What the petition asks
We call on the Government to fund free bus travel for every child under 18 to allow them to socialise more and go out more, and it could also helps those in extreme poverty to go places.
We believe it would help so much for those in poorer areas and to help children stay fit and active by allowing them to go out more. It could also help teenagers to get to college if they don’t have a drivers license yet. Scotland already does something similar so I think it should be extended.
