After Hour Car closed its doors after twenty years of enabling car sharing in the community, a group of ex-members put their heads together to set up a new scheme: POD Calder Valley Shared Transport.
-
Our aims are to cut down on car ownership, carbon emissions and over crowded parking. And to make access to cars possible without the astronomical costs of purchasing and maintaining a car.

We are currently waiting to find out the outcome of a large funding bid, and if you'd like to keep up to speed with all developments, sign up to the newsletter below!
Testimonials
I work from home most of the time so don't need to travel by car very often. But when I do, to see family, for days out or for trips to the garden centre or IKEA - being in a Car Club has been a massive help. It's great to know it's reducing the number of cars on the road as well.
I joined Hour Car when I first moved to Todmorden as the cost of living crisis was hitting and i couldn't justify paying to run a car by myself. Joining Pod allowed me to keep doing things I needed whil saving myself more than £1000 a year.
Like many people, I was only using my car two or three times a week. So it feels really good to have been able to get rid of my car and just book one when I need it. I'm saving a shed load of money at the same time as doing my bit for the environment.
