[su_spoiler title=”Make a change” style=”fancy”]Start practicing more sustainable travel today! Use one of your regular journeys under 5km, and try to walk or cycle it instead of driving or using public transport. You’ll likely be pleasantly surprised at what a difference it makes in terms of fitness, and time gained. Perhaps it doesn’t take as long as you thought, or it could even take less time than driving, but the benefits to you and your community are priceless. You can find further information about your local walking and cycling amenities over on our Aspext Walking and Cycling pages. [/su_spoiler]
