Bristol Rovers 2022

Public transport (bus and train) travel to the Memorial Stadium is promoted on the club’s website.
The club promotes Voi electric scooters as an eco-friendly method of travel and has advised that there are nearby charging points in close proximity to the stadium.
A fan survey conducted over the summer of 2019 saw supporters ask for a Park ‘n’ Ride service, or dedicated bus service.
In February 2020, the club announced that Event Travel Hub was to launch ‘Gas Travel’ where Gas Travel coaches will park just outside the stadium, giving fans easy access.
Bristol Rovers requested for fans to complete an online survey to see where the demand for travel was geographically located and to determine route capacity.
Gas Travel proposed an introductory offer to charge £8 per person per return trip for the first five home fixtures. After the introductory games, there was a slight increase in the price. There are discounts for children that use the service.

Ahead of the start of the 2018/19 campaign, the club committed to removing single use-plastics.
The club set out a strategic plan to incorporate a diverse range of biodegradable alternatives for supporters to use on a match day including biodegradable and compostable catering disposables – which will be installed at the various kiosks and eateries around the Memorial Stadium.
Both the cups and burger trays that supporters see around the ground on a match day will be 100% compostable.
In addition, straws used will either be 100% paper or PLA manufactured.
Is the first UK football club to support the Plastic Free Pint campaign, spearheaded by A Plastic Planet, and is calling for a ban on plastic cups at all grounds.
All cold beverages are served in paper cups which are collected and recycled following each game. The club estimates the swap will mean over a tonne of plastic waste will be saved from landfills every season.
The club’s home and away shirts are made from Macron Eco Fabrics – a thread which is 100% PET recycled polyester and is certified by Global Recycle Standard. Each shirt is made with 13 500ml recycled bottles and are packed in recycled polybags which are made from 100% recycled low density polyethylene.

Built a reservoir at the training ground which covers all of the club’s water sources.

Set up a trees and kit initiative with the Word Forest, for both this country and also in Africa.

Sustainability education within the academy or the Bristol Rovers Community Trust.

Participates in the Pledgeball League and encourages its supporters to make pledges and save the most carbon emissions.
Participated in Planet League’s CUP26 and ‘Planet League Cup’ competitions.
Invited a local amateur to The Quarters Training Ground to train with first team goalkeeper coach Jed Ward and Tony Warner. Organised as part of Smart Energy GB and EFL’s ‘Save Like a Pro’ campaign, the session also advised how the footballer could control energy off the pitch such as getting a smart meter installed at home.
