Last week was a very special one for Mission 44! It kicked off by launching our official collaboration with Formula 1 which will see us work together to continue to drive forward diversity in motorsport. We got to work straight away, bringing together over 60 employees from across the motorsport sector to discuss and take action to create more opportunities for young people in the sport. One opportunity that is already seeing results is our MSc Motorsport Scholarship programme, supported by Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team and the Royal Academy of Engineering. Together we are opening doors for young aspiring engineers to pursue careers in Formula 1 and we were delighted to welcome five scholars to Silverstone to meet with Lewis, hear from trackside engineers and explore the world of F1. To cap it all off, seeing the boss record a ninth win at the British Grand Prix, crossing the line in a special edition Mission 44 helmet, was unforgettable. It's wonderful to be working with such brilliant partners, and it was great to host many of them alongside our supporters this weekend. Change requires collection action, and I know that together, we can all play our part in building a fairer, more inclusive future for young people around the world.

The last 12 months have been incredible—never would I have thought I'd be sitting with Lewis Hamilton. It’s truly amazing. I am forever grateful to all those who made this possible. Thanks to you all, I am now in a better position to inspire the next generation of talented engineers, showing that with a positive mindset and a strong support network, anything is possible. A particular thanks to Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team, Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains, Mission 44 and Royal Academy of Engineering for shaping me into the engineer and ambassador I knew I could become !

Congratulations The Rt Hon Keir Starmer and The Labour Party on winning the General Election. We look forward to working together to tackle inequality in education and make education fair for every child and young person, regardless of their socioeconomic background. https://lnkd.in/gnXkRMDk On election night we were delighted to hear Secretary of State for Education, The Rt Hon Bridget Phillipson MP, promise to “tear down the barriers to opportunity which hold back too many of our children”. Today we’re launching Fair Education in 2024: Priorities for a New Government – providing the new Government with policies that prioritise, above all else, tackling inequality. We also look at fresh ideas already being implemented by some of our coalition of 300 members, and invite the Government to work with us all to develop and implement solutions together. Please join us in sharing this as widely as possible, as we speak with one unified voice – fair education is achievable! https://lnkd.in/gnXkRMDk #FairEdForAll
