Buspasses & railcards

I know many disabled people are aware of this, but many others are not. Being epileptic, I cannot drive, in case I had a seizure at the wheel, but because of this reason I am entitled to a bus pass & a railcard to get around. Free travel on the buses, which can be used individually or you can get one to use with your companion/carer & a 1/3 knocked off rail fares, which can also be used with a companion/carer/friend. They are useful when you want to go out.

Thanks thank you for bring this information to our attention, I am sure many members will be making enquires about these offers.

Iv put this on here a few times.
Iv had both cards since the 90s. And yes they are very useful.
I was told im too disabled to drive so the csrds are a good way to get around.

My disabled rail card costs £20 per year but is worth it for the third off saving. Also got my bus pass a few years a go. The bus pass lasts for 5 years.
