Story
On Friday 19 August 2022 at Blaenbwch Farm, Builth Wells, LD2 3HU, I will be attempting to break the British Lamb Shearing Record by shearing 873 or more lambs in 9 hours of work. Starting at 5am this is a huge challenge both physically and mentally.
I am taking the opportunity to ask people to sponsor my efforts in order to raise money for Wales Air Ambulance (and Parkinson's UK under a separate link).
Wales Air Ambulance Charity is funded by the people of Wales and requires £8 million a year to keep its four helicopters in the sky, serving Wales and saving lives. Living where we do in rural mid-Wales, we never know when we might need the air ambulance! It's a vital service to the farming community.
The charity can be anywhere in Wales within 20 minutes, its doctors and medics fly the A&E department to the patient!! It also runs the Children's Wales Air Ambulance service, transferring vulnerable babies and children to the specialist hospitals across the UK. Your donations will help keep this vital service in Wales.
I hope to see lots of you on 19 August and appreciate donations of any size :) .. Thank you all so much for your support.
