Charity of the Year
Make us your Charity of the Year and we’ll make it a year to remember.
By nominating Wales Air Ambulance as your Charity of the Year you are able to show your customers and the community that you’re dedicated to helping a charity who save lives on a daily basis throughout Wales.
This is a fantastic way to unite your staff and to promote staff wellbeing – by getting behind a worthwhile cause that they feel a close connection with. Our community coordinators will work with you to share fundraising ideas, to support you and to help meet your goals. They can advise your employees on how they can get involved whether it be through organising an event, volunteering or fundraising.
Working with us is a great way to build media coverage, especially if you become a long-term partner. Through promoting your fundraising targets and achievement you boost staff morale, save lives, and increase brand awareness.
Let’s make it a year to remember!
