We hope it will also be an event that will grow in the future.” A number of other Race Against

John Race, paint facility and technical lead at Charge Cars and one of MyWorkwear’s customers, agreed to undertake the challenge in support of his father who has been diagnosed with Early Stage Dementia and will be Mr Worthington’s co-driver. They will be joined by other MyWorkwear customers Phil Stanley, owner of TWP Group, Steve Wood, castings operations director at Bridge Aluminium and HCM Engineering’s MD, Simon Hanson, who lost his father to dementia. Tony Sartorius, MD of Alucast, will also be joining the RADical Rogues in May.


Race Against Dementia is close to everyone’s heart at the company, as its founder Mike Worthington passed away from dementia with Lewy Bodies in 2021.
