Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance is an independent charity that relies entirely on donations, fundraising, and community support. Operating 365 days a year and on call for up to 19 hours a day, their service highlights just how vital every contribution is. They deliver advanced medical treatment via helicopter and rapid response vehicles across Wiltshire, Bath and surrounding areas.
Their dedicated crew includes highly trained critical care paramedics and doctors who can provide life-saving treatment at the scene. NovaCast has had the privilege of seeing this first hand by visiting their airbase in Semington, Trowbridge last year, where we were able to learn just how impactful their work is.
Over the past eight years, NovaCast has been a proud financial supporter of the vital work carried out by Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance. This month, NovaCast’s team closed the office for the day to attend Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance’s Charity Race Day at Bath Racecourse. This marked NovaCast’s second consecutive year supporting this fantastic event, which raises vital funds to help the charity continue providing lifesaving emergency care across the region.
The day was a great opportunity for the team to enjoy the racing, spend time together out of the office, and meet the dedicated Wiltshire and Bath air ambulance team, learning more about the invaluable work they carry out within the local community. One of the highlights of the day was being given the privilege of judging and selecting the Best Dressed Horse, giving our team the chance to play a small part in the event itself. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day, and we are proud to continue supporting such an important local charity.
