Cycle to work scheme
The Cycle to Work scheme is all about getting fit, having better transport options and saving money. Cyclescheme are the company who run the scheme for council employees. To take part all you need to do is choose a bike and safety equipment from a specific bike supplier in the county. The council buy the bike and equipment and you enter into a hire agreement, paying them 12 monthly instalments, which are tax and NI free.
Through the cycle to work scheme you can:
- make possible savings of up to 30% off the cost of a new bike and safety equipment (this will be dependant on your rate of tax and NI)
- spread the cost of your bike package over 12 monthly payments and save on income tax and national insurance
- choose any make and model of bike you want from local independent bike shops that are part of the scheme
- get more active and healthy whilst saving money and reducing your carbon footprint
The Cyclescheme website has a calculator that will give you a rough idea of what your monthly payments and anticipated savings will be, just visit: Cycle Scheme Employee calculator
