This month I have decided to give to The East Anglian Air Ambulance, whose details can be found here
Each mission costs them £2270, which is quite a lot of money. I have been fortunate, so far, in not needing their services but do see them flying quite a bit. If you want to see just how often they fly, check out this missions
One of the times we were at Old Hunstanton, a yellow helicopter was on top of the cliffs, so it was probably them. It took off before I could get close enough to photograph them.
I have a standing order to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance each month,and have done for about 6 years. I think its such an important service and so many people wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for the skill and dedication of the crew. Hubby's flying club have an event every year and the profits go the the Air Ambulance Fund. We have 2 helicopters in Yorkshire at a cost of over £9k a day!!
ReplyDeleteI think they a great charity to support.
A friend of mine does that too to the above. I didn't 'give' (money) to organisations for many years, instead I did it in other ways. Now I am at an age where physical help is not my first choice and am solvent enough to be able to give every month. As I spend less and less on 'stuff', I am able to give more and that feels good.
