Bentley has successfully ended another year of community investment, an important element of its ground-breaking Beyond100 strategy. In 2023, Bentley supported more than 320 charitable donations and projects across all regions of the UK, a 150 per cent increase over the previous year. The projects have been carefully selected to improve people’s access to services, empower and improve their quality of life, and support a better future.
Bentley’s community investment team has been supporting initiatives around Crewe for many years. In 2023, a new bespoke programme was launched: the Bentley Crisis Fund. Meanwhile, the new UK wide Advancing Life Chances (ALC) investment programme, developed in partnership with the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), has allowed Bentley to expand its community investment footprint even further afield to all corners of the UK.
Michael McDermott, Senior Advisor in Government Relations and Sustainable Luxury Bentley Motors, commented:
‘Bentley’s new ALC programme was designed with the help of the Charities Aid Foundation, allowing us to design a strategy to improve Bentley’s investment potential, targeting the areas that needed help the most. We are looking forward to seeing how ALC will help people across the country in 2024.’
