Hello Everyone,

Thank you for visiting our 'Italian Job 2006' fundraising page.....

Let me explain about the event...

The Italian Job is a combination of two core elements which attract so much attention from the press and public alike. Firstly, the Mini: the endearing little car and secondly there is the charity element and fundraising aims of the Italian Job. Combined, they are a formidable force capable of generating great affection and widespread media attention.

We drive through number of Italy's and Europe's most fantastic cities such as Turin, where we go for a spin on the famous Lingotto Roof top test track used in the film. Imola, you might have heard of it, they have a race or two there each year! Imola is a fabulous little city smack bang in the heart of the Italian Region of Emilia Romagna.  From our base at the hotel Molino Rosso, we explore beautiful cities such as Bologna, Modena, Ferrara, drive well off the beaten track (no motorways for us), over medieval bridges, through tiny villages, and even onto the F1 Grand Prix circuit!

This will be an amazing experience for us but not a walk in the park... 10 days of driving roughly 3500 miles in a 20 year old classic Mini.... not everyones idea of fun, but lets not forget why were doing this......

By supporting NCH we are helping to ensure a much brighter future for children who, through no fault of their own, are in need of help and support.  The NCH runs over 480 projects throughout England, Scotland and Wales. Additionally NCH invest 90% of their proceeds into actual children's services and with the added bonus of matching agreements with other sources they are able to convert every single pound donated into FIVE Pounds.

So lets go, join us and help us move ever closer to our target of £1500.00 

Please dig deep and sponsor us online.


Many thanks for your support it is greatly appreciated.
