We have decided to add to the Clap for the NHS campaign which takes place each Thursday evening at 20:00 by creating a ‘Rev-Up for the NHS’.

We are all missing using our cars at the moment so in aid of making as much noise as possible to express our appreciation, we want to encourage you to fire up your cars at the same time, bit for no longer then one minute and allow your car to do the expressing...

However, we want to make it more meaningful than just making a noise, so have setup a donations page here

We are asking you to please donate a voluntary amount to take part in this and all proceeds will be given to the NHS to assist them in procuring the vital PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) desperately need to carry out their work in safety.

Also a great many hospital patients are running out of vital necessities such as toiletries because their families are unable to visit them in the Covid-19 wards and we aim to donate some of the money to relieving this pressure too.

We have set up a Facebook page and would encourage you to film your ‘Rev-up’ on your mobile phone and share it to the page - Rev-Up for the NHS.

We will also be trying to get some well-known faces from motorsport to take part and if you would like to express your thanks with a very short message at the beginning of end of the start up please feel free to do so.

At some point all of us who use our cars may rely on the NHS, Air Ambulance and Ambulance services. So if you own a car that makes a noise, a racing car, a rally car, a Grand Prix car, an historic car, a sports car, please join us to have a little bit of fun and show a lot of appreciation and raise some money for some much needed relief.

Remember to stick to all the social distancing guidelines which means you should not have more than two people to start the car for those requiring a crew to get it going. Also, if you are going to start your car at 20:00 on Thursday evenings please give consideration to ensure any neighbours are not inconvenienced or cause disruption that would last for longer than one minute. You are also free to pre-record your rev-up and post it on our Facebook page.
