Our Rockinghorse Children's Charity Initiative 2023
Our support of Rockinghorse Children's Charity is part of our ongoing commitment to support local communities and charities. Operating in Sussex since 1967, Rockinghorse provides life-supporting specialist projects and enhanced services for sick babies, children, and young people throughout the county.
To help achieve our fundraising target of £10,000 by the end of the year, we have planned a series of exciting fundraising events throughout 2023. We are committed to ensuring that all proceeds from these events go towards Rockinghorse Children's Charity's ongoing efforts to support sick children and young people in Sussex.
Fundraising Events
Brighton Marathon
Rivervale was the official commercial vehicle partner of the Brighton Marathon, which took place on the 2nd of April 2023. We had a stand at the marathon village on Hove Lawns with the aim to showcase our innovative and eco-friendly Maxus vehicles However, just as importantly, we were there to raise money for Rockinghorse!
We set up a treadmill, powered directly by the Maxus T90 EV, and attendees were encouraged to walk, jog or run on the treadmill. The collective goal was to complete a marathon distance of 26.2 miles! The treadmill challenge was a great success, attracting many people who wanted to test their fitness and support a good cause.
Rockinghorse Charity Golf Day
On the 12th of May 2023, Rivervale will be attending the annual Rockinghorse Charity Golf Day. With plenty of prizes to win and the weather starting to improve, this event is shaping up to be another big success for Rockinghorse raising loads of money!

In aid of Rockinghorse, Rivervale has also organised a golf day on the 20th of July 2023 at Dyke Golf Club.
