Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 29 Oct, 06:12 · Archive

Stagecoach is offering free bus travel across Wiltshire on Remembrance Sunday and Remembrance Day to support members of the Armed Forces community attending commemorative events. The offer is available to serving military personnel, veterans and cadets.

Eligible passengers can access free travel by showing military ID, wearing uniform, displaying medals, or presenting a Veterans Badge.

Martin Gibbon, managing director for Stagecoach West, said: 'Remembrance is an important opportunity for communities across Wiltshire to come together, reflect and pay tribute to all those who have served, and those whose lives have been affected by conflict.' He added: 'It's a small gesture of our appreciation for the sacrifices made by our Armed Forces community, and our way of helping people come together to remember and pay their respects.'

Stagecoach has been a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant since March 2015. The company also holds Gold status under the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme, which recognises its commitment to supporting the Armed Forces community.
