Outrun an Ambulance

Join us for Outrun an Ambulance - a virtual event that challenges competitors to conquer the 31 miles a London Ambulance Service ambulance covers in one shift.

Do it your way! If you don’t want to run, you can swim, cycle, scooter, hand-cycle or ride anything that is self propelled. Take part on your own or beat the mileage as part of a team.

Set up a fundraising page to support London Ambulance Charity in a way that means something to you, then, invite your friends, family and colleagues to get involved and support you. You can keep people updated on your progress and track how close you are to reaching your target. Creating your fundraising page is really simple. Just choose a name for your page, add an image and a write a message about why you think this work is important and why you've chosen to fundraise for us. Thank you so much.

Kingston CPR

Kyla Cranmer

In 2025 my dad had a cardiac arrest and was saved by his friend. A few months later I got to “pay it forward” when a young man went into cardiac arrest whilst I was out Christmas shopping, he also made a full recovery. I’m now giving free BLS classes in my community and want to raise money for this charity to support training bystander CPR and get defibs into the community
