After his mum was treated by our crew, ten year old Charlie was determined to give back to the service that cared for her. Cycling 19 miles from his home to the John Radcliffe Hospital, and raising £1,170, Charlie has earned his spot as this week's #FridayFundraiser. ❤️🚁

In 2023, our crew attended 411 road traffic collisions - that's at least one major incident on our roads every single day. This #RoadVicitmMonth, our thoughts are with those who have been victims of road traffic collisions, as well as those who have lost loved ones.❤️

Held in memory of Matthew, whose passion for classic cars inspired his family and friends to bring together a community of car lovers, the Chalgrove Classic Car Show was a huge success. A touching tribute to a loved one which raised £1,780 for @tvairamb ❤️🚁 #FridayFundraiser

🚨 1,077 call outs ⏱️ 569 hours spent in flight To mark #WorldHelicopterDay, we thought we'd share the impact G-TVLY has had since it first took to the skies in October 2022. Every lifesaving mission by helicopter is fully funded by your donations, thank you. 🚁

Talk about going the distance! 🏃‍♀️ After Stephanie was helped by our crew, she took on a 43-mile relay along with 35 of her amazing friends and family. Using a helicopter mascot as their baton, this incredible group raised over £7,000 for our charity. #FridayFundraiser 🚁

While many of us will be enjoying a long #BankHolidayWeekend, our crew will be on call as usual from 7am - 2am, ready to treat patients in need of urgent critical care. We hope you never need our services but, if you do, we're here for you. 🚁⚕️

They say laughter is the best medicine - and in this case, it literally helps fund lifesaving care! Our incredible partners at Cleenol Group | Certified B Corp are bringing the spirit of #EdinburghFringe to Chipping Norton on September 14th — and it's all in support of charity! 🚁

For Critical Care Paramedics Hannah and Emma, their ‘finish line’ is normally reaching a patient’s side. But they’re trading their trauma kit for their trainers as part of an all-female team of paramedics and doctors who are taking on the Great Run 👉 bit.ly/4dLWQtA

Imagine dropping out of the sky at over 120mph! Well, this week's #FridayFundraiser goes out to our skydiving supporters who bravely jumped from over 10,000ft doing exactly that! The group, including Emily (pictured), raised £2,805 for @tvairambulance on #WorldHelicopterDay! 🎉

Over 1 in 3 people don't know that we're a #charity. It costs £3,950 to send our helicopter on each mission, and we're dispatched an average of nine times a day. Help to spread the word. RT this post today, and take the first step to save a life, tomorrow. #AirAmbulanceWeek
