Wilson Jr to take part in RAF Charity festival.

Britain's Matthew Wilson and the Stobart Motorsport team will attend a two-day charity event at the Royal Air Force Leuchars base in Scotland next week.

The Firebird Invitational 2007 is being held over 23-24 April and is hoping to raise much-needed money for the RAF Benevolent Fund and The Prince's Trust.

Corporate businesses have donated money to take part in this charity event and Wilson Jr's involvement will include taking these lucky participants for a three mile blast around a specially designed track at the RAF base in his Stobart Ford Focus RS06 World Rally Car.

The Cumbrian-based lad and his Stobart team will be on-hand to help the RAF achieve their goal of raising over ?100,000 for these two charities.

"It is fantastic for myself and Stobart Motorsport to be involved with the Firebird Invitational and especially when I'm helping to raise money for these two main charities," said the 19-year-old.

"The RAF, and all the armed forces in the UK, have an enormous responsibility and it's always good to be able to give something back; the Squadron at RAF Leuchars have put a lot of effort into this event and I know it will be a real success for them.

"I'm heading off to the next WRC round in Argentina a few days after the Firebird Invitational so, for me, it will also be good to have some more time in this fantastic car."
