Local charities will benefit from a capacity 180 car field and increased spectators watching Britain’s top rally drivers on the Nicky Grist Stages 9-10 July.
Each year the event raises money for three local charities. The revenue received from all the spectator car parking charges and rally programme sales are split evenly between the Tirabad Village Hall and the Brecon Lions Club, while a collection is made at competitors’ signing on which, together with an additional donation by the event-organising Quinton Motor Club, is given to the Welsh Air Ambulance.
This year the event will be raising money for the BRC’s official charity partner, the Gareth Roberts Fund (www.garethrobertsfund.com) – which was set up in the memory of the 24-year old Welsh rally co-driving star who was killed in a freak accident on the Targa Florio Rally in Sicily in June 2012.
