What do you get when you combine an interior designer, a tiler, a slightly questionable sense of adventure, and a Mini called Tilly?

Apparently… a Pork Pie Charity Run team. 

We’re Greg and Charlene from Southland, and in 2027 we’ll be joining 50 teams of other Kiwis on an epic journey from Paihia to Bluff, all to raise money for the incredible team at Life Flight.

As business owners, parents, and proud Kiwis, we know how important emergency rescue and medical services are. Life Flight is there when families face some of their hardest moments, delivering critical care and transport when every second counts. That’s why we’ve decided to step outside our comfort zone, embrace the chaos, and do our bit to help keep this lifesaving service in the air.

Over the coming months you’ll see fundraising events, sponsorship opportunities, plenty of laughs, and no doubt a few questionable decisions as we prepare for the adventure ahead. 

Our goal is ambitious, our car is tiny, and our enthusiasm is probably larger than our common sense… but we’re determined to make a real difference.

If you’d like to follow along, support our fundraising efforts, or simply watch two Southlanders attempt to survive a cross-country road trip in a miniature car, we’d love to have you on board.

Every dollar raised helps Life Flight continue their lifesaving work. Every donation makes a difference. Welcome to the journey.
