Bring Hope this Christmas

Irish Community Air Ambulance is on a mission to bring Hope this Christmas

“It’s the best sound on earth”. The words spoken by Mary, one of the over 450 people that we have helped this year. Mary from West Cork suffered a major traumatic injury earlier this year. Living many miles from the nearest Trauma Centre Mary was worried that she mightn’t get the help that she needed in time. Thankfully with the support of our donors and supporters we were able to respond. Within 4 minutes our pilot and the medical team were airborne and on our way to help. We reached Mary in 20 minutes and following treatment at scene Mary was then airlifted by our charity funded Air Ambulance to the nearest Trauma Centre in Cork. A journey that could take over two hours by road took just 30 minutes by air. Mary visited us at the base recently and is making a good recovery and is in no doubt that her rapid transfer to hospital not only saved her life but improved her chances of making a better recovery.

Irish Community Air Ambulance is a mission driven organisation. Our mission is ‘To Bring Hope’, To Bring Hope when time is critical, to bring hope to someone who is many miles from the nearest hospital. To Bring Hope to someone who is worried that they may not get the help that they or a loved one needs in time.

This Christmas period, while many of us spend time with our family, friends and loved ones the crew of the charity funded Air Ambulance will spend time away from their families so that they can respond to someone in need of emergency medical care.

Join us on our mission this Christmas and help us to Bring Hope.

Please consider Irish Community Air Ambulance as the charity to benefi t from your generosity this Christmas in the knowledge that you will be helping us to save lives so that for many, this won’t be their last Christmas.
