Charity partner Ben launches new challenge
bodyshop magazine charity partner Ben is tapping into the automotive community’s competitive spirit by inviting them to ‘Bring It On 4 Ben’ and take on a range of exciting new fundraising challenges to raise vital funds for colleagues in need.
The launch of ‘Bring It On 4 Ben’ will see both individuals and companies taking on different fundraising challenges to help Ben support even more industry people. Ben is asking automotive industry people to challenge themselves, their friends and colleagues to ‘bring it on’ and raise money for their industry charity at the same time.
Taking on a Bring It On 4 Ben challenge not only offers people the chance to support their community and colleagues but is also beneficial for their own mental and physical wellbeing by increasing their confidence, providing a sense of purpose and achievement and keeping them fit and active. Other benefits include fantastic team building opportunities as well as the chance to build new connections and meet people.A
There are 18 different challenges available, including reaching the highest heights in a skydive, trekking to a lost city, scaling a mountain or running a marathon.
Matt Wigginton, business development director at Ben, said, ‘The automotive industry is built on competitiveness and Bring It On 4 Ben is a great way to harness that. At the Ben Ball in December I asked a number of business leaders to Bring It On 4 Ben and we have been overwhelmed by the response so far. Now we’re opening up the opportunity to the whole automotive community.
‘As our industry faces uncertain times ahead, more and more people will turn to Ben for support so that’s why I’m asking the whole industry to get behind Bring It On 4 Ben and be part of something amazing together.
‘Whether you’re a one-man-band or a multinational, we have a challenge to suit you and your colleagues – both in the UK and further afield. You’ll be part of something fun and inspiring and will be raising vital funds to support people in our industry at the same time.’
