WARRINGTON'S Own Buses are joining in the national effort to lift spirits by displaying children's drawings of rainbows.

Pictures of rainbows have been appearing in houses throughout the borough during the coronavirus outbreak.

The town's bus drivers have spotted the pictures and are now showing rainbows of their own in support.

Head of commercial for Warrington's Own Buses, Gareth Mead, said: "We wanted to acknowledge all the pictures of rainbows we'd seen in houses across the town.

"We thought that by responding with a picture of our own, it might pass on a positive feeling.

Warrington Guardian:

"We worked with Mckenna Brothers, who are the UK's leading supplier of bus information displays to print and fit the drawings.

"If you'd like to send us your pictures, please do so through our website as we'd love to see them and might display yours too!"

The bus company has been providing free travel to NHS and health and social care workers, as well as to older people.
