Not all lifesavers come in the form of paramedics and Pilots, - without the army of fund raisers backing them,, Cornwall's Air Ambulance would have flown its last airborne mission many years age.

First Air Ambulance Service Trust (FAAST) was formed in November 1987 when, following the Area Health Authority's decision that it could no longer fford to meet the running costs of providing the helicopter service, a flood of spontaneous fund raising events were held throughout the County to help keep it flying. To augment the income being recieved on an "ad-hoc" basis, the Trust has launched a scheme whereby members of the public may donate a fixed amount to the Air Ambulance by means of a Bankers Standing Order. Enough regular donations of this kind would enable FAAST to guarantee the future of the service on a permanent basis, proving that when seconds count - you can count on us.

If you are also a tax payer and are making a donation please fill out 'Gift Aid Declaration' form, FAAST can reclaim the tax (currently 28p for each £1 you give).

FAAST is also looking for people in all parts of Cornwall who would like to join our friendly, efficient fund raising team and are prepared to help co-ordinate fund raising intheir area or prehaps spare a little of their time to organise regular events in support of the Air Ambulance. If you would like to help keep this vital and sometimes lifesaving service operating, please contact us.
