Wales Air Ambulance were our Official Charity Partner over the weekend as the Under-16s and Under-15s competition concluded on Saturday, May 13 with the Under-12, Under-13s and Under-14s finals on Sunday, May 14.
The Wales Air Ambulance Charity is funded by the people of Wales. They operate some of the most advanced air ambulances in the UK, saving precious time and lives – all thanks to the people of Wales. The charity relies entirely on charitable donations to raise £8 million every year to keep the helicopters in the air and rapid response vehicles on the road across Wales.
The Charity was formed on St. David’s Day, 1 March 2001 and operates from bases across Wales. Wales Air Ambulance offers advanced critical care and is often described as a ‘Flying ED’. The on-board consultants and critical care practitioners are highly skilled and carry some of the most pioneering medical equipment in the world. They can deliver blood transfusions, administer anaesthesia and undertake emergency operations at the scene of the incident, before flying the patient directly to specialist care.
The Charity has completed over 43,000 missions and is on standby 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. They are there for the people of Wales - whenever and wherever they are needed.
