James said: “I have always had an interest in cars and combined with my roles as a Bipolar UK and a Falken ambassador, taking part in a charity rally seems the perfect vehicle for a fundraising challenge.
"As someone who has been diagnosed with bipolar and ADHD, I am fully aware of how challenging this can be and the aim is for the rally to raise awareness of the condition and the incredible work Bipolar UK do.
“It’s fantastic to have Falken, their tyre dealers and their customers supporting the rally. I’m looking forward to dropping in and thanking them personally for their support and throwing a few legs of darts with those involved.”
