6 STAFF USER FEEDBACK As a regular bike user I think it s a great way to get to visits and an alternative to bringing the car to work. The cars are efficient and easy to drive. It allows me to cycle in to work which means I beat the traffic, keeps me fit and avoids having to bring the car and find somewhere to park it. It saves me also having to complete monthly travel expenses forms. Jacqui Dartnell, Social Worker, North Bristol Community Mental Health Team I think the real bonus with this scheme, is the flexibility in which you can arrange and book transport at any time, night or day and if there are any hiccups, there is a human at the end of the phone in which you can get things sorted. My mileage claims for personal transport are now reduced from some 350 miles per month, to about 50 or so and it feels great to be a part of a community trying to keep its carbon footprint to a minimum.
