My friend Richard and I are going to take part in the Screwball Rally 2024, raising funds for Alzheimer's Society (in memory of my mum) and Cancer Research UK.
I'd be
extremely grateful if you could share this link with anyone you can and spread the word around.
https://www.justgiving.com/team/screwba ... aris-dakar
If you visit either one of our individual pages under that team link, you'll see lots of photos and see the work going in to transform "Bertie the Berlingo" into a desert rally "Land Rover". There's going to be more updates as things progress so people can follow the developments.
Thank you.

I've just added a couple of direct links to our individual pages where you can see the pics so far to make it a little easier to get to see.

I'm not a big fan of the JustGiving website layout structure, but if you go onto either of the individual fundraising pages and click through lots of "See more" and "Continue reading" options, and scroll a lot, you can see more of the transformation progress.

They built that (among other relay sites) to help me, so I certainly think so.
