Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We are Goughs The Magic Dragon and we are taking part in the Chippenham Dragon Boat Race on Saturday 29th August. We all either work for or are connected with Goughs Solicitors in Wiltshire.
This event is organised by Chippenham Rotary and 1/3 of all money raised will go to them to support local charity Springboard Opportunity Group Chippenham and national charity Shelterbox. Details of these can be found elsewhere on this site.
The remaining 2/3 of all money raised will go to our chosen charity which is the Wiltshire Air Ambulance.The Air Ambulance receives no Government funding or lottery money and is entirely dependent on the goodwill of the public to raise the £500,000 needed each year to keep the helicopter flying.
The Air Ambulance deals with a variety of incidents including road traffic accidents; sports injuries; industrial and farm accidents and fire and medical emergencies. You never know when it might be a member of your family that needs their help.
Please give generously, any amount will be gratefully received, as will be your support on the day - believe me we are going to need it!
