Require transport authorities to fund free concessionary fares for unpaid carers
Unpaid Carers (carers who do not provide care as a career) are a crucial part of society saving the government £162 billion every year. Travel is an essential service and yet, is a barrier that makes it harder for us to deal with our many responsibilities.
Public transport is a service that is a need, we are an essential part of the community so why can't we use it too! Not everyone can get benefits so let's help carers get what they deserve, it may not seem important to most but to many it will change their lives. We deserve to be treated as equals...Is free/concessionary transport for carers to much to ask for in return for those who dedicate their lives to care for others?
