Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page in support of Hope House children's hospices.

Our fund-raiser is pretty simple! we will be joining a ragged convoy of 24 'rust box' old cars (but all road legal) most of which have been bought for £750 or less! Starting on Saturday 26th September we head across the Channel into Europe, visiting seven countries in the space of a week. The trip will be over a thousand miles long, and during the rally the organisers will present us with daily challenges to complete, culminating in the iconic mountain drive of the Stelvio Pass (over 9000 feet) in the Italian Alps as featured on Top Gear a few years ago. Our route will take us through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Germany, Switzerland and Italy.

This of course is a fun thing for us to do and we are simply asking you for a modest donation of your choice to this very worthy cause. We have been supporting Hope House children's hospice for over fifteen years and please take a quick look at the amazing work that they do. We will keep you posted on our progress. Clearly there are going to be breakdowns!
