Running for a Lifesaving Cause! Raising charity funds for Air Ambulance

< 1 min read

At IEC, we’re incredibly proud of our team members who are not only experts in precision components but also dedicated to making a difference in our community. Ian Gritt, our TEQHS Manager, and Tina Hartley, our Purchasing and Stock Control guru, are taking on an inspiring challenge:

A 5km run in support of the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance charity.

Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance is a lifeline for those in critical need. They provide pre-hospital critical care that can be the difference between life and death. Our local air ambulance charity operates tirelessly, with a team of highly skilled pilots, critical care practitioners, nurses, and doctors who are on call for 19 hours a day, 365 days a year. They reach patients in remote and challenging locations, providing essential care on the spot.
Why This Matters:

Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance receives no direct government or National Lottery funding, relying entirely on the generosity of the public. Each mission they undertake costs approximately £3,000, and their operational costs exceed £5 million annually.

How You Can Help:

Support Ian and Tina as they run to raise funds for this vital service. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference and ensures that the air ambulance can continue to save lives in our community.

Join Us in Making an Impact:

Your support can be a lifeline for someone in a critical situation. Let’s rally together and help Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance continue their incredible work.

You can support Ian (The Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Charity: The 5K Twilight Shift 2023 (enthuse.com), Tina (The Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Charity: The 5K Twilight Shift 2023 (enthuse.com), or both, and learn more about this life-saving service (visit www.dsairambulance.org.uk).
