I can unerstand that lindsay, but I still think you should get help with transport costs, after all by sending your daughter to a school outside Hyndburn, it is in fact allowing another child to go to a local school. I would suggest that if you were a single parent not going out to work and paying your way and living of benefits, no doubt you would get all the help you required. By working and paying your way the powers that be should be more than willing to give you a hand with bus fares for your child
