Travel and Transport
To be as inclusive as possible, a subsidy is available to Rebels who may find it difficult to meet the costs of travel, such as those with accessibility needs or who are on a low income.
If you provide receipts for the cost of your coach or public transport tickets, we may be able to reimburse you.
You can claim back the cost of your coach / public transport tickets - apply here
If you have to travel by car, we may be able to reimburse your mileage (45p per mile), parking fees, and congestion charges. - apply here
Is your group looking for support in paying for a coach? We may be able to offer your group a loan to support the cost of hiring a coach.
