Benjamin McCormick, Co-Chair of the BeProud Network at Bentley, was awarded Rising Star of the Year. His work in engaging colleagues to identify and remove barriers, provide peer support, and build networks of allies has been instrumental in raising awareness and support for LGBTQ+ topics within Bentley and the local community.

Commenting on his award, Benjamin McCormick said: "It was a wonderful surprise to be nominated for this award celebrating some amazing LGBTQ+ young people whose impact on the world often goes unrecognised. As someone who grew up struggling to find relatable role models, it is heart-warming to be considered and see awards such as the QSA provide a platform for others like me, showing that it is possible to be queer and thrive in study, work, and life."

Bentley's Environmental Foundation received the Sustainability Initiative Award from Auto Trader. This award recognises Bentley's significant efforts to address climate change through various global projects. The judges were impressed by the breadth of Bentley's sustainability initiatives.

Bentley's collaboration with local charities and Non-Governmental Organisations extends the reach and impact of its sustainability efforts. The Bentley Environmental Foundation works with global communities and charities to develop solutions for some of humanity's most pressing challenges related to climate change.

International CSR Excellence Awards

Bentley also won a gold award at the International CSR Excellence Awards for Community Commitment. This recognition was given for Bentley's new community investment strategy, Advancing Life Chances. The strategy showcases Bentley's commitment to corporate social responsibility and advancing life chances in the community.

The International CSR Excellence Awards celebrate outstanding corporate social responsibility (CSR) and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives. These awards highlight organisations that demonstrate exceptional leadership and commitment to positive social and environmental impact through innovative projects and strategies.

Karen Lange, Member of the Board for Human Resources at Bentley Motors, commented: "These awards are a reflection of the extraordinary dedication and talent of our colleagues at Bentley Motors, and their creativity and commitment to fostering an inclusive, engaged, and sustainable workplace. I am incredibly proud of our team's relentless pursuit of excellence and their passion for making a positive impact both within our company and in the wider community."

Lange also acknowledged Benjamin McCormick’s recognition: "I would also like to personally acknowledge Benjamin’s deserved recognition. His leadership and passion as Co-Chair of the BeProud Network have significantly contributed to our mission of fostering a diverse and inclusive culture at Bentley."

Bentley Motors continues to lead by example in promoting inclusivity, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility within its operations. The company's recent awards underscore its ongoing commitment to these values.
