  • The eternal vigilance of allyship
    Dec 18 2025
    This episode of CIHT’s Transport Talks was developed in partnership with the Bus Centre of Excellence.

    Featuring an interview with Tom Cunnington from Transport for London. Tom provides his insights into Allyship through his work with Women in Bus and Coach – an organisation that aims to create a national network to encourage, represent, support and retain women in the bus, coach and community transport profession.

    The theme of the episode is on the eternal vigilance of an ally – an implication of something that requires continuous effort – that help and support need to be part of an ongoing conscious undertaking.
