Cumbria County Council is responsible for administering the English National Concessionary Travel Scheme (external link). The scheme will provide free off peak travel on scheduled bus services for people of pensionable age and people with disabilities. A new Travel Initiative is being introduced to help disabled people access work and training. The initiative will enable those with a Disability NoWcard to travel for free before 9.30am for three specific purposes. The money for this initiative is provided to help those with a disability who find themselves in financial hardship from the loss of concessionary travel when accessing work, training or day-care services.
