Midlands Air Ambulance launches £3,000 summer raffle
Tickets cost £1 each and fund the charity’s helicopters and critical care cars, with 17 additional cash prizes available.
Midlands Air Ambulance Charity launched its Summer Raffle to mark 35 years of service, offering a top prize of £3,000 and 17 additional cash prizes starting from £25.
Since 1991, the charity has responded to more than 80,000 missions, operating without government funding and relying entirely on community support for daily operations.
Each £1 ticket purchase enters participants into the raffle for a chance to win cash prizes. Emma Wood, head of fundraising at the charity, said "every £1 ticket purchased really will help save lives."
Online ticket sales close Thursday, July 16, 2026, before the prize draw on Monday, July 20, 2026; entrants must be aged 18 or over to participate.
Funds raised help keep helicopters and critical care cars operational across Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, and the West Midlands.
