Story
In 2018, two hapless muppets are attempting to complete the Mongol Rally. The Rally is a charity mission to drive a small unsuitable car from the UK to Ulan-Ude in Russia (via Ulaabaatar in Mongolia) without support. We will be attempting it in a clapped out but loved 1980's Austin Maestro 1.2 plumber's van (called Delilah) over 10000 miles with only our bare cunning, duck tape, guile, 80's ever reliable British Leyland tech and the support of any helpful locals we meet along the way to get us there.
The rally is not just about the call of the horizon and adventure but also charity. We have chosen four charities close to our hearts to support and raise money for throughout our journey;
Cool Earth - An experimental NGO that works alongside rainforest communities to halt rainforest destruction and climate change.
Prostate Cancer UK - A charity with the simple but huge aim to stop men dying of prostate cancer.
Women's Aid - RCT - Breaking the cycle of violence and abuse by providing services and shelter within the community
MS Society - A community of people living with MS, scientists, campaigners, volunteers and fundraisers.
Please donate and help us reach our goal!

6 years agoHello, we're still reeling from having it made the long journey back in 10 days but now we're back on UK soil the job of passing you're incredible and generous donations on to the charities is our next mission. Thank you seems such an insignificant phrase to express the gratitude, wonder and love to everyone of our donors. Driving there and back again seems like an action unworthy of such generosity but thank you a thousand times for your generosity.
