A fleet of supercars worth more than £7million made a special trip to greet children with serious brain injuries at a rehabilitation centre.
More than 50 supercars – including a McLaren MP4-12C, a Ferrari F40, and a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera – arrived at The Children’s Trust headquarters in Tadworth on Sunday, April 30.
The convoy was making the visit ahead of a supercar event expected to attract more than 17,000 visitors and raise £100,000 for the charity.
The Supercar Event is held at Dunsfold Park in Cranleigh on June 24 and 25, and includes passenger rides in the famous Top Gear track, and rides in helicopters, mini tanks and hovercrafts.

Tracy Poulton, Special Events Manager at The Children’s Trust said: “It was a fantastic morning, the children and families loved it. And it was a nice way for us to thank the drivers personally for volunteering their time, energy and supercars year after year and helping us to raise so much money.
“In fact, is was such a success we are considering opening it to the public in 2018. Watch this space!”
The Children’s Trust provides specialist rehabilitation, education and community services to children with brain injuries and neurodisabilities.
