Dear Mr Readman
Yorkshire Air Ambulance would like to say a heartfelt thank you for another very kind donation of £210.00 raised at the recent village quiz night. Thank you so much to all those involved and for your continued support.
Your donation really is a life saver. It helps us provide a rapid response emergency service to 5 million people. On average, our crews respond to around 1,700 incidents each year-that’s nearly five missions a day across Yorkshire. We help people like Maura Jones, and her two daughters who were in a road traffic collision near Settle:
“Having the air ambulance where we live, as remotely as we do out here, is an amazing facility and an absolute godsend. It got me to hospital in approximately 20 minutes, when the journey by road would have been double. I know we’ve been lucky when I think what the other outcome could have been, we’re all still here, and we’re all together and still strong as a family. I feel very grateful”.
The Yorkshire Air Ambulance is an independent Charity and receives no direct government funding. As such, we rely on the generosity of people like you to help save lives 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Thanks to generous donations like yours we now have plans to improve our service by expanding our fleet to include a 3rd helicopter to act as a cover for when one of our two helicopters are down for maintenance. We are now also employing our own Technical Crew Members. All this means we will have greater operational availability and is another reason why your donation is so important to us, our patients, and the people of Yorkshire.
Kind regards
Sarah Marsh
Another great quiz night thanks to the Whitwell's who did the questions and provided two spot prizes and best of all a new trophy to be played for annually.
This year's winners were the Redheads &the Lairds who now have the honour of setting the 2026 brainteaser.
Finally thanks Richard &Christine for hosting the event.
We raised £400 which will be split equally between St Giles church & the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
Happy New Year to you all.
The first village event is our annual quiz which is going to be held on Monday the 20th at Coffee &Coe 7pm.
This year the quiz is being set by the Whitwells last year's winners so let's have a full house to raise as much money as possible for the village church and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
Cheers Neil.
