Modeshift Travel Ambassadors
With support from a Modeshift coordinator and school staff, secondary pupils help lead positive change in how their school travels. They explore travel issues, develop campaigns around active travel and road safety, and help set up practical solutions such as park and stride, walking buses, or car sharing. Schools are supported to engage pupils, work towards Modeshift STARS Accreditation, and address local travel challenges. For more information visit the website linked below
Living Streets WOW Walk to School Challenge
A fun, daily challenge where children record how they get to school using the interactive WOW Travel Tracker. If they travel sustainably (walk/wheel, cycle or scoot) once a week for a month, they get rewarded with a badge. Thanks to funding from Active Travel England, all primary schools in York can take part in WOW completely free.
