I have a friend who is a Schizophrenic. He goes out in to the Community every day.
I would like your views on if you feel Mental Health sufferer's deserve to have a disabled bus pass, or not?
My friend has found out that his bus pass won't be renewed, because his illness doesn't fit in to the concessionery bus pass rules.
I only just scraped through, to have my bus pass renewed, but from next year, I don't know if I'll be able to renew my bus pass or not.
I told my friend to keep fighting his case. Just cos of what the council have said, doesn't mean he should give up, I said. I told him about an organisation that might help him.
