“We are delighted to announce this new partnership with South Pennine Community Transport to launch our new bus service.
“This discounted bus service will bring students right into our campus for the first time. The timetable is designed with students in mind, to sit alongside our course timetable, and will bring you directly to our front door.

Supporting people to improve their skills and secure good jobs is absolutely critical to the success of our people and places across South Yorkshire.
