Chairman Jayne Simmons said: "We take part in many of the usual runs and shows such as the London to Brighton and Mini Cooper Day at Beaulieu, however, two years ago, we decided to put together our own charity run and chose the RNLI as the recipient for money collected on the day.
"We really want to make a big success of the run this year and raise as much as we can for this extremely worthwhile cause."
