Sovereign Transport has gone from strength to strength. Starting with one vehicle, 23 years ago, we now have 110 vehicles, and 140 staff.
There are some big companies that we work with, and small independents as well, we’ll look after any business that needs freight moving across the UK.
Transport and road industry is tough at present. Due to massive fuel increases and the end of the pandemic which we worked every day through delivering goods to keep the country moving.
Here at Sovereign, we believe that as well as providing an important service keeping the nation moving with transport needs, it is important to give back to the community so we sponsored a children’s football tournament in the ‘AFC Knowsley weekend tournaments’ we have also supported AFC Knowsley by buying some advertising hoardings on their new pitch.
We have teamed up the Owen McVeigh foundation. Owen McVeigh Foundation | Helping sick children and their families. This is a Merseyside based charity that helps children and their families who are suffering with cancer. For the first time in our 23 years of trading, we have given names to our trucks.
We have started naming trucks in honour of the boys and girls who are going through tough times with their illness. Hopefully knowing a truck is out there with their name on can give them a little boost, and even better getting to see them once they are well enough.
We held an open day here are Sovereign where we invited the youngsters and their families from the Owen McVeigh Foundation to come and see the trucks with their names on. It was an amazing day, thoroughly enjoyed by us all. Here is a thank you card sent to us by the amazing “Frankie” who as you can see from the huge smile on his face, really enjoyed the day and seeing his adorable smiling face really made our day too.
In addition to naming our trucks, six of our staff members here at Sovereign Transport took part in an abseil down the Anglican Cathedral to raise money for The Owen McVeigh Foundation on the 23rd July. Money raised went towards helping the families.
Here is a photograph of one of our shiny new trucks with our brave team members standing in front. This was taken following their abseil and I’m sure you will agree they all look remarkably happy and relaxed considering the height they have just abseiled.
Some of our new trucks, one outside the Anglican Cathedral following the abseil and the rest at our depot.
