As a membership organisation Carplus relies on contributions from its stakeholders to fund the resources and guidance it provides.
Without the contributions of our members and key funding partners, we would be unable to provide support or advice on developing car clubs or generate advocacy for ongoing car club activities.
Carplus membership is open to anyone working within sustainable transport, seeking to do so, or with an interest in the work of Carplus more generally.
The size, type and status, of an organisation determines the category and level of membership, please view the table of Membership Categories for more information. We also offer non-voting membership for individuals and groups who wish to support our work but do not want to be actively involved in member decisions or identified on our website.
