The REVS Pilgrim Tour – combining community friendship, integrity and mental well-being. Thanks to the partnership with StarterMotor Charity, the opportunity on offer is for two worthy winners to take part in the sold-out adventure through the splendor of South Wales.
REVS is asking the wider motoring community to nominate those who would benefit most from such an opportunity. The criteria are simple: people who have faced struggles in their life affecting their wellbeing, and who have never had the opportunity to take part in a vehicle tour. The 2013 Morgan Plus 4 – a staple and much-loved vehicle within the StarterMotor fleet - will be revved and raring to go, conveying the two lucky winners on this once-in-a-lifetime trip. Proposers can submit names by email to revs@revscommunity.org, with a quick explanation of why joining the Pilgrim Tour would be beneficial to their wellbeing. The final selection, made by REVS trustees, will be announced in September - the deadline for nominations should be sent no later than August 31st.
Dedicated to preserving our automotive heritage by assisting a younger generation to find work experience and jobs in the classic car sector across a range of professions, StarterMotor works with schools and colleges to engage and support their careers activities. Perfectly in step with our core values of integrity, generosity and restoration, the partnership for the Pilgrim Tour 2025 will see two lucky petrolheads enjoy a modern classic for a timeless drive through the South Wales countryside this autumn.
The REVS Pilgrim Tour is about restoration, be it people or communities; it reflects the true spirit of a pilgrimage. It’s open to everyone: people of faith, no faith, and everything in between. We welcome nominations from across the age spectrum (18 and over) - the classic and historic vehicle sector is a close-knit community, and this tour is a celebration of its openness and purpose.
Hugely successful, and acclaimed for its work, REVS Pilgrim Tour builds on the foundation laid since the first event in 2021 and, reflecting its growing popularity, all general admission spaces for 2025 are already taken. In the words of last year’s winner, the Tour is a “great experience of ‘time out’ from what seems to be becoming an ever busy and stressful life. Perhaps a better way to put it would be ‘a pause from my hectic lifestyle to refocus on what life is.’
I have felt reconnected to the beauty of our surroundings with like-minded people from a world of different backgrounds, brought together through our love of old cars. Adam’s reflections provide the perfect focus to unwind and leave work and life stresses behind….”
If you have someone in mind who you feel is naturally deserving of this wonderful opportunity, please submit a nomination proposal to revs@revscommunity.org before August 31st.
