Devon Air Ambulance gets help to ‘build’ for the future

Builders merchant announce Devon Air Ambulance as chosen charity

RGB Building Supplies is delighted to announce it has selected Devon Air Ambulance Trust (DAAT) as its chosen charity and will be organising various fundraising events. 

In 2018, DAAT assisted 1,102 patients, which included 162 in the Exeter and East Devon area. Having been established in 1992 the Trust has grown considerably and now runs two aircraft, which since the beginning of the year operate until 2am every day. 

As the aircrafts carry equipment that is not always available on land ambulances, DAAT’s doctors and paramedics are able to offer enhanced clinical care to patients. 

Tracy Owen, Fundraising Manager at Devon Air Ambulance Trust, commented: “We would like to thank RGB for choosing to support Devon Air Ambulance and we’re looking forward to working with them and their staff.  Support from businesses just like RGB really does make a huge difference in helping to save and improve the lives of our patients.”
