Story
Thank you for visiting the Official Hobble on the Cobbles fundraising page for 2009.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure.
It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Thames Valley & Chiltern Air Ambulance Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Hobble on the Cobbles is a FREE community event, and the biggest free all-day live music festival in Buckinghamshire.
*SUNDAY 23 AUGUST 2009*
The Thames Valley Air Ambulance is here to save lives. Covering Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, the service has flown more than 10,000 missions to get people to hospital.
Whatever the emergency, the air ambulance is a vital service aimed at getting people treatment within the golden hour – the period of time when they have the best chance of surviving a serious incident.
And their ability to land in difficult places is a key asset in the areas they cover given the many rural places that a conventional ambulance would struggle to reach.
The Air Ambulance costs £1.7m a year to keep running, and they receive no funding from the Government, NHS or the National Lottery. Everything they need to keep running comes from the public in the form of donations, fundraising, legacies and sponsorship.
If you enjoy the music, the event and the FREE festival as a whole, then PLEASE help Aylesbury Showcase, and Hobble on the Cobbles raise money for the Thames Valley & Chiltern Air Ambulance Trust this year.
Many thanks
The Aylesbury Showcase Team
