Thank you for visiting our team page. We are a team of three local Paramedics running the London Marathon to raise money for FLEET.
The charity helps provide community defibrillators as well as the latest life saving equipement and training to the emergency services in Cornwall.
Thank you to those individuals who have donated to this great cause.
Thank you also to personal choice funeral homes for their support over the last six months helping to raise £1699.84 and Viridor for their generous donation of £250.
With over 14m visitors to Cornwall each year the local Emergency Services are challenged to provide the best possible care despite congested remote locations often delaying response times and causing lengthy transport times to hospital.
Thanks to the work of FLEET and the kind donations received from the people of Cornwall and beyond, remote areas are equipped with defibrillators and trained volunteers. Local Emergency Services are given the latest training and are supplied with the latest lifesaving equipment to give the best possible means of stabilising and saving lives.
Since its’ inception the aim of FLEET has widened and the charity now provides equipment to all the services that give emergency medical support to the public. FLEET equipment is in constant use on:
All the county’s emergency ambulances, Emergency response motorbikes and cars, Cornwall County Fire Engines, Cornish HM Coastguard teams, Cornish RNLI Lifeboats and Cornwall’s Air Ambulance
Reduced our team target as unfortunately Hayley was unable to run the marathon this year but will focus her efforts to run it soon.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
