The YUSU Magic Bus has been struggling to muster the student donations that help keep it afloat.
YUSU has budgeted for £40 worth of donations per month; however, over the course of last term only £30.68 has been amassed from the pockets of 1,368 students.
Charlie Leyland, YUSU Academic and Welfare Officer has commented that “the lack of donations is not unusual, and we budget to help towards the cost of running it.”
However, the Union website shows a disclaimer that donations “ensure that the service is able to continue.”
YUSU have been actively seeking to remedy this situation.
