A positive effects of the Covid crisis has been increasing awareness in the environment and traffic reduction. This has also lead to an increase in cycles and cycle lanes .. Cargo EBikes offer a positive solution for small businesses which have to deliver or want to deliver as part of their offer, cargo Ebikes are efficient, environmentally positive and cost/time effective. The challenge for these companies is the initial expense of purchasing a cargo Ebike and whether it will be effective.. Our solution of whether they should make the initial investment is to lease or hire a cargo Ebike to businesses, they then can effectively assess and monitor the positive aspects of using Ebikes, i.e.low running costs, clean transport, speed of delivery, company 's image ,compared to conventional fossil fuel vehicles. We also want to work with local Credit Unions to set up a low cost loan scheme for purchase of cargo Ebikes for businesses.

What we'll deliver:

• Provide two cargo Ebikes for hire and lease to businesses

Why it's a great idea:

The project will be based in economically disadvantaged community building on a well established community recycling project. Offer people from the community to become involved as volunteers. Offer businesses a chance to become more environmentally conscious and friendly. Offer businesses a chance to cut their costs and expand their trading. Less traffic on the road and less emissions.

Steps to get it done:

• Buying five Cargo Bike
• Engaging new volunteer
• Marketing the Project
• Working with local Credit Union to set up specific Ebike Loan Scheme
