Well done – you’ve raised over £8,000 for North West Air Ambulance charity!

January 6th, 2025 • By: Chairman • Aintree, Events, News, sprint, trackdays, Uncategorized

Thank You!

By adding a donation to your entry fee for our events at Aintree, plus the raffle held at our annual awards ‘do’ in November, we have passed on to the North West Air Ambulance Charity the magnificent sum of £8,000 over the past few years. (We send the full amount of your donations, the Club covers all payment charges.)

The charity is funded entirely by donations and doesn’t receive any financial support from the government or local authorities. It is extremely grateful to have received your donations.

Here’s a note of thanks from the Charity regional fundraiser:-

December 2024
Dear John and everyone at Liverpool Motor Club,

I wanted to personally thank you and everyone at the Liverpool Motor Club for your incredible ongoing support. With your latest fundraising efforts for 2024 (£1,225), you’ve helped raise an astounding total of £8,175 for your local air ambulance. This generosity allows us to continue flying to save lives across the North West region, 365 days a year.
Because of you all, the North West Air Ambulance Charity is able to fly the most advanced medical crew and equipment to people when and where they need it the most. In 2023, we responded to 406 incidents in Merseyside alone. We bring the hospital to the patient and can provide surgical interventions, blood transfusions, and deliver lifesaving procedures at the roadside to increase the chance of survival and make a lifesaving difference.

Many people in the North West would not be here today without the North West Air Ambulance Charity, and we are only here because of people like you. We receive no government or NHS funding to carry out the vital life-saving work that we do, and we must raise over £18m to operate and attend the 3,000 incidents we are called to each year.
On behalf of our crew, and the patients whose lives you’ve helped save — thank you. Your support is truly invaluable.
Best wishes,
Rhianna McDermott
Regional Fundraiser

Followed by
A selection of Motorsport tales from Jonathan Toulmin
To say that Jonathan has been involved with motorsport for many years is an understatement! His CV includes competing in the British Sprint Championship, competing in MCC trials in his MGTA Cream Cracker and more recently in a Suzuki X90, being Competition Secretary for the Hillclimb & Sprint Association, and…….. well, you’ll have to come along to hear him speak to find out what else he’s done!

We shall also be presenting our Speed Championship Awards and, of course, there will be the opportunity for lots of friendly chat without the pressure of a motorsport event.
All this in the most pleasant atmosphere of the refurbished Woolton Golf Club,

We hope you will be able to join us for this superb event. (Non-members are welcome)
