Share Cymru allows you to list journeys that you are planning to make, whether regular or one-off, whether driving, looking for a lift or happy to do either. If you find a match, sharing the journey will save money and reduce your carbon footprint.
You can also add journeys you take on foot or on two wheels. This could be to find someone to share with, or just to record the mileage and carbon you’re saving by not driving.
