A typical DMS season runs from March to October. DMS is open to all, our come and try events in particular support guests with physical disability, learning needs, sensory impairment and mental health issues. We are also in the midst of facilitating Motorsport Inclusion Training (MIT) to all individuals within Motorsport community.
