Martin Cosser, Elliot Watts and myself are attempting to complete a harsh, rugged drive around the North Coast 500 route navigating the coastline of Scotland in a 'Rustbox' of a vehicle. We are joining an organised team called Rustbox Rallies, and the challenge is to use a vehicle of a value worth no more than £700. We have decided to use that budget to revive a vehicle which was destined for the scrapyard and decorate it in Charlie's Promise branding and logo's so as to spread the word of the essential message that this charity delivers to our current and future generations.

Martin is the father of Charlie, who he lost through the devastating impact of knife crime. Martin works tirelessly delivering talks to schools, youth groups, parents, teachers, prisons and many more. His tailored talks are making an important mark on society in educating people from every walk of life, teaching them the awareness, the dangers, the impacts and the lasting effects of knife crime.

Along this event Martin will also be delivering two of his talks in the North of England. All we ask is that you support our journey, as we limp this vehicle around the country, and donate if you can to help Charlie's Promise in continuing to spread awareness, and stop this country's pandemic of knife crime. Lives need not be lost to these preventable actions anymore!
