigate this transition smoothly.
Our handy guide to preparing your child for secondary school includes essential information about acquiring a bus pass through Hunt’s Coaches in Lincolnshire.
One of the best ways to ease your child's nerves about starting secondary school is to familiarise them with their new environment. Many schools offer open days or transition days where Year 6 students can visit, meet teachers, and get a feel for the school layout.
You’ve likely already considered this; however, it can sometimes be possible to book an additional tour of the school during the summer holidays. Knowing where important facilities like the toilets, lunch rooms, and sports hall can make the first day less daunting.
You can usually find a full list of what your child needs on the school’s website. Make a checklist of the essentials your child will need for secondary school. This might include:
Check if the school has specific requirements for these items and shop early to avoid the last-minute rush. You can make this a fun experience for your child by including them in the planning and shopping to give them a sense of ownership over the process.
Reliable transport ensures your child arrives at school safely and on time. Hunt’s Coaches has provided school bus services in Lincolnshire for over 90 years, offering a dependable and affordable option for school transport.
Here’s what you need to know about our services:
Comfort and Peace of Mind: With modern, well-maintained vehicles and a commitment to child safety, you can rest assured your child is in good hands.
You can contact our team if you would like more details or to request a school bus timetable.
As well as arranging transport, make sure that you help your child get ready by teaching them how to signal a bus (putting their hand out when they see it approaching). It's also important to look at the schedule together and make sure they plan their day to be at the bus stop 5 minutes before their bus is due.
Secondary school is a time for your child to become more independent. Over the summer, encourage your child to take on more responsibilities, such as:
These small steps can build confidence and prepare them for the increased independence of secondary school life.
Make the most of the summer holidays by engaging your child in fun and educational activities. Here are some ideas:
Visit Museums and Historical Sites: Lincolnshire has many fascinating museums and historical sites that can spark curiosity and provide valuable learning experiences. For a dose of local history, visit the International Bomber Command Centre or Museum of Rural Life.
Outdoor Adventures: Explore local parks and nature reserves or take family hikes. Physical activity is excellent for health, and it can also help calm nerves and spend time together as a family.
Summer Reading Challenge: Lincolnshire libraries offer summer reading challenges. Encourage your child to participate and choose a range of genres to prepare for their secondary learning.
Creative Projects: Get involved in arts and crafts or start a summer-long project like gardening or building a model. Giving your child something to focus on with you can be a great way to enjoy the summer.
Of course, you want your child to enjoy the summer break; however, maintaining a routine can help ease the transition back to school. Gradually reintroduce earlier bedtimes and morning routines as the start of the school year approaches.
This can help your child adjust more quickly when school starts rather than having the dreading morning battle on the first day of school.
Transitioning from primary to secondary school is a big milestone in your child's life. By preparing early, arranging reliable transport, and making the most of the summer holidays, you can help ensure a smooth and positive start to their secondary school journey.
We hope you have a wonderful summer with your child. For more information on school bus services and to view timetables, contact our team or look at our school bus service.
