Mongolia Mercedes Sprinter Ambulance Charity Rally

This summer as part of the 2011 Mongol Rally, Team ‘Things Can Only Get Bataar’ are driving to Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, to raise money for three charities - Cancer Research UK, Christina Noble Children’s Foundation and Help for Heroes.

Driving the 10,000 miles from the UK to Mongolia is a challenge within itself, however the team have decided to make things a little bit harder by driving the journey in a Mercedes Sprinter ambulance, which will then be gifted to a Mongolian hospital at the end of the rally. 

In collaboration with LUK, we are supporting this amazing challenge and have donated a number of tools and accessories that will be taken on the rally including pliers, spanners, screwdrivers, wrenches, gloves, goggles and tape to name but a few – all vital items that will be required in the service and maintenance of the ambulance throughout the journey. 

The rally begins on the 23rd July and will see the team visit a number of countries along the way that include France, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine and Russia before they reach their destination of Mongolia. We will provide updates from the team and keep track of their progress as they embark on an adventure of a lifetime – all in aid of charity. 

If you would like to support the team of youngsters – visit their website: http://www.malvern2mongolia.co.uk/  and see how you can help.
