Free All-Day Bus Passes for Disabled | Leicester News

Starting April 1st next year, disabled people across England will get free, all-day, every-day bus passes — a major win after years of campaigning. Current time-limited passes, often ending at 9:30 AM on weekdays, are being scrapped nationwide, funded by reallocating £60 million from existing government budgets. This move eases financial pressure and boosts independence, as buses are vital for work, school, and medical appointments. Campaigners hailed it as a long-overdue victory, arguing disabilities don’t take breaks — neither should travel passes.
