Go-Ahead Group Announces Corporate Sponsorship for Women in Bus and Coach (WiBC)
Go-Ahead Group is proud to announce its partnership with the Women in Bus in Coach (WiBC) as a corporate sponsor, further solidifying its commitment to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusivity in the workplace.
WiBC is a leading organisation dedicated to creating a national network to encourage, represent, support, and retain women in the bus, coach, and community transport profession. As a corporate sponsor, Go-Ahead Group joins WiBC in alignment with a common goal to foster an industry that embraces gender equality and provides dignity, respect and fairness for all.
"At Go-Ahead, we believe in the power of diversity to drive innovation, creativity, and success," said Carolyn Ferguson, Chief People Officer of Go-Ahead Group. "By partnering with WiBC, we are reaffirming our commitment to creating a workplace where all individuals have equal opportunities to thrive and succeed."
This partnership builds upon Go-Ahead's ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion, including the launch of the Go-Ahead Women campaign in March, which aims to increase the number of women bus drivers. Through initiatives like these, Go-Ahead Group strives to create a workplace where everyone, regardless of gender, has equal opportunities to succeed.
"We are thrilled to welcome Go-Ahead Group as a corporate sponsor of WiBC," Kerri Cheek, Director for WiBC. "Their commitment to diversity and inclusion reflects a shared vision of creating a more equitable future for women in business. Together, we will work towards breaking down barriers and empowering women to reach their full potential."
As part of its sponsorship, Go-Ahead Group will actively participate in WiBC's events, mentorship programs, and advocacy efforts, demonstrating its ongoing support for women's leadership and advancement in the workplace.
