I'm taking on a 2025 Ultra Challenge to support the work of your Local Air Ambulance
Well, we are nearly there. Our team has raised just over 6k to date, and we are grateful to each and everyone whom has donated and raised money for us, you are all lifesavers!! If you can, please show your support for Your Local Air Ambulance by sponsoring my Ultra Challenge. Every day of the year, your local air ambulance (Warwickshire & Northamptonshire/Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland) is helping save more lives. Our critical care paramedics, doctors and pilots attend an average of five rescue missions a day.
The air ambulance gives people the very best chance of survival and recovery. We are supported by a Critical Care Car meaning that we can reach those who need us 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The charity receives no government funding for its daily missions.
Thanks again for supporting our team and The Air Ambulance Service
My Updates
The day before…..
Friday 27th Jun Well, that’s it, walking bag packed, drinks made up, half way bag prepared with spare kit….. no backing out now!! 0830 start in Bakewell tomorrow for me and the team, nervous but excited. Just a final thank you to each and everyone that has supported the charity fundraising. We will let you know how we get on Share
Final Preparations Complete
Wednesday 18th Jun Well, that’s the last training walk completed yesterday around the glorious Peak District. Glorious weather ( too warm to be honest), but all good. Sore feet and just the one blister so all well. Walking shoes well worn in now, so all set for a week on Saturday at BAKEWELL. Our team has a 0830 start. Thanks again to everyone that has supported us with donations, it is going to make the pain and discomfort all worth it. Share
2 Weeks to go!!!!!
Thursday 12th Jun Well, just over 2 weeks until we start the 100k walk, starting from Bakewell at 0830. Our team have just hit the £6500 fundraising mark, which is far more than we ever expected!! We have had some amazing support, with some amazing company, family and individual donations; thank you to all that have kindly supported us. For me, I have one more longish training walk next week, then time for a rest before the event. Just to thank anyone that has donated, you are all life savers. Share
NFU North Derbyshire
Wednesday 28th May Good evening, and we are delighted to say that the cake bake sale held at Bakewell and 3 other NFU locations in the Peaks has raised over £570!!!
