April News from the "Move It" Initiative!
Driving Sustainable Change in Manor Royal
The Manor Royal BID’s “Move It” initiative is steadily advancing its mission for an eco-friendly future, making great strides in encouraging sustainable travel throughout our community.
Launched in September 2024 as part of the BID’s “Sustain & Renew” objective, Move It is a collaborative effort with some of the key partners from the Crawley Growth Program, including West Sussex County Council, Crawley Borough Council, Metro Bus, and EasitCRAWLEY. Together, we’re striving to make Manor Royal a leader in sustainability.
What’s Happened this month?
This month, the Move It team kept the energy high with not one, but two dynamic roadshows!
First stop: Medical Imaging, Manor Royal’s newest member, where fresh ideas met fresh faces.
Second stop: Virgin, a longstanding pillar of the community, where experience and enthusiasm collide in the best way possible!

Beyond the facts and figures, these events connected businesses sparked discussions and empowered employees to make a difference.
April's Roadshow turned up the energy, giving employees a hands-on experience with eco-friendly travel options while unlocking exclusive discounts through EasitCRAWLEY! Whether it’s saving on train fares, bus passes, or even cycling gear, these offers make sustainable commuting easier and more affordable for everyone.
