The children in Class 1 and Nursery at Blackawton Primary School will be taking part in a Mini Santa Fun run to raise money for Devon Air Ambulance this Christmas.

Santa's sleigh is not the only thing you will see flying in the sky this Christmas period. Devon Air Ambulance is the charitable trust which raises the funds to keep two emergency air ambulances flying and four critical care cars on the road all year round, delivering enhanced and critical care across Devon.

Devon Air Ambulance is independent of Government funding; Every penny raised is with thanks to the generosity of the communities, businesses and friends of Devon.

Thank you for your support - it really does save lives! Any donation will be very gratefully received and the Blackawton Early Years children are learning an important lesson that their actions can help others.
