I AM 75 years old and live on a Kidderminster road which has no bus service.
I have not got a car, but regularly walk into Kidderminster, one and a half miles away.
I went to collect my travel tokens from the district council (which only take me half as far as when I first had them), only to be told that unless I was 80 years old or could produce a letter from my doctor stating some disability (which, happily I do not have), I could not now receive the tokens.
Do the powers-that-be hope that people like myself will die before we can claim them, in order to save a bit of cash?
I say "shame on those who made this decision".
NAME AND ADDRESS SUPPLIED
