Rickshaw run 2014 · 31 March 2014

When patients in London suffer life-threatening injury, only our team can provide them with the help they need. With your support, we can perform complex procedures to save lives where others can’t. We can get there in time to make a difference and provide hope for the patient and their loved ones.

Story

Like most important matters in my life this endeavour was given birth in the pub. Having consumed one possibly even two halves of mild we decided that we wanted to drive a glorified lawn mower the length of India in an attempt to raise money for the London air Ambulance because they are a bloody good bunch. Even though my head felt somewhat different the next day, i.e. much lighter due to less brain cells, I didn't feel any different about navigating the most dangerous roads in the world in order to raise money for the boys and girls in orange. 

 

The London Air Ambulance serves the nation's capital 24 hours a day. Working with some of the finest doctors, paramedics and pilots in the world, the air ambulance delivers advanced trauma care to seriously injured people in London. They deliver literally life saving treatments to people on a daily basis, from severe road traffic accidents, rail crashes, stabbings, shootings, high altitude falls, and much more. London can be very proud of their medical helicopter service which leads the world in pre hospital trauma care. Their work is however dependent on charitable donations as they receive no money at all from the government. So it’s up to us people. Fingers crossed none of us will ever need their services but just in case drop us a couple of quid and in return you can follow just how often I play chicken with truck, shit myself in public or get arrested for eating sacred creatures.
