Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Round Britain Reliability Run (RBRR) 7-9 October 2016 is run by Club Triumph & takes place every 2 years, each time raising funds for different charities. This year Guide Dogs for the Blind is the selected charity. I have had a long association with this charity as we used to walk Guide Dog puppies when I was a child.

The Run is from London to John o' Groats to Land's End & back to London in just 48 hours covering over 2000 miles. This tests the car's reliability as well as the crews stamina & resourcefulness.

This year will be the 50th anniversary of the event (1966-2016) & nearly 150 vehicles will be taking part, the most ever in the history of the event. It will also be the first time I have  taken part. The car is a 1957 TR3, one of the oldest cars on the Run this year.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

The ability to get around is vital in order to live a full life yet thousands of people with sight loss never leave home alone. We empower visually impaired people to do that and rely on the support of the public to fund the guide dog service.
