Catch the Bus Month

Welcome to this month’s parking update

September is Catch the Bus Month a national campaign celebrating the benefits of bus travel It’s a great time to think about sustainable travel options and how we can all help reduce congestion and emissions.

Using alternatives such as the Park and Ride are really important to ensure that our shift working colleagues and our patients can park safely on site

How can you get involved

There are a number of ways to get involved in Catch the Bus Month.

Team travel challenge - encourage your teams to take the bus for the month of September and send your photos of your team on the bus for Chatterbox

If you haven’t tried the Park & Ride at either site yet - challenge yourself to use the service in September You will be surprised at how easy it is, and think of the money you could save

Tell us your bus stories, send us your compliments for your drivers and give us your feedback Every query or comment helps us to build a service that works for everyone

The Park & Ride song

Our patients and visitors have been getting on board the Park & Ride at RSH since January this year and the feedback has been great

You can hear the song here

We can see this is making a real difference to their patient experience and that is having a knock on effect to those patients that need a space on-site

Our comms team will be out and about on the bus in the next couple of weeks taking photos and videos of service users so please say hi if you see us.

Meet the Team awareness stands

In September we will be holding awareness stands with Louise Kiely so that you can give your feedback and ask all your parking related questions
