‍More Than Graphics: Changing Lives Through Opportunity

‍“Everyone involved has helped save a life – mine.”

These powerful words from Revs Limiter followed a bespoke design project with Mission Motorsport’s Printing & Livery team in Wantage, highlighting how the charity’s impact extends far beyond motorsport.

‍Alongside delivering professional graphics and livery services, the team supports serving personnel, veterans, and family members as they transition to civilian life. Through work placements, training, and hands-on projects, participants gain valuable skills, confidence, and pathways into employment.

‍Our Printing & Livery team brings together more than 30 years of industry experience, producing high-quality vehicle graphics, race decals, event branding, signage, and bespoke designs for clients across the motorsport industry and beyond. This work is made possible through the continued support and close partnership ofRoland and Metamark, whose generosity help the team deliver exceptional results while creating meaningful opportunities. Whether you're looking to brand a race car, promote an event, or create eye-catching graphics for your business, our experienced team can help.

‍Thank You to Oppo’s Working Care Farm

Mission Motorsport would like to extend a huge thank you to Oppo’s Working Care Farm for their generous donation of £1,000.

Recently, members of the Mission Motorsport team visited the farm to meet owner and veteran Jon, his wife Lissie, and the dedicated volunteers who help deliver lambing days, farm tours, animal care workshops, and other activities on their farm. Founded on a passion for helping others and a love of farming, Oppos Working Care Farm is a social enterprise supported by volunteers from the Armed Forces and Emergency Services communities. Their commitment to creating a welcoming, educational, and supportive environment has made a real difference to many people.

We are incredibly grateful for their support and for the important work they do.

Mission Motorsport Volunteer Selected to Marshal at Le Mans

We are delighted to share that one of our fantastic volunteers, Ed Moses, has been selected to marshal at this year’s legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans on 16th–17th June.

Ed, who is also an experienced motorsport marshal, will be based on Posts 16/17 along the famous Mulsanne Straight - one of the most iconic sections of the circuit. This is an incredible achievement and a hugely exciting opportunity.

Representing Mission Motorsport, Ed will also be proudly wearing one of our new Mission Motorsport Marshal jackets while on duty. Good luck, Ed, from everyone at Mission Motorsport

Mental Health Matters Every Day

From 11–17 May, people across the UK marked Mental Health Awareness Week, helping to raise awareness and encourage conversations about mental wellbeing.

Although the week has passed, the message is just as important. Life can be challenging at times, and taking a moment to check in with yourself and those around you can make a real difference.

Whether it's catching up with a friend, staying active, spending time with people who matter to you, or reaching out for professional support, small steps can have a positive impact on your wellbeing. Sometimes, simply talking about how you're feeling can make things seem a little more manageable.

At Mission Motorsport, we see first-hand the value of connection, shared experiences, and community. Our events bring members of the Armed Forces community together, creating opportunities to build friendships, support one another, and enjoy new experiences in a welcoming environment.

Remember, you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Support is available, and asking for help is a sign of strength. If you or someone you know needs support, please click the link for organisations that can help.
