Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am 'Operations Officer - Specialist Paramedic Critical Care' with the Great Western Air Ambulance Critical Care Team. In common with all English air ambulances we rely on charitable donations to maintain our service. In a bid to improve aircraft performance (reduction of payload) I have been volunteered to undertake the 'Battle of Lansdown' which is described as 10k of  at least 25 'extreme obstacles' - see http://extremeeventsuk.com/#event-info-container. We may even be persuaded to wear fancy dress if we achieve our target amount so dig deep and suggest an 'appropriate' get up. Please give generously as we rely on your donations to keep treating our patients and maintaining this vital service.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
