Gama Aviation and Mission Motorsport join forces with new partnership
• The Forces’ Motorsport Charity announces link-up with aviation specialist Gama
• New partnership brings support for Mission Motorsport’s charitable endeavours
• Military bond between Mission Motorsport and Gama showcases perfect synergy
Mission Motorsport aims to fly higher than ever through the remainder of 2026 and into the coming years after today, 30th September, announcing an important new partnership with Farnborough-based global aviation specialist Gama Aviation.
Underpinned by the Armed Forces Covenant, a pledge The Forces’ Motorsport Charity and Gama have each made in recognition of the sacrifices made by military personnel, veterans, reservists and their families, the new agreement brings two very like-minded bodies together for the first time.
Just as Mission Motorsport works tirelessly to support the recovery and rehabilitation of those individuals who have been impacted by military service, exploring career opportunities beyond military service, so too Gama Aviation fosters an inclusive workplace which places immense value on the very unique skills and experience of Armed Forces veterans.
The capacity of Gama Aviation within its sector is vast with an incredibly diverse portfolio of business activities. From charter flights to aircraft management and maintenance, through to special missions with the military, Police and Air Ambulance, and also offshore activities with energy infrastructure.
Established in 1983, Gama Aviation has become a true global player with ground operations across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Asia. The business highlights five values which support its purpose – dependability, performance, expertise, authenticity and client focus.
Mission Motorsport, of course, promotes both physical and mental wellbeing for service leavers, veterans and their families through meaningful employment and training within motorsport and the wider automotive sector. The partnership with Gama now expands this work yet further into the world of aviation.
Alex Atherton, Managing Director, Mission Motorsport:
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Gama Aviation as a partner of Mission Motorsport. We are united by a shared commitment to recognising the immense value that service leavers, veterans and their families bring to the civilian workforce, and by a belief that those who have served should have every opportunity to succeed beyond military service. This partnership represents an exciting new opportunity to broaden the pathways available to our beneficiaries and strengthen the support we provide. Gama Aviation's longstanding commitment to the Armed Forces community, combined with its reputation as a world-class global aviation business, makes the organisation a natural fit for Mission Motorsport”
Mark Smith, Managing Director, Special Mission, Gama Aviation:
“At Gama Aviation, we recognise the exceptional skills, professionalism and resilience that Armed Forces personnel bring to the workplace. Our partnership with Mission Motorsport is a natural fit, built on shared values and a common commitment to supporting service leavers, veterans and their families as they transition into civilian careers. We are proud to work alongside an organisation that makes such a meaningful difference, and we look forward to helping create new opportunities within aviation while further strengthening our support for the wider Armed Forces community”.
