CHRISTMAS CAR EVENTS
For those of you looking for something relating to VWs and Classic Cars this Christmas, here are some events that may be of interest:
SANTA RUN
27th November
Beaulieu National Motor Museum – Brockenhurst, Hampshire, SO42 7ZN
Its back for its 4th year. The Santa Run is a charity event for classic and custom Volkswagens to take toys and gifts, raise money and awareness for the Piam Brown unit at Southampton General Hospital.
The Piam Brown Unit is an Oncology unit which cares for children from birth to 18 with cancer and is reliant totally on charity to continue its unbelievable work
While the emphasis is aimed at the Piam Brown unit, your amazing generosity in previous years has meant that all the kids in the other children’s wards got presents too.
We will meet in the main arena at the Beaulieu motor museum for breakfast and a mooch around the museum (All free for Santa Run participants) before leaving for the best cruise of the year to the hospital to deliver all the wonderful presents.
