What is the Italian Job?
The Italian Job is a combination of two core elements which attract so much attention from the
press and public alike. Firstly, the Mini: the endearing little car and secondly there is the
charity element and fundraising aims of the Italian Job. Combined, they are a formidable force
capable of generating great affection and widespread media attention.
We have reached our initial target of a "Mighty Million by the Millennium" thanks to the commitment
of "Jobbers" (that's participants) and to the support of enthusiastic Mini owners in the UK and
world-wide. We have almost raised our second Million and will continue to Raise Money for children
in a fun way.
If you always wanted to be a part of a "holiday with a difference" whilst helping children who
need your support and help, then the Italian Job might just be the thing you have been waiting
for. Explore the website to find out how you can join the modern day "Self Preservation Society"...
do a heap of good and have a cracking time to boot! By supporting KIDSOUT Charity we are helping to
build a happier future for disadvantaged children and young people in the UK , who are in need of help and
support. So lets go, join us and start raising money!

The Route, with an Italian Twist
You can plan your own journey to the START point in Italy visiting on your way
some of Europe`s most fantastic cities and resorts. Following the rally route you
will drive off the beaten track, over medieval bridges, through tiny villages and explore cities such as Bologna, Turin and Venice. You will be staying in hotels such as the Holiday Inn, state of the art Meridien in Turin or the majestic Regina Palace on the shore of lake Maggiore. There is ample opportunity to enjoy the hospitality of local producers and to sample regional cuisine and typical delicacies. Finally the rally will take you and your Mini on to the Adria raceway circuit, and perhaps onto the Grand Prix circuit of Monza and you may also go for a lap or two on the famous Lingotto Roof top test track which appeared in the 1969 film.
Your challenge / aim is to win the much coveted Sponsorship Award and to place your Team within the top 10 on the navigational rally.
Our itinerary varies each year so be sure to visit back often to see where the subsequent Italian Job will take you. It could be the
magical city of Trento in the Dolomites or perhaps for a visit to Paris for a leisurely stroll on
the Champs Elysees.
Whatever route we take it should be fun all the way!
