As part of Green Travel Month we are pleased to announce that Alex Elliott from the Co-Wheels Car Club scheme will be joining us for an informal drop-in session on Friday 19th February, 12-2pm at the Innovation Centre, St Cross Business Park, Newport, PO30 5WB.
The Co-Wheels IW Car Club is an exciting new project for the Island and will be of great use to employers and employees alike, allowing people to book a low emissions car on an hourly or daily basis. There will be cars based at dedicated places across the Island.
The drop-in session will allow people to pop in and meet Alex and find out more about the scheme.
About Co-wheels
Co-wheels is the only independently owned national car club, providing low emission, hybrid and electric cars on a pay-as-you-go basis for organisations and communities across the UK.
Trading as a social enterprise means a commitment to improve society and environment. Our primary focus is to help our members to save money, reduce car ownership and create a cleaner environment by making lower impact transport options available to everyone. Because Co-wheels is a Community Interest Company, we reinvest profit into our operations to expand and improve the service.
Co-wheels now delivers car clubs in over 50 locations across the UK. We have a diverse range of operations, from city centres to villages. Some of our car clubs are used by local authorities and universities as pool cars for staff, whilst others focus entirely on being shared cars for local residents. We encourage local ownership of our operations which are sometimes run as community car clubs or as one of our social franchises.
