Story
Our primary function is to be a member team of Lowland Rescue, to provide response to search & rescue (SAR) emergencies in order to search for, rescue and recover those missing or in distress or potential distress.The missing people we are requested to search for typically don't know they are lost, or don't want to be found. Dementia, Mental Illness, Despondents are all very common reasons we get called out.The team is made up entirely of volunteers, who give their time freely.Serving the community, saving lives.
Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page, raising money for two charities that I (and my dog Ollie) volunteer with, and one that I, and many others I work with, have gone to for support.
The first one is Search Dogs Sussex who work look for missing vulnerable people in Sussex, and the surrounding counties;
Secondly, The Ambulance Staff Charity (TASC), who provide support for my Green family and beyond. Especially now, and for years to come, this charity is going to be inundated with work following the harrowing effects that COVID-19 is having on all healthcare workers.
To do this, I have decided to go on a “short” 100km run along the Ridgeway. Please bare in mind the furthest I’ve run before is 15km!
I will be giving regular updates on my training runs, with my training buddy Ollie.
I would be so grateful for any pennies you could donate to these worthy causes, just by clicking on the donate button and choose which charity you’d like to donate to.
