Sue Ryder Care

Charity Registration No. 1052076

At Sue Ryder Care, we care for people who are seriously ill, helping them to get the best from life. Our approach considers every aspect of an individual’s wellbeing by listening to and supporting their choices. We help put back the dignity, independence and confidence that the disease takes away, enriching people’s lives and those of their families. Our expert care helps people living with Cancer, Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis and Brain Injury. Our work goes beyond the UK. Sue Ryder Care supports the delivery of specialised health and social care across Europe and in Southern Africa.

My story

Air Ryder Challenge: ARC, Reaching Across the Community

We are a group of young graduates working for Airbus who have challenged ourselves to mark the end of our time in our company’s fantastic graduate scheme by giving something back to the community. We will be using our final four months to run a number of fundraising events for two very worthwhile charities:

- Great Western Air Ambulance <http://www.greatwesternairambulance.com/>

- Sue Ryder Care <http://www.suerydercare.org/>

The culmination of all the fundraising events will be a gruelling four-day cycle from an Airbus base in Bristol to EADS headquarters in Paris. The challenge will force each individual to dig deep and maintain an agonising training regime before beginning the arduous 400km journey.

Please help us to raise awareness and much needed funds for these very deserving charities by donating as much as you feel you can.

Notes:

- If you are sponsoring a particular individual/s, please put their name/s in the comment box. This allows those individuals to track their personal targets. If the name of the individual you are looking to sponsor is not at the top of the page in the 'Team Member' list, their sponsorship page may be at the following link www.justgiving.com/arc2

- Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Sue Ryder Care and Great Western Air Ambulance get your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
