Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance to Launch Seaside Scramble Fundraiser in Poole
The Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance is set to host a brand-new event, the Seaside Scramble, at Baiter Park in Poole. This initiative aims to raise crucial funds to support the charity's ongoing delivery of life-saving care throughout Dorset and Somerset.
Event Details and Activities
Scheduled for Saturday, May 9, with a start time of 9:30 AM, the Seaside Scramble is a fun-filled 5K challenge featuring a variety of air ambulance-themed obstacles. Participants can expect to run, climb, crawl, and scramble their way along the course, all while enjoying a day of laughter and camaraderie.
Whether you join with family, friends, or colleagues, this event offers a perfect excuse for a coastal outing while contributing to a vital local cause. Approximately one-third of the air ambulance's missions occur in the Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole areas, highlighting the direct impact of this fundraiser on the community.
