Welcome to the Grand Prix Trust
Mental Health Awareness Week 2025 - 12–18th May
This year the emphasis on mental health awareness week is “Community”
As a whole, we are getting better at addressing mental health, and everyone’s aim is that we can all enjoy good mental health. We can only do this by looking at how we can prevent the negative side as well as how to build towards a good mental health and keeping it in that place. Talking is the answer, and by talking to someone, we begin to create a community which is shared by others suffering the same struggles. This is why the focus is on “Community” this year, and how having others to support us can have such a positive effect on our wellbeing.
As we approach Mental Health Awareness Week we want to think about those communities that help us with our struggles and support us to have a better mental health. We tend to thrive when we have strong connections with others and supportive communities around us.
For those of us that have a strong family background and good friends, their mental health is generally better and healthier, but this is not always the case and can be a mask for what is really going on in that person’s life. We should never assume.
Throughout the week, please remember that the Grand Prix Trust is here to help you and
more importantly to listen as well. If you would like to talk to us in confidence, please contact us on 077577 06889 or email to sally@grandprixtrust.com
We also have plenty of information in our Mental Health Leaflet which you can find on our
website: Grand Prix Trust Mental Health Leaflet

For four decades the Grand Prix Trust has provided help and advice to Formula One’s trackside and factory-based team personnel to put their lives back on track when things go wrong.
We also support the wider F1 community, extending to all employees (including their immediate families) who work, or have worked, for companies in the F1 supply chain for two or more years.
Our services provide effective and essential help which can take the form of financial assistance, specialist medical advice, ‘signposting’ to established relevant expertise and funding, and where appropriate advice relating to rights and benefits. Every case is dealt with compassionately and in total confidence.
Formula One is 75 years old and the Trust has helped members from the golden ages of Moss, Stewart, and Clark through to today. Our newly created bursary fund to assist underprivileged students through motorsport colleges and into motorsport jobs is proving very effective, and elegantly completes the circle on what the Grand Prix Trust provides.
In addition, we strive constantly to create a like-minded community through social events and Reunion lunches.
There is no membership fee to join the Trust should you be eligible.
If you’re an existing member, please do encourage your friends and colleagues to join – we really appreciate your support.
