Leading accident management company, Easi-Drive is to donate £10,000 to BEN, the UK's automotive industry charity.

Easi-Drive has chosen the charity as a beneficiary of its WheelsforGood fund, which was created by Managing Director Simon Bellamy, in order to give something back to the industry in which the business operates.

BEN was formed in 1905 to help people who work or have worked in the motor industry and their dependant family members. The charity provides practical help, support, advice and friendship to more than 15,000 men and women and their families every year. In addition BEN provides a home to over 350 individuals who reside in one of its four residential centres in the UK.

Simon Bellamy, Managing Director at Easi-Drive said of the donation: "Having grown a successful business within the motor industry over the last 10 years I feel immensely proud to be making this donation to BEN and supporting the work they do."

Nigel Williams, BEN's Commercial Development Manager said: "We are extremely grateful to Easi-Drive for their very generous donation, which will help make a real difference to those people in our industry who are in need of support."
