A MALVERN motorsports club has appealed for sponsorship to help attract top motorcyclists.

Malvern Motorcycle and Light Car Club is organising a grass track event at Earls Croome on Sunday, August 17. However, financial backing is needed.

Vice-chairman Tom Vivian said: "Club members will give their time to run the event and the club will fund overheads and expenses, which we hope to recoup from gate receipts.

"However, the club cannot afford to put up the necessary prize money to attract top quality riders and we hope to do this through sponsorship by local companies."

A donation of £25 will pay for a listing in the programme as a sponsor, an announcement over the PA system and four complementary tickets. A further £25 will buy space for trackside advertisements and a promotional caravan or tent. More details from Gwen Farrer on 01684 569616.
