Kent Air Ambulance Run 22/7/2012

Definitely aim to attend this one

 

Jim, as per previous discussions I'm happy to play cornerman/tailgunner. Will try hardest not to loose you again this time.

 

Certainly be up for this

 

I don't mind wearing Flouros for a good cause...

 

Happy to help if I'm about

 

Wot you talkin' bout, I lost you! (Hem hem)
We will certainly be looking at having designated marshalls/corner men/women. Discussions are underway as to how best we tackle this so watch this space.

 

Count me in !

 

Yeah it's a real shame about the KAA Open Day, but after lengthy discussion and numerous e-mails we (Paul and I) felt that they weren't able to offer a suitable event to attend and were finding it hard to accomodate the number of riders we anticpated being able to stir up, for a 'stand alone' event at their HQ. So whilst we intend to support their official MC Run being organised in Sussex in September we both felt that we should look for another worthy cause that can benefit from the clubs generosity and cope with the number of bikers we intend to organise.

I have been on Pet food runs (runs out to local Animal Charities) and Toy Runs as Paul has decribed above and they are always a good crack, ideally we need a charity that will have space to accomodate us on arrival and one that can facilitate us doing something when we get there, even if it means just showing us around/ or letting us have a look around . Perhaps also the ability to supply refreshments (which we pay for of course) so somewhere with a canteen or something would be great. This last bit may sound strange because we are obviously trying to do something good for the needy without getting payment in kind, but just turning up and handing a cheque over in a car park then all 'star-bursting' off again is a bit of an anti climax, it's nice to have and end result even if it's just a cuppa tea and a fag.

I'm a bit of animal lover and animal charities (especially the smaller ones) are always keen to accept pet food and bedding, I have strong links with one in Biggin Hill called FOAL Farm who I will nominate, having said all that I am aware that not everyone is an animal lover so this may well not be a popular choice, which is cool, each to their own. What's your idea?

 

For me, it would definitely be the animal charities of which there are so very many, who are struggling like you would not believe right now.
Sussex Horse Rescue Trust are a fairly local one. There is Kit Wilson, Hadlow Down, Cat's Protection, Blue Cross at Catsfield, Last Chance at Edenbridge, could go on and on.

 

have to be the Rainbow Trust for me

 

Demelza House is good for me! Its local too me.

 

i would say Guide dogs for the blind or RLBI .

 

its Yoda's choice RW and Paul does like the Royal Lady Boys Institution,

Personally i dont mind which charidy, just happy to attend. Some great sugestions though.

 

And Why cant we Support these Lady Boys they have a hard time in life and our monety could make a diffrent to 1 boys life he could now become a women and pay us all back

 

Demelza House also does it for me,
I do have some contacts there, as I did a charity working trip to Africa with them,
