Persuade Gwynedd Council to scrap plans to raise the cost of the over 16 travel pass from £60 to £100 for all students across Gwynedd.
I berswadio Cyngor Gwynedd i gael gwared ar eu cynlliniau i godi cost y tocyn teithio myfyrwyr dros 16 o £60 i £100 ar gyfer holl myfyrwyr ar draws Gwynedd.

Reaching this level of support has been a long and exhausting process but seeing so many people fighting alongside me for affordable transport makes the struggle feel worthwhile. I am tired but I am not stopping because our students deserve better than these price hikes.

My twins are not yet college age, however when they are I will have to pay twice for their bus passes just so they can continue their education. There are no school sixth forms here so to further their education they must attend college. We should be encouraging our young people to further their education, not charging ridiculous amounts that most people struggle to afford.
Lladron. Syt ar y ddeaear mae'n ddeg i myfurwyr (sydd ddim yn gweithio'n llawn amser) talu £300 y flwyddyn i teithio i cael addysg? Teithio ar gwsanaethau sydd ddim dibynadwy o chwbl. Meddylia os ma riant gyda 2 plentyn mewn addysg? £600 y flwyddyn. Stopiwch meddwl am eich poced gefn am unwaith ag meddyliwch am y cyfleuodd mar colegau yn cynnig - mae cynyddu y pris am cael gwarad or cyfleuodd yma i lawer o teuluoedd.
I think it is a not fair on students family £100 a term is a tax on education ....The price of derv has gone down in the past year so why put it up NOW.???....
This will by far reduce the amount of students going to college, we need to encourage. Come on Gwynedd council try back our children, they are the future.......
They need to be encouraged with education not put off, what about subsidising this by charging bus pass holders half fare instead of free travel
we have to pay £100 per month in train fare just to get our children to secondary school :(
This is way to high I don't know many families that can afford this amount.

My brother starts college in September 2015 and I don't think it's fair for my dad or him to pay £100 a term to go to college. My sister didn't have to pay when she was in college and I'm having to pay £60 already. It's not fair. Also the college might have to close down if people won't go to do their studies at CMD Dolgellau because of the costs to go there per term
