My Story

Throughout the summer we held numerous Football themed fundraising activities which led us up nicely to our main event... The Bangers 4 Ben 2024 rally...
 
First up was our Penalty Shoot Out competition held at our HO in Stockport. Many, many, many saves were made by Tom & Theo and only a couple of goals were scored🤥 A massive well done to Callum who won the top scorer trophy!
 
Then we asked all of you to compete in the Keepy Uppy Challenge, a massive well done to Rash from Vicarage Car Sales for recording the most keepys uppys!
 
Next, Tom & Theo along with the support of Luke, Adam, and Matt met up in Llanberis to CONQUER SNOWDON! The boys completed the challenge but not without a few hickups along the way... We can only assume that Tom suffered from altitude sickness? or simply too many sweets? but that didnt stop him and the boys from reaching the top!
 
Finally our main event... the Bangers4Ben Rally. The starting point was Stockport so on Friday 4th October the boys set off on their mammoth journey to France, then drove on to Switzerland, then on to Germany, then through Belgium, back into France then back home.
Over 2000 miles completed in 5 days!!!
 
Thank you so much to all of our donors and supporters, all of our fellow Rally drivers, the Ben team, the AA legends that looked after us every mile of the way, and especially to Kelly and all at Automotion for organising everything, the teams at Trust'd Motors for supplying us with a simply brilliant car, and finally to all at DSG for cheering us on and enabling us to experience the trip of a lifetime. 
 
We have had an absolute ball!
