Yorkshire Air Ambulance Needs Your Support at Upcoming Events

Yorkshire Air Ambulance is an independent charity providing a lifesaving rapid response emergency service to 5 million people across the whole of Yorkshire.

To keep both of their air ambulance helicopters maintained and in the air, they require £19,000 every single day.

The Charity was set up in 2000 and with the addition of the second air ambulance in 2007, YAA now operate our their own Dedicated Air Desk for rapid dispatch of their helicopters to an incident.

The swift medical interventions provided by the air ambulance crews have a major impact on a patient’s chance of survival and subsequent quality of life.

Regional Fundraising Manager Tess Kemz explains more...

Yorkshire Air Ambulance is an independent charity that relies heavily on the generosity of the public and organisations to keep the service active.

Over the forthcoming weeks and months - YAA are looking to turn the whole of Yorkshire "Yellow" - with some special fundraising events.

If you would like to learn more about the YAA or get information on their events then go to their website.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
