Clara's Dream

Website / Hosting / Event Management

About

Clara's Dream was a charity event in the Euro Truck Simulator 2 community, raising money and awareness for the charity Child Bereavement UK.

It was founded by Gamer5, a good friend and a long-time member of WTL VTC who later started his own VTC, EHH VTC. In late 2017, he experienced the loss of a baby in the final stages of pregnancy. He created Clara's Dream to raise awareness of Child Bereavement UK and the support it gives to families going through the same experience.

I designed, built and hosted the event's website free of charge, as it was for charity, and I was the Events Manager for the 2019 event.

Challenge

To give a large, multi-VTC charity event a home online, telling Clara's Dream's story, explaining the cause, and giving drivers everything they needed to take part in a 24-hour convoy.

Solution

I built a static website in the event's pink branding. It had the event details and a sign-up link through ETS2C, plus pages for the team, the convoy routes and the truckfest, and a contact page.

As Events Manager, I helped plan the 2019 event: a 24-hour convoy split into 10 routes, covering a planned 9,629 miles and crossing 11 borders.
