In 2022, The Brabners Foundation donated £4,600 to North West Air Ambulance — a charity that provides enhanced pre-hospital care to the most critically ill & injured patients.
Critical emergency response
North West Air Ambulance receives no government or NHS funding — it’s completely reliant on donations and needs to raise £12 million every year to keep flying.
It’s active 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and undertakes almost 1,400 missions annually, the most common of which are road traffic collisions.
North West Air Ambulance’s impact
Our donation has gone a small way to support the air ambulance’s life-saving missions across the North West.
The crew for each mission contains a pilot, a doctor and a paramedic, who work together to bring the hospital to the patient and deliver major trauma care.
