Machu Picchu Charity Trek 2014 · 1 November 2014

Every year, Cornwall Air Ambulance is tasked to around 1,000 missions, delivering fast and effective critical care to patients in their moment of need. As a charity, we need your help to raise over £9 million each year to keep the helicopter flying and the critical care team ready to respond

Story

Well! Here goes guys!! In 2014 me being the crazy person im not... I have decided to walk the Inca Trail in Peru in aid of the Cornwall Air Ambulance Trust (CAAT) This will be an adventure of a lifetime, and over the next 12 months I will be updating you on my fund raising and laughably my fitness!! hahaha

The CAAT is entirely public funded, and is the oldest trust in the UK having just reached 25 years in service!! Flying 365 days a year and attending on average 3-4 incidents a day, but unfortunately unable to attend night time rescues... Well all that is going to change in 2014 with the arrival on not 1 but 2!! new aircraft, full equipped for night time flying. As you can appreciate these will cost the trust millions of pounds! This is where myself and you lovely lot come in! 

Please take a few moments to consider the impact the CAAT could have on the lives on yourself, friends and family. Please share this page to as many people as you can!
