Employer Description:

If our streets were safer, if our air was cleaner. If we connected with our communities. If we reconnected with the world around us.

If every person in every community could connect with the things that matter to them safely, healthily and joyfully.

If our everyday actions added up to something much, much bigger. Imagine if one small change could do all that.

We’ve been making that change happen since 1977.

Making it possible for every one of us to roll, ride, amble, gambol, stroll, stride, trek and tread.

And today, we’re gearing up to do more than ever.

Uniting under a new name for Sustrans and a renewed mission to deliver more joy per journey, more peace per pedal, more smiles per mile.

To work with communities to effect change on the ground and evidence the impact to influence policies that push those changes further. It’s grassroots action with added oomph.

We call it people-powered movement.
