Once you have decided to support London’s Air Ambulance, please get in touch with our community team to let them know what you have planned, and find out what support we can offer. As well as advice and fundraising materials, we can also arrange for a speaker to give a talk at assembly or lunchtime, to help you and your students learn more about our life-saving work.
Get in touch with the team by emailing community@londonsairambulance.org.uk or call 020 3023 3300.
The money raised by your school could help London’s Air Ambulance to buy medical equipment, helicopter fuel or even pay for a mission to save someone’s life.
Community story: Abercorn School
Schools fundraising is not only a brilliant way to raise money for our charity, but also provides young people with a great opportunity to support their community and learn more about our work. One school that has risen to the challenge is Abercorn, who have raised over £3400 so far to help our life-saving service.
