Covid-19 has changed the way we live, work and travel. As we adapt to the new normal, we all have a responsibility to consider the steps we can take to stay safe.
Now is the time for your workforce to cycle.
Cycling is an alternative to public transport which supports social distancing. It won’t gridlock our cities and streets. And it reduces the impact of pollution on your local community.
Cyclescheme enables employees to take advantage of the benefits cycling can offer. We have created a one page guide to help you support employees making the decision to travel by bike.
