Supporting NHS Staff with Sustainable Commuting in Portsmouth

In light of pressure on limited (and expensive) parking spaces for staff, Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust joined the MyJourney Car Share Scheme.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Overview

Like many NHS Trusts, Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust is facing pressure on limited (and expensive) parking spaces for staff.  This, coupled with patchy public transportation for staff traveling during ‘anti-social’ hours, means they were looking for more convenient, shared transport solutions for staff.

Solution

As part of the My Journey Car Share project in Hampshire, Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust has signed up to use the Liftango car share platform.  Liftango’s carpool platform dynamically matches drivers and riders in a trusted and exclusive network to encourage climate positive commuting among staff at Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust. This is reducing the pressure on car parking and sharing the expense for staff. In addition the trust is now able to easily measure and report on scope 3 emissions.

'We’re thrilled to be working with Liftango and to join the MyJourney car sharing scheme. This partnership fits our strategic vision of ‘working together to deliver excellence in care for our patients and communities’. By promoting car share we will be supporting staff in taking steps that will help them save money, reduce our carbon footprint and improve employee wellbeing.”
