“When he and Corrinne said they would like to do a run from Swindon to Yeovil in aid of our work we were happy to help in whatever way we can.

“This event will raise lots of awareness for the charity en route to Yeovil and we thank Swindon Town, Yeovil Town and all those companies who are helping to support our work.

“The funds raised from this event will keep us flying and saving lives. Funding for the Wiltshire Air Ambulance will rise from £700,000 per year to £2.5M by the end of 2014.

“We can only reach this amount with the help of people like Adam, Corrinne and Swindon Town’s on-going support and we wish them all the very best.”

Wainwright and Davis will run a similar return route to that covered by a group of Glovers’ fans and Yeovil Town Road Running Club members before the side’s met for the first time this season in November.

Former Yeovil physio Simon Baker led a group of relay runners through the night in aid of Yeovil Town Community Sports Trust and Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance, completing the full distance alongside Nigel Moysey and Nick Brooke.
