BEN Receives a Helping Hand for the British International Motor Show

A total of 80 volunteers have been recruited from a number of companies to help support BEN, the Automotive Industry Charity, at this year’s British International Motor Show. All together, the volunteers are filling 92 shifts and will help to man the BEN stand (no. 62 in hall S3), sell National Draw tickets, give out children’s wristbands and help to raise BEN’s profile.

Employees from Ford Motor Company Limited, Ford Financial Europe, Ford Financial Britain, Enterprise Rent-A-Car UK Limited, FPS, The SMMT, Barclays Commercial Bank, Inchcape PLC, TTL Consulting, Volkswagen Group, Audi UK, Jack Barclay Bentley and the BVRLA will be lending a helping hand at the show.

Charles Davis, Director of Fundraising and Communications at BEN, commented, “The British International Motor Show provides a fantastic opportunity for us to raise awareness of BEN and the work that we do, but this would not be possible without the dedication of our volunteers.”
