Drive It Day

What's it all about?


The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Club's national ‘Drive it Day’/‘Ride it Day’ is the annual opportunity to raise awareness and support amongst the public for the historic vehicle movement and keeping heritage on UK roads.

It sees clubs schedule regional and local events throughout the country.

Importantly, it also raises funds for the NSPCC’s Childline, using yesterday’s vehicles to support today’s children.

Fundraising is an integrated part of ‘Drive it Day’, in which our movement comes together to contribute to a section of society that needs huge help and support – vulnerable children.

This money is raised by the purchase by drivers and riders of a fundraising ‘Drive it Day’ rally plaque. It’s an easy way for drivers and riders to show their support, and donate vital funds.

In 2023, the FBHVC raised a record £51,000!
