My story

 
Barcelona Bangers 21st to 24th May 2009

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

Chris Nelson and Paul Coward of Salford GIS Limited are embarking on a "challenge" and are hoping that you will help them to raise at least £3,000 for the charity MapAction by supporting their drive to Barcelona.

Does this sound like too much fun? Then what about doing it in a car worth less than £200?

Chris and Paul have entered this year's Barcelona Banger Run, alongside 59 other teams. Breakdowns permitting, the run is expected to take a total of four days.

We're doing it all for a great charity, MapAction, who deliver information that saves lives and livelihoods. You can find out much more about them by visiting their site or watching the video <---- here.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor Chris and Paul; MapAction gets your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid plus a 3% supplement are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now.....and don't forget to follow our progress on our blog as we prepare our "Beemer Banger" and take part in the Barcelona Banger Run.

Thank you, on behalf of Salford GIS and MapAction.
