Ed Clarke is raising money for LandAid
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Africa Rally · 31 August 2026

LandAid is the property industry charity, working to end youth homelessness in the UK. We bring the property industry together to support charities delivering life-changing services for young people who are or have been homeless, or who are at risk of homelessness in the future.

Story

Hey, we are Suzie and Ed, and we have decided the best way to cross the majority of a continent is in the least suitable vehicle possible; a 30 year old London taxi. Yes, the same kind that complains about speed bumps and thinks the M25 is an adventure. We have entered the Africa Rally armed with a questionable sense of direction, an even more questionable cab, and a deep belief that suspension is overrated. Expect dust, dodgy detours, and dramatic monologues from the back seat—because if you’re going to break down in the Serengeti, you might as well do it with style and a “Taxi for Africa” sign. Follow along for chaos, comedy, and the slowest rally progress in history.

We wanted to do something on message for the London Black Cab theme - hence the Land Aid charity, which is the chosen charity of our great friends and colleages at the Luxury Property Forum.

It is unknown how many young people experience homelessness each year in the UK, but nearly 136,000 young people approached their local council for help as a result of homelessness in 2022/23. There are likely thousands more hidden homeless, choosing to sofa-surf, sleep on public transport or present to charities, rather than presenting to their local authorities.

It doesn't have to be this way and is a challenge LandAid exists to solve; with your support we can help put a stop to youth homelessness.
