Story

Air Ambulance NI is offering your workplace or family the chance to be a Dragon and paddle up the River Lagan pacing yourself against competitors to win the coveted overall champion cup for fastest time.

Each team is encouraged to raise £1500 to keep the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service able to reach critically ill and injured patients and will save lives, brains and limbs!

The charity Air Ambulance Northern Ireland, in partnership with the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service, provides the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service for Northern Ireland. The service brings urgent medical assistance to anywhere in the province, operating seven days a week for 12 hours per day. It can get to anywhere in Northern Ireland in approximately twenty-five minutes. Air Ambulance NI needs to raise £2million each year to maintain this service so public donations are crucial.

About the charity
