A charity whose vans were destroyed in an arson attack on a Rolls-Royce facility in the Bristol area have been told by the company that they can no longer park their vehicles there. Four Towns and Vale Link Community Transport suffered serious losses during a spate of arson attacks in Filton, Patchway, Stoke Gifford, Bradley Stoke and Little Stoke between 1am and 5am on Sunday, April 3.
As many as 12 vans owned by the charity, which provides transport for people in need across South Gloucestershire, were completely destroyed when they were torched on the car park of the Rolls-Royce site in Filton. Up to 40 vehicles were damaged overall, and 23 vehicles were destroyed.
The charity has been parking on the Rolls-Royce site for many years, but has now been told that all of them must be removed by Tuesday, April 12. A spokesperson for Rolls-Royce said that following the incident, only vehicles owned or driven by Rolls-Royce employees, authorized contractors or visitors will be allowed to park at their facilities.
