Poppy's fundraiser for North East Wales Search And Rescue

Poppy Fitzsimmons is raising money for North East Wales Search And Rescue

XTERRA Snowdonia Half Trail Marathon Eryri · 12 July 2025

Donations made here will help NEWSAR remain operational. Every year our volunteers are busy raising around £30,000 to keep diesel in our Land Rover Ambulances, replace worn out kit, make repairs to NEWSAR base and train our volunteers.

Story

I am runnning the XTERRA Snowdonia Trail Half Marathon as my first Half Marathon - it’s going to be a challenge with 1200m of ascent over 21km. I’d like to raise money for NEWSAR (NE Wales Mountain Rescue) during my run.

NEWSAR volunteers provide the Police, Ambulance Service and local communities of North East Wales with a highly competent search and rescue capability that can be deployed swiftly, safely and effectively 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.

NEWSAR does not receive any Government funding.
