About Commonwheels
Commonwheels is a Community Interest Company. It aims to establish an accessible and affordable integrated network of car clubs across the UK through a combination of direct operations and through supporting individuals, community groups and other organisations to set up schemes in their locality. All the affiliated clubs will be able to use Commonwheels’ resources and will be integrated into a national network.
Commonwheels holds three core values
- Environmental Sustainability
Car clubs are a proven means of reducing transport-related carbon emissions and other pollutants. Commonwheels will endeavour to restrict its own carbon footprint whilst promoting schemes which will enable individuals and organisations to reduce their own carbon emissions.
- The Value of Community
Commonwheels is a Community Interest Company and will not only work for the benefit of communities with which it engages but will also work, wherever possible, with the communities and groups in any locality.
- Social Justice
Increased access to work and leisure opportunities for those who suffer from transport poverty is a key benefit of a car club. Commonwheels will seek to deploy cars in all areas, not just those which are lucrative for the company. Commonwheels will act openly, honestly and fairly with all stakeholders.
If you would like a car club in your community, you own a car, or a fleet of pool cars, and would like to learn how it can benefit your community, employees and bank account contact Commonwheels here.
