🎉 Celebrating 20 Years of LIFT! 🎉 This year marks the 20th anniversary of Hull CityCare, a pioneering LIFT (Local Improvement Finance Trust) company established in 2004. LIFT was created to modernise the aging NHS primary healthcare estate, ensuring services are delivered within communities and are fit for the future, putting patient care first. By combining the strengths of both public and private sectors, we’ve been able to deliver modern, fit-for-purpose facilities. With a 40% public and 60% private sector ownership, private investment supports the development of these vital public assets, ensuring they are maintained in day one condition. Our very own Tim Wigglesworth, Chief Executive of Hull Citycare, highlights the transformation: “Several years ago, many GPs were based in old, outdated buildings that were rundown and not fit for purpose. Now, Hull’s health centres are housed in purpose-built, sustainable, and modern LIFT buildings, offering great surroundings for patients and staff.” LIFT companies serve areas with higher than average health inequalities, making their investment even more valuable. The LIFT portfolio in England contains around £2.5bn of investment from just £100m of public capital, bringing economic benefits directly to communities through employment and job creation.

Fab case study encapsulating Mobilityways measurement philosophy that is helping organisations not only better understand actual commuting patterns but also the potential to advance sustainable travel and with this data and insight devise robust reduction plans. Do get in touch to find out more 🙏 #Scope3
A 28% decrease in commuter emissions in one year! Our partnership with Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust has proven to be a winner for the planet and the employees at Salford Royal Hospital. 🏥 This has resulted in 2,060 tonnes of CO2e being taken out of the atmosphere – the equivalent weight of 20 blue whales! 🐋 It also means Salford Royal Hospital is already halfway towards meeting its 2033 carbon reduction target – just one year from starting work with Mobilityways. 📉 Barry Waterhouse, Group Travel & Access Manager, was happy to share the success story. He told us: “Mobilityways is our strategic partner for commuting data solutions and consultancy, empowering us to reach the statutory requirement for NHS England to decarbonise by 2045. 📊 “We’ve seen improvements in our public transport usage, our bike usage, our walking and tram usage, and we’ve also seen a noticeable reduction in our individual car use and individual car journeys. It really has been a fantastic performance.” 🚃 You can find out more and watch the whole interview with Barry here: https://lnkd.in/gMazN4wQ #Sustainability #Commuting #SustainableCommuting #CaseStudy
