The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s annual ‘Brew for the Crew’ fundraiser is back next month.
In partnership with Lancashire Tea, the North West Air Ambulance Charity is inviting people across the North West to host a Brew for the Crew event during their birthday week, from the 15th to the 21st of May (the date can be extended if needed).
Lancashire Tea will provide 10,000 brews for supporter-led events.
Stephen Knight, Managing Director of Lancashire Tea said: “Linking up with the folks at the North West Air Ambulance Charity and supporting the fantastic ‘brew for the crew’ initiative just makes sense given our own love for the wider communi-tea.
“We look forward to working together and playing our own small part in helping to shine a light on the wonderful work the team at NWAA do on a 24/7 daily basis supporting people across the region.”
The team at Lancashire Tea, have also been to the charity’s base, to meet the crew, they also went on a guided tour with one of the Critical Care Paramedics to learn more about the charity’s lifesaving work.
Chris Andrews, Corporate Officer at the North West Air Ambulance Charity said: ”We’re so pleased to be working with Lancashire Tea this year and delighted they are sponsoring our Brew For the Crew campaign.
“Their support will allow us to continue saving lives across Lancashire and the whole of the North West.”
In the last year, the charity has been called to over 800 incidents in Lancashire alone. The Lancashire Tea partnership will help the charity raise lifesaving funds and further awareness of the work they do.
Hosting a Brew for the Crew provides a great opportunity to get friends, family, colleagues or even the wider community together to catch up, have a brew, eat some treats and make a lifesaving difference to people in their community. For more information head to www.nwaa.info/BFTC
The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s helicopters and critical care vehicles operate 365 days a year. Their highly skilled doctors and critical care paramedics on board provide enhanced pre-hospital care and hospital transfers to patients across the entire Northwest region each year – an area covering 5,500 square miles and over 8 million people.
Since its launch in 1999, the North West Air Ambulance Charity has been called to over 31,000 missions across the region, an average of around seven times a day.
Just as the many critically ill and injured patients would not have survived without the service the charity provides; the North West Air Ambulance Charity would not be here without the support of its community of fundraisers and partners.
The charity is not part of the NHS and doesn’t receive any government funding. They rely completely on public and corporate donations to carry on saving lives. The North West Air Ambulance Charity must raise over £12 million every year to continue its lifesaving service.
