TACT is hoping to be part of a group setting up a pay-as-you-drive car club, and is looking for people willing to share their car to save money.
If you lease your car to the Car Club, you get:
- Free tax, insurance, repairs and maintenance
- 40 hours free useage per month, carried over if not used
- Car parked less than 1km away - possibly at your own home
- You will be paid 25% of any hourly usage revenue generated in excess of £2000
A Car Club works by people joining and paying a membership fee and then using Club cars on an hourly basis. The cars can be booked by phone or on the internet. Car Clubs are popular as they save you money and reduce pressure on parking space.
Kendal and Staveley are also looking at setting up similar schemes. Cars will be fitted with equipment to link in with a computerised booking system. The Windermere Car Club needs people who are willing to lease a car to our system - could that be you?
If you are interested in the idea, please dowload and complete the Car Club form, and drop this off at Windermere Library, or South Lakes Development Trust office, Langstone House, Broad Street, LA23 2AB (next to the Council Chamber).
