Hero Charity drive is udder madness

-

Jackie is backing a bid to raise cash for Race Against Dementia that will see a car decorated to look like a Highland cow travel from Scotland to Mongolia.

Team Jackie Moo-art – spearheade­d by Sunday Mail journalist Graeme Donohoe – is taking part in next month’s Mongol Rally.

A Ford Fiesta supplied by Peoples Ford is being transforme­d by Perthshire artist Hilary Barker into a furry four-wheeled steed for the 10,000-mile adventure.

Jackie said: “The Highland cow is a great symbol of Scotland.

“I’m sure it will attract a lot of attention on your fundraisin­g car rally to Mongolia and wave the flag for Scotland.

“Race Against Dementia are very thankful to your team for their initiative and support.

“And I’m really pleased to hear that Peoples Ford are supporting this adventure.

“I won all three of my world championsh­ips with a Ford Cosworth engine so I’ve enjoyed a lot of success with their help.

“I’ve a deep respect for Ford. I’m sure your Ford Fiesta will get you to Mongolia. It sounds like an incredible adventure.

“I’ve no experience of driving on sand in a desert. I hope you’ve packed a shovel.” For more informatio­n on Team Jackie Moo-art or to make a donation, go to www.teamjackie­moo-art.com
