Females in Motorsport partners with Driven By Us

Females in Motorsport and Driven By Us are excited to announce their partnership as we strive for better inclusion and representation throughout the motorsport industry.

We begin this partnership at the start of Black Inclusion Week (13-19 May) in the UK. Black Inclusion Week aims to both empower and celebrate the contribution black people have in our society. Throughout this week and beyond, we will be sharing the stories of many talented black women in motorsport who continue to make such a significant impact on the industry.

“Black Inclusion Week holds particular significance for us as it highlights the importance of inclusion and representation within the community, shining the light on success stories as we do in society with a focus on talented women in motorsport. It's a time to recognise the contributions of individuals & address systemic barriers they face, and promote inclusivity in all aspects of life.” - Driven By Us.

"As our community continues to advocate for increasing opportunities for women in motorsport, it’s important that we recognise and understand the barriers to access and challenges that many women face. Today, we’re strengthening our commitment for industry change and are excited to announce our ongoing collaboration with Driven by Us. Through this partnership, we will be highlighting the many exceptional black women in motorsport, engaging young girls from underrepresented backgrounds, and continuing the discussion of inclusion in the motorsport industry. It’s essential that we collaborate with others to empower women, create new role models, and ultimately ensure that our industry is reflective of the community who follow it, support it, and want to work in it.” - Females in Motorsport.
