Air ambulance helicopter will be the star of summer ball in trust's hangar


THE Cornwall Air Ambulance's headquarters is to be transformed into a glitzy ballroom and casino for this year's summer event.

Tickets have gone on sale for the summer ball, which is being held in the hangar at the charity's headquarters at Newquay Airport on July 27. Guests will be able to dance the night away airside with the helicopter itself as a backdrop. Fundraising co-ordinator Tom Matthews said: It's great being able to use our hangar for events such as this. It's a unique space that we'll make look absolutely stunning.

We're inviting people to join us for an evening of great food, live entertainment, a casino and an auction with some unique prizes.

Maybe you'd like to spoil someone in your life or get together with a few friends and make a night of it; whatever the reason, we'd love to see you there and we can guarantee a great night.

Guests will also be able to find out more about the charity's work and even win a dinner with the aircrew.

Earlier this year the charity announced a new helicopter contract, due to start at the end of 2014, significantly increasing the number of missions it can fly.

Chief executive Paula Martin said: Being such a vital emergency service, it's very easy to forget that we're a charity 100 per cent funded thanks to the generosity of the general public. People are often shocked to find out we don't receive money from central or local government and that without the public and businesses supporting us we simply wouldn't be here.

The summer ball is a great excuse to celebrate the service, dress to the nines and have a ball. Tickets and tables can be booked at www.cornwallairambulancetrust.org
