Ruaridh (6 years old) decided he would like to help raise some money during the coronavirus pandemic. He  wanted to help the NHS but agreed that there are smaller NHS charities who are very important at this time. 

He decided on NEAS following discussions about the NHS needing more volunteers during the pandemic and he hopes to raise £50 as its £1 per mile he will cycle. 

With the funds raised NEAS can help to:Support our volunteers, Community first responders, drivers and porters. With your support we could use donations to recruit more volunteers and further train and support those already working with the service; Install medical equipment such as community defibrillators. We would use this equipment in the community to help prevent deaths from heart attacks; Develop a Cadet Scheme. The Trust is also looking to develop a cadet scheme for young people who are interested in the service
