Walking
- the next step in green commuting

We provide information about the health benefits of walking directly to your staff. We can also organise events, such as a Walk to Work Day, which can be tailored to your company’s needs.

If you are interested in improving the walking facilities in your local area, we can organise an audit to see which improvements are needed and liaise with other local businesses and the local authority to achieve results.

Car Sharing
- share costs, form friendships

Car sharing is a great way to cut down on carbon emissions - but the difficult bit is finding someone to share your trip to work.

We provide a matching service for car sharers in your company, based on postcode plotting. We also give information about London-wide and national car sharing systems and car clubs.

Public transport

The TRavel Information Packs contain a personal journey plan from TfL’s Journey Planner. Ticket information is also included in the TRIP. CEN can work with you to increase the amount of public transport information (routes, timetables and costs) available to your staff.
