We were delighted to welcome members of the Cornwallis East Kent Masons to our Redhill base recently.

After hearing about the rise in aviation fuel costs, lodges across East Kent came together to raise vital funds in support of our lifesaving service.

Cornwallis Masons then generously match funded the amount raised. Together, they donated an incredible £9,430! 🎉

Thank you to everyone involved for your dedication and generosity. Your support helps to keep us flying and saving lives across our communities 🚁
