News 9 Untitled-1 1 16/06/2026 11:32 Automotive industry charity, Ben’s, Year in Numbers report showed a growing demand for health, wellbeing and financial support across the sector. Over the year covered by the report, Ben responded to 14,377 enquiries for support. A key standout was the growth in the number of people approaching it with multiple issues at once. While the figures demonstrate the impact Ben is making, they also highlight the unmet need that still exists across the industry. The most visited online support content reflected some of the biggest challenges currently affecting automotive people. The charity’s mental health section received 4,167 views, with SilverCloud, its digital mental health support platform, receiving 3,174 views. The website’s sections on interview skills guidance, redundancy rights, and financial advice were also among the most visited. Ben has also launched a new mental health self-assessment tool on its website in response to growing demand for support in this area. Rachel Clift, CEO at Ben, said: “Our latest report shows both the difference Ben is making and the growing challenges facing people across the automotive industry. While we’re proud of the impact we’re having, we also know the need across the industry is far greater than the number of people currently accessing our services. Too many people still don’t know Ben is here for them. Our ambition is to treble our charitable impact by 2030 so we can help far more people earlier, before challenges escalate into crisis.” The full report can be found at tinyurl.com/3kcmueww Automotive industry charity, Ben sets ambitious targets
