TTS Expands With Tyne and Wear Takeover


TTS is proud to announce our expansion into Tyne and Wear through the takeover of a new training centre that strengthens our presence across the North East. This development marks a major milestone for our organisation and for the transport and logistics industry as a whole.


We are already the largest transport and logistics training provider in the North East. This expansion allows us to widen our impact even further by supporting more learners, working with more employers and creating more opportunities for people to begin life changing careers.


A Major Step Forward for TTS and the Region


This takeover brings immediate and exciting benefits that enhance our delivery and improve

access to training across the region. It has allowed us to:


  • Double our training fleet and increase operational capacity

  • Expand our range of programmes for learners and employers

  • Strengthen our presence across Sunderland, Newcastle, Gateshead and surrounding areas

  • Improve accessibility for anyone wishing to begin a career in logistics

  • Increase the number of people we can support into sustainable, future focused roles


This is not growth for the sake of growth. It is strategic progress that helps us improve standards, expand opportunity and support the regional skills agenda.


Welcoming New Team Members Who Have Already Made an Impact


One of the most positive outcomes of the takeover is the opportunity to welcome new colleagues who have joined TTS from the Tyne and Wear centre. Lynn, Simon and Linda have settled in effortlessly and have already become a valued part of our team.


Their professionalism, experience and commitment to supporting learners have brought new energy to TTS. They have been a genuine new light within the organisation and they strengthen our ability to deliver high quality, learner centred training.


A Message From Our Managing Director

“This expansion marks an exciting moment for TTS and for the communities we serve. The increased capacity, the talented new colleagues who have joined us and the opportunity to support even more learners mean we can continue to deliver training that truly changes lives. Our mission is simple. We want to help people build new careers and help employers strengthen their future workforce. The Tyne and Wear takeover allows us to do this with even greater impact and we are incredibly proud of what it means for the North East.”

Driving Forward


The Tyne and Wear takeover strengthens our foundation for long term growth. Over the coming months we will continue to:


  • Develop new programmes that meet employer demand

  • Improve training accessibility across the North East

  • Support more learners into sustainable careers

  • Build partnerships that shape the future of the transport and logistics sector


TTS remains dedicated to delivering training that is practical, purposeful and genuinely life changing.
