Big Charity Race at Southampton Airport raises more than £2,700

Big Charity Race at Southampton Airport raises more than £2,700

Staff from Southampton Airport have successfully completed a unique and demanding charity challenge, raising an impressive £2,700 for The Fire Fighters Charity and the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance.

Colleagues including firefighters, terminal staff and even the Managing Director took part in the event on last month.

It saw two teams from the airport take on very different endurance tasks in a friendly competition.

  • Team 1 ran 10km from the airport to Southampton ferry terminal, cycled 100km around the Isle of Wight, and then ran another 10km back to the airport.
  • Team 2 tackled 36 holes of golf during the same timeframe.

The challenge concluded with both teams returning to the airport, cheered on by colleagues and supporters.

Gavin Williams, Managing Director at Southampton Airport, said: “We’re incredibly proud of our staff for completing such a creative and physically demanding challenge. Their efforts have raised valuable funds for two outstanding charities, and we’re grateful to everyone who supported them along the way.”

Keith Wilson, Director of Income and Engagement at Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, said: “Challenges such as this show exactly how much this service is valued by our supporters.

“It was an incredibly hot day and conditions were extremely challenging, particularly when covering as many kilometres as each team did. We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who took part and everyone who donated to both teams."

All proceeds from the event will go directly to supporting the life-saving work of both charities. For more information or to contribute to the fundraising total, visit click here
