We are giving away a brand new folding e-bike worth £1299 to celebrate our third year of EcoGo!
Simply sign up to EcoGo by 20th October and fill in a short travel survey to be in with a chance to win a DART-3 folding electric bike and start saving money when you travel sustainably.
EcoGo is our sustainable and active travel scheme that rewards you each time you walk, cycle, wheel or take public transport to, from and around campus. With every tracked sustainable and active journey, you can build up BetterPoints that can be redeemed for discounts and vouchers right here on campus and in Brighton.
EcoGo has already helped students and staff in their mission to travel sustainably. In year 2, EcoGo users travelled 282,993 miles by active and sustainable travel. That’s 11.3 times around the world!
So, why not sign up today? All you have to do is download the BetterPoints app, registering an account with your University of Sussex email address and fill out the short travel survey.
You can also sign up for Brighton & Hove City Council’s Move for Change campaign to earn rewards at shops in the city and collect BetterPoints when travelling actively and sustainably around Brighton & Hove.
So, join in, give it an EcoGo and start earning points today!
