A BRIGHTLY decorated double decker community mission bus is set to make a difference to the community of Abergavenny next week.

The bus, given to Holy Trinity Parish Church by Zion Family Church, Talywaun when they had to close, features a downstairs cafe with DVD facilities, an upstairs open seating play area and a quiet room. It's been refurbished by members of the parish.

Rev Dr Bernard Sixtus, Associate Vicar of Abergavenny said, "The buss will visit various parts of town offering coffee and a chat to qualified counselling."

The bus will be staffed and driven by volunteers. It will be commissioned on June 13 at a service of blessing led by the right reverend Dominic Walker, Bishop of Monmouth.
