National liftshare Day

Well done and thank you to everyone who took part in National liftshare Day 2008!
The success of NLSD has grown consistently, year on year, since it was started in 2004. But 2008 exceeded all our expectations: not only did more people than ever hold events around UK, but liftshare.com had its biggest day ever with almost 1,500 people registering on 9th June. Throughout June, a total of 15,900 new members signed up to find a CarBUDi - significantly increasing everyone's chances of finding a good match.
Congratulations to CarshareDevon.com who won the public prize for the National liftshare Day Challenge. They encouraged more people to join by entering all those who signed up between 7th -14th June into a registration draw to win £100. Existing members were also urged to spread the word to friends and family members using the 'tell a friend' facility, for the chance to win tickets to the Beautiful Days festival.
The winner of the private group prize was the BSkyB office in Dunfermline who had a terrific response to the free car valeting which was up for grabs to all BUDi team members who car-shared on 9th June. Not only was congestion reduced but all the cars around the site were sparkly clean!
We would also like to make special mention of SESTran Tripshare, who managed to get a motion in favour of car-sharing tabled in the Scottish Parliament.
First Direct also had a fantastic launch, with more than 179 people signing up over the first ten days of June: further evidence that tying your launch into NLSD gets you off to a great start!
If you were one of the new NLSD 2008 members, welcome to the liftshare network; If you haven't already, we hope you find a match very soon and enjoy your car-share experience.
To all members - thank you for your continued support and we hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of car-sharing for another year. Don't forget to recommend your friends / family and colleagues to try it too!
