If your over 65 you can get a senior persons bus pass which means that you can get the bus for free after half nine Monday through to friday and then anytime saturday and sunday

In England you can get a bus pass for free travel when you reach the female State Pension age, whether you’re a man or a woman.
If you live in London, you can travel free on buses, tubes and other transport when you’re 60, but only within London.
In Wales you can get a bus pass when you reach 60.
If you are over 60 or have a disability, you could be eligible for free bus travel to get around Scotland and your local area.
