Cycling to work
At Care Plus Group we know that we will need much more cycling if we are to combat climate change. Road transport not only produces vast amounts of emissions contributing to global warming it also has a detrimental impact on our local air quality.
–
All CPG staff have access to purchase bikes through our cycle to work programme a “salary sacrifice” scheme that makes the buying of a bike and accessories more affordable.
–
Through both our CPG Environment and Health and Wellbeing Groups we encourage staff to participate in local cycling initiatives including Love to Ride where our riders compete with other local teams for prizes.

Working with North East Lincolnshire Council through their “Lockit Scheme” Care Plus Group has recently installed additional heavy duty, secure locking points at Open Door, Fairways, Cambridge Park and Cromwell Road ensuring that all of our centres now have a safe place to park your bike. Our Fairways bike locking points are getting plenty of use below.
This is all part of our Green CPG plan
