Story

Thanks for stopping by our JustGiving page! 🎉

Yes, we know what you're thinking - we MUST BE BONKERS!! 🤪 But when we decided to embark on our first (and only) Bangers Rally in a £600 StreetKA Convertible, transformed into the magnificent Fire Engine "Denise" 🚒, and dressed in our very own authentic Fire Fighter Kit, we said to each other, "Let's do this to raise some funds for two charities close to our hearts..."

About the rally... 🚗💨

An epic adventure over 5 days, taking us through some of the most authentic eastern European destinations possible. 🌍

It’s a long route:

• St Quentin to Freiberg, Germany (320 Miles) 🛣️

• Freiberg to Salzburg, Austria (350 Miles) 🏔️

• Salzburg to Budapest (340 Miles) 🏰

• Budapest to Sebes/Sibiu, Romania (325 Miles) 🏞️

• Sibiu via Transfagarasan Highway to Bucharest (225 Miles) 🛤️

Across rough roads, real border crossings, and places folks say to stay away from! 😱 It is the Two Ball Rally Romanian Route.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and totally secure going directly to the charity, it’s the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity. 💸

MAB Foundation will be halving the amount raised and sending to The Firefighters Charity at the end of the event on our behalf.
