Emma Wood, head of fundraising and engagement for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, said: “We are incredibly lucky to be supported by so many amazing community fundraisers and donors across the six counties we cover.

“Without those special local supporters in the communities we serve, we would simply not be able to operate our lifesaving pre-hospital emergency service. The public vote for this particular award highlights the generous support we receive from individuals and community groups, and helps select one winner out of the twelve amazing and deserving nominees – something which is an incredibly difficult task.”
