JPC Specialist Motorsports

JPC Specialist Motorsports was created to help raise vital funds for JPC Community Farm by offering passenger ride experiences, world-class car events and unforgettable automotive experiences.

Paul used his loan to support the growth of the business, ensuring the team could raise even more money for JPC Community Farm. Between himself and his wife Julie, they have three businesses, all of which have received Start Up Loan funding.

JPC Specialist Motorsports and JPC Community Farm are named after Paul and Julie’s son, James Paul Connaughton. James was born in 2000 severely disabled and is non-verbal. He became socially aware by about 2012 and when Paul was watching Formula One on television, they noticed it was the first time James had paid attention to anything.

The couple would take James to motorsport events where he would love the roar and reverberation of the engines created by the cars on the track, and so JPC Specialist Motorsports is a perfect way to raise money for an important North East-based charity.
