Welcome to the Northampton Ramblers’ Home page
A THANK YOU FROM YOUR CHAIRMAN
First of all I would like to thank those members who accompanied me on the charity walk on Saturday and popped their donations into the collection boxes, yes it was hot by the time we ended at the pub, but a refreshing drink soon revitalised us. Thank you to the members who sent along cheques and those who have donated on the Just Giving page.
Thanks to your generosity we have, to date, around £560 in donations from sponsorship and individual contributions. It would be great to make the £600 mark, so if any of you still have sponsorship monies to come in or any of you have yet to donate would like to add to the pot then please forward your cheque or cash to a committee member or better still log onto -
then you can donate from the comfort of your armchair.
Information from the Air Ambulance Service
On average, our Helicopter Emergency Medical Services will complete 3 missions a day, every day of the year.
The average mission costs £1700 to complete. Total missions last month were 318 and total missions 38,567.
Our two helicopters cover over 3,580 square miles and a population of over 3.2 million.
We cover many of the UK’s major road networks, including the M1, M6, M69 and M42.
We depend on the generosity of individuals like you to keep us in the air and saving lives.
We do not receive government funding and so it is the efforts and generosity of individuals and organisations that make it possible for us to do what we do.
We simply could not fly without you.
