RACING FOR CHANGE

Make A Mark is our commitment to driving positive progress through the influence of our team and our sport.

Since Aston Martin's return to Formula One in 2021, a commitment to ESG has been at the heart of everything we do. Our success is not only measured on track but also our ability to effect positive change in our team, as well as the communities and environment around us.

Our Make A Mark strategy is made up of three pillars: sustainability, community and inclusion. We track and report our progress against these pillars to ensure we are making a lasting positive impact and contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

SUSTAINABILITY

Building a sustainable business for the betterment and preservation of our planet.

COMMUNITY

Supporting the environment and improving the future and prospects of people in the communities where we live and work.

INCLUSION

Creating an inclusive and diverse culture that ensures everyone feels respected, supported, and appreciated, allowing them to thrive.

INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION

We advance economic mobility and expand access to high-quality STEM education and training in underserved communities by taking F1 beyond the racetrack and into schools and universities with the help of our partners, including Cognizant. We bridge the gap to F1 for local students with team showcar and team member visits, as well as panel discussions and workshops that showcase pathways to a career in the sport and provide STEM learning.

COMMUNITY

MOVEMBER

We've partnered with Movember to tackle mental health issues, prostate cancer and testicular cancer, and raised more than £20,000 in support of the charity in 2022.

Our fundraising activities have seen team members grow a 'mo' and take on a trackside table tennis challenge at the Brazilian Grand Prix to score as many points as possible in 60 seconds – for the 60 men lost to suicide every hour globally.
