HEMS Doctor Andrew Topping from Hillsborough is going several miles further, by challenging himself to run the full marathon in support of the charity and he’s not limiting himself to just Belfast. 

HEMS Doctor Andrew Topping takes on Belfast City Marathon

This spring I will be running 2 Marathons in 1 Week in support of Air Ambulance NI – The London Marathon on Sunday 23rd April and the Mash Direct Belfast City Marathon the following Sunday.  Support me in my fundraising challenge, or you could challenge yourself and join me and #TeamAirAmbulanceNI on Sunday 30th April at Mash Direct’s Belfast City Marathon, the Team Relay or the 8 mile walk.”

The Air Ambulance NI works in partnership with the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service to provide the HEMS for Northern Ireland. The service operates 12 hours per day, 7 days a week. The HEMS team attend patients who are seriously ill or injured, bringing emergency pre-hospital care direct to the casualty with the aim of saving lives, brains and limbs.

If you would like to register for the 8-Mile Walk, Team Relay, Half Marathon or Full Marathon you can do so at belfastcitymarathon.com/ When you register you will have the option to support Air Ambulance NI.  If you tick this box and the charity team will be in touch with your digital fundraising pack and invitation to the helicopter airbase so you can personally see the service you are fundraising for.

If running isn’t your thing, you can also show your support on marathon day by joining their cheer stations along the marathon route. The charity hopes to have 100 volunteers making lots of noise and shaking their poms-poms for the participants. To join in or for more information please call: 028 9262 2677
