Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving Page.

On the 28th April 2025, Harry Baker and Jordan Slack will be taking on a 2 week challenge to drive an old Rover 75 3500 miles across Europe.

This challenge will be part of the Benidorm or Bust rally. Over the 2 weeks we will complete over 55 hours of driving through 10 different countries.

We have chosen to do this to raise money for 2 charities that are very close to our hearts.

We have chose Macmillan in memory of Jordans mum, Sharon Slack (Shaz), who sadly passed in 2011. Macmillan provided Sharon and all her family with a wonderful amount of support throughout her battle with cancer. Sharon was the most supportive and loving wife, mum and Nana. She battled with breast cancer twice over a two year period while still being full of life. Even coming to rugby matches straight after treatment. She is still loved by all her family and relatives who will all have fond memories with them. We've chosen an old Rover as a homage to her old one (P88KEW).

We also chose Huntingtons Disease Association (HDA) to help raise money to find a cure for this awful disease. Huntington's is a life limiting, genetic disorder that causes the breakdown of nerve cells in the brain.

Harry's uncle, Rob, was diagnosed with Huntington's in 2016 at only 50 years of age. He can no longer work and drive which has impacted his independence and mental well being. Huntingtons disease affects people in many ways such as movement disorders, cognitive conditions and mental health conditions. There is currently no cure for this disease and we hope to raise some money to help fund research. If you haven't heard of Huntington's or would like to know more, please visit the HDA website.

Thanks for taking the time to read our page. Any donations small or large will be greatly appreciated. Any donations will be evenly split between the 2 charities. All our progress can be tracked on @bxker98 on TikTok.
