The Cycle to Work Guarantee
Feedback...
Whats The Catch?!
Our scheme has now been in place for June, and in that short time we now have 200 employees participating. As a police force, we are striving to reduce bureaucracy, so we were keen to take advantage of Cyclescheme's supplementary services to simplify the process for employees and minimise the administration for us. This has worked well thanks to the personal support from Cyclescheme staff and the quality of their website. Most importantly, in keeping with the sustainable development agenda, Cyclescheme use a network of independent bike shops, so our participation in this scheme helps support local businesses. The most common question I have been asked by our employees is "what's the catch?", and it has become clear to us that there isn't one; everyone benefits.
