NSMS Supporting GWAAC
The club recently collected and donated £400 to the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity where the money has been raised at the annual show. Did you know that the average cost of a call out is £2200 ? Several of our members have benefited from this service and we look forward to working again with GWAAC. Club members were invited up to the base at Almondsbury for the presentation and enjoyed a tour of the facility
