Construction charity to take part in car run

Construction industry charity the Lighthouse Club wants people to take part in the John O’ Groats to Lands End Car Run from 15 to 17 October 2016.

This year is the 60th anniversary of the charity which helps to raise money for individuals or families of those within the construction industry who are unable to work through accident, illness or injury.

It has been two years since avid car fans and navigators hit the road from John O’ Groats to Land’s End in aid of the Lighthouse Club and the charity is now looking for more people to join in this year.

Setting out from John O’Groats the drive will take you through some of the most beautiful and spectacular scenery in Britain, through Loch Ness and then down to the Lake District. The next day will take you through Wales and the West Country to Land’s End. This is not a race or a competition, the emphasis is very much on having fun with like-minded people. You will need to use your wits to navigate to various checkpoints on the designated route and rule number one is no Sat Navs! The car with the least recorded mileage at the end of the run is the winner and there’s lots of other fun prizes as well.
