Reliant Robin Repatriation - Bring our hero home

Aim

We would very much like to bring 'Thunderball' our Robin Reliant home for Christmas completing the repairs for her 2024 Rally around the UK

Our valiant Reliant Robin 'Thunderball' battled against all odds, and some disbelief, by delivering us safely to the 2023 Veterans Banger Rally finish line in Gibraltar in one piece. Winning 2nd place for pure audacity in completing the 2,300km.

Sadly, once she had achieved her goal, she gave up the fight and didn't make it back home with us.

We would very much like to bring our girl home so that we can make repairs in preparation for the 2024 Rally which will take place in September and what's even more exciting next year it will be held across the UK.

The 2023 Rally was a massive success thanks to all our supporters who raised over £4117 for Guitars for Veterans, promoting the important work we do in communities across Wales, raising our profile and letting people know where we are and how they can link up with us. 

The 2023 Rally of thirty different teams, as a combined effort raised over £25,000 for veterans charities including Blind Veterans UK and Cancer Relief Gibraltar.

But now we need your help again! we would love to run Thunderball in 2024. 

To do that we need to bring our little hero home! 

Step 1: Tow our heroic Lady from Gibraltar to Calais... SITAR trailers of Cardiff have offered free use of a transporter trailer and the AA are helping to part fund her repatriation. We need to take the trailer from Calais down to Gibraltar to tow her home as the Bay of Biscay is closed to ferries in the winter.

Step 2: Once she is home... she will need a bit of TLC to get her running again and to be ready for Septembers 2024 UK Rally.

This is where you come in... our fantastic pit crew we need your help to raise £1000 to cover the extra costs of the journey home and the parts we need to get our girl going again.

More than just a car (but don't tell her I said that!!!) ... The G4V project is currently supporting over 500 Veterans and their families across Wales. Helping them to find their purpose, to help them become visible in their communities, to learn a new skill, build up their confidence and self esteem. To help them become as reliable as our little Robin.

Can you spare just a pound or two to help to bring our little hero home?
