TUESDAY 11th JULY TO SATURDAY 15th JULY 2017

Hi, 

Thanks very much for taking the time to visit my justgiving page, in July this year I will be taking on this mammoth task with some friends of mine Stuart Delf and Lewis Bates after being inspired by the work of my friend Luke Claxton as we all continue to try and help him raise a Quarter of a million pounds for CLIC Sargent. A wonderful charity helping young people and their families suffering from cancer in the UK. Luke set up the Veronica Claxton Memorial Fund in 2009 after losing him mum to cancer, I've really enjoyed joining him on various events and challenges which have seen the VCMF raise over £200,000 for some great charities. The current mission is to raise £250,000 for CLIC alone. As I type we are so close to halfway in little over 2 years. 

So please join us for what should be an exhilarating 150 miles of walking over 5 days, starting at McLaren F1 and stopping off at all the F1 teams in England, with the chequered flag at Silverstone Circuit on British Grand Prix weekend. This event is open to anyone and you can do as much or as little as you like to help us raise funds for this great charity. 

For more information or to put your name down for a day or two or even all 5! Dont hesitate to contact me on mark-nicholson@live.co.uk

Thanks very much for your time
