The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance needs £3,000 a day to keep its Helicopter and highly trained crew in the air.
As a charity, the service relies solely on the generosity of individuals and organisations to help it continue its life-saving work.
Airborne within three minutes of a 999 call, the Air Ambulance can reach most of its operational area within fifteen minutes.
It needs an area only an area half the size of a tennis court to be able to land.
It can transport patients to the appropriate hospital for their needs - being able to do this will make the difference between life and death for many patients.

| Mobile - How much is yours worth? |
You can help this vital service and raise money for the charity by recycling your unwanted mobile phones.
It is easy to recycle your mobile phone, just place it in an envelope and send by Freepost to Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, Freepost London 16281, London, WC1N 3BR - No stamps needed!
Each recycled phone has a value, however some newer models are worth much more. For example, a Nokia 6230i is worth £15 to the charity.
You can also recycle your textiles - for more information on your nearest textile bank and how to help the Air Ambulance visit www.bagitup.org.uk.
