Story

Welcome to my page and thank you so much for donating - any amount is amazing and very much appreciated! 

I am running the Belfast Marathon on May 1st 2022. This will be my first ever marathon and until a few weeks ago I had never ran further than 5k so this will be a challenge! 

I have chosen to run in aid of the Air Ambulance NI. This charity is very close to my heart, we are so lucky to have this team of talented medical professionals. I have always supported the AANI as I compete horses which is quite a dangerous sport, I work in healthcare and I'm currently at University studying to be a Paediatric Nurse.

 However, this summer in an accident involving a close friend I realised just how essential this charity is. She required hospital treatment urgently and due to them she was able to receive life saving care on scene and promptly transported to hospital. 

Each day it costs roughly £5,500 to keep the service operational. I would love to raise this and more with your help! 

Please donate and I will keep you updated on my journey!! 

Thank you
