This month, we're shining a spotlight on our amazing volunteer, Olwen! 👏

Olwen has been a volunteer since October 2022 and has dedicated an incredible 936 hours to supporting our charity - that's the equivalent of around 117 working days!

Based in Carlisle, Olwen helps manage collection boxes across Carlisle and the surrounding areas, as well as supporting us at fundraising events, bucket collections and stalls.

She's also someone we can always count on to take the lead, helping to represent us at collections and events independently and freeing up our fundraising team to focus their time elsewhere - or even enjoy a well-earned weekend off!

Most recently, Olwen stepped in to cover three bucket collections while our fundraiser Deborah was away in the Isle of Man, at the TT Races. It's just one example of the incredible support she gives our team!

We're so grateful for everything Olwen does 💚

Bank holiday checklist:
✅ Lie-in
✅ Cup of tea
✅ Ignore the DIY you've been putting off
✅ Write your Will 👀

Okay, maybe that last one isn't the obvious choice...

But getting your Will sorted can give you peace of mind that your wishes are clear for the future, and it can be an opportunity to leave a lasting gift to a cause close to your heart 💚

With our free Will-writing service through Farewill, it's simple, stress-free and can be done in as little as 30 minutes.

30 minutes now = one very important job ticked off.

Love lives on through every mission... 🚁

There are many ways to honour someone special, and giving in memory is one of the most meaningful.

Each donation helps support our critical care teams as they reach patients in their most urgent moments. It's a powerful way to ensure a loved one's legacy continues far beyond their lifetime, helping make a difference for others long into the future.

Because every life remembered could help save another 💚

On Tuesday our critical care team was activated at 4.25pm to reports of a sport and leisure incident on Grains Gill.

We had a paramedic and doctor on board our aircraft and they arrived on scene at 4.56pm.

They worked alongside the North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust and Keswick Mountain Rescue Team to assess and treat a patient.

The patient was airlifted to hospital in 14 minutes.

Every mission is only possible thanks to your support. By playing our SOS Raffle, you're helping us be there for people in their moment of need, and you could even win £10,000.

When you turn up somewhere and the local residents immediately want a word… 🐄👀

"Sorry, but this is our field. You can't just moooove in! You'll have to find some udder place to land."

Safe to say, Pilot Antony had a rather curious audience 😂
