Kilimanjaro Trek · 25 June 2012

Every day of the year, your local air ambulance (Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland) is helping save more lives. Our critical care paramedics, doctors and pilots attend an average of five rescue missions a day. We receive no government funding for our daily missions. Your support keeps us flying.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 4 of August this year I will be attempting to climb Kilimanjaro with friends and family (13 in all) at which we hope to reach the summit in 6 days at a height of 5895m – which is higher than Everest Base Camp.

I know this will be a life changing experience for us all and together we are looking to raise over £10K for various charities from the UK and across the world.

I have decided to raise money for a charity that is making a difference in the lives of 1000s of people across the UK. The Air Ambulance, "DLRAA", are a charity funded organisation which relies on the support of the community.

From personal experience, the Air Ambulance, assisted myself when I was involved in a life threating car accident with a mobile crane on the 3rd November 2009, near Rockingham Castle. After a long road to recovery, I would love to achieve a ultimate milestone and raise funds for the Air Ambulance, that sometimes go unnoticed for all their hard work done.

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.
