This is a charity close to my heart which I have supported from the start.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance brings an advanced critical care team to people in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight when they need it most whether on a congested motorway or out in the middle of nowhere.

Highly skilled crews of Doctors, Paramedics and Pilots can be at the scene of an incident within minutes.

It currently costs in excess of £17,750 a day to maintain our life saving service, and it is only thanks to the generosity of the communities that we serve that we are able keep the Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.
