Join the Motorsport UK volunteer network
In December, Motorsport UK hosted an Environmental Volunteer Networking Day at the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team Factory. This exclusive opportunity was a thank you and a celebration of the incredible work that our environmental volunteers have delivered throughout the year. Providing vital support to clubs across the country, this group of volunteers measures emissions at their motorsport events. The volunteers were treated to a unique opportunity to go behind the scenes of a world-leading motorsport facility. The day also provided space for the volunteers to connect with one another as well as engaging with professionals working in sustainability roles across the motorsport industry.
If you would like to join this team, and get involved in future events, register your interest via the Motorsport UK Inclusion Volunteer Interest Form.
The Environmental Volunteers Day at the Mercedes F1 base meant a lot to me, bringing together several of my passions in one place. Seeing how a worldleading F1 team approaches sustainability was incredibly inspiring, and it was fantastic to be recognised by Motorsport UK for our volunteer work. The Mercedes staff were welcoming and generous with their knowledge, and as someone in the aerospace sector, it was exciting to see how F1 and aerospace align on sustainability.
I had an amazing day at Mercedes F1! It was interesting meeting the sustainability team from Silverstone, Motorsport UK, and Mercedes F1, and learning about applications, day to day life, and the barriers to sustainability in motorsport. It was also a lovely opportunity to meet and network with other volunteers which I hadn’ t had the chance to do before.
