Story

The life, of the 23 year old son of one of our dearest friends was saved recently, through the swift action of the Air Ambulance crew, following a near-fatal motorbike accident. He continues to fight on a very long road to recovery, having been treated at The Royal Hospital in London and then at Stoke Mandeville Hospital. He is now at the fantastic Headley Court Rehabilitation Centre, where he continues his care.

We feel we simply must help to support this VITAL service who need £2,000 for each flight, to save just one life. Please help us to raise as much as possible to save more lives, and also to thank them, for saving Olivers. The Air Ambulance service receive NO government funding or lottery monies - relying completely on public funding to keep them flying.

We will be arranging various events throughout the year (Oct 2012 - Oct 2013), so please help, support and get involved wherever you can. I've been doing a SPONSORED SLIM with some lovely friends and have lost 1.5 stone already! Please sponsor us to help keep us motivated!

Then I held a Fundraising THERAPY WEEKEND with Declan Clark, on Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th November, where we massaged 25 people, and raised a staggering £830! Many thanks to the generosity and support of all who came - it was a fantastic weekend.

A client and friend Gemma Cockrell, also arranged a lovely SPONSORED TODDLE WALK at the end of November for us, and raised a fantastic £398.91!

We held a  CHARITY AUCTION NIGHT too! This was on Thursday 7th March at The Richard Onslow pub in Cranleigh. We sold over 85 tickets and raised £3,820.88 on the night! We were also lucky enough to have the actual Critical Care Paramedic Jon from the Air Ambulance to do a talk, that was the guy on the scene at Oliver's accident...so it was very special and a great privilege to be able to say thank you in person for helping to save Oliver's life...x 

30 of us (many with a fear of heights and dodgy knees!) then braved a CLIMB OVER the LONDON 02 on Sunday 14th July, and we raised a further £3,955.12! Brilliant result and massive thanks to everyone who took part and raised so much money.

If you would like to hold your own sponsored event to help us raise more, we would be thrilled! Please email us and we'll do whatever we can to help you get started. 

Thanks so very, very much for your support, from us, Oliver and all of his family too. This really will make a difference...and save a life.
