Welcome to Team Heathrow Car Share
Why car-share?
The Heathrow Car-share scheme is available to all Heathrow staff. We want to reclaim our #1 spot as the UK’s top car sharing scheme, and need your help to make that happen. Members know the scheme works, its quick, simple and easy and now only a one step registration process. The Heathrow Car-share scheme is an online matching tool; you can join for free and register your journey and download the Liftshare companion app. You can register a commute journey, an occasional/shift journey or a one-off journey. The system will look for matches around your area but also will look for matches that you could pick up en route.

It really is as simple as it sounds
Car sharing allows you to share your commute with others who make similar journeys every day. Catch a ride with a colleague, offer to drive others yourself, or sign up to be a passenger or driver - simply decide what works best for you (or whose car is better) and get going. Our scheme is a flexible and convenient way to adapt your commute.
- Driving to work is easy, and preferable for many of us at Heathrow, but we can make it more cost-effective and planet-friendly with a more collective approach.
- Get access to priority car share parking bays too.
- Reduce monthly petrol spend by splitting fuel costs Click here to calculate your savings
