Chichester Christmas Charity Tractor Run Announce the Results of their Fund Raising
We are delighted to announce that the Grand Total raised for
the KSS Air Ambulance from the Chichester Charity Tractor
Run 2023 was a whopping £10,099.60!
When
we came up with the idea of organising a tractor run, the
initial concept was very low-key - that ourselves and a few
other of our local farmer friends, would decorate our
tractors and drive between some pubs in the area, hopefully
raising a few pounds fora good cause.
The
incredible response to the 63 tractors who took part became
a little more than that(!) and we feel very humbled that our
little idea has had such a big impact.
Air
Ambulance is such an important charity because it is for
everyone, you never know when you will need them. But it is
absolutely crucial in farming and rural areas where road
ambulances are often unable to gain access.
is
an in independent lifesaving charity. It costs £319.000 per
week to run the service with an average cost of a mission at
£3,700. They respond to an average of nine emerge, calls a
day.
So,
on behalf of ourselves, the committee and the charity -
THANK YOU ALL & Watch this space for 2024....,
