Hedingham & Chambers
Hedingham & Chambers was a bus operator, part of the larger Go East Anglia unit within the Go-Ahead Group, consisting of the Hedingham and Chambers brands. The group was formed when Go-Ahead purchased the two firms in June 2012. After the sale, the two brands were retained with assets, such as depots, shared along with the launch of a unified website in 2021.
In March 2025, Go East Anglia announced it would begin to consolidate its bus operations in the East of England under the Konectbus brand from June 2025, with the Hedingham & Chambers names now being retired in favour of Konectbuses Essex and Suffolk and vehicles adopting a blue livery. In October 2025 Go East Anglia was acquired by the Transport Made Simple Group, bringing Hedingham & Chambers, now Konectbuses Essex and Suffolk back into independent ownership, alongside its Norfolk based counterpart Konectbus Norfolk.
Hedingham was a public bus brand operated by Hedingham & Chambers in Essex, itself a subsidiary of the Go-Ahead Group (forming part of the Go East Anglia).
In 1921 Aubrey Letch shortly after serving in World War I, with his parents' help, trading under his own name commenced operating a coach hire company, gradually expanding to run bus services to Braintree and Sudbury on their market days of Wednesday and Thursday respectively. In March 1935 Letch purchased the competing business of PW Finch of Castle Hedingham. This allowed Letch to take over the Monday to Saturday workers' service to Braintree. In the late 1950s, he further expanded the business with routes to Gestingthorpe, Pebmarsh and Halstead.
In early 1960, Letch retired due to ill health and sold the company to Donald MacGregor, which was renamed Hedingham & District Omnibuses. Since then the company has grown by acquiring other companies, including:
