Those of you that know me know that when faced with a new opportunity I will always give it a go and that I believe strongly in supporting good causes. So, when an opportunity to be a jockey in a camel race (I've never been a jockey and I've never sat on a camel) I was only ever going to say yes; when I found out it was raising money for the Hertfordshire Air Ambulance I was hooked on the idea!

You know what the air ambulance does, simply put, it gets people to hospital quicker and ultimately saves lives. The Herts Air Ambulance is not NHS funded but is a charity providing free life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Service across Hertfordshire. It costs £130k a month running costs and last month they airlifted 10 people to hospital. I have never been unfortunate enough to need the help of the Air Ambulance but feel safer in the knowledge that should I ever need it, it will be there thanks to the donations of good people like you.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
