More info
The Lovemybus Youth Programme (LMBYP) is an educational initiative delivered by Transform Scotland, aimed at inspiring young people to choose bus travel for health, environmental, and social benefits.
Through interactive, curriculum-linked workshops in schools and youth groups, we promote sustainable transport, build travel confidence, and address issues such as anti-social behaviour on buses.
Between 2022–2023, the programme reached over 10,000 young people across 22 local authorities through engaging, hands-on sessions. In autumn 2025, we are relaunching in the Tayside and Central region, with the potential to expand across Scotland.
