6 Midlands based Alfisti friends set ourselves a challenge - buy 3 Alfa Romeos for less than £1000, drive the North Coast 500 in Scotland and then display the cars at National Alfa Day, selling the most popular car. Whilst having fun with the challenge, we thought we would try to raise funds for local worthy cause - we chose Midlands Air Ambulance and we would love to raise enough money during the challenge to fund a Midlands Air Ambulance flight.

The Alfsiti are :

Graham Whiteside

Salvatore Vitale

Mark Gunston

Paul Jones

Midlands Air Ambulance Charity is responsible for funding and operating three air ambulance helicopters, serving the communities of six Midlands counties: Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, the West Midlands and Worcestershire. This constitutes the largest air ambulance operating region in the UK. The charity also provides secondary cover to surrounding areas, such as Warwickshire and Mid Wales.Since 1991, the charity has responded to more than 66,000 missions, making it one of the longest established and busiest air ambulance organisations in the UK. Each year it costs in excess of £10 million to maintain the three aircraft and the provision of a lifesaving service. Each air ambulance mission costs an average of £2,950. The charity does not receive funding from the Government for its daily missions so relies entirely on the support and generosity of local people and businesses.

We are therefore asking you to contribute to help us raise the money vitally needed for each flight - can you help us with our Alfa Romeo Charity Challenge?

Dont forget to tell friends and family you have made a donation, and shout about it on social media if you are online.

Please donate what you can.
