Celebrating the launch of ‘SCAA Week’
As we continue to come to terms with how the Covid 19 pandemic has impacted our lives, we’re now taking the first tentative steps to get out more and enjoy the spring and summer period. Here at SCAA, as we continue to provide our life-saving services all over Scotland, our own thoughts are turning to restarting our community events, talks and tours of our bases.
Saturday 22 May marks our 8-year anniversary of serving the people of Scotland, 365 days of the year through our life-saving service. Since our launch in 2013, we’ve responded to almost 3000 call outs all over Scotland, providing a vital lifeline to communities all over the country. It’s only with your support that we’ve been able to be there for so many people in their time of need.
To properly celebrate our 8th birthday, we will be launching ‘Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance Week’, starting Monday 17 May.
During SCAA Week, we will be sharing stories from our patients and supporters and providing an insight into our work through the eyes of our life-saving air ambulance crews. There will be opportunities to ask questions, send us messages of support, get involved in fundraising and to watch some fantastic videos.
Central to SCAA Week this year is our 8th Birthday Appeal which we’ve recently launched. We want to celebrate 8-years of service with you, and everyone else that has supported us, through this appeal via birthday messages of support and donations from those able to contribute. Together, with your support, we are aiming to raise enough funds for 25 life-saving call outs.
If you value the work we do, and have the means to support us, please consider donating to our 8th birthday appeal alongside a birthday message. Our paramedics, pilots and charity staff sincerely appreciate the messages we receive from our supporters.
Your generosity will ensure that the people of Scotland will continue to have access to our life-saving service today and long into the future.
We look forward to developing and growing SCAA Week with you over the coming years, but for now, stop by our Facebook page next week as we celebrate 8-years of Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance.
