Cost of living support
If you need travel and transport support and are struggling with the cost of living, the following services and organisations might be able to assist you.
Remember - if you are struggling, you are not alone and there is no shame in asking for help. Everyone needs a little bit of extra support at some point in their lives.
Free bus passes
You can apply for a bus pass for free travel when you reach the female state pension age (whether you're a man or a woman), or if you have certain disabilities. This gives you free travel on most local bus services in England between 9.30am and 11pm weekdays, all day at weekends and on public holidays. In Plymouth, you can also use it on the park and ride services.
