A SCUNTHORPE man will lead a team of four adventures across 17 countries with just an ambulance and their wits.

Tommy Buxton, 29, of Dunlop Way, Scunthorpe will leave from London with his four-strong team on July 24, for a four week expedition in which his team will cross 17 countries.

His "Team Ulaanbulance" squad are hoping to raise £10,000 for Scunthorpe autism charity Magic Moments, and Mongolian charity CYPDD (Children and Young People's Protection and Development) through their epic voyage.
