MINI GIRLS RALLY TEAM
We aim to take on the boys! In the Historic Rally Car Register Championship by competing in the Mini Sport Mini Cup 2017
We have joined to passions together! Rallying and making a difference by helping others!
The iconic Marie Curie Mini’ driven by Marie Curie nurse Louise Thomas and 16 year old co-driver Emily Easton-Page will be taking on the competition to raise vital awareness and funds for Marie Curie Nursing Services.
The car, a red and white 1993 Rover Mini, has been completely rebuilt to make it competition ready and sports several Marie Curie logos. The event is part of the HRCR Old Stager Championship, incorporating the Mini Sport Mini Cup.
Louise Thomas is a Marie Curie nurse on the Isle of Mull where she provides hands-on care and vital emotional support to people living with a terminal illness and their families.
Ahead of Championship Louise Thomas said: “Come along and
watch the action and give the girls a cheer! We aim to take on the boys in the Championship and raise vital awareness and funds for Marie Curie.”
Louise was inspired to become a Marie Curie nurse in 2011 following the care her mum received prior to her death from breast cancer. Louise Thomas
added: “It is an honour and a privilege to look after people at that
particular time in life. You go through so many emotions, I can remember crying but also laughing because we were reliving memories – just to have someone say that it was alright to laugh or cry was so important, someone who understood what we were going through. It is an honour to do the job I do today.”
