BEN
Ben supports the lifeblood of the automotive industry – it’s people. They provide support for life to anyone who works or has worked in the automotive industry. Ben supports people to navigate life’s challenges, helping them make positive, lasting changes to their lives. They work with individuals and companies to improve people’s health and wellbeing. Their life-changing support empowers people to take control of their health and wellbeing so they can live well. They can support through a crisis and help people with their mental health, physical health and their wellbeing. Ben also operates flexible, continuing care and support for those in later life, which is not dependent on an automotive industry connection. This includes excellent nursing, residential, dementia and respite care. They’re here to help people create a better tomorrow.

This is a charity that transforms lives through safe, available and sustainable transport. Transaid has many parallel activities we as a business will be familiar with, they focus on professional driver training, transport management systems, and rural access to transport. Their work helps to provide access to health care and road safety training to some of the world’s poorest regions, with a specific focus on sub-Saharan Africa. By strengthening transport, they enable women, children, and men in rural communities to reach health services when they are in desperate need.
