Oxford Universities Motorsport Foundation Supporters
Sincere thanks go out to all those listed below (and hosts of other well-wishers too numerous to mention individually) for their enthusiastic support for OUMF’s initiative to facilitate and train Oxford students in practical engineering through hands-on, logged involvement in its most glamorous and attractive aspect - motorsport. These high-achieving young men and women are not only the rising stars of what remains of the British engineering industry, but will be the future supporters, financiers, legislators, and defenders of historic motorsport in 10, 20, or even 30 years time.
This is why OUMF needs your enthusiastic encouragement now, to plant the seed of a life-long interest that will get them, and keep them, involved.
OUMF is an entirely independent student initiative - so not government or university funded - and so can only carry on its work with your continued support and help from your time, skill, advice, or offers to speak at fund-raising events, to student work placement opportunities, gifts of products to use or raffle, to teaching aids, tools, invitations to your events - or simply (but most usefully) by financial donation. OUMF’s astonishing popular success this year means it has totally outgrown its modest base already. It now urgently solicits the assistance of a major benefactor(s) to obtain and equip a training facility that can safely accommodate the numbers wanting to be involved; we also seek patrons to endow the Foundation in perpetuity. Thus secured, it will become a vitally important, independent resource - not just to all the students at Oxford as an accessible, practical facility and academic institution, but to industry too - for R&D, testing, and the recruitment of outstandingly intelligent and able personnel.
