As part of the Myakka ethos we try and think about the effect we have on the environment and are always working to try and reduce our environmental impact. For this reason we are once again supporting liftshare week which is this year running from the 1st – 5th October 2012. During this week we want to encourage as any people as possible to have a go and share their journeys.

Not only will car sharing help save you money but it also provides you with company during your journey and it can help reduce stress, ease congestion and can lead to lasting friendships. The liftshare.com website is full of testimonials and feedback from current liftsharers so you can hear what the people who do the sharing really think!

If you are interested in finding out more about lift sharing, registering your journey or to look for someone to share with you, simply visit the Liftshare website where you can register your journey and search for people doing the same journey as you. You don’t even need a car to join, there are plenty of drivers out there willing to take passengers for a contribution toward fuel price and some friendly conversation. The Liftshare website is also packed full of information such as a saving calculator which shows you how much your journey costs, how much you could save and your carbon footprint.  Why not give it a go?
