National Car Rental and ALD Automotive have agreed to supply cars to BEN, the automotive industry charity.

BEN welfare officers will be driving three Vauxhall Astras from National Car Rental and three Honda Civics from ALD Automotive.

Gerard Barclay, BEN chief executive, said: "We are so grateful for the support given to us by ALD and National Car Rental, who already support our charity in a number of different ways.

"The cars supplied will be driven by BEN’s welfare officers whose work is vital in developing the support we give to those less fortunate in the industry."
