Joining Modeshift
Membership of Modeshift is available to anyone with an interest in promoting sustainable, safe and active travel.
Local Authorities
Membership is open to all Local Authorities in England, Scotland and Wales. When a Local authority becomes a member of Modeshift they automatically have a voice in the direction of the organisation. This therefore gives the Local Authority voting rights and a say on how the organisation functions and how it is managed. LAs/cities/boroughs from other European and International countries can also join as members.
Profit/not for profit and Universities
Membership is also open to ‘other’ organisations including universities. Profit and not for profit organisations can also apply to become partners of Modeshift. More details can be found in the application forms below. All forms will be assessed and you may be required to provide more information. In some cases Modeshift can refuse applications.
To state your interest in becoming a partner of Modeshift please email the chair of Modeshift at chair@modeshift.org.uk
