Story

The Dumball rally has been going for over a decade now and has raised in excess of £800,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust.

So, what is Dumball? Well, we take about 50 old, barely roadworthy, cars and give them one last epic journey. This year we're driving from Margate to Corfu... in eight days. All for a fantastic cause.

I have been lucky enough that I haven't required the services of Teenage Cancer Trust, but having done a couple of Dumballs before, I have met a number of people who have. If you don't already know what they do, I strongly recommend reading up on them here: https://www.teenagecancertrust.org/about-us

They offer much needed assistance to young people diagnosed with Cancer. In their own words: "We know that having cancer at a young age comes with its own particular set of challenges. Our services put the needs of young people first and allow them to face those challenges together."

We're taking a 1999 Cadillac STS, dressing it up like a Presidential Limo, and taking it for one final spin across Europe. We'll travel through France, Switzerland, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania and Greece. All in fancy dress. The 45th President might even make an appearance, who knows?
