Colden Common Bridge Club Fundraising Event for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance
Our duplicates on Tuesday October 13 in our Hall and Thursday October 15 on Real Bridge will be in aid of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance.
The air ambulance is funded entirely by voluntary donations and responds to more than 200 emergencies every month, making it a vital part of our community. Its new base at Southampton Airport means it is nearer to the main population centres and so able to save even more lives. 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. 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 this life saving service, and it is only thanks to the generosity of the communities that are served that keeps the Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.
Saving Lives Through Your Support - thank you!
