Chestertons and EBike-Gibraltar Support Gibraltar’s Plant Conservation Efforts

Chestertons and EBike-Gibraltar have joined forces to support the important work of botanist Helder Santiago by providing a sustainable transport solution for his Gibraltar-based fieldwork over the next year. Helder will use an eBike from the Chestertons fleet, with the initiative jointly supported by Chestertons and EBike-Gibraltar.

Helder is undertaking the project "Identifying Priority Plant Species for Conservation in Gibraltar", led by the Gibraltar Botanic Gardens.

The project aims to strengthen the conservation of Gibraltar's native plant species, enhance biodiversity and create a lasting scientific record to help safeguard the future of the Rock's unique and valuable flora.

The collaboration reflects a shared commitment by Chestertons and EBike-Gibraltar to sustainability, active travel and protecting Gibraltar's natural environment.

Stuart Hedley, Managing Director of EBike-Gibraltar, said:

"We're delighted to support Helder's work alongside Chestertons. An eBike is the perfect way to travel around Gibraltar's diverse terrain, it's efficient, environmentally friendly and allows easy access to many of the locations that are central to this important conservation project. It's fantastic to see one of our bikes being used to help protect Gibraltar's natural heritage."

Paul Duck, Managing Director of Chestertons Gibraltar, added:

"At Chestertons we believe that supporting the community extends beyond property. Gibraltar's natural environment is one of its greatest assets, and we're proud that one of our branded eBikes will be helping Helder carry out research that will contribute to preserving the Rock's unique flora for future generations. Working with EBike-Gibraltar on this initiative is a natural fit, bringing together sustainability, innovation and community support."
