Regardless of your situation, - whether you can afford a donation but not the time, or have a few hours to spare, or are thinking about becoming involved in charity work, there are plenty of ways that you can help keep the Herts Air Ambulance flying.
Make a Donation
A simple and effective way to help. A regular or one-off donation of a few pounds is invaluable. Simply visit our Donate section.
Don't forget that, if you are a UK tax payer, for every £1 you donate the Charity can reclaim 28p from the Inland Revenue through the Gift Aid scheme. All you have to do is complete our Gift Aid Declaration form.
Join the Flight for Life Lottery Weekly Draw & Superdraw!
If you are not already a member, this is a great way to make a regular donation. You pay just a £1 per week and this entitles you to be entered into a Weekly Draw for a top prize of £1,000! For an additional £1 per week you can join the Superdraw and be in with a chance of winning up to £25,000! Becoming a member is easy and your donation can be made by cheque, or credit/debit card. You can even play the Flight for Life Lottery via Direct Debit.
Host a Fundraising Event
Whether it's a boogie night, a Christmas fete or a summer ball, hosting a fundraising event is a fantastic way to help raise funds for the Herts Air Ambulance. Put the 'fun' into fundraising and help raise awareness of the County's emergency helicopter. If you are thinking of hosting an event and would like some help simply complete our Fundraising Event Request Form and we will be in touch shortly.

Volunteer
Talks and presentations, tin collecting, promotional distributions, event assistance…. We need dedicated volunteers to help keep the Air Ambulance flying.
Donate through your salary
This is known as Payroll Giving and is a hassle-free and tax efficient way of giving directly from your salary. It could not be easier; your donation is simply deducted from your monthly earnings before tax, which means your gift is worth more because the money you would have given to the Inland Revenue goes to the Charity instead. For example, if you choose to donate £10 a month through Payroll Giving and you are a 22% tax payer, it will only cost you £7.80; the Inland Revenue provides the rest, topping up the amount to £10.
Get Sponsored!
Why not parachute out of a plane, abseil down a skyscraper or do something a little more down to earth? Whatever the activity, you can raise funds by being sponsored. Remember, sponsor donations incorporate the Gift Aid scheme. Visit www.justgiving.com the easiest way to fundraise and get sponsorship online.

Remember us in your Will
