Willow and Sophie are raising funds for The Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service!
We've registered to take part in the Base to Base Challenge, to raise funds for this worthwhile charity.
We’ve got one full month to complete our mission on our bicycles, whilst the Rescue Helicopter will be completing approximately 120 missions by air. While we won’t come close to the Rescue Helicopter’s maximum speed of 310km/h, we will be doing our part to help save lives across Northern NSW.
The Westpac Rescue Helicopter provides urgent aeromedical assistance to over 1.5 million people, from Pre-Hospital Emergencies such as motor vehicle, farming and industrial accidents to Inter-Hospital Transfers of critically ill or injured. As a flying intensive care unit, the crew is able to stabilise patients on the scene or in the air before safely and rapidly delivering them to the most appropriate hospital.
All funds raised on our mission this October will help keep the Rescue Helicopters ready to respond to those who need it most so please make a donation and support our Base to Base mission.
Thank you for your support.
