About Transaid

Transaid is an international development organisation that transforms lives through safe, available, and sustainable transport.

Founded by Save the Children, The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT), and its Patron, HRH The Princess Royal, we work with communities, partners, and governments to address transport challenges across sub-Saharan Africa.

Get involved

Take part as an individual

Set your own challenge this May and raise funds (or donate what you save) to support Transaid’s life-saving work.

Whether you push yourself physically or make a simple lifestyle change, every action adds up.

Take on a physical challenge and set up a fundraising page on JustGiving to share your journey with friends, family and colleagues. You can also join the Transaid Month 2026 Club on Strava to track your progress, connect with fellow supporters and share updates along the way.

Even skipping a £3.50 takeaway coffee each weekday in May and donating what you save could raise over £70 for Transaid.

Take part as an organisation

Bring your colleagues together this May and turn everyday actions into meaningful change. Whether you host a team challenge, encourage individual participation, or amplify the campaign internally, your organisation can play a powerful role in supporting Transaid’s life-saving work.

How your support makes an impact

This is Owen, Martha, their son Owen Jr, and their niece Gracious.

When Owen Jr and Gracious fell ill with malaria, getting them to a health facility quickly was critical. Thanks to the support of people like you, a bicycle ambulance was available to take them for treatment.

In many communities, reaching healthcare can be extremely difficult. As Owen explains:

“Some of us don’t even have a bicycle, so it’s very hard to reach the health facility, which is far from here. The bicycle ambulance helps us transport our children and loved ones whenever they are sick and need treatment.”

Your support helps ensure families can reach life-saving healthcare when it matters most.

Emmanuel Danso passed his driving test 37 years ago and has been training drivers in Ghana for the past 17 years. Transaid has been working to improve road safety in Ghana since 2021, supporting the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) to embed improved driver training and assessment across the country.

As one of the first driver trainers in Ghana to receive training aligned with the new HGV driver training standard, Emmanuel believes that the new manual will help to reduce road traffic crashes in Ghana.

“We should find a way, whatever means we can, to get drivers the knowledge I have acquired through Transaid. I encourage you to push the new curriculum hard so it is accepted, because it will help to reduce crashes. I think this standardisation will save a lot of lives on Ghanaian roads.”
