Anyone in our community (aged 25 years or over) is very welcome to join the Talybont community car share scheme. It costs £25 per year and we need a copy of your Driver’s Licence and for you to sign an insurance form. We will then give you a demo of how to book the cars online, access the keys and how to drive and charge the electric van. It’s as easy as that. Because one vehicle is electric and the other runs on recycled vegetable oil, you can do your journeys on effectively zero carbon. Heulwen-the-van is particularly useful if you need to move large loads around.
