url Motorsport UK Event Secretary and Event Steward Workshop
Sunday 27 October
Dunblane HydroThe third series of Event Secretary and Event Steward workshops will be held in October, November and December at venues across the UK, including Scotland and Northern Ireland. Motorsport UK are encouraging all individuals who are interested in, or actively perform these roles, to take part; however, attendance is not mandatory. These workshops will be as hands-on as possible and will provide an opportunity to learn more about the duties involved, help you to develop existing skills and allow you to share your experience with others. All are welcome to attend, however attendance is particularly encouraged from those within the grassroots disciplines of the sport.
These workshops will include, for the first time, exercises and discussions related to the usage of National Competition Rules (NCR) in 2025, which are set to replace the Motorsport UK Yearbook.
IMPORTANT: Due to the limited space available on these workshops, preference will be given to those who primarily carry out Event Secretary or Event Steward duties and are not already licensed Motorsport UK Stewards or Clerks of the Course.

url Motorsport UK Emergency Responders Webinar
Thursday 21 November 2024, 7pm
OnlineThe Why, not the Who
We’re inviting you to a special online session where we want to share with each other experiences and learning from incidents over the last 12-18 months.
These personal experiences highlight a crucial aspect in motorsport safety: the ability to share where things have gone well, and to learn from where could maybe have gone better. Hearing about practical examples and strategies so that other teams can learn from them and adapt them to situations that they may be involved in will help us all improve how we operate.
This will be a safe space to air personal opinions. Everyone feeling comfortable speaking up is vital.
If things could maybe have gone better… that’s ok. We need to own our mistakes, but when that’s done in an appropriate way, the culture is there for us to lean into each other and help each other. Let’s reframe how we look at things, turning them into opportunities for growth and improvement, rather than shying away when something goes wrong.
If you’ve got something that you want to share or talk through with the group, please let us know in advance so that we can plan the timings of the session.
This is one of our bi-monthly webinars aimed specifically at those involved in a first response role at incidents. Attendance is restricted to Motorsport UK licenced Medical, Rescue and Recovery personnel (full and trainee) and licence numbers will be verified before your registration is confirmed. Our webinars usually last for around 90 minutes and you'll receive a certificate as evidence of attendance.

This session is suitable for new marshals and anyone wanting a refresher, but it will be of particular benefit to those wanting to upgrade from Registered Marshal to Grade 1 Speed Marshal on the Marshals’ Pathway.
