A team of nine representing all three of our Gooding Accounts offices will scale Wales’ highest peak this summer with the aim of raising at least £2,000 for Wiltshire Air Ambulance.
Led by expert guides, the team will begin the climb at 2am, continuing in complete darkness to reach the summit to witness the sunrise. The challenge is part of the firm’s 10-year anniversary celebrations which will see the entire Gooding Accounts team raise £50,000 for local charities.
Company Accounts Team Leader Sharon said:
“We’re all looking forward to the challenge and are keen to get started walking the countryside of Wiltshire in preparation. We’re thrilled to be able to do our bit to help such a fantastic charity which is so close to our hearts.”
This week some of the Snowdon Sunrise team were welcomed to the Wiltshire Air Ambulance base in Semington to find out more about vital work the charity carry out across the county.
Marketing Manager, Emma, said:
“It’s such a privilege to visit the base and meet some of the team who provide this lifesaving service for us all here in Wiltshire.”
In 2024 Wiltshire Air Ambulance will need to raise £4.5 million to continue its vital services across the county and Bath. The charity receives no regular funding from the Government or National Lottery grants and relies on donations from the public and local businesses to fund the helicopter, crew and all of their support staff.
The highly specialised critical care team can reach anywhere in Wiltshire in 11 minutes and fly to the centre of Bath in just four minutes. This speed can literally mean the difference between life and death for a patient.
The Snowdon Sunrise event is being coordinated by Wiltshire Air Ambulance, so if you’d like to join the Gooding Accounts team on the mountain simply visit their website to find out more.
