How is your social connection faring with Queensland’s cheap public transport?

“I know of a World War II veteran who caught the bus every morning from his Greenslopes home to the local mall. He passed away about five years ago in his 90s. He was unable to drive and was on a pension, so the Council bus was the only affordable transport for him. He used to initiate conversation with other passengers — some of these folk became friends with him, remembering him on Anzac Day, on his birthday and at Christmas,” says Sarah Marris from Anglicare Southern Queensland’s Mission, Research and Advocacy team
