Marshals’ Acquired Rights Scheme

As part of the new Marshals’ Development Pathway, Motorsport UK has set up an acquired rights process to enable marshals to have their knowledge, skills and experience recognised by a more suitable grade of registration.

As part of the new Marshals’ Development Pathway, Motorsport UK has set up an acquired rights process to enable those who may not have previously registered, or have chosen not to upgrade, to have their knowledge, skills and experience recognised by a more suitable grade of registration.

To qualify for a higher grade of registration under the acquired rights scheme, you must supply information to your Club, who will then complete the necessary Club declaration or nomination letter and forward all of the documents to Motorsport UK. Acquired rights applications will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.

Jon Bolton

Jon is our Regional Training Coordinator, and also our Communications and Publicity Manager.
 
He went on his first rally at the age of 5 when his uncle was marshalling the Cropton Forest stage on the Lombard RAC Rally. That was in the days of Roger Clark and the all-conquering Escorts. The sounds and smells of rally cars have never lost their appeal. As an adult, working on an ambulance crew covering Cadwell Park in the mid 90s, he frequently encountered drivers who had come to an abrupt stop somewhat sooner than they had anticipated. Jon is a licensed rescue team member and Motorsport UK Trainer. He sits on Motorsport UK's Training Working Group and their Rescue and Recovery Working Group, as well as being a member of Motorsport UK's national training team for Safeguarding.

He is a STEM Ambassador and a Scottish Regional and UK National Judge for F1 in Schools, a not-for-profit social enterprise aiming to change the perception of STEM-related subjects through global competition.
