We will be in touch
shortly, thank you.

Please ring me as I have a query

Our business name north of the Hawkesbury River is, as you might have guessed: Central Coast Community Transport.
We are all very excited—with a new operating base to staff and equip, so as to mirror our operational procedures for the worthy folk between Lake Munmorah in the north and Mooney Mooney in the south. The vehicle-miles are going to be an eye-opener, aren’t they!
Amid the new is our wrap up of 2023-24, reporting legally and financially to Association members at our annual general meeting. You needn’t be a member to receive our services but we love that so many of you do as a show of support.
Not new and still sad is that I feel I must keep reminding you of scams. I can’t say what I really think (suffice to say “so many sad nasty humans, so little pixie dust”). Anyway, please be careful: always check that the person contacting you is legitimate before sharing your details, sending money or clicking email or internet links. If you are unsure call the organisation using contact details from your records or the organisation’s official website. If something feels wrong, stop whatever the transaction or conversation immediately, and if you think you’ve been scammed, act quickly. If it involved money report the scam to your bank immediately. And local police by calling or reporting any incident to ScamWatch and Report Cyber.
Thus my friends, conjure some pixie dust and repeat after me: We are not our past, that is just a resource we glean from. And
the basis for all new beginnings!
