We aim to run buses to all away matches. The main pick-up and set-down point is East End Park, however, intermediate stops can be arranged on request for those who live further along the route.
We carry a small range of refreshments and for longer journeys we have arrangements with various hotels, restaurants and social clubs to provide meals.

DISABLED SUPPORTERS' GROUP
Dunfermline Athletic Disabled Supporters' Group is open to all people with disabilities and their families / friends. The Group allows discussion with the Club as one body rather than individuals independently, which is more effective.
We aim to raise awareness of the needs of disabled supporters attending matches.
We are hiring a bus for some away matches that is wheelchair accessible. This will allow disabled supporters to attend away matches without the worry about parking and access. Fundraising during the year will help to subsidise the cost of transport.
The Group meets at East End Park at 7.00pm on the first Wednesday of the month during the football season. Anyone interested should come along or contact us by e mail
GALEIEN SUPPORTERS CLUB
Situated off the coast of Norway, just next to Stavanger, is an island known as Hundvag. It is here on this tiny island that you'll find the Galeien restaurant and bar, home to one of our more remote Supporters Clubs.
If your Norwegian is any better than mine why not take a look at their site www.Galeien.no
If anybody knows of any supporters clubs any further a field than Hundvag, please let us know!
