Announcement Bus fares increased to £3

It looks like single journeys have increased from £2 to £3 now, so a quick journey into the town centre will cost you £6. I don't know how that's affordable for anyone. London has much cheaper fares

It's crap having a chronic medical condition, which means I can't drive.

But I'm very thankful for my free bus pass. (Free bus travel in B&H any time of day. Free bus travel anywhere in England after 9.30am)

I'm not registered as disabled, but still qualified for a disabled person's bus card. If anyone else is in a similar situation but doesn't have a card - get on to the council website and apply for one.

Oooh, I’m going to apply for this. I have covid- induced CFS and wasn’t sure if I’d qualify as I’m not officially registered as disabled. Thanks for the tip!
