HELP FOR HEROES 4x4 EUROPEAN RALLY - June 19th-29th 2010 (http://www.h4hrally.co.uk)

The HELP FOR HEROES 4x4 EUROPEAN RALLY 2010 will start at Noon on Saturday 19th June 2010 at a secret location in North Wiltshire. After using byways on Salisbury Plain we will all go to Portsmouth to embark on the ferry over to France. It will be a 1650 mile/2640 km expedition encompassing 6 countries in 10 days, this non-speed event comprising a maximum of 30+ teams will be part history tour, fun competition, part off-road driving and part club-type social, open to all types of 4x4 vehicles. The money raised by teams will be donated to our chosen charity, HELP FOR HEROES (http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk).

The HELP FOR HEROES 4x4 EUROPEAN RALLY 2010 follows the path and tells the story of the Allied Invasion through Europe and includes parts fabled by the Band of Brothers book and television series. As young men, who knew extraordinary bravery and extraordinary fear, the Allied Forces landed in France early on D-Day morning – 6th June 1944.

The liberation of Europe had commenced.

Just a quick update - due to places started to fill up, and also having an immense amount of interest in the H4H 4x4 Rally, we are happy to announce that we are upping the limit of entrants to 40 vehicles/teams (entrants after that will go on to a reserve list). Please remember that the places available are based on a 'first come, first served' basis

Following the success of the inaugural event in 2010, which raised an amazing amount of £121,704.49 for the charity we can now announce that the HELP for HEROES 4x4 European Rally is back for 2011. Places are filling up quickly, so if you would like to take part or would like to find out more please visit the official website – http://www.h4hrally.co.uk

The dates for the 2012 Help for Heroes 4x4 European Rally are 16th-28th June.

We raised £121,000 for H4H in 2010 and an amazing £160,000 in 2011 - we hope to better the £160k in 2012.

The route follows the 1944/5 Allied Invasion route through Europe (Salisbury Plain, Normandy, Arnhem, Bastogne, Dachau and ends at the Eagles Nest in Bavaria). We also include elements of WW1 - The Somme & Ypres.

It is NOT a race, it is a fun but historical tour - 45 4x4s take part - and last year 10 children were with us as the event is suitable for families.

Entry form & details can be found at www.h4hrally.co.uk. Come and join us.
