What are the tasks of a TfL Travel for Life champion?
Once you have registered and set your targets you will need to pull together a team to help you plan and deliver the activities. You then of course need to deliver the activities and promote the new programme to parents. We encourage regular celebrations to help keep momentum and engagement.
It isn’t a simple role and you should have capacity to allocate 3 hours a week to the programme. It is a fun and inspiring role and you can see the impact of your efforts at every turn.
Suitable for all schools and nurseries.
