Paramedics in world record

A GROUP of paramedics from the Yorkshire Air Ambulance will be taking part in a world record attempt this evening.

They will be attempting to break the record for the longest time playing five-a-side football, at Wickersley Sports College.

The group attempted the record in May but were hampered by bad weather. They hope to raise £7,200, the cost of a day’s flying for the air ambulance.

Kick off is at 5.30pm and they are aiming to play until 3pm on Sunday.

Anyone who wants to donate food and drink to the group call 01422 237900. To sponsor them visit www.justgiving.com/Fiveasidefootballworldrecord-attempt.
