Cor Hutton, a woman who has overcome tremendous physical challenges including two prosthetic legs, two transplanted hands, a lung transplant, and a kidney transplant, is embarking on a new journey this August. She will be driving a clapped-out Audi TT from Glasgow to Nice, spanning over 3,000 miles and ten countries, to raise funds for Finding Your Feet (FYF), Scotland’s only nationwide charity supporting amputees and their families.
Hutton’s own experience with sepsis, which took both of her hands and feet, inspired her to create FYF when she couldn’t find the support she needed. Today, the charity offers peer support, counseling, well-being services, and inclusive clubs and activities to help amputees and those born without limbs, as well as their families, rebuild confidence, independence, and community.
Hutton’s journey will take her through the Stelvio Pass in the Italian Alps, known as the greatest driving road in the world, before reaching the finish line in Nice. She will be accompanied by Trooper Babs Poole, a double above-knee amputee and peer support volunteer with FYF, as well as nurses from Ninewells Hospital. The convoy also includes Norma and Alistair Matheson of Matheson Damp Services, long-time supporters of FYF.
Hutton’s son Rory, who serves as the convoy’s unofficial mechanic, and her friend Evie Jackson will also be joining her on this journey, along with Evie’s son Indie. The challenge was officially launched on 11 June 2026 at the Moulsdale Foundation Classic Car and Motorcycle Museum in Glasgow, with support from sponsors such as the Moulsdale Foundation, Arnold Clark, and the Malcolm Group.
The convoy will depart from Malcolm Group Head Office at 9am on 11 August, and the public is welcome to attend. The official Two Ball Banger Rally will run from 13 to 17 August, with a celebration in Nice. The convoy is expected to return to Glasgow on Friday 21 August.
FYF is grateful for the support of its sponsors, including the Moulsdale Foundation, Optical Express, Arnold Clark, the Malcolm Group, the Reo Stakis Charitable Foundation, and M8 Recovery. To donate to Hutton’s cause, visit the FYF website. For more information, visit findingyourfeet.net.
