Story

Life-changing moments happen every day and the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance are there when you need them most; and they need our support to keep running!

It costs £4 million a year to run the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance - which is entirely funded by donations, with no government or lottery funding.

This is a charity that is close to both of our hearts.  As we both work in agriculture, we truly appreciate the risks associated with living and working in isolated areas. The Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance saves many lives every year, and plays an important part in our rural community, which sadly is so frequently affected by tragic incidents.

We have decided to take on a real challenge, to give something back and show our commitment. In September 2019 we will undertake a 100km trek across the Sahara desert in 5 days.  This will certainly test both our physical and mental strength... as well as our friendship! 

It costs approximately £2500 per air ambulance mission, so we have set ourselves a target to raise £4000 together. We aim to raise this through several local events along the way - we will keep you posted!

Thank you very much for all of your help and support.
