Wombwell Karting are raising funds in memory of Joe, on the 9th/10th August as we hold the Joe Dale Memorial Meeting. Not only are we are hoping to raise funds leading up to this event and during, we hope to raise awareness around the problems and suffering Asthma can cause.

Sadly, on Friday 23rd June 2017, Junior X30 driver Joe Dale died after having an asthma attack whilst at the park with friends. He had not had any previous asthma attacks so didn’t think he needed to take his inhaler with him - as a lot of people do. This attack was severe and caused Joe’s lungs to collapse and despite the efforts of Yorkshire Air Ambulance and the local hospital they could not save him.

Joe, only really raced at Wombwell, his parents still support the club. Joe is always in our thoughts and his memory will live on for as long as I am Secretary at the club, as he holds a place in my heart.

Your donations will be gratefully received via this page and every penny given will support very worthy causes especially Asthma UK - to help highlight the dangers of Asthma and the importance of always carrying your inhaler - even if you don't think it's that bad.
