Matt Bembridge Email & Phone Number

Hello and thank-you for taking the time to read my profile!I am engaged with Sustrans and its projects because I feel I am making a difference in people's health and well being, with the added benefit of reducing costs for the businesses they work for. I enjoy what I do and I support my clients by doing the following:► Providing free support to businesses short on time, in adopting sustainable commuting and travel practices and policies.► Facilitating training for business drivers and company fleets to reduce fuel consumption.► Reducing the need for travel by helping businesses to adopt video conferencing, remote and mobile working technology.I am an advocate of the LinkedIn Community because I need to reach as many interested businesses owners/decision makers as possible with the limited time I have. I am always happy to build long-term win-win relationships with like-minded people.When I'm not working I am a busy father, I volunteer at my church and in any spare time I enjoy going to the gym. I also like to write creatively when the urge takes hold.

Listed skills include Project Management, Research, Sustainability, Project Planning, and 9 others.

  Sustrans has been working with companies and organisations to promote sustainable and active travel for over ten years. “The initiatives led by Sustrans have made our staff really think about how they travel - not just to and from work but during the day at work too. From our partnership at Cobalt we’ve been able to expand active travel right across the trust area, including at three hospital sites.”- Sathish Sethuraman, Travel Plan Coordinator, Northumbria Healthcare TrustIn that time, we have worked with a wide range of workplaces throughout the UK, including large corporate offices, SMEs, high street shops, factories, hospitals and universities. We support organisations looking at both business travel and the commute.Sustrans employee engagement projects consistently achieve impressive and measurable results. For example, the typical benefits of our projects deliver estimated savings to organisations of a minimum of £7,500 a year for every 100 employees engaged.For every 100 employees we engage in our full package of activities, we achieve per year:- a reduction of 24 sick days- improved well being in 61 employees- increased productivity- 6% reduction in commuting by car- a reduction of up to 38 tonnes of CO2
