Yesterday evening there was a road traffic accident outside our house which unfortunately resulted in the Retro Reset bus being struck while it was parked up.
The collision caused damage to the driver's side front wing. As many of our followers will know, this comes just a few months after the accident in March 2026 that led to our first bus being written off and us having to source a replacement. To say we are gutted is an understatement.
The good news is that the damage appears to be repairable, and the bus will still be attending all of its planned appointments and events – it may just be sporting a bit of gaffa tape on the wing for a little while!
Most importantly, we are incredibly relieved that both drivers involved in the accident are okay, and our thoughts are with them following what must have been a very frightening experience.
However, we are deeply concerned that such a serious accident happened in a 30mph limit through our village. We hope this incident serves as a reminder to everyone to take care and drive safely. It was a sobering thought that just before we had been out doing some maintenance sitting exactly where the impact occurred.
Thank you to everyone for your continued support. We'll keep you updated as repairs progress and look forward to continuing our mission of bringing computing history and STEM education to schools and communities.

📚🚌 **Retro Reset Visits Summerdown School & The Southfield Centre!** 🚌📚

What a fantastic day we had visiting **Summerdown School and The Southfield Centre in Eastbourne** with our mobile computing museum!

We were delighted to share the history of computing with students across the school, giving them the opportunity to get hands-on with a wide range of vintage computers, consoles and technology from years gone by. From classic games to early home computers, it was wonderful to see so much enthusiasm, curiosity and excitement as students explored the old kit and discovered how technology has evolved over the decades.

Summerdown School is an all-through school supporting pupils from Early Years through to Secondary age with autism and learning disabilities, while The Southfield Centre provides specialist education for pupils with profound and multiple learning disabilities and complex medical needs. It was a privilege to bring our workshops to such an inclusive and inspiring learning community.

A huge thank you to all the staff for making us feel so welcome and to the students for their brilliant engagement throughout the day. Seeing smiles, hearing questions, and watching everyone interact with technology from different eras is exactly why we do what we do.

We look forward to visiting again in the future!

Spot the difference! 👀

We are back at Grovelands Primary school today. Originally we were booked for three days but we missed the last session due to the crash.

We are pleased to be back to finish the last session in the new bus!

Huge recognition for Lisa and Tora from Wealden Works yesterday, who were invited onto GB News to discuss Britain’s growing youth unemployment crisis and the barriers many young people are facing when trying to access work and opportunities.⁣
⁣
The discussion highlighted the increasing number of young people who are currently NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training), and the importance of programmes that provide real support, guidance, confidence and pathways into employment.⁣
⁣
We’re incredibly proud of the work Lisa, Tora and the wider team continue to do across Wealden, supporting young people through free employability programmes, workshops, mentoring and business partnerships that genuinely change lives.⁣
