Background
To allow the older generations, millions of whom are suffering with failing health coupled with mobility and confidence issues to travel free prior to 0900hrs. These people need to attend hospital appointments before 0900hrs and shop for groceries when there are less people around. One journey a day robs meagre pensions payments of approximately £50 a month. £50 is alot to lose on freedom to travel.
