Giving Something Back 29th July 2018.

Help 4 Heros Tedworth House, Tidworth, Wiltshire.

OK Folks, Further to my other post which I will link now to this one. The date is Sunday 29th July 2018, the venue will be Tedworth House, Tidworth, Wiltshire.

Family day for the Ex forces who have given us so much. In return we give our time for a day. One site BBQ and some music. Small groups will drive out with a passenger from Tedworth House for a short run through the countryside to make them laugh and enjoy the BMW Zed experience. Its a small ask for you to drive an ex service person around the countryside for a lovely run. The routes will be posted later and will be a choice of two or three so you can return and maybe go again if you feel like it.

The BBQ will be free for all those running about in the zeds but I am proposing a donation of say £3 a head to help out if that is acceptable with everybody. The centre is amazing and having just had a tour, the facilities are world class from indoor ski slopes to gyms and music rooms all to help rehabilitate the wounded. I am sure you will appreciate what these people do.

A question has been raised regarding insurance liabilities and passengers, as we are not doing it for hire or reward I can not see an issue on my own insurance but I would suggest you check yours to make sure the small print is not an issue.

We will be parking on the inner area of Tedworth House and the venue is an ex forces officers mess. A great day will be had. I hope to run a raffle on the day and I am looking for some little things to give away. Will contact BMW and see what can be sourced. All money raised will go to Help 4 Heros.

Please state if you will be bringing a passenger too as they can enjoy the BBQ and music and also head out if you want to do a few laps, so to speak.

This is where the Zeds will be parking.

These are just to give you an idea about the kind of routes that are available around the area. All about the same distance.

They will be confirmed once I have driven all three and made sure that the routes are suitable.

 

[pgunter]

This is one of the projects that they recently completed. A traditional round house made with primitive tooling. No power tools or hand tools apart from what the stoneage people would have had. An amazing achievement.

 

[TaffDaddy]

Put myself and Nicola down for it please Paul.

David

 

[Bazza]

Paul put me and Jan down please.

 

[Jack Daw]

Paul please add Jean and I to your list ,

 

[mwpe]

I am up for it, no passenger.

 

[DaveP]

Hi Paul,
I am up for it. But will be in a Zed turned into a Kobra - am I still ok to come ?
Also if you want larger numbers I could ask other Zed kit owners on another forum. But only if that is seen as a good idea closer to the time. There are some wicked Fezza look-alikes about based upon Zeds.

Anyway in the meantime if my car is ok I am more than happy to join in. And will check in with whether management wants to come.
Dave

 

[pgunter]

@DaveP you are most welcome to join us. It’s about having a great day and putting smiles on faces. I will put you down with a plus 1 then lol.

 

[DaveP]

Thanks Paul I agree it's all about the Day but needed to check I wasn't stepping on German toes - so to speak,

Dave

Quite looking forward to this Paul, that area brings back memories of my Air Force days.
