The wellbeing, health and safety of all our staff, volunteers and customers is a priority for Forth Environment Link. Due to COVID-19, we have closed all our offices including our active travel hubs.
While are offices and hubs are closed you can still get in touch with the team via social media or by email: info@forthenvironmentlink.org
Free ebikes for NHS key workers
During the Covid-19 crisis we have two lockdown initiatives giving keyworkers free access to electric bikes.
We have offered NHS key workers exclusive use of our free ebike library allowing them to get to and from work without using public transport and thanks to funding from Cycling Scotland, we have offered keyworkers free annual memberships for our public electric bike hire scheme, Forth Bike.
Forth Valley’s two bike share schemes, nextbike and Forth Bike, are still operating. When hiring a bike we would recommend wiping down the main contact points, such as handlebar grips, saddle, gear and brake levers, with sanitising wipes. Please also wash or sanitise your hands before and after use.
