North Yarra Community Health Bike Fleet
In late 2007, Bikes@Work helped North Yarra Community Health establish a small pilot bike fleet for their Fitzroy centre. It was a success and they are now planning to expand the fleet with additional bikes for their Collingwood and Carlton sites.
“We'd been talking about setting up a work bike fleet for almost two years, but progress often stalled, partly because of the logistics of researching and purchasing the equipment and partly because of the need to overcome the risk management issues. This was all very time consuming and the issues involved seemed to be quite complicated... Then we found out about bikes@work…
“…Rosy’s visit provided the momentum we needed to develop the policy side of things, but most valuable of all, her extensive research and experience on appropriate bikes and all the equipment that would be needed saved us an immense amount of time and effort. Her quote included a starter package including consultancy support, delivery of bikes, accessories and training for staff – everything we needed to arrange to be able to put in a submission for the next budget, but weren’t really equipped to do ourselves.”
