EMILY Bentley will go to any lengths for her mum.The 24-year-old is driving from Lands End to John O'Groats to raise money for the Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Her mum, Angela, suffers from the condition.
She sets out tomorrow on the 874-mile drive in her yellow Fiat Cinquecento in a three- day drive, organised by the Fiat car owners' club, Clubcento.
Keith Robinson and Terry Truran, her bosses at Teesside chartered accountants firm Keith Robinson and Company, are putting up £100 to add to the £200 Emily has so far raised in sponsorship.
Emily, of Linthorpe, Middlesbrough, said: "I am really excited at the thought of driving up the length of the country in my little yellow Cinquecento. I have been a member if the Clubcento for two-and-a- half years now and think this is a fantastic way for us to raise money for the charity.
"The Multiple Sclerosis Society is particularly close to my heart as my mother is a sufferer. I have put all my efforts into raising as much money as possible and I am very grateful to everyone, including Keith and Terry, for their generous contributions."
Her stops on the journey will include Grasmere, in the Lake District, and Loch Ness, Scotland.
Emily's vehicle is one of only six cars making the trip
