NAPA Auto Parts runs to support Race Against Dementia

NAPA Auto Parts has announced its support of Race Against Dementia, the charity founded by Sir Jackie Stewart OBE, through its title sponsorship of NAPA Racing UK.

Race Against Dementia is dedicated to accelerating research into the prevention and cure of dementia. By funding pioneering scientists and applying the high-performance mindset of Formula 1 to medical research, the charity is driving innovation and urgency in the global fight against dementia.

As part of this commitment, colleagues from across the NAPA Auto Parts network will collectively run over 1,082 miles, the equivalent distance from Penzance to Aberdeen, travelling virtually via Wales, Ireland, Northern Ireland, and the Knockhill Racing Circuit in Scotland before the BTCC race weekend on 8th and 9th August.

NAPA Auto Parts said the challenge reflects its extensive presence across the UK and Ireland, and the strong sense of community shared across the automotive and motorsport industries.

Donations can be made to the team’s fundraising efforts via the official NAPA Racing JustGiving page.

NAPA Auto Parts will be exhibiting at the 2026 Auto Trade EXPO, which takes place alongside the CV Workshop EXPO from 10th -11th October at the RDS Simmonscourt in Dublin.
