London Assembly calls for free Carers' Travelcard

The London Assembly is calling for discounted or free public transport for unpaid carers. Members have backed a motion urging Transport for London to look at introducing a Carers' Travelcard. It follows concerns that travel costs are adding to carers' money worries, with some families forced to choose between paying for a young carer's Oyster card and buying food.
