Meeting once a month, our Trustees are accountable for everything we do, setting the Charity’s vision, values, strategy and policies for our key activities and monitoring our progress.
Our collective knowledge and experience of the charity and transports sectors spans decades and covers all aspects of community, politics, digital and advice services. Here you can see the people behind the email signatures, phone calls and newsletters at CTA and find out what makes them so driven to support you, our members.
CTA brings people and organisations together, both in person and online, with the purpose of raising awareness about community transport issues and advocating for policy changes, while learning from feedback, insights and experiences from attendees.

The Community Transport Association provides the UK’s only specialist advice and support service to groups and organisations delivering community-led transport in the UK. We do this by directly providing support and information on a wide range of topics, such as permits and licencing regulations, driver training, and operations, and by connecting with and signposting to other relevant agencies.
We fight for this every day by gathering evidence, engaging with politicians and conducting research which can change lives through policy, regulation and legislation.

The Community Transport Association (CTA) is a UK member-led charity that provides leadership, training, advice, and operational support to transport-related charities, community groups, and social enterprises across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

The Women in Bus and Coach (WiBC) initiative marks a significant stride towards gender equality in the UK's transport sector. In an industry historically skewed towards male dominance, WiBC emerges as a powerful advocate for change, championing a future where diversity and inclusivity are not mere ideals but tangible realities.
