Our 'Meet the Movement' events are where our sector's operators, supporters and partners come together face to face to make new connections, build closer relationships and be part of something bigger - Scotland's growing Community Transport movement!
We were really delighted to be joined by Dani and the team from the Motability Foundation for last week’s ‘Meet the Funder’ session.
I often say I talk to people for a living. I've always been involved with roles where I am talking on behalf of groups and organisations, with lots of presentations, lots of papers, building relationships and trying to grow a shared understanding that makes the world just a little bit better for all of us.

Our mission is to make sure Community Transport Association (CTA) members have confidence in their choices, whether that means confirming your insurance broker really is giving you the best deal or discovering that there may be a better option waiting for you.
Trustees’ Week takes place on 3rd-7th November 2025 and allows us to shine a spotlight on the nearly one million trustees across the UK who give their time and expertise to support charities. It’s a great opportunity to recognise and thank those who play such an important role in strengthening communities and the organisations they lead.
At CTA, we’ll be marking the week by celebrating our own dedicated board of trustees - and encouraging our members to do the same by shining a light on the people who help their organisations thrive.
