This summer our four intrepid explorers (Joel, Stew, Martin and Jesse) will be embarking upon the Sucata Run, the motoring equivalent of a four day endurance assault course with the aim of raising £1000 for charity!

You might think all of this would be easy, but not when this assault course takes the form of a daringly dangerous 1200 mile jaunt from London to Lisbon through some of the most feared rural backlanes, the most isolated desert wildernesses and the most precipice-edged mountain passes in Europe!!

You still might be thinking that all of this may be easy but you haven't reckoned on the fact that all of this has to be undertaken in a vehicle costing no more than 250 of your English pounds!!!

We're doing all of this to raise money for Gemin-i, a very worthy cause that runs educational programmes for children in Africa. We are paying for the car and travel costs ourselves so that all of your donation goes directly to the charity. So please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. Gemin-i will receive your money quickly and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now and many thanks for your support!
