Save money and carbon emissions with National liftshare day
National liftshare Day (NLSD) is on Tuesday 9 June 2009. The aim of National Liftshare day is to raise the profile of car-sharing and encourage and enable more people to give it a try.
Did you know there are 38 million empty car seats on UK roads every day?
Save money and the environment

Totally agree with this! Car-sharing is brilliant and like the guys in your photo it has saved me hundreds (literally) of pounds as well as cutting my CO2 footprint massively as I share with 3 others that I found on liftshare.com. Really sociable too - we’ve all become great friends and my car-sharers all came to my wedding!
