When our pilot lands and our doctors and paramedics rush off to the scene, many of you will come and say hi to us and chat to the duty pilot.
On more than one occasion, one of those people will be six-year-old Alanna. She is one of Pilot Captain Dave’s biggest fans. Last June Alanna held a jumble sale on her front lawn, raising £253.
This year, she’s gone one step further.
On Friday 27 May, Alanna walked from Lee-on-the-Solent to Netley Abbey: a staggering 13.1 miles.
Proudly sporting her Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance running vest, Alanna absolutely bossed her walk to a stream of cheers, car horns and applause from members of the public.
Not only did she crush the challenge, but she has also currently raised £853 through her JustGiving page, with an extra £158.24 in offline donations.
Thank you, Alanna. You’re a superstar.
