Park & Stride - Keep Cars Away from School Gates

Park and Stride schemes are a quick and easy way to reduce car congestion by the school gates.... and get the kids walking at least SOME of the way to and from school.
Parents who have to drive (for whatever reasons) are asked to park well away from the school and walk the last bit. It may be on a quiet side street, in a pub/supermarket car park, with the agreement of the owner. It's all common sense I know... but something that probably won't happen unless you suggest it and promote it to parents.

To help you we developed our Park & Stride packs (reflectors, stickers, self-cling car window stickers and information sheet). We've just updated them so the car window sticker has a special writable panel. The car window stickers can be used solely to promote the scheme or can have an issue number/car registration written on and be used as a special 'Park & Stride' pass.
