Chistmas Bus driver achieves hero status

Long time bus driver Margaret Pannell, started decorating her bus in the lead up to Christmas to give her passengers a bit of holiday cheers, but it has turned into so much more.

Since the enthusiastic response she received in the first year she did it, her decoration collection has grown, there are carols and lollies for the kids and then one year she decided to put a collection box at the front of the bus to raise monry for the local hospital.

In just the past two years, this has seen Margaret raise of $5000 for the Mater and find her self in the top ten nominees to become the Hunter Hero. Read more about Margaret’s story here.

We wish Margaret the best of luck – she’s already a hero to us!
