BEN, the automotive industry charity, received a donation of £50,000 at the BEN Ball from the Magma Group.

BEN is constantly striving to raise awareness of its services and looks to its supporters to help spread the message while continuing to support thousands of people in the automotive industry each year. The association with Magma is a hugely significant boost for the charity and its future.

Martin Leach, group chairman, said: “All of the team at Magma are pleased to support BEN and are particularly excited to be able to help at a time of huge investment and development of the facilities at Lynwood.”

David Main, BEN’s chief executive, said: “We are fortunate to work with an industry that appreciates the support we provide and that gives generously to ensure we can meet the increasing need. 

“This sizeable donation from Magma group is a fantastic act of generosity. It encourages everyone associated with BEN to see the support we are able to draw upon from our great industry.

“I am also genuinely excited by the prospects of a long and rewarding relationship with Magma Group who clearly share our vision for the future.”
