Glossop Round Table are entering Coventry Round Table's Coast to Coast Skinflint Rally 2021 to raise £5,000 for Glossop Age Concern.

The challenge is to buy a car for under £500 and drive the North Coast 500 from Whitehaven to Newcastle via the Scottish Highlands.

It's not a race, it's just for fun, and to raise much-needed funds for local causes up and down the UK.

Glossop Round Table have supported the invaluable service that Glossop Age Concern provide to the elderly in the community.

"They are a local charity, not affiliated with Age UK, and their personal touch with these vulnerable adults in our community is so heartwarming," a Round Table spokesperson said. 

"Please support our fundraising efforts generously - 100 per cent of monies donated will reach Glossop Age Concern for them to use in the way that they know best, to help those that need support." 

You can donate via the Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/glossoprt-skinflintrally.
