To mark National Air Ambulance Week, volunteers and staff from Essex & Herts Air Ambualance (EHAAT) will be at venues across Stevenage and North Herts to raise awareness and collect donations.

This annual initiative, which will run from September 9 to September 15, sees air ambulance charities from Scotland to Cornwall working together to publicise their work and raise funds.

Head of fundraising at EHAAT Jon Rodriguez said: "We bring the hospital to the patient, but we couldn't do it without our amazing supporters.

"National Air Ambulance Week is a fantastic opportunity for us to talk to people in the community about how their donation really does make a difference to our work."

Representatives will be at Stevenage's Asda store next Saturday, September 14, and Balstock Festival in Baldock on September 13, 14 and 15.
