Active Travel Volunteer

Help us to campaign for improved cycling and walking routes in and around Petersfield, including the Rother Valley Way (a wonderful proposal to create a walking and cycling route between Petersfield to Midhurst along the old railway line).

What's involved?

• Work with PeCAN’s active travel lead to map routes, identify improvements, and promote them to local authorities through written consultations and meetings.
• Help us to build evidence through well-designed surveys and prepare business cases for specific improvements.
• Liaise with stakeholder groups, such as the Friends of the Rother Valley Way and Petersfield Town Council’s Town Development Committee.
• Write blogs and articles.

What's the time commitment?

• One day a week, more or less depending on your availability.

Skills

• Prior experience of route planning is not essential, but an interest in promoting cycling/walking is needed, as is a collaborative approach and professional skills.
• Experience of mapping/drawing tools would be useful.
