I'm stepping up to say thank you to the London Air Ambulance for saving my son's life.

On 14th September 2020 my 11 year old son was the victim of a serious road traffic accident in which he was critically injured. The HEMS team from the London’s Air Ambulance who attended to Mikail at the scene and then transported him to hospital were instrumental in saving his life. 

Up until that point, I had always assumed that London's Air Ambulance was a service provided by the NHS - I had never realised it was an entirely independent charity that relied on donations to maintain its operations.

So - to say thank you for saving my son's life, I’m stepping up to show my support for the London’s Air Ambulance Charity by taking up the mission to walk the equivalent length of the London border.

Miles for Missions is a challenge to complete 116 miles between 1st June and midnight 30th September, to help raise vital funds for this lifesaving service.

Please support me in this endeavour, with good wishes, encouragement, donations, or even by joining Team Mikail if you want to participate more actively - all of you are welcome (you can join us via the link on the Team Mikail page).

All donations will help save more lives by keeping the helicopter in the air and the rapid response cars on the road, ready for when they are needed most. 

By providing intervention as quickly as possible after injury, London’s Air Ambulance Charity aims to give patients the best chance of survival, and best quality of life, after trauma. 

Thank you for your support !!
