Free Buses for Disabled People in England | UK News

from UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Starting April 1st, disabled people in England will ride buses for free anytime — a major win after years of restrictive weekday time limits. This nationwide change, funded by £60 million and championed by disability advocates and politicians like Andy Burnham, removes daily barriers to work, socializing, and independence. While some question the funding source, the government says it’s drawn from existing departmental budgets. With similar policies already in place elsewhere in the UK, this move aims to create a more equal, accessible future for all.
