Member FAQs

So, what’s this 1dayaweek all about then?

1dayaweek is a club and a campaign that incentivises and encourages people who use their car every day to work, school or a site to make small reductions in the amount they drive.

Who the heck is it for?

Businesses, schools, business parks, residential areas, town centres, Anywhere, that people regularly drive to and where car use is creating a negative impact. At the moment we are concentrating on businesses but we will be launching our 1dayaweek School Club soon.

Why are you only encouraging people to reduce by 1dayaweek, not 5daysaweek?

Cars are really helpful, convenient and popular. They’re not going away any time soon. Suddenly stopping using your car completely, when you use it all the time is difficult, and for many, inconceivable. Change is hard for human beings and it needs a few different things to make it happen. The way to create lasting change is to start small and grow from there.

Doesn’t seem like enough to me!

Slowly slowly catchy monkey! People aren’t binary, we don’t like to make big leaps so it’s better do things in small, palatable steps and build enthusiasm. During the school holidays it feels like half the traffic has vanished but it has only dropped by around 8%-10%. We don’t need big reductions to start feeling big benefits.
