Owners Help Needed!
Discussion
Okay everyone here’s the deal!!
For the charity Childrens Hospice South West (www.chsw.org.uk) we need between 20-40 sports / super cars for 3 reasons.
On Saturday 4th of Oct 2008 we would like to gather these cars for a drive though the grounds of the hospice near Barnstaple in North Devon (EX31 2PZ) so that the children can see them, and those who are able to have a sit in and photo taken with the cars, also their parents and siblings.
Then the convoy will move on a couple of miles down the road and park up on Barnstaple town square, which will be quite a sight!
We are looking then to raise money in three ways. A ten-minute ride in one of the cars for a donation to the Hospice (prices to be agreed with car owners), a photo sat in the car of choice, and good old bucket shaking.
Ideally we would like the usual marques, Ferrari, Lambo, TVR, Noble, etc etc, and as many as poss.
It will also serve as a wonderful marketing opportunity for the hospice attracting TV, radio and press.
Also if any car related or relevant business would like to have a presence or dealer would like to bring some demo cars along I am sure we could work something out.
One last avenue of fund raising would be an auction of car related goods / services, so again if any of you good people have any ideas for this I would be most grateful.
I hope you agree it is a very worthy charity, and I do hope you will be able to help.
Thanks for reading this I hope you get your offers in soon.
Thanks

Thanks for the heads up on the insurence, I have looked into this prior to setting the event up.
As it will be on a public road, as long as the rides are for donation and not "paid for", and both the driver and passenger are happy to sign for this then normal 3rd party cover covers it, have taken advice from Dream Rides who have been doing this for 15 years.
cheers!
