Come And Meet Charlie Pitcher At The Essex Spectacular

VW Van Centre (Chelmsford) are proud to announce that intrepid fundraiser, Charlie Pitcher, will be in attendance on our stand at the Essex Spectacular being held on the 5th-7th August 2011 at Barleylands, Billericay, Essex.

Charlie, from Felsted, is the first man to run the Marathon Des Sables and row solo across the Atlantic in one year. More recently, he became the first man to run non-stop from the top of Ben Nevis to the top of Britain, some 350km in 100 hours.

The Marathon Des Sables is run across the Sahara desert in Morocca and requires participants to run nearly six marathons in six days carrying their own equipment and food. The race is considered to be the toughest foot race on Earth.

Charlie not only won his solo class in the Woodvale Atlantic Rowing Race in 2010, but the whole race in 52 days - a new British solo record and the first time a solo rower has ever won the world's toughest rowing race.

So far, Charlie has raised over £45,000 for the Addenbrooke's Renal Unit in Memory of his friend Shaun McLeod Jones who was a kidney dialysis patient at the unit until he died in May 2003. Charlie's expeditions have also raised a further £15,000 for other charities.

Charlie will be bringing along his rowing machine as part of a competition being held on the weekend in aid of his favourite charity.
