We’re delighted to share that Road to Logistics has been accepted into the Aviva Foundation, which will use its Communities Fund to match-fund our current crowdfunding efforts.
Put simply, this means that for every pound we raise, they’ll match it (up to £25,000), giving us more valuable investment into filling skills gaps, supporting learners, and changing lives.
Only around 30% of applications to the Aviva Foundation are accepted, so this is a powerful recognition of what we do, and how important it is to help people build stability, independence and a more secure future. All by removing barriers to employment through fully funded training, and creating clear routes into work, with the right wraparound support where needed.
What is the Aviva Foundation?
The Aviva Foundation Community Fund supports small charities and non‑profit organisations that help people improve their financial wellbeing and overcome social challenges in their local communities.
Through a combination of public crowdfunding (via Crowdfunder) and matched funding from the Aviva Foundation, the programme backs organisations delivering practical support that leads to long‑term change.
How Aviva’s support helps us do more
Through the Aviva Foundation, every donation made to our campaign is matched by Aviva, up to £25,000 per annum.
This means if you donate, your support goes twice as far, helping us to:
- Deliver fully funded training for roles such as HGV/LGV drivers, warehouse operatives and forklift operators
- Provide mentoring and employability support to help people succeed at work
- Create direct routes into employment by working closely with local employers
Each donation helps someone take one step forward to employment, and long‑term financial security.
Why your donation matters
Local communities need opportunity, and people deserve the chance to build a better future. By donating, you’re not just funding training, you’re helping someone restart, rebuild, and regain their independence.
Make a donation today – all eligible donations are matched by Aviva.
Let’s changing lives through access to opportunity
Road to Logistics was created to deliver the kind of impact the Aviva Foundation exists to support, helping those who want to work and build a better, more financially stable future, but often find doors are closed.
We support individuals who are motivated and eager to work in the logistics sector, but are held back by circumstances beyond their control. This commonly includes:
- The cost of logistics training, which isn’t affordable without support
- Time out of work or gaps in employment that make getting a job harder
- Caring responsibilities or other life commitments
- Feeling excluded from a male‑dominated industry
At Road to Logistics, our focus on long‑term outcomes. We provide fully funded, accredited logistics training alongside practical employability support, and we only train when real job opportunities are available. This helps make sure that people move into good jobs that support lasting financial security, not short‑term fixes.
Learn more about how our fully funded logistics training works, or explore what current vacancies we might have in your local area.
Since 2020, we’ve helped over 730 people move from unemployment into stable, well‑paid roles. These life‑changing results demonstrate how our approach works, delivering long‑term benefits for individuals, families and the communities.
Are you looking for local, passionate, and ready-to-work employees? Whether you need a handful of HGV drivers or a full team of forklift operators, find out how you can employ through Road to Logistics.
Together, we can help more people move into sustainable employment and create lasting change.
