The WELL Team are celebrating Bike to Work Week by encouraging everyone to join the Cycle to Work Scheme!
The Cycle to Work Scheme enables staff to hire a bicycle for use in the journey to and from work. The employing Department purchases the bicycle and hires it to the member of staff over twelve months through a salary sacrifice arrangement. The member of staff makes savings on the tax and national insurance element of their hire payments.

- Take delight in being quids in! Save money on travel costs.
