Active Travel Champions

Active Travel Champions are key to establishing and maintaining a culture of active travel (walking and cycling) in the workplace, as well as making the workplace more supportive of active travel.

We are here to support Champions with time, expertise, events, equipment, and grants, all you need is energy and enthusiasm. Being a Champion easy, enjoyable and rewarding and can take as much or as little time as you want.

Each Active Travel Champion receives an emergency cycle repair kit for their organisation.

Here are some of the things Active Travel Champions currently do:

Talk to your colleagues about cycling or walking, sign post them to our individual support services.
Share your knowledge of the city to help co-workers find a safe route to work – or signpost to the Travelwest journey planner.
Organise a roadshow, or Dr Bike session
Help fix punctures and coordinate an Emergency Cycle Repair Kit (provided by us)
Promote our travel challenges and get your work place more active.
Arrange the loan of an electric pool bike for business travel
Set up a bicycle / walking group to address issues at your workplace
Set up a workplace team on Love to Ride
Sign up to our monthly newsletter and share relevant information with your colleagues.
