Every day people contact the Air Ambulance Office to ask for our help in various ways. To make things easier, we thought we would let you know what we need to make it simpler for US to help you.

• IF you would like information about the Air Ambulance or intend on holding an event to raise money for the service and would like some posters to advertise it, just drop us a line or 'phone us and we shall be please to send you whatever you require.

• IF you want to sell Air Ambulance Promotional Items at your event, these may be ordered by 'phone, although we would prefer you to use our standard order form, which we can send to you on request. Please allow three working days for us to make up your order before you call to collect it.

• IF you would like to have a representative from the Air Ambulance to attend a cheque presentation ceremony, or to give a talk to a group or organisation about the work of the Service, we shall need full details from you in writing. Please let us know the time (not after 9pm please), date (preferable not a Saturday or Sunday) and venue. It would be helpful if you could give a couple of alternative dates to ensure that someone is available. AT LEAST THREE WEEK'S PRIOR NOTICE IS ESSENTIAL!

• IF you are taking part in a sponsored event and would like official sponsor forms, please write in with full details of the event, date and name of the sponsored person(s) and we shall be pleased to oblige. If for any reason the event is delayed or you do not participate, please let us know and return the sponsor forms as soon as possible so that our records may be updated accordingly. All sponsor forms are consecutively numbered and MUST be returned to us with your donation for audit purposes.

Please note: confirmation of dates for presentations or talks will not be given over the telephone. In order to avoid possible disappointment, you MUST send details in writing.
