NEWS 6 AFTERMARKET JUNE 2021 www.aftermarketonline.net Ben health and wellbeing survey Ben has launched its fourth Annual Industry Survey. Ben is urging those who work, or have worked, in the automotive industry, to take part in its survey which asks a range of health and wellbeing questions. Ben is also asking automotive industry employers to share the survey link with employees to encourage their people to take part. Rachel Clift, Health and Wellbeing Director at Ben, said: “Each year, we ask people who work, or have worked, in the automotive industry to tell us about the issues they have faced, or are facing, with their health and wellbeing. We use these vital insights so we can continue to develop and provide the relevant charitable support and services that automotive people need now and in the future. I’d also urge automotive employers to share the survey link with their employees.” To take part in the confidential and anonymous survey, go to https://survey.alchemer.eu/s3/9 0341604/pr-Health-Wellbeing- Survey-2021 Move4Ben Ben is launching a new active challenge, Move4Ben, running through June. To take part, participants set a personal challenge in terms of distance and exercise type and commit to raising £100, enough to pay for two mental health counselling sessions. According to Matt Wigginton, Director of Partnerships, Engagement and Income at Ben, Move4Ben will help automotive people get back on track: “We’re really excited about our latest active challenge, Move4Ben! Giving people the opportunity to set their own challenge allows them to pick something they will personally enjoy and be creative, while also raising funds so we can continue to provide life- changing support for automotive people.” To sign up, go to: https://ben.org.uk/support- us/take-on-a-challenge/set-your self-a-challenge-and-move4ben- this-june/ 25 pairs of Goodwood Festival of Speed VIP tickets are up for grabs through an online promotion being run by LKQ Euro Car Parts.
