My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

On 14th November 2008 three intrepid teams took part in the "Great London Underground Tube Challenge" attempting to visit all 270 stations in the fastest possible time. The teams, including past and present Guinness World Record (TM) holders, battled it out for Children in Need and a possible new world record. The teams finished in the following times:

Ken's Rocking Red Party (3rd Place 18h15m00s)
Andi James, Sara Wearn and Martin Hazel

Boris's Blazing Blue Party (=1st Place 17h41m43s)
Antony, Jamie, Kevin, Phil & Ryan Brown and Matt Scrivin

Pudsey Pasty Power Party (=1st Place 17h41m43s)
Damian & Matthew Cook

Get behind your favourite team and back them all the way in the battle for supremacy in this Race Around London. Please give generously, you can either sponsor a lump sum or an amount per station visited (there are 270 stations). 

For the official website for Tube Challenge 08 click here and if you would like to find out more about the sport of Tube Challenge please click here   

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BBC Children in Need gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor a team now!
