SAVE STAFFORDSHIRE LOCAL BUS SERVICES FROM BEING CUT

I am the district councillor for the Ipstones Ward. The bus services that the Staffordshire County Council are subsidising are to be cut in March 2018.

People rely on the bus service to access their school, college, university, dentist, doctor, opticians, chiropodist, hairdressers, seeing their grandchildren, visiting family and friends, grocery shopping, plus many other services.

It will also affect all people who have no other means of transport or can no longer drive. This will include older people, disabled people and those who cannot afford a car. People's independence will be lost and they will become isolated. 

Once again rural areas are taking the hit of cuts. Council tax goes up and services go down.

The vulnerable once again will have to decide whether to stay in the rural areas that they live and love, or will they have to move into town as without a bus service, they will become isolated and won't be able to cope without access to the services they need and without seeing family and friends.

Please sign and share this petition to tell Staffordshire County Council to save our local bus services. They are a vital lifeline for people in rural villages like Ipstones and Foxt. IMPORTANT: If you live in Staffordshire or use Staffordshire buses please also complete the Council's consultation. Read info here and complete the form here.

The deadline for the consultation is 17th September 2017 so we need to get as many signatures as we can before then!
