The ‘Zoom Beyond Travel Pass’ is something that we at the South Yorkshire Youth Combined Authority introduced just after covid. It has significantly helped young people across the region to use public transport, making us one of the cheapest in the country for ages up to 21.

We’re proud to have @official_ryca on the Commission. Youth voice and empowerment is a crucial pillar for RYCA, and giving young people in #Yorkshire & #Humber a seat at the table to affect regional change is important to us. Thank you to Will and Edie for talking to us today!

“We helped bring in an 80p discount fare for buses in South Yorkshire and young people were quick to jump onto public transport. It’s improving people’s lives as well as reducing emissions.” - @JudeDanielSmith, a climate education academic and member of @official_ryca at #YSW23

How can we make #ProtectedLandscapes, e.g. National Parks, accessible to young people? This month, the #YouthPolicyDevelopmentGroup are working with @DefraGovUK to examine how young people use Protected Landscapes. But first, they need YOUR input! 👉 https://t.co/ESPD13P38H
