The Freedom Pass gives older residents free travel on almost all public transport in London including National Rail, within the Freedom Pass boundary. All older pass holders can also travel for free on local bus services anywhere in England between 9:30am and 11pm.

You can apply for the Older Persons' Freedom Pass if you meet the age criteria and your sole or principal residence is in Barking and Dagenham. The Freedom Pass scheme is administered by London Councils, although the pass is paid for by Barking and Dagenham council.
