Senior Railcard 

The Senior Railcard costs £35 and entitles holders to a third off the cost of most rail journeys (alongside other discounts). A 20% discount is available under the National Concessionary Travel Scheme, reducing the cost to £28 for Parish Council residents who have reached their state pension age. Contact the Parish Office on 01444 484115 or clerks@lindfieldparishcouncil.gov.uk for a discount code.

New applicants will need to provide proof of age and address. Applications thereafter are made directly to the Association of Train Operating Companies either on-line or by telephone 0345 3000 250 using the discount code provided and you will then be sent the rail card directly in the post.

Disabled Persons Railcard

Costing £20, this also entitles the user to a third off the cost of most rail journeys and the procedure is the same detailed above, reducing the cost to £18 under the National Concessionary Travel Scheme.

Eligible applicants are entitled to both a free bus pass (for journeys between 9.30am-11.00pm Monday to Fridays and anytime at weekends) and a Senior Railcard. Free Bus Pass application details can be found at Free older person's bus pass - West Sussex County Council or call into the Parish Office for assistance. Alternatively, the Senior Railcard is available free of charge to those eligible for the bus concession who are willing to give the latter up. The free Senior Rail Cards can be obtained by phoning West Sussex Bus Pass on 033 022 26222.

Taxi vouchers are available instead of a bus pass to assist people who cannot physically use other forms of public transport. Please contact Mid Sussex District Council on telephone 01444 477450 or email: taxivouchers@midsussex.gov.uk
