Print Hut's Charitable Chain

Frank Golden the Company’s owner adds, "since witnessing my youngest son in a verbrile convulsion at the age of two and the subsequent sight of an ambulance outside our house in a matter of minutes I have always wanted to extend my gratitude to the ambulance service in Cambridgeshire. I was horrified to find out that the air ambulance service is void of any centrally government funded scheme so rely on both public and private donations only. When I approached the ambulance service in Cambridgeshire asking how I could show my appreciation, they pleaded with me to support the Air Ambulance.
"We hope this scheme and the support of both our customers and suppliers, Print Hut can help to make a small difference. If you would wish to donate directly, I have attached a few donation forms to download. Finally, a last thought; next time you hear that ambulance in the sky, just think of the consequences if that machine was unable to take off due to lack of fuel or no one to pilot it – then think of your child laying in the back of an ambulance stuck in a traffic jam on the way to hospital for a life saving operation- how much would you pay to have them flown they instead – I guess thousands, wouldn’t you!!!"
The charity is independent of government and National Lottery funding and is entirely dependent on fund-raising and contributions. To keep its two air ambulances flying and to provide the advanced medical equipment they carry over £3 million per year has to be raised. On average the EAAA are called to four incidents a day, life threatening situations such as road traffic accidents, incidents involving people in inaccessible places, cardiac arrests.
Because of the advanced skills, drugs and equipment found on board, and being able to access places impossible for a land ambulance, the EAAA can make the difference.
