As many of you may be aware, the popular presenter of Top Gear, Richard Hammond (left) was involved in a serious accident yesterday whilst filming for the show. We’re big fans of the show here at JG towers and our thoughts are with his family and friends as they support his recovery.
A fundraising page has already been set up in his honour to raise money for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance charity: this is because Richard was taken to hospital by helicopter after the accident. You can make a donation to the page by going to http://www.justgiving.com/phrichardhammond
The page creator, Alex Goss, explains that his initial target was £340, as this is the average cost per mission for the charity. The affection many people feel for Richard can be seen by the fact that this target has already been passed.
