Last year two teenage runners were tragically killed on their way home from attending their running club. One of these girls, was a former pupil at Farnborough Hill.  3k has been chosen as it was the distance that she had excelled at, at district level.

We have chosen to support the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance because they are "Ordinary People who provide Extraordinary Care" and were on the scene of the tragic accident that evening.

Highly skilled crews of Doctors, Paramedics and Pilots can be at the scene of an incident within minutes.It currently costs in excess of £9,000 a day to maintain their life saving service, and it is only thanks to the generosity of the communities that they serve that they are able keep the Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.
