Lease Electric is pleased to announce its official partnership with C2S, following its sponsorship of the Corporate Social Responsibility Category at the C2S Business Awards 2025.
Through this involvement, Lease Electric saw firsthand the value that Angela, Suzanne and the wider C2S team bring to growing organisations. Their practical support, expert insight and community-driven approach highlighted a strong alignment between the two organisations, making the decision to become an official partner a natural next step.
“Our partnership with C2S reflects what Lease Electric stands for: practical sustainability that drives real business impact.” Said Managing Director, Richard Markey. “As we celebrate five years of growth, we’re proud to work alongside the local business community to reinvigorate the sustainability conversation and support organisations transitioning to cleaner, electric transport through our Climate Positive Leasing Service.”
As the newly appointed C2S Sustainability Partner, Lease Electric will work collaboratively with C2S over the coming year to build on the foundations of its Climate Positive Leasing Service and help reinvigorate conversations around the importance of sustainability in business.
With increasing pressures on both organisations and individuals, sustainability initiatives can often slip down the list of priorities. However, even small, considered actions can deliver meaningful and long-term impact. Together, Lease Electric and C2S aim to make sustainability more accessible, practical and relevant for businesses of all sizes.
This partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting the business community, driving positive change and inspiring progress through collaboration.
Lee Bowtell, EV Sales and Leasing Consultant at Lease Electric said: “We are proud to partner with C2S, having connected with so many of its members and nominees through the Awards. This partnership strengthens our commitment to the business community, providing the opportunity to further support C2S members as they transition to Electric Vehicles.”

Who we are
Lease Electric is an independent vehicle finance and leasing broker based in Gloucestershire, helping businesses and individuals transition to electric cars and vans through leasing, company vehicle schemes and salary sacrifice. Founded by Richard in 2020 as Fleet Electric, the business drew on his experience and relationships across the leasing industry, OLEV, the Department for Transport and EV charging manufacturers. In April 2024, it rebranded to Lease Electric to reflect a stronger commitment to accessible EV leasing and climate-positive impact.
As the UK’s first Climate Positive Leasing Service, Lease Electric supports the shift to electric vehicles, helping organisations cut Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions and address transport’s significant contribution to UK greenhouse gases. By partnering with all mainstream vehicle manufacturers and a tailored panel of funders, we help businesses and individuals transition to the vehicles best suited to them.
Building on our sponsorship of the 2025 CSR category in the C2S Business Awards, becoming an official partner was a natural next step. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to supporting the business community, driving positive change and inspiring progress through collaboration. We’re looking forward to revitalising the conversation around sustainability.
