We will be sharing more case studies that capture some innovative ideas and represent a wide range of initiatives to support the growth of active and sustainable travel.  

Modeshift recently brought Andrew Bucknall (Travel Plan Coordinator) of Samworth Brothers together with Sarah Mcalinden (Travel 2 Next Coordinator) in order that they could share best practice and to allow Andrew to see how an organisation who has been with Modeshift for several years has been able to develop the initiatives and promote active and sustainable travel to its employees successfully.  We would welcome further opportunities to bring organisation together and share ideas and best practice!

The Modeshift STARS Residential Focus group have recently shared the results of a recent survey from across 14 local authority areas that has been pivotal to understand more about the mechanisms being used to secure Residential Travel Plans across the UK and to assist with the sharing of best practice across this sector.

Keep up the great work everyone,  we look forward to reporting the Summer accreditation headlines very soon!
