Everyone at PH was deeply saddened by news of the fire at Bicester Motion on Thursday 15 May, which tragically led to the deaths of two firefighters and a local businessman.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to the friends and families of Dave Chester - who ran Chesters & Sons - and of Jennie Logan and Martyn Sadler, the two firefighters who died fighting the blaze. Their selfless dedication to protecting the public will not be forgotten.
Since the events of May 15, we have been in consultation with Bicester Motion, and with careful consideration, the PistonHeads Annual Service event will go ahead as planned on Saturday 9 August. We will be fundrasing for both the Fire Fighters Charity and the Go Fund Me page set up to support Dave Chester’s family on the day.
For anyone purchasing tickets, there will be an option to make a donation during checkout. For existing ticket holders, you can donate to the Fire Fighter Charity here and to the Dave Chester GoFundMe here.
