Travel update in Nottingham 12 March - 19 March
 A helping hand to all our key workers
As restrictions slowly ease over the coming months, the best and most important thing we can do to support our key workers is to stay at home as much as possible and follow Government guidelines. If you need to travel walk or cycle as much as possible, and if you must use public transport remember your face covering at all times and try to remain socially distanced from others.
E-scooters are a great way to maintain social distancing while travelling - in partnership with Wind Mobility we're offering a helping hand to NHS and front line social care workers by offering free £25 e-scooter vouchers to aid socially distanced travel.

#RideItOut with Love to Ride
We're feeling relaxed and stress free after this week's #RideRelaxed with Love to Ride - Cycling is one of the best ways to reduce cortisol, increase serotonin and boost your mood.
Next week we'll be riding green and swapping pollution for pedals for as many journeys as possible. Cycling is one of the greenest ways to travel, especially for local journeys under 5 miles.
Register over at lovetoride.net to start tracking your miles as you ride it out!
