What has our staff member Kirsty been up to the last 2 Fridays ? Walking different tracks to fundraise for the rescue helicopters !!
Last year her partner had to be airlifted to Christchurch hospital and Kirsty thought this would be an awesome way to give back to this amazing service. During the month of August there is a fundraiser called back to base. Kirsty and her friend Melissa are walking/running 155km for the month of August and each Friday have different tracks planned to help get those kms in !
The first Friday was The Whitehorse in Waimate and today they did the loop at Kakahu Bush ... Gorgeous day for it too !
Check out their photos and if you'd like to donate or read their story click the link below, they appreciate everyone that has donated and supported them so far 🤩
