Rust Bucket Rally 2019 · 7 June 2019

A childs funeral, is rarely planned for far in advance. Many funeral professionals will offer reduced fees or services free of charge, but there are still some unavoidable expenses. Here at Children Are Butterflies we offer some assistance with those remaining fees by way of capped funeral grants.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are setting off on another rally around Europe in Darren's trusty MR2!  Its 9 countries and 2,500 miles.  Once again we will be doing the whole thing with the roof down come rain, shine or snow!!!   We are doing this as part of the amazing RUST BUCKET RALLY, who have raised some serious money over the years.  This year the whole rally are raising money for CHILDREN ARE BUTTERFLIES.  Please read the summary on this amazing cause, here in our home county of Northatns:

Children Are Butterflies work for the public benefit to relieve some of the burden to families in times of emotional and financial hardship following the death of a child.

Our principal objectives are:

  1. The provision of financial relief to families in the UK who are in the unfortunate position of having to organise the funeral of a child. This relief comes in the form of Funeral Disbursements Grants.
  2. Promotion of the Charity and the work we do, to increase the awareness and understanding of the plight that bereaved families find themselves in, particularly to Funeral and Health Professionals.
  3. To build a “Butterfly Community” and encourage mutual support through frank and open discussion between families with similar experiences, in a safe and welcoming environment.

Darren and Simon both appreciate that its only been a couple of years since we last asked for support on our jaunts around Europe, however this is a great cause and we would be so grateful if you could help to support us once again.
