Story

Early this year we decided that it would be a really good idea to drive 10,000 in a small 1.2 litre car from London to Mongolia. We have chosen to do the Southern Route via Iran and Central Asia (the full route can be seen here http://5camels1chameleon.wordpress.com/where/) and to make it a proper challenge we have allowed ourselves 5 weeks to complete it whereas it normally takes 6 weeks! This is going to be an adventure of a lifetime and to make it even more special we are raising money for a really important charity, Chance UK.

Chance UK’s mission it to improve the lives of primary school children with behavioural difficulties who are at risk of developing anti-social or criminal behaviour in the future. They do this by providing tailored one-to-one mentoring with a carefully  screened, trained and supervised volunteer mentor. Their mentors raise children's self-esteem via activities such as sports, visiting museums, making scrapbooks...anything the child may be interested in.

So please support both Chance UK and us by donating what you can

If you wish to donate by text, text CAME55 £X to 70070.

Thank you,

Ash, Henry, Will
