The sole director is Wesley Goodwin after Sally Goodwin resigned at the time of the Little Gem name change and Geoffrey Goodwin resigned from that business a few years previously but Geoffrey still has other companies under the Go Goodwins name. Wonder if it was some kind of family dispute?

Heard this mentonied before but they did still share the same depot. Also heard rumours that the bus side of things was seperated, the name changed and was then offered to other operators to buy with Rotala looking like the buyer. Strange that only a month or so ago it was announced that the little gem branding was being dropped and everything was reverting back to Go Goodwins only for it to be sold.

Coach firms running tenders seems to have an effect on certain family run firms. Previously Haytons and Ashalls have both suddenly ceased to operate tenders and simply handed them to other operators. Haytons gave there's to bluebird, Ashalls gave theirs to JPT the first time, more recently handing them other to Go Goodwins although it was only schools I believe.
