Petition Fund free train travel for 11-17 year olds

We want the Government to make train travel free for 11 to 17 year olds, as some families are struggling to pay for their child's travel fare to get to school etc due to the cost of living, or losing their jobs.

More details

I want the Government to do this is because this should help lots of kids not have to worry about how they will get to school without paying for train fares. I believe the Government will try their best to do everything for the children in the UK. I feel like this should be put in place so parents don’t have to worry about how their children will get to the school.
