** 6/7th September at the Club **

Following on the success of last year’s event when, despite appalling weather, we raised just over £2,000, all of which was donated to our local County Air Ambulance Service, we are turning this into an annual event, at present supporting the same Charity.

It is worth mentioning that this is a very just cause as the Air Ambulance Services up and down the country exist on charity, receiving no help from the Government. In a country area such as ours the Air Ambulance Service can be the difference between life and death in some circumstances where they can attend and evacuate a casualty / patient far quicker than land based vehicles can, thus ensuring the minimum time between casualty / patient initial problem and their being admitted to the proper medical facilities, eg a hospital.

It has just been announced that we have a new service dedicated to cover Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland, the helicopter flying as HELIMED54. We will be donating all funds raised to this service.

Visit www.dlraa.co.uk for more information regarding the service

We are arranging this event along the same lines as last year (see review of last year), and it will take place over the weekend of 6/7th September.

We have already raised in excess of £2,000 this year by preliminary events such as sponsored silences, football card competitions etc.
