Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our Justgiving Page!
Me and my colleague Rod Barcroft are going to be travelling across 4 Countries and 1500 miles, in just 4 days! We have also made the mistake of attempting this on sportbikes - Rod on his beautiful low mileage Honda Blackbird, and Me on a ridiculous Ducati 749! With nothing but a backpack and our crotch-rockets we will be travelling through France, Italy, Austria and Switzerland - Finishing up on what could be the best driving road in the world - The Stelvio Pass, before turning back and making the journey back to be in work for Tuesday! While completing this epic journey we will be documenting and uploading all the goings on to keep everyone back home involved, And also raising money for BEN, the Automotive Industry Charity.
Caring for automotive people, and their dependants, in times of need.
BEN exists to provide care, support and advice to those in our industries who need our help in times of hardship or distress.
They provide a wide range of different types of support depending on your, or your loved ones’, situation. This could mean helping with the cost of specialist disabled equipment for your child, giving you emotional support through an illness or funding a respite break for you and your partner. We will help in whatever way we can. Find out how BEN has helped others.
BEN also have four residential centres around the country, offering a range of services from nursing to end of life care. In addition, BEN owns and runs the UK’s first workplace day care centre, based in Coventry. Each of the centres provides high quality care so that we can continue to look after older people in our communities. A number of our centres also offer sheltered accommodation. Find out more about BEN’s centres.
