Mission Motorsport Achieves Gold!

Mission Motorsport, The Forces' Motorsport Charity is delighted to announce that it has been awarded the Employee Recognition Scheme Gold Award this year. Alongside 140 organisations, the charity has been recognised for its outstanding support towards the Armed Forces community.

Upon receiving the award, CEO & Founder James Cameron said, "Mission Motorsport was created to uphold the very values that the Armed Forces Covenant promotes. We are hugely proud to be recognised in this way, but more so of the work of our partner and sponsor companies who share that mission: to support those who serve the country, our veterans, and their families."

To win an award, organisations must provide 10 extra paid days leave for Reservists and have supportive HR policies in place for veterans, Reserves, and Cadet Force Adult Volunteers, as well as spouses and partners of those serving in the Armed Forces.

Organisations must also advocate the benefits of supporting those within the Armed Forces Community by encouraging others to sign the Armed Forces Covenant and engage in the Employer Recognition Scheme.

Minister for Defence People and Veterans, Leo Docherty said: “I would like to thank all the organisations who have proven their support for the Defence community during such unprecedented and challenging times.

“The vast range of those recognised this year demonstrates how employing the Armed Forces community makes a truly positive and beneficial impact for all employers, regardless of size, sector or location.”
