HUGE favour for the Le Mans weekend - cheeky request

Hi guys

I hope no-one is offended me asking this here, but I am asking a huge favour of all of you guys. Apologies for the 'boringness' of my post.

As some of you will know, my wife and I had a little girl born in September very unwell. She's absolutely fine now (albeit a few extra checks and seemingly a slight propensity to pick up chest infections more easily), but we were left in awe of Colchester and Addenbrooke's Hospitals and their actions, and also The Sick Children's Trust; who gave me (and later my wife once she was discharged) a room for the duration of Aoife's stay - at no cost to us. When we were being told at the earliest juncture to be prepared for the worst, you can imagine what a difference being on site 24/7 made to us.

For the 2016 race, I am planning a pretty special event that will tie in to the race. However to try and kick it off in the right direction, we will be launching at the race this year; with hopefully a few extra, rather interesting additional elements in the interim period. To aid the launch, my 'favour' is to ask you of maybe an hour of your time tops whilst you're in France to help spread the word with some fliers and such like.

As bizarre as it sounds, at this stage I don't want to publicly announce what we're doing in terms of the event. I can say I have some pretty high profile support, and I am hopeful that we will blast my target of £26,000 for charity (which will keep two rooms operational for a year).

If you think you might be able to help, please drop me a PM and I'll make arrangements.

Apologies again for the non-race element to the post, but knowing the good nature of all you guys thought I may be able to benefit from a bit of good will for a fantastic cause.
