Gentlefolk, mark your calendars — the Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive returns to Gaydon this September, bringing classic motoring, sharp style, and a shared purpose together once again.

This year’s drive promises an incredible lineup of vintage and classic cars, timeless fashion, and a community united in support of men’s health. It’s always a standout event, and 2026 is shaping up to be the most elegant drive yet.

I’ll be on location capturing the atmosphere, the details, and the stories behind the machines and the people who cherish them. If you’re attending, keep an eye out — portraits and coverage will be available after the event.

Join the movement. Dress dapper. Drive with purpose.

The 2026 Distinguished Gentleman's Drive is Live!

Register now to drive dapper for men's health on Sunday the 27th of September in the world's biggest and most stylish on-road charity motoring event!

Protect Creators’ Rights — Your Voice Matters

As AI continues to evolve, so does the need for transparency and fairness. Creators across the UK are calling for legislation that requires AI firms to disclose the copyrighted works used to train their models. Without this, photographers, artists, writers, and all creative professionals have no way of knowing whether their work has been used without permission.

This petition asks the government to introduce clear rules so creators can verify use, ensure fair licensing, and protect the value of their craft.

If you believe in safeguarding creative rights and building a fair future for AI development, please take a moment to read and sign the petition.

Let’s stand together for transparency, accountability, and respect for creative work.
🧡 Sign before 29 October 2026.
Petition: Protect creators' rights: require AI firms to disclose training data

We ask the Government to introduce a statutory duty requiring AI developers to disclose the copyrighted works used to train generative AI in enough detail for creators to identify use of their work, enforce their rights, negotiate licences and be fairly paid.
