Motorsport fans are bidding on a once in a lifetime experience to drive alongside two-times F1 World Champion, Mika Hakkinen, to raise much needed funds for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, thanks to myHermes.co.uk.
Hakkinen, who is a brand ambassador for the door-to-door delivery company myHermes.co.uk, which has created the auction, is offering five driving experience prizes with the former F1 World Champion at Mercedes World, in a ten-day eBay auction taking place until 14 February.
The auction will see all proceeds go towards Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity, whose pioneering research and treatment gives hope to children who are suffering from the rarest, most complex and often life-threatening conditions, from across the country and abroad.
Speaking of the auction, Carole Woodhead, CEO at myHermes.co.uk, said:” We are delighted to be able to host the auction on behalf of Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity. Not only will the winner get to drive with a true Formula 1 legend, they will raise money to help children across the UK – it is a once in a lifetime opportunity not to be missed!”
Mika Hakkinen said: “It is a great initiative from myHermes.co.uk, I am a father of two myself and appreciate the importance of the work which Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity does for sick children. I sincerely hope that we will be able to raise a lot of funds.”
The auction prizes include one 60-minute driving lesson with Mika Hakkinen, two 30-minute driving lessons and two 15-minute driving lessons, all complete with hot laps in an AMG Mercedes, training sessions with a qualified instructor and a three course lunch with Mika.
