We are Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance, a charity providing critical medical care by land and air, across our communities. We’re here when you need us most. But we can’t do this without your help. As a registered charity, we rely entirely on donations and support from our local communities.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My challenge is to complete three half marathons around Wiltshire .....the Chippenham Half Marathon on September 15th, the Devizes Half Marathon on 20th October and finally a self made Half Marathon in November starting at Urchfont, India's home village, and ending at the Air Ambulance HQ in Devizes.

The reason I am undertaking this challenge is in memory of a dear friend's daughter, India, who tragically and suddenly passed away in August just a few days after her 13th birthday.

The Wiltshire Air Ambulance were on site within moments of the alarm having been raised, but so tragically India had already passed away.

Their help and support to her family, at that time and subsequently, has been phenomenal.

The Wiltshire Air Ambulance might be needed by any of us at any point in our lives, whether we live in Wiltshire or are just passing through. It is entirely funded by charity, and they have to find £6850 a day just to operate. It is for this reason that India's family have chosen this amazing cause.

I hope to be joined on the final leg of the challenge by some of India's closest family and friends, and Matt Baskerville the Wiltshire Air Ambulance Trainee Critical Care Paramedic who was on call that day.
