Yorkshire Air Ambulance
With Melodys off at the weekend, and a rather odd trend that seems to be affecting the org at the mo - I'd like to setup a donation page for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA).
They came to Melodys rescue, where it would have taken an ambulance ages to find us - if you havn't seen the pages about the off, she is OK and recovering. Unless there is already one setup by this site, I'll create one - and you can donate directly to them (unless a site admin wants to do it?). On their site http://www.yaa.org.uk/ there are details of how you can donate as a one off: http://www.justgiving.com/yaac Making a donation by text is the quick and easy way to lend your support Text HELI to 84010 to make a £3.00 donation Text YAAC to 84010 to make a £1.50 donation This is just an idea, but I'd really like to get something done - as a bit of a thankyou.

Re: Yorkshire Air Ambulance
Great idea.
We were only discussing yesterday how disgusting it is that the government don't fund air ambulances. Donation made.

Re: Yorkshire Air Ambulance
An excellent suggestion, just to further it more, bikers at Squires did a do for the ambulance not too long ago. A local bikers life was saved due to them, although (i think) he'd suffered paralysis in some degree. The ambulance decended on Squires and was publicised by Richard Hammond on a morning program recently...
We attended the' perverts in leather' rally a couple of years ago and a lot of proceeds went to the local air ambulance in Derby, perhaps if there were a lot of attendees, we could get a collection at the AR next year and donate then??? perhaps a little difficult, but what would folk think to that? Or donate to the local one to the AR??
