KEYLINE MONTE CARLO CHARITY CHALLENGE · 24 June 2010

Prostate Cancer UK has a simple ambition - to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and support, we will stop prostate cancer being a killer.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Keyline has chosen the Prostate Cancer Charity to raise awareness of this disease, as we work in a male dominated industry. Keyline has a number of events thoughout the year to raise as much money as we can for this Charity.

The Keyline challenge that we have entered aims to get 20 cars 2 support vehicles and 44 people to Monte Carlo and back within 4 days.

This is no holiday? With no sat navs - no motorways just good old fashioned map reading and a number of tasks to complete on the way, as well as sleeping in a two man tent, this is certainly a challenge to complete in 96 hours.

The Keyline Kingswinfords entry is a 2003 Mazda MX5 soft top which I've managed to prise of my wife for the 4 days.

My co-driver is Ian Howard from one of our main suppliers Wavin Plastics, who I have only met once. So I hope he is good at map reading, pitching tents and doesn't mind a bit of snoring, we should get on like a house on fire?

Our target from Kingswinford is to raise £1500.00 but we hope to raise a lot more.

We want to make the car look the part for the rally so we have designed a magnetic sign to advertise your company/your name onto.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

We appreciate there are lots of good causes and calls on your hard earned money but we would really appreciate what every you can donate.

Many Thanks

Mark & Ian.
