Are you ready to see your community from a fresh perspective? Challenge yourself to step outside your comfort zone and embrace a week without driving by joining the Week Without Driving Challenge from 30 September to 6 October 2024. This unique challenge allows you to explore new modes of transportation, connect with your community, and contribute towards greater social inclusion and empathy.
The Week Without Driving Challenge is a voluntary, self-managed initiative encouraging individuals to experience life without relying on their personal vehicles. Participants can choose between:
4. Share Your Journey: Throughout the week, share your experiences, photos, and insights on social media. Use #WWDau24 and tag @WWDau24 on Facebook and LinkedIn.
5. Complete the Survey: At the end of the week, you’ll receive a survey via email to provide feedback on your experience. Your insights will help us understand the impact of the Challenge and improve future initiatives.
Encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to participate. Scavenger Hunts can be more fun as a group, or why not form your own mini-challenge among friends and family? Who will capture the most items? The more people involved, the more significant the impact on our community! Share our website – GetAroundCaboCarFree.com.au – to let others know about the benefits of joining the Week Without Driving Challenge.
Is this a financial commitment? No, the challenge is entirely free to join. It’s all about the experience and insights you gain, not monetary donations.
What if I need to drive for an emergency? Safety is our top priority. If you need to drive for an emergency, that’s completely understandable. The challenge is flexible and aims to encourage reflection and exploration rather than impose strict rules.
How will I receive the survey? You will receive an email with a link to the survey by the end of the challenge week. Make sure to provide a valid email address when signing up!
Do I have to post on social media? While we encourage sharing your journey to inspire others, it’s not compulsory. You can participate in the way that feels right for you.
Can I start planning my routes now? Absolutely! Feel free to start planning how you’ll get around without driving. Exploring your options ahead of time will make the week smoother and more enjoyable.
How is the Participants Award Selected?
Two Participants Awards will be randomly selected. The first will be drawn from a list of all who have registered for the challenge. The second, from those who completed and returned the survey on time. Recipients will be advised via email if they have won a Participants Award. Please note, the Awards will only be offered to people in the Caboolture area.
Embrace the challenge and discover the benefits of a Week Without Driving. Sign up today and get ready to see your community in a whole new way! Let’s create a more inclusive, empathetic, and connected community together.
