Yesterday, we hosted a #ChargeSafe event in partnership with Deliveroo at Shoreditch Fire Station, engaging with hundreds of Deliveroo riders on the critical issue of e-bike and e-scooter safety. Our safety messaging reached a vital audience within the gig economy, who regularly use e-bikes as part of their jobs. Over 300 riders came to the event, with many of the riders arriving on e-bikes, including several with converted kits. Our crews engaged with them and gave out our #ChargeSafe and Home Fire Safety Checker leaflets which share the key messaging of how to safely charge and store their e-bikes and e-scooters and how to keep their homes safe, either in English or other widely spoken languages in the Borough. We were also joined by representatives from Hackney and Tower Hamlets Councils, local councillors, the Cycling and Walking Commissioner, representatives from the Home Office and Transport for London, and received brilliant media coverage from the BBC and Islam Channel. Thank you to Shoreditch Green Watch, Deliveroo, Fettle, our stakeholders and other colleagues for their hard work in delivering an event that we hope will help to keep e-bike and e-scooter users safe.
