PlaceWeston Road, Aston Clinton, Near Aylesbury, Bucks, HP22 5RN
The Chiltern Hills Vintage Vehicle Rally is held on the third Sunday in May and is a large, well
established event which raises money for local good causes. Attractions include around 800 vehicles,
50 trade stands, autojumble, helicopter rides, quad bikes, craft tent, pig roast, fun dog show and a
mini fairground together with other children's activities.
The rally is organised by a group called "The Game Club", which began fund raising in 1988 to help a
wheelchair bound patient at the National Spinal Unit at Stoke Mandeville Hospital. They began with
sponsored snooker and other games, hence the title. The result of these early efforts was a gold
medal at the 1988 Paralympics in Seoul!
Other support which has been given includes funding towards health care, equipment for local school
bands & sports clubs and helping local disabled people with sport and theatre activities.
