Meet new Critical Care Doctor Lily
December 6, 2024
Great Western Air Ambulance Charity’s (GWAAC) specialist crew are ready to leap into action at a moment’s notice whenever they’re needed, 365 days a year, even at Christmas time.
This winter, you can join in the festive fun to support our team of lifesavers. There are so many ways you can get involved!
Donate to GWAAC’s Winter Appeal
Your support can give every patient their best chance of survival. A donation today can help people like Ann —a Gloucestershire mum, grandmother and teacher who suffered a cardiac arrest at home. Our specialist crew placed Ann on life support at her home ready for a safe transfer to hospital. This intervention formed a vital part of the chain of survival for Ann, meaning she can look forward to many more Christmases with her family.
Discover the perfect gift at your local air ambulance shop
A warm welcome awaits at one of GWAAC’s many stores across the region while you shop for Christmas gifts and outfits. Our shops offer unique, second-hand gifts at a fraction of high-street prices. Shopping with GWAAC means sustainable choices that support lifesaving work in your community.
Visit a GWAAC shop today to make a difference with your holiday shopping!
Join in the fun at a fabulous festive event in aid of GWAAC
From carol services to tractor runs to Christmas light displays, come along to one of the many Christmas events taking place across the region to support our service. A full list of events this December can be found on here.
If you’d like to run your own festive event to help keep GWAAC’s critical care and air ambulance service operational, contact us for support.
Help GWAAC win in the Smiley Charity Film Awards
Vote for Simon Clark’s film in the Smiley Charity Film Awards.
Voting will help raise awareness of our lifesaving work in the region and your vote could open the doors to much-needed donations. We need to raise over £4 million each year to remain operational. And with 2024 being a record year for call-outs together with increased operational costs, it’s more important than ever that people support GWAAC however they can.
Voting closes on 29 January 2025 and it’s so easy to vote. All you need to do is register with an email and password. Voting is completely free.
We would like to wish everyone of our incredible supporters, a very happy Christmas!
