John O Groats to Land's End Charity Run
1st August 2009

3 Counties MG will be trying to raise as much money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation^® UK in a sponsored drive from John O Groats to Land's End. This is no ordinary drive though, 3 MG cars will be taking part, in driving the route together. Sounds easy doesn't it? Well we are doing the 874 mile drive in under 24 hours, and it is estimated that the minimum drive time is just over 16 hours non stop driving. Couple this together with maybe one of the busiest holiday times and this will make our task all the harder.
It does not finish at Land's End though, on the second day we will then leave Land's End on route for MG Fest 09 at the Motor Heritage Centre in Gaydon, Warwickshire which is one of the largest MG festivals in the UK.
Why Make-A-Wish? Many children each year are diagnosed with life threatening illnesses across the whole country, and Make-A-Wish provide the chance to make a wish come true for these children by allowing them to do something they would like to do before becoming too ill to do it. I guess most of us are lucky in life that we have the benefit of many years to try and make our wishes come true, unfortunately all the children Make-A-Wish grant wishes to may not have been fortunate enough to have had the time nor have the time to make their wishes come true.
 

By sponsoring us either at an event, or online through the Just Giving website you will make a wish come true for a child who has a life threatening illness. No matter how small or large your donation is, it will make a difference to a child in the UK.
