FIRST Bus are offering the past and present of the UK's Armed Forces free travel over remembrance commemorations.

Passengers either wearing military uniform or carrying their service ID card on Remembrance Sunday (November 10) or Armistice Day (Monday, November 11) will be able to use all bus services, with the exception of the Airport Flyer, for free.

Rob Pymm, commercial director for First West of England and Cymru, said: "Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday are important and solemn reminders of the sacrifices made by so many in our armed forces, and we want to do something to mark the occasions.

"We want to make bus travel to and from remembrance events as easy as possible for people who are attending."
