Could you run the Great North Run in support of Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance?
This year we have had the pleasure of Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance visiting the students within our academy and we have more recently taken a group of Year 10s and Year 12s to visit them in their new building. We were able to talk to a paramedic, a doctor and the pilots all who make up the team of LNAA, as well as look at the helicopter, the first responder cars and all the equipment they take out to a scene of an incident. Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance are also hoping to offer a new volunteering programme for ages 16-18, more information will be sent out in the next few weeks.
During our work with Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance we have been offered the opportunity to raise some money for them by taking part in the Great North Run in September. The LNAA have secured a number of charity spaces for this year's Great North Run on 11th September 2022 and have 9 spaces left to fill, but time is running out. If you would like to join their Team Helimed29, run this iconic half marathon and fundraise for them, to sign up for this event please follow this link: https://www.ambucopter.org.uk/event/great-north-run-2022/
There is an administration fee of £39 and you will have to raise £400 for the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance charity. The Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance is one of the UK's leading Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) Charities, funded purely by the generosity of people like you! They are not part of the NHS and are not funded by the Government but rely solely on donations. It costs around £3,000 every time they fly out to save lives and they need to raise about £8,000,000 each year to provide their amazing service.
Many thanks to anyone who can help!
