700 miles, 4 days, a £500 car. Sounds easy!

This May Day Bank Holiday weekend, we are heading out for a "little" drive to support a fantastic charity.

Fairy Bricks do amazing work, and their objective is so simple:

"We donate LEGO to hospitals and hospices to brighten the lives of sick children."

 

The Challenge:

I'm Andy, and I live in Somerset. Jason lives in Devon. We have been friends since childhood.

We will be taking part in the TBR700 Banger Rally, driving 700 miles in 4 days around Scotland.

Sounds easy enough, but the challenge lies in the fact that our budget for buying a car was £567!

We didn't quite spend that much to acquire the mighty 2002 Peugeot 206 that will be carrying us on this adventure, so we have a few quid to get it ready.

 

700 miles is a lot, but the rally also starts in Perth, Scotland. The starting line is already 510 miles from Jason's home in Devon, so the total trip will be another 1,000 miles or thereabouts, on top of the 700.

 

There will be daily challenges along the route, set by the event organisers.

 

Our aim is to raise as much money as possible, helping Fairy Bricks to reach even more children in the future. Anything you can donate will help.
