If you are a staff member you can use Enterprise Car Club for business travel and reclaim the expenses. You must access the Enterprise car club platform via the University's Procurement webpages.
Car Clubs are a great way to use a vehicle without owning it. No need to worry about servicing or maintenance, no need to pay the vehicle tax as this is managed by the Car Club. There are a range of modern vehicles available on demand and there is no time limit.
