256 Miles, One Mission: Saving Lives for Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance

Ben Cloud is raising money for Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance

Bike Ride · 2 July 2026

Saving Lives Through Your Support. Each life-saving mission costs £3,500 and on average, we are called to at least five emergencies everyday. It is only thanks to the generosity of the communities that we serve that we are able keep the Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.

Story

On a single ride, 256 miles around the perimeter of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, I’m pushing my limits to raise £10,500.

That amount funds three life-saving missions for the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance. I plan to complete this epic challenge in around 20 hours, all in one go.

To add a unique business twist: for every £1,000 donated by a business, Millstream Productions will create a free promotional video for that company. For donations of £500, we offer a complimentary photoshoot. This way, your support not only helps save lives but also elevates your business visibility.

Why am I doing this? I spent two days inside the aircraft recently, following the crew from the start of their shift to the end. What unfolded over that 10 hours will never leave me. I saw firsthand the dedication and urgency with which the crew operates for ordinary people like you and me.

I am asking you to join me in this cause. Either through donations, sharing this challenge with your network, or even joining some (or all) of the ride alongside me. Every mile I pedal matters; every donation makes a difference. Together, we can keep the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.
