Join in the fun this weekend at Liverpool's first North West Air Ambulance Bubble Rush

The North West Air Ambulance Charity (NWAA) is inviting everyone to join #TEAMNWAA and brighten up Wavertree Park, Liverpool, at the first NWAA Bubble Rush event on August 25, 2024.

Bubble Rush is a family-friendly, foamy fun run promising to be a highlight of this Bank Holiday Weekend, and everyone is welcome to take part.

You can walk, run, toddle or dance through this pushchair and wheelchair-friendly fun run. There’s no age limit and the whole family can take part in the fun activities and course.

Those taking part will receive an official NWAA Bubble Rush t-shirt to burst over the start line into a wave of foam.

There will be four coloured bubble stations filled with foamy fun and entertainment, and the overall course is two laps running to approximately 5km, but participants can also opt to run only one lap if preferred.

This will be an awesome summer day out suitable for friends and family, all whilst raising vital funds and support for the charity’s lifesaving vision of bringing the hospital to the patient.

The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s provides pre-hospital care 365 days a year, with consultant level doctors and critical care paramedics providing lifesaving enhanced, expert medical assistance to people across the entire North Nest region.

Sophie Cumby, Events Coordinator at the NWAA said:

“We’re so excited to be launching this exciting event in Liverpool, this year is the charity’s 25th Birthday and what a way to celebrate with fun for all the family! We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who is taking part in NWAA’s Bubble Rush, your support is so vital.

“Our lifesaving charity doesn’t get government funding, and we aren’t part of the NHS. We rely solely on our dedicated supporters to raise the £12 million we need each year to bring the hospital to the patient.”
