With headquarters in Huddersfield and eight depots across the region, Arrow Self Drive has agreed a long-term partnership with Harrogate Ladies College after having supplied the independent school with short-term vehicle-hire for the last 15 years

The contract will see the firm supplying the school with exclusive use of two 17-seater minibuses for school trips and staff outings. The vehicles, which have been branded-up to include the Harrogate Ladies’ College logo will be supplied by Arrow Self Drive’s Knaresborough depot.

Harrogate Ladies’ College is an independent boarding and day school located in the town of Harrogate, North Yorkshire. Founded as a girls' senior school in 1893, the college now educates girls from ages 2 to 18 and boys up to age 11.
