The Bardi bus came into our lives six years ago. She has played an instrumental role transporting people to the Walkatjurra Walkabout in the Goldfields, to the Karlamilyi walk in the Pilbara. She has never let us down travelling backtracks and highways from Fremantle to Alice Springs and Adelaide and beyond  helping Traditional Owners get to the Aboriginal led Australia Nuclear Free Alliance (ANFA) meetings, along with taking mob across country for gatherings at the Aboriginal tent embassy in Canberra and has just got back from the first radioactive tour in Western Australia.

We have just renewed the insurance and registration so she can be ready to head out on the Walkatjurra Walkabout in August. But she needed a few repairs to get over the pits and still needs a couple of new tyres.

This has all came to $4,000 and we are a bit short to cover it all..  We know that there are hundreds of people out there that have had an awesome experience and travelled far around this Country on the Bardi Bus..  We hope that you can all chip in a bit to keep her on the road and give hundreds of people an opportunity to have the same experience.  

After six years of these amazing journeys our beloved Bardi Bus needs some love and care. Such a solid member of our wider community needs some attention in order to be able to continue to fight the good fight, connecting communities and city folk together with Traditional Owners and country.

The Bardi Bus has just been over the pits and had some repairs done.

Insurance $1,300

Repairs $ 1,400

Registration $830

New Tyres $500

TOTAL $4,030

Having done 1,000's of km's on backtracks and dirt roads every year, the Bardi Bus always needs a lot of upkeep.  To keep the cost of people coming on these events at an affordable price we seek the suuport of the community to keep us on the road.

With out the help from the community the Bardi Bus would not be able to support the community to the extent that it does.
