International Women’s Day is an opportunity to recognise the women who make community transport possible – often working quietly, but making a profound difference to people’s lives.

Across the UK, women keep services running: coordinating journeys, driving minibuses, supporting passengers, managing projects and leading organisations. Their work helps thousands of people stay independent, travel with confidence and remain connected to their communities.

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.
