Celebrating the Women keeping the country moving

Unipart Rail is excited to be sponsoring the Everywoman in Transport and Logistics Awards being held on Thursday 30th June 2022.

The awards celebrate the crucial contribution women make to the transport and logistics industry, and champion their significant accomplishments in a traditionally male-dominated environment.

Due to the Covid-19 crisis and driver shortages, the transport and logistics industry has been placed under unprecedented pressure. However the impact of this pressure has seen an increase in women entering the industry for the first time. Women, though, still account for only 20% of the 1.7 million people working within transport and logistics. This is why these awards play a vital role in celebrating success stories and championing women in the industry, thereby creating role models to inspire young women.

Unipart Rail is delighted to be sponsoring the Freight award at this year's ceremony, which will be represented by Kelly Pepper, Business Development Director UK & Europe at Unipart Rail.

Kelly, who is a judge for this year's awards, said the following, "Unipart Rail is honoured to be a partner of the Everywoman in Transport and Logistics awards again for 2022 and we are delighted to be sponsoring the Freight award, designed to recognise leaders and women in the Freight industry who are excelling in their roles.

The Everywoman in Transport and Logistics awards are an excellent platform to celebrate the amazing women in our industry and their achievements, talents and successes. These awards have had an extremely positive impact on the transformation of the industry, identifying agents of change and highlighting the importance of creating a strong, multi-skilled workforce. Unipart Rail is very proud to support this as the engagement and empowerment of employees at every level of our business is an essential part of our company culture and values."

Adding Value with CSR, Delivered Innovation.
