Yvonne's Big Jump for SCAA
Fundraising for Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance
Story
Everyone who know me will know that I am terrified of heights but at the same time I've always wanted to do a parachute jump. So I've decided that spring 2022 (exact date TBC) is going to be the time I face my fear and to make it an even more worthwhile challenge I'll be raising money for SCAA - Scotland's Charity Ambulance.
As a rider and trainer I'm vitally aware how vulnerable we horse riders are and an accident can happen to anyone at anytime, but when you are miles off the beaten track, the air ambulance can be the only accessible emergency service to reach you...this I've seen first hand!
I was shocked to find out that SCAA receives no statutory government funding and instead relies 100% on public donations.
Do you want to join me in making a difference? Every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
