ALL
DAY
27 April 2025
Sunday 27th April is National Drive It Day.
The idea is that people all over the country get out to enjoy their cars on the same day.
This is done in order to raise funds for the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children's Childline facility. A worthy cause indeed.
In order to take part, simply visit the website and purchase an event plaque. All profits go to the charity:

In Norfolk and Suffolk, we have two great events to take part in:
1) Meet at Krazy Horse, Our friendly local Caterham Agent in Bury St Edmunds: https://krazyhorse.co.uk - Arrive from 08:30 onwards, grab a coffee and leave at 09:30. There will be a suggested route through Suffolk, ending at the Elveden Inn. More details to follow.
2) The annual North Norfolk Classic Vehicle Club run from Sheringham to Holkham Hall. This St Georges Day run takes place every year and a number of our members are regular attendees. If you haven't received an application form, contact the club via their website: https://nncvc.org.uk/index.html
If you can't make either event, why not purchase an NSPCC plaque and go out for a solo run, there will be plenty of folk doing the same thing.
Please note that these are all non-club events as other clubs and other vehicles are taking part in both of the runs.
