Paul's Swim Fit 2000 Challenge for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity

Paul Watkiss is raising money for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity
In memory of Graham 'Billy' Edwards

2000 Lengths in June

Midlands Air Ambulance Charity operates and funds three air ambulances and a fleet of critical care cars covering Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands. This lifesaving service costs £13-14 million each year and is funded by donations only.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Each year it costs £16 million to maintain the three aircraft and the provision of a lifesaving service. Each air ambulance mission costs an average of £2,950. Each critical care car mission costs £288 on average. The charity does not receive funding from the Government or National Lottery for its daily missions so relies entirely on the support and generosity of local people and businesses.

I would like to fund a mission in memory of my Brother in Law Graham by swimming 2000 lengths in June. Quite the challenge at over 71 lengths every single day!
