Bill handing over £1,500 cash to the RNLI at Littkestone station. Which was gratefully received. What a fantastic cause, every penny goes to them. No administration costs, everyone that is in this cause are voluntary no fat cats that’s why Bill and his team works hard to support these dedicated people who save lives at sea. Thanks to all you who have contributed to this cause. Good job to the RNLI .

Bill and Mary with a great passenger thrilled with her ride with Bill at Combe mini action day.

15/08/2021

What a great time the Bill Richards Racing team had a Combe this weekend. We met some fab people. We can’t thank you all enough to help us raise money for our passion the RNLI Lifeboats. All our passengers were brilliant. They were patient while waiting for their ride with Bill. We are so glad everyone enjoyed their adrenaline ride with Bill in his very fast Minispares 8 port Mini. We are looking forward to seeing you all next year.
A big thank you to the Combe Marshall’s that helped Bill get the mini out on the track in front of the que every time. We appreciated your help so much, it made our job a little easier to get through our rides list. Thank you all.
Bill
