Discounts and incentives*

To help you get stuck in with Going Car Free 2022 we are giving everyone who signs up to the challenge a range of discounts from various transport providers. We hope these discounts enable (and encourage) you to try out transport modes that you may never have considered using. Feel free to try them all whether it's for a regular journey that you’d usually drive, or if you just fancy a ride.

Please note that unless stated otherwise all the discounts and incentives listed below are solely for the use of Going Car Free challenge participants. They are not to be shared publicly.

*This page will be continuously updated with more discounts and incentives as and when they are confirmed. We’ll post in the Going Car Free online community each time a new discount comes through.
