25 ways
It’s been 25 years since we launched our service, and a lot has changed since then. One thing that has stayed the same is the unwavering support from our community.
If you feel like giving us a boost this year, you might be surprised at all the ways you can get involved. Check out our list below for some inspiration.
Join our online community and get the latest news and events direct to your inbox each month.
Sometimes the simplest way to help is with a one-off donation. Whether it’s a little or a lot, every penny means we can be there for people in your community when they need us most.
For just £5 a month, you could be in with a chance to win up to £1,000 every week. You’ve got to be in it, to win it.
We need your help to raise awareness of our lifesaving work. You can be a charity champion, whether you choose to engage with our social media posts or do it the old-fashioned way and tell a friend about us.
Thanks to the 700 locations across our community who host a collection tin for us, you’re bound to see one while you’re out and about. It’s amazing how those spare coins add up!
Become one of our amazing volunteers. Whether you can spare time to help at fundraising events, provide admin support, or even get involved with public speaking, there are opportunities across the charity.
Your one-stop shop for everything you need to know about our charity.
If you want to see behind the scenes pictures of our crew, as well as all the latest goings on, you can check us out on Facebook, Instagram, X (formally Twitter) and LinkedIn.
We love to see what you’re up to! If you have a great picture to share, please tag us on social media.
Achieve your goal, while helping us to reach ours. We have an event to challenge you, whether you want to walk, run, cycle or even skydive.
Monthly or yearly gifts make a huge difference to us when we’re looking ahead.
With over 90 clothes and textile recycling banks across our community, there’s sure to be one near you. We’ve raised over £1 million so far from textile recycling.
Who says fundraising can’t be fun? Raise money, while doing something you love. Bake up a storm with a cake sale, host a quiz night, or kick off a football tournament.
Our eye-catching posters need you! Shops, churches, or community hubs are great places to display information about our events.
Our patients need your support now and in the future. You could leave a legacy of life, love and learning with a gift in your Will.
Did you know you can support us while you shop? With over 7,400 brands included, Easy Fundraising donates to our charity while you shop online, at no extra cost to you.
Ask your employer about choosing us a charity partner. We can offer lots of ideas to bring employees together for a vital cause.
Help us raise money while enjoying a fun day out. There’s lots going on throughout the year, from colour runs to choir performances.
Got a big celebration coming up? For birthdays, wedding receptions or anniversary parties, asking for charity donations rather than gifts is a lovely idea.
Ask your company about Payroll Giving. It’s the easiest, most tax-efficient way for your company and employees to support our charity.
Does your local school or community group raise money for a particular charity each year? In our 25th year choose Thames Valley Air Ambulance and help us be there for patients who need us most.
Inspire your kids to fundraise with a walk, car boot sale, or even a sponsored silence! Get your whole family involved and help them to feel good about giving.
Mark the life of someone special by donating in their name, setting up a tribute fund or having a collection at their funeral.
We run three raffles a year, in spring, summer and at Christmas. Every ticket bought makes a difference, plus you could win £2,500!
Finally, we’d love it if you could join us on 22nd June at Penn Estate to help us celebrate our 25th year of saving lives
