Taunton Transition Town are supporting a local car club Co-Cars from Exeter to run a car-sharing project in Taunton. If you are an infrequent car user a car club maybe for you; saving you money and with less hassle - no more car tax, no more car repairs just a quick and easy way to use a car. Sign up today and show your interest at http://www.co-cars.co.uk/. Taunton Deane Borough Council have already signed up so we will get at least one car in the near future stationed outside the council offices with more to come.
We are still continuing to spread the word about Transition in the community and school workshops.
