Club Time Attack Announces 2026 Fundraising Campaign in Support of Isle of Sheppey Band and Mission Motorsport

Following the continued success of its 2024 and 2025 fundraising initiatives, Club Time Attack is proud to confirm that our charitable efforts will continue into the 2026 season. This year, the organisation will support two causes: the Isle of Sheppey Band and Mission Motorsport.

After nearly 80 years as part of St John Ambulance, The Isle of Sheppey Band ( the last remaining band of its kind in the UK ) has become an independent organisation. This has allowed the band to expand its reach and impact across the island, providing inclusive access to music for children, young people and adults alike. With a strong emphasis on community and intergenerational learning, the band offers a welcoming environment where individuals of all backgrounds can develop musical skills and confidence.

As part of this partnership, the Isle of Sheppey Band will perform at two major Time Attack Organisation events in 2026:

• Brands Hatch Tunerfest South – 14 June (Event 4)
• Brands Hatch Go Japan – 31 August (Event 7)

These performances will place the band in front of thousands of attendees, offering a unique opportunity to showcase their talent while representing the Isle of Sheppey on a national stage.

The Isle of Sheppey Band is local to Club Time Attack’s HQ in Sheerness, Kent and was chosen by its staff as a local cause.

Richard Broster from the Isle of Sheppey Band said: “We’re incredibly proud to be performing at Brands Hatch. It’s an iconic venue, and to be part of such a high-energy event is a fantastic opportunity for the band. Moments like this show just how far we’ve come, and we’re excited to represent the Isle of Sheppey on such an occasion.”  

Alongside this, Club Time Attack will also raise funds for Mission Motorsport, a UK-based charity dedicated to supporting the recovery and rehabilitation of wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans. Operating under its powerful motto, “Race, Retrain, Recover,” the charity uses motorsport as a pathway to rebuild confidence, develop new skills and create opportunities for sustainable careers within the automotive industry.

Laura Westrope from Mission Motorsport said: “We’re incredibly proud to be named as a Time Attack supported charity. Motorsport sits at the heart of what we do and partnerships like this give us the chance to reach more people, share our work, and ultimately support more members of the Armed Forces Community as they rebuild their lives beyond service.”

Throughout the 2026 season, a range of fundraising initiatives will contribute to supporting both charities. These include:

• Late payment entry fee penalties, as outlined within championship regulations
• Driver tyre raffles, with tyres generously supplied by Yokohama Tyres
• An end-of-season Club Time Attack raffle
• A headline raffle prize of a full-season driver entry into a Club Time Attack Championship
• Additional fundraising activities introduced across the season

Andy Barnes, Chairman of Club Time Attack, said:
“I am delighted to confirm our Club support for two great charities this season, splitting our support between something local and nationwide. We are in a position to help others via these very simple initiatives through our racing season and I  thank everyone in advance for contributing and playing their part to raise money as best they can. I hope we can hand over significant sums once again ‘’

Club Time Attack is proud to support the Isle of Sheppey Band and Mission Motorsport and looks forward to another successful, safe and enjoyable season.
