North West Air Ambulance Charity calls on locals to have a brew for their crew

The charity, which is not part of the NHS and receives no government funding, attended 3,100 callouts last year, an increase of nearly 300, with more than 400 taking place across Merseyside.

Last year the ‘Brew For The Crew’ campaign raised over £10,000 for the North West Air Ambulance Charity and saw people from all over the North West come together to support the lifesaving charity.

This year, the North-West-based charity, which is celebrating its 25^th Birthday, is asking the public to help them raise funds by hosting a Brew for The Crew during its birthday month in May.

Brew for the Crew is the charity’s annual fundraiser in which community groups, businesses and families can gather their crew, have a brew and raise some cash to ensure that the charity can continue with its lifesaving work. 

Emma Pearson, Fundraising Manager said:

“Every mission that the crew attend, costs on average £4,500, which is funded by the generosity of people taking part in activities like Brew for the Crew. 

“2023 was our busiest year on record and so we need to ensure that we raise enough funds this year so that our crew can continue to be there for people across the North West when they need them most.”
