Our state of the art Ear Bus was a joint local project.

Follow the journey from start to finish. Officially donated in 2016 and the fit our of the hearing testing booth at the back of the bus and office space as you walk into the bus, started just before Christmas 2016. It was finished and presented to our community 7th April 2017. Its first hearing test was 15th May 2017.

Alloy Welding have been the project managers for the fit out of the bus. Scott Wilkin has handled the job with ease and very professionally. The expert builder was  Gary Nichols. They did not charge labor for this.

Ray Tobin signs designed the outside of the bus with the main focus being ear health and hearing loss education for our kids.He donated his labor to do this.



After the Christmas 2016 holidays things really moved quickly with the building.
​The team at Alloy Welding are experts at just about everything.
No job was too big or small for them and the attention to detail is amazing with their designs.

Next on the list was sign writing.

​Ray Tobin and his team worked with the HoH committee to get designs going. We had photo shoots with the puppets and designing sessions with Ray and the finished project is, in Ray's words,
"it looks a million dollars!"
