The Time Saves Lives campaign is a major effort to save lives when the Air Ambulance brings a critical child to the hospital. Currently the Air Ambulance can cover most of the UK in quick time, however the last part of the journey is often done by an ambulance or conventional travel.
The aim is to raise enough funds for a helipad to be built on the roof of the hospital which will directly reduce time and save lives in the final minutes of a child's journey. That last 15 - 30 minutes can be the critical difference in a child's survival.
The Big Charity Drive consists of teams who will drive in cars worth less than £1000 from Manchester to Chemnitz in Eastern Germany (Manchester's twin town) and back. Each team is committed to raising money for RMCH and will donate the cost of the cars/car itself.
We would love it if you could get involved!
