Story

Outrun An Ambulance is back for 2023, with some new adaptions to help make it bigger and better!

Did you know, since April 2022, our Community First Responders (CFRs) have been the first on scene to emergency 999 calls 88% of the time?

As the value of our Volunteers grows by the day, we have included a mileage option of one of our CFRs Dacia Dynamic Response Vehicles (DRV). We have calculated the average DRV mileage across our four counties and have included this as an option for you to challenge and conquer. In addition to the newly added DRV Mileage, we will be including a 1000-mile option to honour the NHS's 75th birthday inline with NHS Charities Together 1000 mile challenge, the NHS's 75th Birthday will be celebrated this year on July 5th.

This year, we would like Outrun An Ambulance to appeal to a broader audience and encourage people to partake in groups and teams. We would love to see more groups and teams join forces to complete the Outrun an Ambulance 2023 challenge and contribute to the growth of the Outrun An Ambulance community. To encourage a sense of community, we've created an Outrun an Ambulance Facebook group where all participants can share their successes, journeys, and encourage other participants.

So, the question is Can you go the extra mile for our frontline staff and Volunteers by taking on and conquering the Outrun An Ambulance challenge this year?

How to get started:

Step 1: Choose the distance you intend to conquer from the ambulance station mileage options.

Step 2 : Decide which activity (i.e. run, swim, cycle etc) you are going to cover your mileage in, set a time frame that challenges you and plan to either go it alone or recruit a team.

Step 3 : Set up your fundraising page by the orange 'Start Fundraising' button.

Step 4: GO FOR IT! Everyone who completes their Outrun An Ambulance challenge and raises at least £1 will receive a special Certificate of thanks. Those who complete their challenge and raise £100 or more will also be sent a medal.

We would love it if you share your journey with us on social media with the hashtag #Icanoutrunanambulance #scas and tag us!
