Chloe Grant is an impressive young woman who started a racng career go karting and very quickly progressed to a racing debut in 2021 at the Junior Saloon Car Championships, finishing 14th. She was only 15 years old at the time.

A year later she graduated to the F1 Academy and she is now part of the GB4 Championship racing on familiar territory across the UK’s best circuits. It will be an exciting year ahead hopefully culminating in a second-year place in the F1 Academy for 2025.

Kirsty Muir, a Scottish Freestyle Skier, established a relationship with the group many years back when she was just 15 yeas old and we have been privileged to see her rise to fame. Having crossed paths at a sport function in Aberdeen, the Group offered some financial support to help her travel to Europe to train and compete.

Hard work and focus delivered results when she took to the world stage at the Winter Youth Olympics in 2020 and at the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing, where she was the youngest member of Team GB. Kirsty now has the very coveted title of being a Red Bull athlete and at the young age of 19, has an exciting career ahead of her and is most certainly one to watch out for in the freestyle skier world.

Ellie Gower at bmw golf day

Ellie Gower is an incredibly talented golfer who is currently partaking in the Ladies European Access Tour. She currently has three top ten finishes and ambitions to join the Ladies European Tour and LPGA.

She attended the University of Colorado after she won a prestigious golf scholarship to study there and had great success as part of the team. This included ranking third in the team with her 75.90 stroke average across 21 rounds and 7 tournaments: placing her stroke average fifth in CU sophomore history. She was also the top Buff at the Pac-12 Championship and placed 13th overall. Currently she is ranked 965th in the Rolex rankings with an average of 0.02 points across 27 events.

Natasha Phillips is truly an up and coming athlete, Natasha is currently the U20 European and British Half Marathon record holder completing the 13.1 miles in just 71 minutes and 19 seconds. She is also the Scottish senior champion over 10km, 10 miles and half marathon. Originally a swimmer and a triathlete, Natasha became more focused on running during the pandemic and has progressed from strength to strength. She is an aspiration to young athletes as she demonstrates a real maturity to her sport and competitions.

As expected, her training is intense, but she makes a point to stress it is important to add variety and always listens to her body and varies her programme accordingly. Again, one to watch both on the athletics track and on the road running scene.
