2024 is set to be an exciting time for the country politically. A general election is looming and it is looking like a record number of new MPs may enter the House of Commons by the end of the year. The BVRLA wants to make sure MPs and candidates are thinking about fleets and understand the importance of our industry, but we can’t do it alone. We are asking members to sign up to support our engagement programme next year and become industry champions.

We are looking for one Industry Champion per member site. Please note, this programme is not currently designed for associate members or industry stakeholders. If you would like to support the BVRLA's work in this area, please email [email protected] to discuss.

- You have the necessary permissions from your senior management team to sign up and be the primary contact for your firm at your location
- You agree to the asks set out in the BVRLA’s Future of Fleets Manifesto and will use your position as an industry champion to promote and endorse these asks
- Engagement will be carried out in a non-partisan way, and candidates from across the political spectrum will be treated equally regardless of your personal political beliefs
- Agree to host MPs/political visits at your office, a visit occurs, and liaise internally to ensure appropriate firm representation
- You are giving the BVRLA permission to email you about the Industry Champion engagement programme
