FOR HALF-A-CENTURY it has been offering people an alternative to the train, picking people up from Mereoak and taking them to destinations across the country.

Now, to celebrate its 50th birthday, National Express is giving away a surprise prize every day for 50 days. Among the awards is a 50-year travel pass for its entire network of coach services.

The total prize pot is worth over £10,000 and includes annual cinema passes, restaurant and shopping vouchers, luxury gift hampers and an overnight break.

Chris Hardy, managing director of National Express UK Coach: “As part of our celebrations, we wanted to give away something extra special.

“Free travel is always a fantastic prize but even more so at the minute. The lucky winner can use our famous white fleet of modern coaches to see friends and family, visit attractions or attend events.

“And just think of the hundreds of destinations from Exeter to Edinburgh and Newquay to Newcastle they will be able to explore with National Express.”
