Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

2014 sees the 25th running of The Italian Job Rally, a 3000 mile event that takes place in October. The run combines serious fundraising for a very worthy cause, with fun driving through stunning scenery. Anyone can take part, so long as you drive a car that was featured in the 1969 classic film starring Michael Caine (also known as the best film ever made:)

Our team is ‘Kings on the Run’, comprising Stephen and Pat King. We have wanted to take part in the Italian Job for many years. We will be competing in our 1971 classic Rally Mini, which Stephen is currently rebuilding from scratch! As with all Minis, it's a small car with a big character.   

We hope to raise as much money as possible for Variety,  a charity that provides so much for sick, disabled or disadvantaged children. Variety sunshine coaches and electric wheelchairs offer a real lifeline to those that need it most. Your donation will help us to help them, and please follow our journey to build and drive our little car on a big adventure. We will be paying for all of our own costs, so every penny raised will go to a good cause and our target is £2000. https://www.justgiving.com/kingsontherun

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
