As part of our Up Against Time appeal to replace our two helicopters by autumn 2024, volunteers and supporters of London’s Air Ambulance Charity will be taking to the streets in our annual ‘Big City Collection' this month.
Our 2022 campaign raised over £14,000 and this year we hope our generous supporters will help us smash this target!
At the end of September, we will be out and about in London, at train and tube stations, sporting events and local shopping outlets, raising vital funds for the appeal. Please see below for the list of locations. You can also follow our Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram pages for updates throughout the week.
