A big well done to local car enthusiast Stuart Dixon, who has now raised over £200,000 for Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice in the last four years. This has been a huge effort which sees him edge closer to his aim of collecting £250,000 for the charity.
Stuart, from Retford, has dedicated hours of his time to combining fundraising and his love of cars. He covers some of his racing cars with permanent, sponsored, coloured vinyl stickers in return for a donation to the charity, and also drives them around the country to county shows, country fairs and Jaguar and classic car shows, as well as attending restaurant and garage ‘open days’. At the shows, people donate to sit in the cars and at some shows ride in them.
He has also raised small amounts for First Responders and the NHS, and has also raised over £25,000 for local charities over the years with his charity Whist Drives. A fantastic effort.
