FBHVC EXCEEDS DRIVE IT DAY TARGETS The FBHVC National Drive-It Day in support of Childline® was a huge success for the historic vehicle community across the UK, both in terms of getting historic vehicles seen on the nation’s roads to raise awareness of our movement but also in raising money to support the vital NSPCC Childline® service. Whether it was small, socially distanced groups or individual journeys, the UK was graced by thousands of enthusiasts collectively hitting the roads to show off our nation’s transport heritage and support a cause that supports many young lives across the UK every day. The FBHVC can announce that the funds raised so far now exceeds £30,000, with Childline® plate sales continuing for postponed or delayed events later in the year. The money was raised mainly through the sale of the official FBHVC Childline® Plates and donations. For more information view www.driveitday.co.uk where a gallery of images from April 25 2021 can be seen. If you missed out on a Childline® plate, or you have delayed your Drive-It Day activities, the FBHVC still have a small number available and, of course, you can still donate via www.driveitday.co.uk. Sales and donations pages will remain open into the summer.
